A hard working director . A devoted teacher . All these characteristics are blended into Mr. Charles R. Bibaud’s warm, out-going personality. No wall exists between his manhood and our youth. To some men friendliness is merely fanciful, but to Mr. Bibaud it is a reality. He has instilled in our lives an “esprit-de- corps” that should be a goal for future students. It is to Mr. Charles R. Bibaud, who has fulfilled our ideals of the Christian gentleman, that we, the Class of 1965, dedicate our yearbook. DIRECTOR TEACHER COACH 4 CHARLES R. BIBAUD 5 / MOST REVEREND BERNARD J. FLANAGAN BISHOP OF WORCESTER 6 The Class of 1965 is the class of the Liturgical Renewal. There will be other years in the future: the year of the new buildings, the year of academic upgrading, the year of the new curriculum, the year of improved activities, the year of cultural stress, and the year of anything else worthy of the attention of a school that is alive, unsatisfied and growing. However, nothing will ever be more significant than our life together the first year we tried to enter fully into the spirit of Vatican II. I pray that every graduate may go from Assumption with a keen appreciation of the Liturgical Constitution that went into effect when he was a Senior. He knows this means more than group singing, lay participation or ritual changes. He knows it means more than personal interior growth. He knows it means more than a group living in some vague bond of brotherhood. He knows it means leaving the Prep School community alive in Christ and ready for life in a new community to which he will bring Christ, His truth and His grace. In many ways, the class of 1965 has been what we hope the boys of tomorrow will be. You have been a good class: idealistic, serious in your work, willing to give of yourselves, aware of others, opened to Christian education. Your real worth, no one can appreciate today. All we can say is that the beginning has been good. Wbat you do in the future, in a different community, will testify to what you started at Assumption. We believe that He Who rose from the dead Jesus Christ, The Son of God Is the living bread Who abides with us and In us. 8 LA \ I v 1^3 y^ff rri V I l^^'A 1jr a j ■ y \. 9 FA CUL TY EDGAR MAURICE DONAT DURAND PHILIP J HN MARTIN, BOURQUE, A.A.
