sy way ot retrospect it is the late summer of 1938. A coolly impersonal structure, to be dedi¬ cated as Leicester High School, dots the landscape overlooking the Common. ' 1 ( - That was 1938. Twenty-two years later and what a change has been wrought. The inanimate shell of the architect has been brought to life almost visibly. The halls have now echoed the laughter of the students while the classrooms have radiated each teacher ' s personality. Not to be . forgotten either are the days when the quadrangle rang with enthusiastic cheers from the pep . rallies. Yet progress is advancement and a new building awaits us in 1961. However, we, as the final graduating class, cannot let this occasion pass without a fitting farewell to Leicester High (1938-1960). That is why we have set aside these two pages as tribute to her for the inestimable good that she has done these past twenty-two years.
