fi pskh iw 3? fjif,,.!f'7 FOREWORD If present plans are carried out, this year will be the last in the existence of Petersham High School and this will be the last issue of The Hilltop. Our feelings are mixed as we face this prospect. On the one'EEnd s with keen regret that we see the passing of that which has been here for so long and which has so many meaningful and deep associations for us. On the other hand it is with interest, even eagerness, and the anticipation of something better that we look forward to that which is now building--the Ralph C. Maher Regional School. when our present school is gone, what will remain as the most complete record of what was here? we are sure it will be our yearbooks. It has always been with a sense of history that we have made our yearbook. For in it we have recorded the names and the faces of those who were here and some account of what was done here. we cannot imagine that anyone who has had enough interest in us to purchase one of our yearbooks will ever throw the book awayg and we can imagine how in years to come people will turn the pages of this and our many other yearbooks to refresh the memory, to be startled at how fast time has flown and how much people and things have changed,to wonder at how much has been forgotten, and to relive Cperhaps with a pang of nostalgia, perhaps with a feeling of being glad it is all behind! a portion of the past.
