Valedictory They Can Who Think They Can Twelve years ago, when we, the Class of '37, entered the first grade of St. Anthony's school, we little understood the pleasures, hardships, joys and sorrows 'that would come into our lives. We did not know life's meaning -in fact it had little-for all our experiences were limited to a very small environment that was soon to grow proportionately as our edu- cation advanced. ln passing through the first phase of our early training at school we began to encounter little difiiculties. Even from this early period we were taught by our able teachers to conquer these hardships, small ibut important, for they were to be the found-ation of our future struc- ture, built on They Can Who Think They Can. ' ln the second stage of our education, be- sides developing our minds and bodies we learned the meaning of loyalty, truthfulness, and good citizenship, qualities which are bound to spell future success. ln 'the third stage of our elementary train- ing we were taught the true meaning of re- sponsibility which valuable asset successfully launched us into our high school career. Here we were confronted with new and more diffi- cult assignments, were faced with different problems-some pleasant and others disagree- able. We found that all the combined character traits we had imbibed in our early training would stand us in good stead, and armor us to SENIOR

overcome these new obstacles and have us gain by them. Now we have completed our years train- ing at St. Anthony's-a course which is not on- ly the first stepping stone into the future, but a fortress for the battle of life. The preparation we have made for this battle will promptly show itself when we en-ter the field of action. Let us put forth our best efforts and make use of every opportunity that comes our way, nev- er forgetting that They Can Who Think They Can. -Clarence Mentgen.

D. 1937. fseall The Seniors of S. A. l-I. S. The Graduating Class of S. A. H. S. This is a typical survey of the Graduating Class of Nineteen l-lundred Thirty-Seven. lts component parts are twenty young men and women, ranging from average to su- per. Sixteen of them have belonged to it since its inception on the Tuesday following Labor Day in the year 1933. Eight of its component parts are hand- some and valiant. Twelve are charming and demure. From its combined 'height of nearly 200 feet it can look into the windows of the four- teenth story of the lvoolworth Building on Broadway. From such an elevation, how far can this class not see! Its combined weight is three thousand one hundred and twenty-five pounds. Weight enough surely to anchor its feet to prosaic work, even though its head is in the clouds! It's combined years are three hundred and sixty, which is no mean age, even in com- parison with that of Methusalah. Consider the wisdom of a class that has seen almost four hundred yearsl Empires have risen and fallen, wars have been declared aand won, fads have swept the earth and died out since its eyes first saw the light of dayi With what an accumula- tion of experience and wisdom will it go forth into the world!

Chemistry--One atom, teary as to face Lost in the vast, uncharted spac e. Typing-An inadvertent V for B: A luckless caret struck for 3.
