wxvjff. aw YESHIVA UNIVERSITY HIGH SCHOOL AMSTERDAM AVENUE AND 186th srmsxar NEW YORK 53. N. Y. Dear Graduates: The exercises which will take place on june 24, in celebration of the of- ficial termination of your high school course of studies, will mark the 44th such occasion since the first graduation in 1919. At that time a mere handful, but six pioneers, presented themselves for the long sought-for award which signi- fied the successful completion of their task. Since the first graduation in '19, several thousand young men have gone forth from our sacred walls. Even a cursory examination of the roster of names which is printed in our alumni bulletin will cause the heart of every self-respecting Jew to swell with pride and satisfaction. Among their numbers, one will find not only rabbis, religious leaders, and teachers, but representatives in all honorable and eminent walks of life. Every part of our country, every segment of our national Jewish life, is permeated and enriched by the contribution which YUHS' grad- uates have made in the sum total of human experience. As I look back with justifiable and pardonable pride upon the thousands who have preceded you, I can only hope and pray that you, their younger brothers, will follow in their footsteps. I pray that you will hold precious those high standards and lofty ideals of citizenship and service, of faith in, and loyalty to, American democracy that this school has tried to inculcate in you, and that you will put into living practice and uphold in your daily lives the sacred laws and traditions of our Holy Torah. May you prove a source of pride and joy to your parents and to your Alma Mater. Sincerely yours, fiiaj 1? 9aaw Pffmpaz OFFICE OP THE PRINCIPAL
