•jJn ' siiuutt’y “Eut) nf (Term” Ubssag? President, John Dennis Healey Fellow Classmates. Here we are at the end of our “high school” trail, a journey that has taken us through four of the most important, controversial, and joyous years of our lives. They are important years,, in that, during them, we laid the foundation for the rest of our lives. But, how well and how efficient can we construct the framework? The final struc- ture depends only on how we utilize our talents and knowledge. No matter what we do from now on, our high school education will play an important roll in one way or another. These past four years have been controversial ones in that they were the early years and therefore probably the hardest of our lives. Never before has the teenager been scorned by the public as has the adolescent of our generation. I honestly feel that we ar° just as competent and as capable of leadership in tomorrow’s world as our par- ents were and are in today’s. Thirdly, our high school years have been blessed with an overwhelming abun- dance of happiness, whether in the form of personal friendships, great achievement, or any other of the many activities that were available. I know we will always remem- ber the pleasant moments we have had with all our teachers, our friends, and our classmates. All in all, I would say that we have been very fortunate in being able to obtain our high school education both in a patriotic commonwealth, which in part, leads the country, and in a democratic country, which in full, leads the world. In conclusion, I just want to thank all of you for giving me the opportunity to lead you for the past two years. May your future be filled with an abundance of success and happiness and may circumstances be such that will enable you to attend our first reunion. “Denny”
