R UTH BUCHANAN

S lowly the ga teway swings open,

And there comes in to our v iewThe beckon ing hand of an unknown land

,

Pa ths untrodden and sh in ing and new .

We glance back over our shouldersAt days o f gladness and fun ,O f fr iendsh ip and sports and l essons ,O f ba t tl es

,some los t and some won .

We hol d to our hea rts all you ’ve taught us ,

The courage and loya l ty t rue,

The spor tsmansh ip , honor , and gladnessAll tha t ’s fine l iv ing is you .

But r igh t in the midst o f our dreamingComes a cla r ion ca l l— loud and clearF rom new worlds to ba t tl e and conquer ;We’re ready— we ’re wa i t ing— we’re here !

And tho’ it ’s with sadness we leave you,

Our Alma Ma ter so clea r ,We accept the cal l— the cha l lenging ca l lAnd answer

,

“We’re ready— we’rewa i t ing— we’re here ! ”

MARIE Ponor sK I

To speak a t l ength o f the des i rabil i ty o f t ruth would be bu t to repea t wha t though tful men have sa id s ince the beginn ing o f human hi story . Man has a lways extol ledt ru th . He has a lways fi rmly bel i eved tha t tru th once asce r ta ined

,would el im ina te the

evi ls o f h is world .

Today the worl d is pass ing through a grea t c r is is . Na t ions are t hrea ten ing war.

Unrest and rebel l ion are p reva len t . People a re s ta rv ing in the mids t o f plenty .From

the thousands o f panaceas o ffered to us,we str ive to find the t ru th

,convinced tha t i t

wil l a id us .

But how sha l l we find tru th? As in the o ld fable o f the bl ind men and the elephan t,

may no t our“ tru th” depend upon our po int o f V i ew? Indeed as we look back upon our

h is tory we may be inc l ined to despa i r when we see how many fa lse bel ie fs our ancestorsheld . We are tol d in G reek mythology o f the curse la id on the prophetess Cassandra :she a lways foretold the t ru th

,but shewas never bel ieved . When we cons ider the scorn

tha t gree ted those who fi rs t ma in ta ined tha t the ea rth was round,tha t germs caused

d iseases,and tha t men should be free

,we rea l i ze tha t Cassandra ’

s fa te was no t un ique .

M i l ton once sa id tha t “ the fi rs t appea rance o f t ru th is more uns i gh tly and implaus i bl ethan many errors . The expe r ience o f the past shows t ha t th is

,unfor tuna tely

,is so .

The skept ic ma in ta ins tha t tru th can never be known . Pon t ius Pila te typifiedth is a t t i tude with his insol en t ques t ion

,

“Wha t is t ruth ?” Mos t o f us,however

,bel ieve

tha t the rea l , enduring tru th can be found,tha t the search for i t

,though long and

d i fficul t,wi l l ul t ima tely be success ful .

I t mus t be sough t wi th logic and wi th reason . Prejudices can no t l ead us to truth .

We mus t no t bel ieve only tha t which we want to bel ieve . We mus t determine eachpa rt icular aspec t o f tru th wi th the logic tha t makes us concl ude tha t two plus twoequa ls four even though we’d much pre fer to have i t equa l five . In the field o f ma ter ia lth ings sc ience has shown us how fru i t ful such a sea rch can be . The wonderfulinven tions o f our age, t he ma ter ia l comfor ts we en j oy show us how some sma l l port iono f tru th has been discovered . O f course from t ime to t ime our sea rch for t ru th wil ll ead us

, as i t led our fa thers , in to errors . Wemay bel ieve th ings wh ich fu ture generat ions wi l l cons ider qui te as absurd as wi tches , but i f we are gu ided by logic , and no t byprejudice

,when the true fac ts appea r we s ha l l wel come them . We sha l l le t tru th i tsel f

correct the errors .

