To My Fellow Classmates: , lil' ' Q il Til Ali if Class Message l am sure you can all recall the fine football team we had this year What made this team such an outstanding one? Well, most of all it was teamwork. Team- work is necessary for any objective that you wish to obtain in life. When we graduate, we shall be splitting up a team. Together over the past three years, this class has made a record that will long be remembered by all. But don't think that because of graduation the teamwork is over. For after graduation we will all be joining new teams that require even more teamwork to keep them operating smoothly. l hope that we have all received a strong foundation and have learned how to co-operate with others for good team spirit, a spirit which I trust will make our lives more joyful and complete. Class President of '57 Council Message Commencement, as the word implies, is a beginning, not an ending. We are leaving the place that has played a major role in our lives during the past three years, and shall be saying goodbye to people whom we will not be seeing for a long time. Aside from that, commencement is our first big push into adulthood. It is a time when we start to realize the responsibilities that must be faced in order to grow up. lt is a time of deep thought and pleasant reminiscence. Some of us will go to college, others will find a job, still others will join the service. Beyond that there may be marriage, a family to raise, and a career to pursue. Let us never forget the rich happiness, the bonding friendship, the fine training, and the rewarding school life that we have experienced at Haverford. Remember that these things have laid a firm foundation for us in any future undertaking. lf these fond memories always remain in our hearts, they will not only enrich our lives, but they will also guide us as we travel over life's unpredictable highway.
