LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THE CLASS OF 1958 We, the Class of 1958, being absolutely sound of mind, memory, and manners, and in possession of all other faculties required by law, do hereby organize this, our final compilation of legal data. Ready as we stand to face a new life, we leave this last will and testament as a permanent record of our extremely illustrious and in- dustrious class. We do hereby bequeath to faculty and underclassmen the following of our most cherished possessions: To President Eugene A. Sullivan we leave our sincere appreciation for his able assistance in guiding us toward acquiring our academic and social goals. To Dr. Walter P. Busam we leave our heartfelt thanks for the many hours spent in our behalf. To Miss Kathryn R. O ' Donnell we leave our grateful thoughts of her diligent aid in making our yearbook possible. To Mr. Achille A. Joyal and to Dr. Joseph A. Shea we will a variety of interesting cases of ambiverts, extroverts, and introverts for future reference. Jim Murphy leaves his faculty parking space for his bus to any Junior desiring to attend a 9: 1 5 class. Jack Carey leaves his course in driving to most of the faculty. Rosemary Carroll, Carol Bibber, Betty Belanger, and Kay Bergstrom leave with the hope that the new building will have a bigger and better lounge.

Theresa Dowgielewicz leaves her prayers for all those who might need them. Harry Beane leaves with a trail blazed from Blackstone. Noreen Arnberg leaves the keys to her trusty Henry J. Marie Meloche, Joan Guibord, Patricia Nelson, and Dorothy Lambert leave a new deck of cards for use only in the cafeteria.

Our lives now took on a quickening pace and we were engulfed in class write-ups, smiles for the photographer, rewrites, retakes, interviews and contracts, all of which brought us to mid-term and the renewed feeling of togetherness in our class. March meant to us a long conference weekend in New York. Group singing, Times Square, the Automat, tired feet, Broadway plays, Macy ' s, school visits, panel discussions with other college delegates — these are the impressions that linger of that occasion. In our honor the Sophomores planned a prom, the theme of which was I ' ll Remember April. For us as Seniors it had a special significance and seemed to be closely succeeded by our own dinner dance at the fashionable Blue Hills Country Club. Too soon the three most meaningful occasions of our college life were before us, Class Day, Baccalaureate, and Graduation. To enjoy, yet to be sad, to desire days gone by, yet cherish the here-and-now were reactions each student felt but could not adequately express. These enumerated events have made our history, the story of the Class of 58, a story that is unfinished, for its satisfactory fulfillment lies in the challenging future and in the hands of God.
