DEDICATION MR. GEORGE V. GRADY We of the class of 1962 take pride in dedicating our dassbook to George V. Grady, teacher of English at Wilby for over a quarter of a century. A gentle, yet persuasive master, he made literature spring to life for us and under him, whether smiles were to be moved or tears, we reveled in the glories of the Great Books. His classes were more than interesting in an atmosphere of occasional fun and frolic. Mr. Grady and his devoted wife have traveled all over this country and extensively in Europe. He has a great fondness for Italy, and often confided to us that he left part of his heart in Venice and threw coins in the Trevi Fountain in Rome so that some day he might return to the Eternal City. Patience, tolerance and understanding are but a few of his qualities. We have often been heartened by his contention that what young people need are models, not critics. Never,” he says, have I ever encountered a real bad teenager.” We are grateful for the privilege of ennobling our yearbook with a salute to this scholarly gentleman. 3
