FOREWORD To us. the Class of 1953. graduation has always seemed to be a strange and rather stirring event somewhere off in the future. Now it is here, and almost over. lndeed, it really is over, except for the paying of our debt: a debt of patient hours generously given by faculty and administra- tion, a debt of talent and genius devoutly dedicatedg a debt of money liberally spent for our benefit. In this, our Evergreen, is permanently recorded the history of our years together at Tower Hill. For us, how- ever, the printed words will mean not half as much as those we shall discover between the lines. lf these pages are closely scanned, they will reveal an ideal, and a way of life. Tower Hill has given us this ideal and this way of livingg we must now apply it to our life in a world full of apprehension and indecision this is our final test.
