aff? UH, .1 , Graduation, in a world of peace, is near at hand. As graduates, we begin our lives as soldiers, students, workers and citizens in a new Atomic Age. Those of us with initiative will rise as leaders, but for the most part, we will go forward as common workers. It is our duty, as workers, to mold our thoughts with those of more gifted persons, and united, work toward world betterment. The opportunities of atomic energy are before us. We, as graduates, may attain the goal of world peace that millions before us have failed to reach, if we use this energy constructively. We look to you, the Ianuary Class of 1947, to support us by carrying on the traditions of past Buchtel seniors, and by upholding the ideals of Character, Citizenship and Culture. Ianuary Class of 1947, Carry On! Sam Tillett, President Class of 1946 e 'UMW To the departing Seniors: We, the class of Ianuary, 1947, have watched the 12A class of Iune, 1946, as they have progressed in character, citizenship, and culture dur- ing their four years spent here at Buchtel High. We have seen them take the lead in school leadership: leadership which we know they will exhibit in the future years. It is the ambition of the 12B class to carry on where the graduating class leaves off. To assume the leadership and develop the traits that Buchtel stands for. We intend to keep Buchtel standards high. We wish you well: we expect great things from you because we know you have matured to meet the tasks that await you. Class of '46, congratulations and good luck. Edward Krainess, President Class of Ianuazry, 1947 ll
