Prologue What is it about Park School that is unique? Perhaps it is the people, the courses, the activities. The atmosphere created by the special surroundings cer- tainly plays a part. But most of all, the challenge, the feeling of loyalty, and the growing awareness of life are responsible for the distinction of the school. After only a week at Park, one begins to feel that there is something different here, and after a year, one realizes the meaning of Veritas et Gaudiumf' truth and joy. Park teaches each student how to learn and how to grasp the meaning of life. Through the past fifty years, the school has shown itself to have a high standard of academic achievement, and perhaps more important, it has built character and personality in each of its students. The hope for the next fifty years which lies within the heart of each student is built on a solid foundation-the tradition of tremendous success in the past half-century. . J I

er - tiger L i fig' 1 4 r Thou wert my guide, philosopher, and friend It is always difficult to find this busy man. Yet, when he is needed, he is always available. His great in- volvement with the activities of Park takes him to all corners of the school. He may be in his office patiently analyzing a problem or on the athletic Held watching a game. He could be speaking in one of our assem- blies, trying to overcome the inertia of our noggins. He might be talking to one of the maintenance crew about cars or to a student about skiing. If he is not involved in one of these endeavors, then he could be found struggling to get a production ready for open- ing night. It is also possible to catch him in his Eng- lish class asking the eternal questions, What is man that thou art mindful of him? Wherever he is, his logical interrogative mind makes him stand out. Dedication ,N i it nl 'J l 4-QIIIC In addition to his demanding position, as headmas- ter, he assumes some of the teaching and much of the guidance work. For his many efforts with and for us, as well as his deep and meaningful concern for the spirit of Park, we, The Senior Class of 1963, dedicate this yearbook to our friend, our inspiration, and our advisor, Mr. E. Barton Chapin, Jr.
