Yes, I am proud of the mental growth of the members of the class of 1952. In their four years with me they have proven that they can combine classwork and outside activities with unmatched success. In their clubs, in their dance promotions, and in their senior committees, they have proven that I have not been wrong in my appraisal of them. They have not looked for the superficial beauty ; rather, they have looked for and found the worth of inner beauty, knowledge. I shall now let my pool freeze over. On some future day when one wishes to look into the past to bring back memories, it will melt, and its surface touched once again . . . by Robert Haidukewicz
