time will continue its endless progression Eighty eight young men have spent years acquiring the knowledge which will be the basis for a higher edu cation and a support in an intricate society Seemingly endless hours of classes, practice and studies as well as long awaited week ends or school events have stimulated and enhanced the intelligence imagina tion, and enthusiasm of each cadet No one can determine the time needed to mold the character of a human being There have been used on the Hill both an intangible and a visible catalyst in the assimilation of the traits found in the wearers of the school ring John McDonogh s ideals have outlined more than one cadet s future while the immaculate McDonogh uniform has been admired and complimented innumerable times McDonogh . The future will reveal those immature or dormant features which haven t yet been fully developed within many seniors while it shall reward those who have proven themselves The tower clock has over looked many graduations, but this class which will pass beneath its arms for the last checkout is as mature balanced and latent a body as McDonogh has or ever will boast But who ever speaks of leaving the Hill? How often is it that Bob or May hears Don t worry, I ll be back and how many don t try to see the Gilman games? Spirit which has carried McDonogh through such an outstanding year will be long remembered by those who saw the big pep rally or the Gilman championship game, those who clamored as the cagers sank the deciding points or our marksmen outscored the demlgods of the rifle range Achievement identifies the merits of a McDonogh graduate, the men who received their diploma on the Child s Memorial have invariably gone on to higher education and success in business The more aggres sive restricted themselves at times in order to become the social and municipal mastheads who hold prom: nent places locally and nationally A modern environ instilled by the staff and facilities of such a prepara tory school, here the time and accommodation factors were nonexistent while comprehension and co ordination were being constantly augmented There can be no mistake made as to the work, sweat, and experimentation used in developing the graduates or their work, but the fruit of these labors shall soon be seen The successful exploitation of these benefits cannot err in ascending any aspirant to the zenith of his desires This testimonial to the efforts and achievements of the Class of 1960 has involved the labor and pa tience in the preparation of such a volume, the re sult is the gratification of having recreated in words and pictures the effort, progress, and success of our graduation class O O 7 i ' 1' 1 1 .
