 De Ucctti M, As an expression of our gratitude to Claude Hughes for four years of helpful guidance and untiring efforts, we, the Class of '55, wish to dedicate this, Sil- houettes of 1955 , We are extremely grateful for his encouragement at the times when our enthu- siasm waned, for his sympathetic words at our disappointments, and for his joy when we were happy. Without him our high school days could not have been com- plete. We hope that this volume will serve as a reminder to him of his four years as our sponsor and friend. In September, 1951, I was assigned the task of sponsoring the Class of 1955. As you, the members of that class, grew from children into well trained young men and women, this task became a great pleasure. Each year became shorter, and we grew closer together. Our good times were the best; our disagreements were quickly and easily settled. I feel that we, the faculty, have well prepared you for the future, and I am confident that not one of you will fail to become a citizen of whom I may be very proud. I cannot go on with you, but your acquaintances and friendships will always remain close to me. If you give the world as much as you have given me, you will be successful in life. Our separation brings tears of sorrow and tears of joy to my eyes--sorrow for your departure, joy for your future. 1 do not have the space or words to address you individually; therefore I will say, Class of '55, so long! It's a job well done ! Claude Hughes