We mus t no t , ou t o f our love for t ru th , try to establ ish i t by force , by law,or by

decree . His tory has shown us no surer way o f des troy ing i t . When Ga l i leo decla redtha t the ea r th revo lved a round the sun ,

he was imprisoned for h is impudence in a t tacking the l ega l ly establ ished tru th . How much bet ter tru th would have b een served hadh is theor ies been s ub jec ted to only the laws o f reason ! In Germany today men a re

pun ished for ques t ioning the “ t ru th” tha t the Aryan race is the grea tes t . In Russ iathose who ques t ion the es tabl ished economic theor ies suffer as here tics . Only recen tlyin Japan a l ea rned schola r was d isgraced for ventu ring to doubt the div in i ty o f theEmperor . In our own country , a l though d i fferences o f opin ion are seldom proh ib i tedby law

,popula r sen timen t proves a t t imes to be an equa l ly effective ban . Too o f ten

even here i t is dangerous to d isagree with one’s neighbors .

To res tr ic t the sea rch for truth by laws is to des troy i t . The surest and the sa fes tpa th to truth is reason ; to gua rd truth from reason is the grea test fol ly . I f we adm i re

Peace can no t be crea ted by a few ,but war can be created by a sma l l group so selfish

HONOR BRIGHT

A capaci ty aud ience composed o f f r iends , rela t ives , and t eachers o f the class o f’3S

,and all o thers persuaded to buy tickets , witnessed our sen ior play , Honor Bright ,

a clever comedy in th ree acts,coached by M iss G ran t o f the Engl ish depa rtmen t

,

ass is ted by Mr. Ryan .

To t Ma rvel,the chorus gi rl fiancée of the wea l thy young Ha rvard s tuden t

,R ich

ard Ba rr ington,has been inv i ted by young Ba rrington to spend the week-end a t his

home . Her a rr iva l is apprehens ively awa i ted by the en ti re family,who are anyth ing

but en thus ias t ic over th is prospect ive mésa l l iance,and when shefa i ls to arr ive , young

Ba rr ington persuades Honor Bright,a col lege girl work ing a s a book agen t , to play

the pa r t o f To t to his family . This impersona t ion crea tes many s i tua t ions , pos i t ivelynerve-wrack ing to R ichard and Honor

,bu t in tensely amus ing to the aud ience . To t’s

ta rdya rr iva l makes the s i tua t ion even more complex .

Ruth Buchanan was a mos t a t t rac t ive lead ing lady in the ro l e o f Honor Br igh t,

who i n the end replaces To t as the ob ject o f R icha rd ’s affect ions,an object more in

keeping with the_a r istocra t i c tas te o f the Ba rr ington family . The pa r t o f R icha rd

,

the wea l thy young man,i rked by an excess o f family advice

,was mos t conv inc ingly

played by George Wa tson . Hazeljean Rust was the chorus gi rl , a bi t unmanageablebecause o f her ar t is t ic temperamen t

,who jus t ified the horr ible expecta t ions o f the

Ba rrington family . Bi l l Greener,as Bishop Carton , the man wi th a quo ta t ion ready

to apply to all s i tua t ions,qu i te captiva ted his aud ience wi th his ext remely clever

por t raya l .The suppor t ing cast , all o f whom did except iona l ly wel l

,was composed o f Bar

ba ra Hea ld (Mrs . Barr ington ) ; Ma r ian Shaw (Peggy Carton , the b ishop’

s domineering wi fe ) ; C l in ton Lawry (Rev . James School ey ) ; Cha rl es Schoder (Bi l l Drum ,

sui toro f To t ) ; Ha rol d Ger la ch (Wa t ts . the butl er ) ; Margaret Gui l foyle , Cha rlot te Heyn ,Ha rol d Dewa r

,Phil ip Johnson ( four servan ts : Maggie

,Ann ie

,Fos ter , and M ichael ) ;

and George MacDona ld and Chester Cheney ( two deputy sher iffs ) .

O f the many succes s ful sen ior plays presen ted a t Dedham High School,we are

sure tha t Honor Bright yields the pa lm to none .
