FOREWORD As we approach [he end of our four year journey of interesting and enlightening experiences, we undergo an unmistakable nostalgia at the thought of leaving those who have become an accustomed part of our daily lives. But the journey of life is progressive, and we shall continue on its path strengthened b) our contact with those, who, through years of experience, training, self discipline, have been able to impart to us a good portion of the knowledge which we need to enter a living world. Our future ways will undoubtedly be divergent, and. on occasions, our thoughts will revert to memories of those pleasant hours spent in the classroom, on the athletic field, and at social affairs during our years at Peabody High School. It is perhaps inevitable, that, over the years, as we move onward to new frontiers, these experiences, regardless of how deeply inbedded or how dear they may be. will tend to fade. With this in mind, it has been our purpose, in the pages of this book, to recapture a number of these pleasant moments and provide a treasury of memories for the members of the graduating class of 1957.
