Dedication Mr. Alfred J. Pasquale The Class of 1961 is proud to dedicate its yearbook to one of its chief aides, Mr. Alfred Pasquale. During our four years at Salem High School, he has contributed his talent to our assemblies, plays, dances, and other affairs with his masterful touch in color and design. Our school magazine, The Ad- vance, has been enriched by the aspiring artists who have been developed under his guidance. In our senior year, Mr. Pasquale gave his time unsparingly as he organized the art and photography staffs and advised them in layout, artwork and photographic composition. He came to our assistance in the Senior Revue, and under his direction we were able to produce the spectacular scenery which made the show. We are very pleased to dedicate this yearbook to Mr. Pasquale, teacher and friend. 6

EDITORIAL As we grow into the world of men, each of our lives will assume its own particular pathway. Some of these courses will be winding, the lives being a series of ups and downs. Many of these paths will continually broaden as we develop in experience and wisdom. A few life paths will dwindle in the other direction. One or two may even be straight and narrow. No matter which course our lives may eventually follow, there will be an alteration in their courses marked by graduation from high school. Although some lives will seem to change more than others, everyone is actually verging on new and untried experiences. We enter the future with the mixed teelings of joy and sorrow, of confidence and apprehension. The future means enjoying new privileges and undertaking more responsibility. It will mean, before long, gaining the freedoms of independent individuals, but losing the shelter of comforting protection from elders. Graduation from secondary school means more than the close of formal learning or a step towards a different type of schooling. It marks the most important stride into the world of adults. Graduation from high school is an opportunity to step away from the course of life and so review the path already tread and anticipate the future. Wondering at our goals so closely, we look back to our years at Salem High School. We look back to our class activities, to our struggle to become a unified group, to our pride when we realized we were one, and to all our laughter and joys as the Class of 1961. We look back to the teachings the faculty has bestowed, and to the guidance and encouragement so lovingly given by our parents. May these indelible markers of our high school years help to guide our ways to lives of worthy endeavors and true happiness. Barbara Raymond
