RICHARD PETTEY Gods Fingers touched him and he slept. This senior section ol our book is dedicated to the memory ol our classmate, Dick Pettey, who graduated into a higher lile on November Q7. We have missed him in the halls ol B.l'l.S. Cheerful, Friendly, and dependable, Dick has made many lriends. Beginning with his Freshman year, Dick was active in athletics, being a speedy trackman, a snappy basket- ball player, and a steadfast football man. l-laving earned his BH in Football, Dick would have been a member this year ol the high school star athletic group, the HBH Club. Realizing the value ol the worthwhile things in life, Dick was a member ol the i-ii-Y during his sophomore, junior, and senior years. l'le worked diligently in his scouting activities and was rewarded by the high honor ol becoming an Eagle Scout. Dick was a good, all-round Fellow, and we are glad to have known him. The Class of '43 ADAMS, JENETA N AHLE, DORIS Ready and true in every need, g g .
