THROUGH THESE PORTALS . . . we pass, the class of '46, for the last time. For some of us it means finding our place in the world of business. For a few more it means entering college. Whatever it is that we plan to do, we will have to find something to fill the void left from leaving high school. School for us was a job and social life all in one. It was our business to have a good time. School was the place and the time to do both. Years from now we will probably be paging through this yearbook and trying to imagine how our friends are getting along. Our school is still young. Its graduates have not yet had time to make names for themselves. Perhaps one of our number will become a great leader in government, economics, or literature. Maybe one of your friends will be this leader. Maybe this leader will be you. While attending school you have been judged by the faculty members on the basis of your habits, good or bad. These have been our formative years. We have formed our mode of living while attending school. How we have acted, succeeded, and failed has all been observed by our teachers and principals. Unless strong will power is exerted by us to change them, these habits will be ours for the rest of our lives. Whatever we have gotten out of school has been up to us. No person could make us learn or enjoy ourselves while doing it. No matter how much we blame our teachers for our failures and mistakes, that old axiom still stands, We got out of it what we put into it. Most of us are leaving with a touch of regret. Others say that they are glad to go. But they will soon learn that they have closed the door on a phase of life that can never be brought back, adolescence. A part of life when our fondest ambition was to be considered witty and clever. It was in high school that the opposite sex became suddenly apparent. We became conscious of the fact that we are individuals and that no two of us are alike. Ahead of us is a new life. Striving and hard work are in store for us, but the reward of success and security is too much to pass up. Yes, through these portals we, the class of '46, pass for the last time into the portals of a new life.

Gome to OnAen. Hear Ye! Section I JUDGES AND JURORS Close at hand, the jurors, who have faithfully taught and guided us through three years, wait to pronounce the sentence. Section II WITNESSES Lined up before the witness stand are more familiar faces, who confuse us with their differing voices, ideas, and opinions. Section III DEFENDANTS That is why we, as defendants, take our stand thoughtfully; waiting for the decision of the court. Section IV EVIDENCE The witnesses and defendants work together in this section to exhibit our daily, well-balanced routine. Section V VERDICT The once tense courtroom relaxes as the verdict is pictured casually in the last section of this book.
