Many things that they had done were overshadowed because the outstanding achievements of the spring term were fresh in the minds of the journal writers. All the pictures were taken during the spring, so none of the fall seniors had the inestimable privilege of being pre- served on Celluloid for the admiration of their successors. Bob Sarro, who was student body prexy last term, did a wonderful job handling the rallies and incidentally playing quite a bit of football. All of our rallies were successful and everybody enjoyed them because Bob managed to secure top-notch entertainment. Last term's leaders were fine and outstanding students who led Mission to a very prominent place in the school's history. Here's to that glorious day when the yearbook appears in january again! CURT FORSMAN, Atblefe SENIOR CLASS HISTORY With determined looks on their cherubic faces, the rosy low sophs of February '42 began their lives at Mission. Leading the dimpled neophytes on their merry way were such celebrities as Bill Tolentino, Bea Stratta, and Mollie Rodriguez. When finally these naive little creatures emerged polished seniors, their days were characterized by weenie roasts, Sundays at Temescal, dances, and the gang gathering at Dan's for a milkstake. By this time, Archie Chagonjian was a track star, and Bob Sarro took the lead as Student Body president, with charming La Verne Gallick to help him out. Football hero Curt Forsman took over the financial reins, and everything was set to begin their last term. Frank Borg's nimble fingers glided over the piano keys, he went right on up the scale 'til he was president of the C.S.F. PAGE TWENTY-EIGHT Finally came the big night-the Senior Prom! The girls, Huify and feminine in their formals, and the boys, uncomfortable in tuxes, made it a big success. High Senior officers Bea Stratta, Archie Chagonjian, Barbara Torre, and Ruby johnson made the seniors' last days happy ones, for there was a senior dinner, a senior breakfast, and a senior sneak. And meanwhile, Helen Jouthas earned laurels for herself in the field of jour- nalism. Finally, the big moment was here-graduation night! Tears were in some eyes as they marched down the aisle and took their places on the stage. Nicholas George was valedictorian and Erwin Wollak was salu- tatorian as proud parents beamed to see their prides and joys receive diplomas. The seniors felt a lump in their throats, though, as they thought about leaving their pet teachers, pals . . . and Mission!
