All the year we travel
A thousand different trails;
Down a blue highway
Where a tall ship sails --
Down a scene-swept country lane-
Down a crowded street- -
Oh, the magic and the beauty
Where the crossroads meet!
— Catherine Parmenter
It has been our effort to depict the trails which we
as students have followed through Palm Beach Junior
College this past year.
At times our trail has been narrow and devious, and
the ascent has been difficult. At other times, it has
widened into a joyous and leisurely experience.
There have been guides and signposts which most of
us have obeyed; there have been pleasant friendships
formed; there have been moments of relaxation and
fun--all along the trail.
It is the hope of the Editorial Staff that this book
will bring back t o each of you thoughts o f these
memorable trails which we have traveled together.

In the fall of 1952 a new class, to be known as the Class of '54, came to Palm
Beach Junior College, bringing with it from many directions the hopes and ambitions
of new college students.
One of the major class events of the year was the Sophomore -Freshman Banquet
held for the first time in several years. It was, of course, planned and carried out by
the Freshman Class. As Freshmen, the Class of '54 was also happy to assist in the
Commencement activities honoring their upperclassmen.
When the class returned to begin their second year in Palm Beach Junior College,
they selected as their officers: Tommy Lewis, president; Bryant Calhoun, vice-presi-
dent; Patricia DeWageneire, secretary; and Helen Feddersen, treasurer. Their Soph-
omore year has been one of leadership in both scholarship and activities, and serious
plans for the trails ahead.

On the sunny days of September 8 and 9, the Class of '55 began their adventure
down the paths leading to Palm Beach Junior College. From north, south, east, and
west they gathered to follow one trail leading to higher education. After a week of
orientation, they began to act and feel like real college students.
To guide them through their first year, the members of the class chose the follow-
ing officers: Monte Markham, president; Wayne Snyder, vice-president; Kathy Newlon,
secretary; and Russell Kartrude, treasurer.
In the months that followed, the Class of '55 has made a real contribution to the
student life and activities of the College.

The Student Government officers synchronize the activities of the school by maintaining a social
calendar for the year. They have boosted the social thermometer this year by promoting interest in
the various activities sponsored by the social clubs, and by sponsoring the Get-Acquainted Pool Party,
the Activity Day Picnics, the annual Christmas Alumni Dance, and the Commencement Dance.
The StudentGovernment Executive Council, consisting of the Student Government Officers, Class
Officers, Dean of Women, Dean of Men, and Registrar of the College, is the sounding board of student
opinion and a blending of faculty and student ideas. The more serious and time-consuming functions of
this Council include acting upon problems involving the student body, running the polls for student
government and class elections, and devising a budget for the spending of student activity fees.

The Palm Beach Junior College Alumni Association was formally organized in April, 1953. While
the past year has been largely devoted to perfecting the working organization, there have been sevcial
well-attended social affairs. The Christmas Alumni Dance proved a delightful occasion for both
alumni and students. The present goal of the organization is a permanent home for Palm Beach Junior
College.

MrXotiis Z.M. Southwick
The close of this year brings an end to the college trail for one of our faculty
members who is retiring after many years of service In the Palm Beach County School
System. Since 1946 Mr. Southwick has been identified with Palm Beach Junior Col-
lege, and during that time he has guided many students toward success and honor in
various fields of engineering.
The members of the Galleon Editorial Staff take this opportunity, Mr. Southwick,
to recognize your service and to wish for you many full, rich, and happy years ahead.
We hope that retirement from your profession will enable you to carry out many plans
and desires which during your busy years could be but dreams.
CommmcemeHt
The end of the TRAIL opens new TRAILS to the future.
We see into the distance.
The vague and shadowy shapes.
The signposts of tomorrow,
Covered with tomorrow's capes.
Wayfarer, what will you find,
As the markers are unveiled;
Will the trail bring achievement.
Or a life to be unbailed!
—Terry Garrity
