'Dedicatees, As we who are graduating step out into the world of adults, we find it in a condition considered by many to be almost hopeless. Perhaps the world has always seemed a little hopeless, but it has survived. It has survived through men who still possessed the qualities of honesty, courage, diligence, loyalty, tolerance, and sympathy, the qualities that make for great men in the true sense of the word. Such men are not dead now, though most of the world fears they are. There is still a group of people who hold uncompromising faith in the virtues of men, who believe that ultimately the finer human qualities will triumph over the baser, who feel that if fortune gives us a bad break now it will be kinder in the future, and to these optimists in a world of pessimists we dedicate this book.

 This yeor the Senior closs received much pleosure ond sotisfoction from the adoption of a Greek school boy, Petros Gournoris. Petros is the youngest in o family of four children. Before the war they led a comfortable, happy life in the district of Fiorina, where his father hod a grocery store. In 1949 Fiorina was boseigcd by rebels. Small boys ond girls tried to help by carrying stretchers and helping the wounded, but the rebels began to kidnap them, so along with other Greek children, Petros ond his brother, Alexandros, went to a children's camp. In 1947 Petros' father was executed, his shop looted, and his family left destitute. Petros' mother has miocarditis ond cannot work. His sister, Anastassia, cares for the fomily while his brother, Loukas, sells candy. He earns very little and there are no relatives so the fomily is hungry most of the time. The Seniors have given $ 180 to support Petros for a year. Parcels of food ond clothing ore sent to him from the Foster Parents' Plan for War Children, Inc. Our money also fakes care of his medical care and schooling which is not free in Greece. We sent a box of clothing ond other gifts to Petros for Christmas and for his birthday. Through his letters to us we Iearn of his activities and his thankfulness. We hove been very happy to have had a part in making a success of the life of a little boy mode destitute by the war.
