X xl . f ll T' X XX l ., ' ul I . sz sa-rtm' ON 'too ov we WORLD 0fZ66l10'Zd lt took four years, hours of his time, and all of his ambition, but there he is, sitting on top of the world . This little fellow-by the way-is Pep- per Cardinal, Mentor High School's Typical Senior, l952 . We've chosen him to be your host throughout the l952 edition of Cardinal Notes . Pep's a chipper little fellow, light-hearted, and loads of fun, but plenty conscientious. The underclossmen may say he's a little eccentric, and the teachers may agree, but we all love him anyway. ' We remember Pep four years ago, shy, quiet, and unassuming, but a Freshman and a fine fellow. Despite his timidity, however, his confidence grew, and he flowered into a certainly sophisticated and almost cocky Sophomore. The Junior year brought with it burdens, scholastic as well as extra-curricular, and as a Senior, he faced the final test. But he climbed the ladder, one rung at a time, sometimes slipping, but never faltering, until he reached the top, from whence he leaves us. No dirge is in order however, for Pep is going on to greater things, and those underclossmen who cherished and depended upon him need never forget him. VV'ith this thought in mind, we humbly submit Cardinal Notes, l952. Take Pe-p by the hand, and let him lead you through the year just past, and it will never leave you. S

?uewl4hge I like the steady person who . . . ls always there to serve . . . No matter how much happiness . . . Or sorrow I deserve . . . The one I can depend upon . , . To do the greatest task . . . Or who will even undertake . . . The smallest thing I ask . . . For that is really friendship in . . . The finest sense on earth . . . And that is what will always prove . . . A person's final worth . . . It matters not how strong we are . . . Or powerful our name . . . Because when friendship deals the hand . . . The cards are all the same . . . We live together in the world . . . And we should try to be . . . An equal and unselfish part . . . Of all hu- manity. U. Metcalfl
