Many years have gone by since that bright spring morning of June 5, 1955, when thirty-two seniors walked through the portals ofSt. Francis CollegeHigh School to assume their chosen positions in the world or to continue their education in various institutions ofhigher learning. Now, they are men preforming their work and putting their accumulated knowledge to good use in their various fields of endeavor. During these years of experience. they have cleared up many questions and solved many problems which they had during their high school days. All thirty-two alumni of 55 are back once more on the campus of their Alma Mater for a dual purpose: They are attempting a class reunion and also to celebrate the Golden Jubilee of the found - ation of the School. It is a very joyous occasion and'very unusual, too, because it is seldom that you see a perfect attendance at such an event. There is much excitement in the air as old friends and classmates meet each other once more after thirtyefive years of separation. For some, though, the separation has not been so long. Such is the case of Phillip Collins, Eugene Kovacs, and Ronald Provencher, who have been working together as civil engineers. Their home office is located in Brooklyn, New York, with branches all over the country. Some of the Class of 55 are renowned engineers. For instance, Roger Beaupre has recently made public his plans for the construction of a new type of railroad motor. You may well be interested in the fact that Wilfred Dufour is his right hand man! The men ofSt. Francis have spread all over the world and have entered many professions. They have been brought here to Biddle- ford through the courtesy of T.W.A. for whom no other than Gerard Bosse is chiefpilot. Another classmate who chose aviation is Robert Ross,he now owns the largest air charter service in the New England area. We might very well add another purpose to this meeting. We must say farewell to some of our old classmates. Dr. Richard L'Heureux, M.D. and his assistant Dr. Patrick Martin, Jr.,M.D. are leaving shortly for the Dark Continent to set their practice among the needy Africans. Another of our departing conferees is Maj. Robert Vermette who has accepted a command in the Far East. 24 J
