Reminiscing Try to think back to the fall of l948. As entering freshmen, we wondered if we would ever find our Way around the many buildings on the campus. Here at Concordia High School we found life quite different from that of our grade school days. Many of us had said sad goodbyes to Mother and Dad back home and were glad when our first vacation came so that We could be with our families for a short time. But after a while, it wasn't so bad, and we be- gan to feel at home. Then came September, 1949, and as sophomores we entered into the social and school activities with more confidence. We were no longer looked down upon as Freshies , and we girls were even being recognized by the senior boys. The following year we were really in the groove as juniors. We felt more inde- pendent and sure of ourselves. Most of us realized we were now practically grown- ups , and that We were expected to do our share in helping the wheels of Concordia run smoothly. Class colors: Crimson and Gray Finally, last September, we became seniors, the last and most coveted year at Concordia. Although the assignments were heavy, most of us managed to prepare them all and still have time for many social events and school activities. The Senior Box Social, Homecoming, and choir concerts were some of the functions We enjoyed. One can never forget the many exciting days in April and May, with their banquets galore and skip day. The grand climax to our hopes and dreams arrived in June with Baccalaureate services at St. Paul's Church and the impressive graduation exercises in the gymnasium. As We leave Concordia's halls of ivy , we realize, in the words of our motto, that We have climbed the hill-the mountain lies before us. We are aware that We must now put to good use the learning the Lord permitted us to gain in the past four years if we are to be successful in the future. Let us pray earnestly that God will bless us in all our endeavors. Class flower: American Beauty Rose Class motto: We have climbed the hill-the mountain lies before us.
