As all other Freshmen are, we were enthused at hecoming a factor in the activities of O'Dea, for it meant not only that we were from the hest high school in the city, hut also that at last we would no longer he referred to as "Grade School Kidsfl Imagine our chagrin when we found that a L'Froshie's" position was not exactly one of exaltedness. Then, suddenly, we were Sophomores. A year had slipped hy, producing a group of youths determined to leave their mark on their "Alma Ivlaterf' Persevering through this year of trials, we eked out a scholastic existence until our deeds had merited for us the long awaited title of "Upperclassmen." Vdc were juniors. But the sands of time ran ever faster through this vvatchglass of juniorality, for we experienced our shortest year yet, and soon found ourselves thrust into the inner sanctuni of a Senior. just as the speed of light surpasses hy far that of sound, so also did the course of our last year seem to surpass that of our third hy rushing ever onward to its end, until we stand today on the threshold of life. Before leaving, we wish sincerely to thank our parents and teachers for all that they have done for us. But now the parting time has come. The heartfelt handshake is near at hand and all is rather sad, Since we must, we will: though it causes sadness, for tears are not for men and we, we pray, are men. FAREWELL, CTDEA, FAREWELLI
