We, +he s+uden'ls of Glendale High School, will always be grafe- ful 'io Mr. Hildre+h for his unfail- ing inferesi' and un+iring effor+s in our behalf.

The annual CoTTon Cord Dance, which was sponsored lasT year by our class, had unique and beauTiTul decoraTions and was a huge success. Two ouTsTanding vicTories and a second place were won by The class of 46 in The ThirTy- sixTh annual oraTorical conTesT. The iuniors Took second place in school spiriT, TirsT in Tableaux, and a junior won TirsT place in The speech division. IT is unusual Tor a iunior class To win so many coveTed honors in This conTesT. There are also many iuniors who are making names for Themselves in The field of sporTs. Two of our classmen were nominaTed on The Group Four C.l.F. league eleven. ln every sporT in which Glen- dale High is represenTed, so is The class of 46. Those who were presenT aT This year's Junior Prom found iT To be one of The besT school dances oT The year. Again iT was The careful planning ThaT puT The dance across. lT is noT The individual alone, however, ThaT makes The iunior class whaT iT is. IT is The espriT de corps and cooperaTion of each member ThaT has made our class proiecTs successful. NoT only are we able To cooperaTe as a class, buT we can also work wiTh The oTher classes To help make Glendale High one of The TinesT schools in The counTry. ThaT which The class oT 46 has so Tar achieved is iusT The beginning. We have before us one more year in which newer and greaTer goals will be con- quered.
