With you a part of me hath passed away; For in the peopled forest of my mind a tree made leafless by this wintry wind Shall never don again its green array. Chapel and fireside, country road and bay, Have something of their friendliness resigned; Another if I would, I could not find, And I am grown much older in a day. But yet I treasure in my memory Your gift of charity, and young heart’s ease, And the dear honor of your amity; For these once mine, my life is rich with these. And I scarce know which part may greater be what I keep of you, or you rob of me. George Santayana

Edward J. O’Connor Higgins Junior High School PEABODY, MASSACHUSETTS 01960 Principal ' s Message Your 1980 YEARBOOK allows me the opportunity to express my congratulations and best wishes to our ninth graders who are graduating from the Higgins Junior High School this year. You are going to live in an era of continual change. OPEC will be a force so powerful that it will change your way of living in the United States of America. Already the prices of gasoline and fuel oil are rising to ‘he beat of the Arab drummer. In our homes it is colcher beeause of the economic pressure which has been applied to the industrialized West by the oil rich nations of the Middle East. The multi-billion dollar oil cartels are fuel- ing the forces of inflation. We must find the answers to the prob- lems of fuel and inflation in this decade of the Nineteen Eighties. You have had the example of what young people can do collectively and individually when you recall the United States Olympic Hockey Team and the speed skating of Eric Heiden. They accepted almost impossible odds on their way to win the coveted gold medals. So too can all of you collectively and individually overcome the prob- lems and burdens of the Nineteen Eighties. It is difficult to express adequately our sorrow on the loss of two well known staff members who died this year. First we lost Mr. John Arnoldy, a guidance counselor, who always had a deep concern for all the pupils who came under his care. Shortly, after- wards we suffered a second loss with the death of Mrs. Catherine Davidson, who served as a school secretary since the school opened. Finally, u I ty Advisors possible . I would be who have remiss if I didn ' t thank the Staff and Fac- vorked for months to make this YEARBOOK The members of the Higgins faculty join me in extending to the members of the graduating class our best wishes for their future success. c . . bincerely, 2
