valedictorian Richard Wist PRESIDENTS ADDRESS Four years ago, when wc entered Mt. St. Joseph as freshmen, graduation seemed to be an event so far removed from us that we scarcely gave it a thought. We looked upon seniors as a group to be envied because of their size, great wisdom, the many activities in which they took part, and above all because of a certain prestige that distinguished them from underclassmen. It would be ages, it seemed to us, before we would hold that coveted title. Tonight, we realize all too keenly how quickly four happy years at the Mount have passed. With mingled emotions of sadness and joy, we arc approaching our goal, graduation. The pages of memory record many good times we have enjoyed, knowledge attained through study, work of various types, and ideals achieved. These memories are indelibly impressed upon our minds. It was pleasant to pass on from class to class, closely bound to- gether as a friendly unit in heart and interest, until we reached our last and happiest year at the Academy. That which we will cherish most through the years is the recollection of the sincere friendships we have formed with our priests, Sisters, and athletic coaches. They have made our Catholic education a priceless heritage that will be our strength in the service of God and of our lellowmen, as we take our places in the world of tomorrow. We thank Mother Mary Regis, also our principal, Sister Marv Annum ciata, and the members of the faculty for the kind direction and help they have always given us. Foremost among our welcome guests this evening, we pay a tribute of gratitude to our self-sacrificing parents. They have made it possible for us to reap the harvest of good things for time and eternity with which the Mount has provided us. Marv Canney Joanne LeVangie Richard West

Class Colors: Crimson and Silver Class Motto: “Be Good, Do Good, Make Good’ Class Floiwtr: Red Rose CLASS SONG By Ij rraine Lee and Patricia Battles Mount Saint Joseph, we bid fond adieu; To You, Alma Mater, we’ll always be true; Scenes of old friendships, songs and old cheers, Mem’ries that fade not through coming years; When problems may face us, and dark skies come, too, Then we ll seek consolation, Alma Mater, from you. St. Joseph’s you're worthy of glory and praise. And to sing of your standards our voices we raise; To you we owe knowledge of truths most sublime, Truths which never can change with the passing of time. Alma Mater, your teaching will e’er be our guide, And we pray that your spirit may with us abide; We ll think of the days we have spent with you here. Mid happy surroundings, teachers, classmates so dear; We pledge thee our future, loyal, as before, Til the stars in the skies shall burn no more.
