Without the constant guidance of our school committee, we could never have built so solid a foundation upon which to base our future. We have pictured them here as the actual plans which are so vital to our success in high school. It is to this committee that we owe our sincere grati- tude for laying the plans of the first lap of our journey in life. . To William B. Appleton, our Superin- tendent, we wish to express our thanks. His expert planning and counseling proves that he places our welfare before his own. His keen sense of humor and countless anecdotes have kept us amused at past assemblies and graduations. Surely we have been fortunate to have such able and willing assistance in our many successful projects throughout our high school years.

OUR THEME If you were to look through this book without first knowing the purpose of it, you might wonder at the sanity of those who put it together because you would find odd titles and perplexing art work, all part of the theme which helps to unify the book. We have been working and socializing together for the past three years to prepare ourselves for the world beyond the protecting arm of the class room. To summarize it briefly, we have been “building for our future”. To represent this idea in a concrete fashiqn we have compared ourselves to an actual construction company. The School Committee have laid the plans for the project; our principal is the corner stone from which everything develops. The teachers are the Executive Suite to guide us and to see that we are on the right track. Our classmates are the workers and we have officers or foremen to organize us. When we graduate, the job will be done and it will be time to start on another one as we work our way down Life’s road.

OUR CORNERSTONE During your years at Leominster High you have often heard it said that you are the citizens of tomorrow. Somehow that did not have much meaning to you as sophomores, juniors, and during much of your senior year. Suddenly you find yourselves high school graduates who are no longer able to lean on your teachers for assistance. Many of your problems must be solved by you, and how you handle these problems will show how well you handled the education that was available to you in the past twelve years. Remember, the education that you have received is merely a key which is to be used by you to open doors of opportunity. The future of our country is in the hands of you people. May you use the education that you have to good advantage so that we will continue to flourish in a free America. SJ keodsu Hecetiarete
