OUR PRINCIPAL Individually and collectively, we, the Class of 1940, here pay our small tribute to our principal, Mr. Arthur J. Barry. During the brief span of four years, our experiences with Mr. Barry have stamped him, decidedly, as a wise counselor, a cap ' able guide, and above all — a veritable friend. The fleetness of Old Father Time may cause severing of active relations with him, but eternally shall there be implanted within our chest of affections a cherished corner for our Principal.
