X WITH GRATITUDE AND APPRE- CIATION, we the Class of 1960, acknowl- edge the willing aid and understanding guidance of William A. Dexter. All the world's a stage and all the men and women merely players. This is an apt phrase forthe theme of the 1960 Yearbook, quoted from the works of a great scholar. Players you will be on the stage of life. Some of you will take the leading parts. Many of you will be the technicians behind the scenes who, by your technology and knowledge of sound and lighting effects, will add realism to the performance. There will be some of you who, by your talent and genius, will create the play, produce and direct the production. Others will have a small bit to play and possibly will not be noticed by the audience, nor make headlines. For the past twelve years you have been rehearsing your parts and improving your skills, but for most of you the opening night and even the dress rehearsal lie four years or-more beyond. The final days of rehearsal will be more arduous than the first, but if you have learned your parts wel1,yours will be the satisfaction of a smash hit and a very successful season. To you who will soon be- come players on the great world's stage, I offer the words of Iames Russell Lowell's Inspiration for Living : Life is a leaf of paper white Whereon each one of us may write His word or two, and then comes night, ' Greatly begin! Tho' thou hast time fl But for a line, be that sublime! y S Not failure, but low aim, is crime. WILLIAM A. DEXTE Director of Guidance l 5
