Remembering JFK

Posted on June 21, 2013 by


November 22 marks the 50th anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.  Kennedy attended the Noble and Greenough Lower School from 1924 to 1926, and we are very lucky to have a number of items in the library and the archives related to JFK. These items will be on display until Thanksgiving.  Here is what you can find: JFK

  • The Dallas Morning News newspaper from Nov. 23, 1963.
  • The Daily Evening Item newspaper from Lynn, Mass., from Nov.  23, 1963.
  • A facsimile of a letter from Mrs.  Myra Fiske, principal of the Lower School, to Mr. Wiggins proclaiming her excitement that JFK will be joining the class of the Lower School (from October 1924).
  • A facsimile of a telegram sent from Joseph Patrick Kennedy to JFK while he was a student at the Lower School wishing him good luck in his game against Rivers.
  • A rock from the Grassy Knoll and a piece of asphalt from Elm St. in Dallas, Texas, the site of the assassination.
  • A photocopy of the 1924-1925 Lower School directory, which includes JFK.
  • A facsimile of a letter written in 1956 from Senator Kennedy addressing students at Nobles.
  • Two different issues of LIFE magazine commemorating JFK’s life.
  • The inauguration program from Jan. 20, 1961 including the inaugural address.
  • Envelopes from his office from when he was a senator.
