OUI' l From the Terrace A school spirit as never before revealed itself throughout the year, particularly during the football season. After a losing streak of 25 games, Sam Glasser drove three yards to lead the Rams to victory over Cheltenham, 6 to O, on October 27, l96l. It was a day that will never be forgotten by those who attended. The year saw the start of the Corinthian, a new literary publi- cation.

Time is something intangible, yet because of the role it plays at Harriton, he Aurora staffs have chosen it as the theme of this, the i962 Aurora. We have tried to catch the true essence of the times we have had at Harriton and to put this into words and pictures on the following pages. It has been a year of work and of play, of laughter and of sorrow, of victory and of defeat. The opening of Harriton one day early in the fall to introduce the sophomores is expected to become an annual effort to unite Big Brother is watching you Especially to the Harriton seniors, the close of this school year brings many memories of the time which they have spent here. To recall some of these, the Aurora is printing the following letter from a well known personage about our campus. AN OPEN LETTER TO THE CLASS OF 1962 l remember you as shivering sophomores in September 1959, in two months, you had become an integral part of Harriton. I was proud of you when Ken McCloskey was undefeated in cross country running. I shared your joy when Richard Segal was elected school treasurer, and Muff Watt became sergeant at arms. Time passed quickly, and the new year arrived. With the change of buildings and year, you became a dynamic class led by Practice makes perfect? 6
