SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS President, William Delaney; Secretary, Herbert Kelly; Vice-President, Lennart Rossberg; Treasurer, Louis DePamphilis. Verna B. Ames Class Adviser Jo the C (ad5 194-8 It has been a pleasure to work with you for the past three years, and now that they have come to a close, may I pass on to you this thought by Robert Whitaker: Live for something, have a purpose, And that purpose keep in view; Drifting like a helpless vessel, Thou canst ne’er to life be true, Half the wrecks that strew life’s ocean, If some star had been their guide, Might have long been riding safely, But they drifted with the tide. My sincere wishes for true success and hap- piness to one and all. Verna B. Ames 10
