In this familiar red brick building, our personalities have been molded and the pat- terns of our futures have been designed. We enjoyed working in harmony with our classmates and together we encountered new experiences, accepted im- portant responsibilities and, in so doing, realized our highest goals. Another deciding factor of our achievements lay in unity of purposeg our determination to succeed in all under- takings. Now we present one final product of our combined interest and effort as a class, the 1956 SPECTATOR. One will find between its covers a collection of treasured memories often to be relived and never to be forgotten.
