SUPERINTENDENT’S MESSAGE Mr. Charles E. Downs Life is made of many days; some of them last for several years. They are born in the faintest trace of light showing its fragile head beyond an imaginary line. They grow stronger with the passing of seconds until suddenly it is noon; suddenly the day is full. And then, more gradually it declines toward its end. But the end is not feeble as the beginning for the day has done its work. This book is a story of one of those days, the record of the activities, friendships, and achievements of the first graduating class of the Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School. Whereas the light at the beginning was timid and hesitant, the story ends in strength and fire and tints the island with its color. May each of you thumb these pages and recall pleasant memories. However, this history of this class will not be written for many years to come. Each one of you has something imp ' ortant to contribute. Only when each of you has made his contribution will the work of this class be finished. I join with your parents, teachers, and friends in wishing you success and happiness along the roadway of life. 10
