Even as a youngster in grade school, Miss Daly had visions of some day becoming a teacher. This term her teaching program consisted of both English and Physical Education. As a hobby, Miss Daly enjoys reading. Her advice to seniors is to follow the golden rule, '4Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. MR.

gokforia June, 1953 This is our Legend-yours and mine. It is a legend of four wonderful years at Lafayette. It is a symbol of the fulfillment of our ambitious strivings. As young boys and girls entering Lafayette, we were unaware of the legend that was to be ours. But as time passed, every friendship formed, every accomplish- ment, and every hope and ideal created became an integral part of that legend. We weren,t aware of it then, but now, every experience remains as a never-to-be forgotten memory in our Legend. As we look back now, we realize that a substantial foundation for our life's work has been given us during these four years. It is upon this foundation that we must build our lives and our careers. We are now young adults who must face the un- certain future without the guidance and advice of our teachers. But we are equipped! The training which we have received at Lafayette will enable us to deal with the perplexing maze of hopes and fears in life. A pleasant chapter of our lives has ended with this Legend, but a more challeng- ing one will begin. For some, graduation will mean embarkation into the business world. For others, it will mean the continuation of studies in college. For all, it will mean the leaving behind of our childhood and immaturity. Yes, it is with reluctance that we leave our Alma Mater, and, it is with great sorrow that we say our Lafayette legend is over. LOUIS ROTHMAN Editor-in-Chief Eight

GOLDBERG One of the favorite teachers of all students taking secretarial courses is Mrs. Lifton. The star she has set her future goal upon is to have her two daughters mature into fine young ladies. Every- one hopes to have at least three of their wishes become a reality. Mrs. Lifton,s are: world peace, health, and money adequate to enjoy lcisure time. Education need never end with a high school diploma,', is the advice Mrs. Lifton hopes we will remember. j . MR. GOLDSTEIN Ten Mr. Goldberg is an alumnus of the Savage School of Physical Education. His vast personal interests include sports, and the run- ning of a childrenfs camp. He hopes to achieve happiness for his children as well as others, and would like to travel with his family to various parts of the world. For the graduates he stated, I hope the senior class has realized the opportunities and training they have had in high school, so that they may be prepared for college, and, in later life, for being useful citizens. ff' f MRS. LIFTON ' We are proud of Mr. Goldstein, a top member of our science department. He is one of the teachers in Lafayette who thinks all his students are wonderful. He enjoys his work very much. He enjoys music. He plays the violin, clarinet, saxophone, and guitar. He is an expert repairman of radios and television and is also a good tennis and golf player. His advice to the seniors is that they should enjoy their own lives and be considerate of other people around them.
