In schools there is a manly race Of learning quite Olympian Whose duty is to teach the lads To he in speech Shalqespeareang Nor yet to wear a clip-on tie, To hold in mind old Plato's views Or always heed wise Socrates And not read comics 'fore the news. For these they'1fe crammed their mighty brains With wisdom filling every space, Which now they try to glue to us. A toast to thee, the Master Race.

TO THE CLASS OF 1952, HAIL AND FAREWELLI For many years it has been my pleasant privilege to convey the farewell and best wishes of the school to the graduating class through the annual year book. To write this farewell message to the class of 1952 means a great deal to me because it comes at the close of my administra- tion of the school which has meant so much to Mrs. Wendell and me. To you who go out from The Hill, let me say you have laid the base for a well rounded education which most of you will continue in college. In those fields of specialization in college preparation for your life work, do not fail to appreciate the value of those cultural courses which quicken your thinking. The ability to think clearly and boldly today on fundamental concepts in professional and civic life- is of utmost importance. By preserving a happy balance between the materialistic and the cultural in college and vocational life, you will establish an enduring foundation for a happy and useful life. Remember, also, as I have said many times in past messages to outgoing classes, that however stiff you may feel the competition is in your vocational field, there is always room for a good man with a keen and well trained mind. In the world in which we live today, knowledge. brains and a willingness to work still have no substitute. If you have these qualities, you need not fear for the future. God bless you and good luck to you in your golden years ahead. IAMEs I. WENDELL
