ang' 1qSeni0a Being a Senior isn't fun. Oh yes, people look up to you - or you're told they do. Your friends stop you as you're walking down the street, and say And what grade are you in now? and you reply, l'm a Senior. And they say You are?!l I wouIdn't have believed itl And ramble on and on, telling you that it seems only yesterday when you were just knee-high to a grasshopper, etc., etc.. until you decide that il' being a Senior makes it necessary for you to listen to these lengthy monologues you'd rather .be back in kindergarten. And someone is always saying, lic-have yourselves! You must behave! You are Seniors, and a model! Somewhere someone is watching you! You must give them a good impression ol' your high-school and of your town! You are the core ol' your school, the persons whom people wateh! Come, behave! And when you think of the Future! The Future is behind everything you do-- waiting for you and watching for you-- waiting to catch you in its terrible vise from which you can't escape, because, after all, every day is really your Future. And being a Senior makes it worse, because the Future, which is now, is also ahead, looming darker and darker on the horizon of time. 'l'hink of the struggle, frustration. and disappointment - the worry. vexation, and ceaseless labor to make yourselves a place in this devil's merry-go-round which we call the good old American way of life. lt's terrifying - Youth has hopes and high ideals, and never doubts that it will rise to fame and fortune sometime - anywhere. And thirty years from now our dreams will have vanished unfullilled and there will be no others to take their place. But we must go forward. WVe can't hold time back. VX-'e must take the Future - the sweet, the bitter. the bittersweet. lt's a responsibility everyone must take, and we'll never shirk it now, because we're Seniors - and just a little curious to know what the dreaded Future will bring. fln fact, man's insatiable curiosity, plus the help ol' God. is all that's kept hitn alive.j And at the end, we'tl like to look back at the things wt-'ve done, and appraise them carefully: our lailures and our success - and we could ask tio tnore than to see whole-hearted ellort, and to know that we deserve, il' not the words Well done! at least the words- lNell tried! 22
