SENIOR J. Campbell R. Freitag A. Nolan R. Stillwell J. Campbell CLASS OFFICERS President A. Nolan Vice-President R. Freitag Secretary R. Stillwell Treasurer TOP STORY OF THE ARK Having finally reached the upper deck of the Ark, the class of '45 found that its stay there was only too brief. Many of the boys were blown off into service by the Draft. Others await call as soon as the Ark docks. It was not an uneventful voyage for the class of 45. It began its High School career looking forward to the day when it would be prepared to go out into the world and find peace and prosperity. But these visions were quickly shattered when in its Freshman year—Pearl Harbor, and the unchecked flood of the Japan- ese swept the United States to war. This tempest, brewing for so long, had finally broken loose, sweeping the class of '45 along with it, till now, it is about to dash it out into that turmoil, into the world, wrought with conflict and confusion, But it is not with dismay and appre- hension that the class of 45 disembarks. Rather, it is with confidence and pride that the class faces the world, feelina that the responsi- bility of hastening the end of the war rests with it, and that its duty is to see that world peace is never again submerged under the flood of aggression.
