tlecbcafecl fo WefucAen3 gk As the grand climax of our school career ap- proaches, we pause reverently to pay tribute to the fine accomplishments of our Board of Education. This group of outstanding citizens has served the community faithfully and assiduously for many years. Depriving themselves of much earned leisure, they have unsellishly devoted their time to fulfilling the individual needs of every pupil attending Metuchen High School. Not only have these men made pos- sible improvements in the school itself, but they have offered guidance to its students and faculty. Thus, it is indeed timely and htting that we, the class of forty- eight, in deep appreciation for the benehcial services rendered in our behalf, sincerely dedicate our yeara book to this noble group of men who comprise our superior Board of Education.

ea em of giclucafion Class of 1948: As the years roll on there will be many times when you will take this Blue Letter from the top shelf of the bookcase or the bottom of a trunk. Then for a few moments you will be lost to the world for you will be reliving the days of 1944 to 1948. You will meet, talk, and laugh with your fellows and teachers, refeel the joy of pleasant situations and the hurt of unpleasant ones of those years. Surely that will happen and I hope that all those moments taken from the time of your future life's work will be glorious and result in a thrill. ButfI hope for far more than that. As the years roll on, the content material of algebra, biology, and other subjects will grow dim. Surely that will happen also. But I hope that the spirit of truth, honesty, co- operation, tolerance, sportsmanship, and industrious- ness that old M.H.S. has tried to instill in you will grow and become stronger so that you may rightfully take your place by the side of so many splendid people who cherish the same memories as you will.
