Dr. Robert E. Cox Headmaster HEADMASTER'S MESSAGE TO THE CLASS OF 1973 As I sit writing this note in late November, your class rides a crest of good will and fellowship which ren- ders the Whole world your own special playground. And yet, by the time you receive this edition of The Log, some of you will already be looking beyond the group and dreaming of new worlds on other campuses. A year from now you may well iind it dif- ficult to recreate the deeply personal feelings you shared with your classmates at the Arva in October of your senior year. You may even wonder whether your little Camelot ever existed. Well, class of '73, it did exist! You put it all together and, for at least a little time, you conjured up a magic spell that normally blesses only the very young and innocent or the very old and wise. You have spelled life as capital LOVE and have found contentment and fulfillment in friends, surprise birthday parties, all night talk-ins, and silly notes to snoobies on the blackboard. You are right now reliving days de- scribed by Wordsworth a century and a half ago: There was a time when meadow, grove, and stream, The earth, and every common sight, To me did seem Apparelled in celestial light, The glory and freshness of a dream. Seeing people happily sharing themselves, sharing joys and silent secrets and a thousand little kind- nesses-seeing this in my iirst senior class at the Academy has been great. Indeed, I thank you for what you have given me this year. For you have repeatedly renewed my sometimes failing faith in this school as the chance to learn that joy really does belong in education and in life. We have prepared you well for the academic tasks ahead. If the Academy has helped you discover the beauty of order and reason, we have done even bet- ter. But above all else, it is my fervent prayer that you, my iirst class here, may keep alive that glowing spark of love and understanding for others you share at this moment. Nourish it and think of it as your greatest memory of Hampton Roads Academy. Bless you -all!
