TABLE OF CONTENTS SENIORS UNDERCLASSMEN ACTIVITIES SPORTS PATRONS FOREWORD In 1769, John Holyoke entered the deed for Long- meadow upon the records of Springfield, noting that massa-auksic, or great land, was the Indian name for that region. In recognizing our heritage, we have chosen maasa-auksic, or, as the English called it, Masacksic, for the title of our yearbook.

Few classes I have known in the many years I have been teaching in Longmeadow could have so well faced the pioneering situations the Class of 1957 has had to meet. With much of that successfully be- hind you, I believe you are thereby much better prepared for what is ahead of you. Oliver Wendell Holmes, in The Cham- bered Nautilus , has very nicely suggested the thought I have in mind. You might like to read it again. Congratulations on your successes and best wishes as you approach the next big steps before you. jUf- To you, as the first class to graduate from Longmeadow High School, belongs a special place in your school ' s history. This is an honor you have well deserved. Your leadership has been exceptionally fine, and many of your accomplishments will influence the school for years to come. It has been a pleasure and a privilege to have been associated with you. I extend to each of you my warmest wishes for success and happiness in the future. It is said that two things are necessary for real achievement: a clear, fixed pur- pose, a complete idea of what you want to do; and a stern iron-clad resolution to do it, to take the steps, to make the sacrifice, to pay the price. The race for real success is no short dash — it is a marathon. Only the well-trained, long-winded, stout-hearted can win. You have to be a plodding, patient plugger to get there first, or even to get there at all. It is my desire, as you leave Long- meadow High School, that you take as your companions along the road to success SKILL, COURAGE, AMBITION, and ENTERPRISE. Aid , 0- 6 L
