MISIIR IXPI IIABII Our George --a true and loyal friend to St. Mary's for thirty years. CLASS Another year has rolled around, Foremost to students are caps, gowns, Diplomas for which they worked so hard, They'l1 cherish and carefully guard. As I scan back through the years, I recall some joy also some tears, For those who whiled their time away, Examination time they always pay, OF '54 High school days are happy ones, Comprised of study, lots of fun. Now you're leaving a frivolous trend To march forward as women and men. You're sponsoring a year book, never before Thanks to the class of fifty four. I extend to each a fond so-longg May you take as a slogan never go wrong. George B. Wilkinson
