oCadt and TJestarnent We, the senior class of 1952, having braved the trials and tribulations of four long, hard years of high school and as a result being thoroughly learned in the arts of skipping, class cutting, etc., and finding at last that we must leave the revered halls of Richard Montgomery, do declare this to be our last will and testament. First: To Mr. Tarallo, for his patience with the gym buses and the old gym, we will a rapid completion of the new gym and classrooms. Second: To Mr. Newhousc and Miss Will, our advisers, we will a better senior class next year, with more ability to procure money than we have had. Third: To our faculty for their fine cooperation and tolerance of us, we will longer rest periods during the day.
