Il is indeed a pleasure lo be called upon lo speak al lhis reunion. Tvwenly years have passed since our gradualion from high school. Thal was such a memorable year. Remember lhe n-oon ol December 8, I94l, when all ol us slood in lhe audilorium and heard Presidenl Roosevell ask Congress lo declare war? From lhal day on lhe names ol such places as Pearl I-larbor, Guam, Wake, Midway. and Balaan Peninsula were in every-day use. They will always be asso- cialed wilh our lasl year in high school. Time cerlainly has wroughl changes. The Allied Ollensive, launched in Aug- usl ol lhal year, showed who lhe linal viclor would be. Il look unlil lale in I943 lo clean up everylhing. Do you recall lhe peace lrealy ol I944 and ils lerms lhal shook lhe world? l-liller and his order are known lo lhis generalion in hislory books only. Since lhen, lhe scienlisls ol all nalions have worked logelher lor lhe benelil ol humanily. Undreamed-ol progress has been made. ll seems incredible, looking back now, lhal we ever look lime oul lhree limes a day lo eal. One vilamin- capsule in a glass ol waler is now a daily sulliciency. Every high-school pupil drives lo school n-ow lhal new cars cosl as lillle as lS50.00. The newly-developed synlhelic rubber used lor lires never wears oul. Former worries ol lals or blowouls are now unknown. Meriden has undergone lanlaslic changes. This buslling cily ol IO0,000 inhabi- lanls bears lillle resemblance lo lhe Meriden ol I942, as I lasl saw il lhen. ll is highly induslrialized, lhanks lo lhe currenl demand lor airplane parls and plaslics. Three huge airporls al lhe norlh, soulh and easl ends ol lhe cily were made necessary by lhe increase in number ol privalely-owned planes. Advancemenl in recrealional lacililies is noliceable. One ol lhe larger munici- pal recrealional buildings houses lwo swimming pools, lwo roller skaling rinks, an ice-skaling rink, and a dance ll-oor. Two modern high schools have been buill lor lhe 4,000 sludenls. School is in session only lhree days a week, in conlrasl lo lhe live we spenl lhere. Such voca- lional courses as avialion, engineering, leaching, and nursing are ollered. The sludenls lake only lhe subiecls relaled lo lheir vocalion. Each high school covers acres and acres of ground. There is larm land lor experimenlalion in agricullureg a small, well-equipped hospilal lor lulure doclors and nurses. Each school also has a landing lield, hangars, and I4 planes lor avia- lion sludenls. The cily's len elaborale lhealres are well allended, even lhough everyone has his own movie proieclor al home. l can recall when lechnicolor movies were a nov- elly and lhe lhoughl ol smelling lhe lhings piclured on lhe screen was incompre- hensible. Along wilh lhal is lhe memory ol lhe days when a baseball game was heard and nol seen over lhe radio. A lelevision sel was indeed a rarily. ll has been pleasanl visiling wilh you, classmales, and ,comparing lhe old Meriden wilh lhe new. During lhe nexl lvwenly years, lel us hope lhal science will conlinue ils advances in lhe medical and induslrial worlds. lThis is lhe lexl ol Roberla Cooke's speech al a Class Reunion May 25, l962.l 1...o THE ANNUAL - 1942 -0-0-:zz-cz: Hiclcs Essay and Cratorical Contest EiT years ago ' Ty , in ly businessmen, and manuiaci sand dollars wiTh which Tg J- From Mr. Hicks' kindness TesTs.

The TaculTy Then checks This lisT Tor characTer, service, and scholarship. The pupil musT sTand in The upper quarTer OT his class To be eligible. JusT as The keysTOne is used by The builder To hold The arch TOgeTher, so is The sTrucTure OT our educaTion made Tirm and True by The virTues represenTed in The symbol. For This reason The l4eysTone and Tlaming Torch is The emblem OT The NaTional l-lonor SOcieTy. A member wears our emblem noT as a symbol OT whaT he has accomplished buT as a golden spur To urge him ever onward. Leadership exerTs a wholesome inTluence on The school. A real leader should sTrive To Train and aid OThers To aTTain The highesT obiecTives. The price OT leader- ship is sacriTice, The willingness To yield one's personal inTeresT Tor The inTeresTs OT OThers. No maTTer whaT power and resources may exisT in a counTry, They are in- eTTecTual wiThouT The guidance OT a wise leader. Service may loe expressed in The rouTine OT our day's work. Willingness To work wiThOuT glory Tor The happiness and eTTiciency OT bOTh pupils and Teachers is True service. Especially in These Trying Times The world needs persons who will render Their service unselTishly. CharacTer is achieved, noT received. lT gives a person individualiTy and per- sOnaliTy. Good characTer arises Trom high ideals, clean living, and clean Thinlcing. This is The power ThaT makes men Tamous, because in The end They are iudged by whaT They are more Than by whaT They have done. Scholarship means a love OT learning. Knowledge is boTh necessary and use- Tulp iT can be acquired in only one wiay, and ThaT is Through diligence and eTTorT. We should conTinue To learn even when schooldays are over, Tor educaTion ends only wiTh life. The members OT The SOcieTy usher on ParenT's NighT and aT graduaTiOn.
