Scarsdale High School Grants Largest Class Ever
Forty nine students graduated from Scarsdale High School in a ceremony at the school gym. Principal Vernon G. Smith and board member Alfred Hayward joined speaker John M. Avent in addressing the class about education and life. Salutatorian John Lydenberg spoke on stamp collecting while valedictorian Barbara Gardner presented her essay on the music of joy in opera. The ceremony featured the high school orchestra performing Wagner pieces and concluded with diplomas presented by Mr. Hayward as Superintendent Ralph Underhill was ill.
