CLASS HISTORY OF FEBRUARY 1943 As we, the seniors, turn the paces oi this year's Bowenite, we likewise turn in our minds the memories of our high school years. It seems impossible to realize that four years have slipped by since our entrance into Bowen. February 1939, started our Freshman year, this year, rather dim in our memory now, was the one in which we first beqan to make the friendships which we were to keep durinq our school years, and perhaps all our lives. It was in this first year that we began to earn our Tau Pi Alpha credits, work for National Honor, and join the other organizations open to freshmen, As Sophomores we became more familiar with school lite and began to venture opinions at Student Board meetings, attend football games, senior plays, and join the choruses, Yesg we were establishing ourselves on a firm base for our next two years. ln our lunior year many of us had the honor of beinq elected into the National Honor Society, we earned our 'Tau Pi Alpha keys, and began to hold offices in various clubs. Then came our senior year, and it was just as wonderful as we anticipated. There was the thrill and suspense of senior elections: the presentation of the senior play, A Letter to the General? our football team's placing second in the South Side competition: our social committee sponsoring the senior hay ride: and as the end of the semester drew near, there was our Class Day Program, the Senior Award assembly, in which the outstanding students were honored, and last but not least, the highlight of our social events, the new and patriotic Victory Prom which was held in our school gym. We certainly have had a wonderful Senior year and now, as qraduation draws near, the best wishes of our entire senior class go out to several oi our fellow classmates who are now in the Armed Forces. . On Ianuary twenty-eighth, 1943, when we gain our coveted diploma, we leave Bowen: but the knowledge and character we have obtained goes with us to guide us through our entire lives. Class Motto A oem cannot be polished without rubbing, and a man cannot be perfected without tria1s. Class Colors Red, White, and Blue. Class Flower Red roses, white carnations, and blue cornflowers.
