Tribute to our Teachers We, the graduating class of 1936, looking back over our school years, which are now a part of the past, can fully realize and ap- preciate the many, many hours of unceasing and patient labor spent by our teachers in our behalf. They have conscientiously taught us religion, discipline and learning. For many of us happy days of learning are no more, and it is with profound regret that we ponder the fact. lt is the privilege and duty of each one of us to prove what our instructors have meant to us by being upright and honest in everything that we may undertake during the new phase of life confronting us. Before departing, we solemnly promise to always reflect honor upon our Alma Mater. We will ever be boosters of the school and in the heart of each student there will be a warm spot for St. Wendelin High School. We will remember that whatever success may come to us, in later life will be due to the splendid teachings and examples of our unselfish teachers. Perhaps some of our classmates will be scattered over dif- ferent parts of the earth, perhaps some will not meet for years, but wherever we are, we will all be united in one great, common bond-our friendship and interest in St. Wendelin's High School, its Principal, the Rev. R. V. OuConnor, and the good Sisters who are our teachers. We are extremely grateful to Father O'Connor for his kindly advice, his solicitude for each and every student in the high school. He has always been an outstanding example of all that is true, noble, and holy, To our kind Sisters we offer our heartfelt thanks, to Sister M. Madeleine, Sister M. Eventia, Sister M. Charlotte, Sister M. Fran- cella, and also to the Rev. A. Scheiber. They have been our most sincere friends and advisers, who have watched over us, and carefully directed us far along our path in the quest for knowledge. Page Nine

Lawrence Fink Valedicttorian, 1936 Valedictorian and Salutatorian Among the honors conferred before and at the commencement exercises the most outstanding and greatest are those of valedictorian and salutatorian. Those upon whom the honors are conferred by the faculty and their class- mates, must have maintained a high scholastic rating during the four years of their high school life, and must have shown active and loyal cooperation in all the activities and undertakings of the school, and must be able to speak well. Names of students in the upper third of the class were submitted to the graduating class by the principal, the Reverend R. V. O'Connor. The following eight students were included in the eligibility list: Mary lane Bounds, Loretta Brickner, Eugene Daugherty, Lawrence Fink, Jeanette Huth, lohn Martin, lose- phine Rosinski, and Beatrice Thom. Four from the above list of names were chosen by vote of the faculty and students of the senior class. Honored in the selection were: Lawrence Fink, leanette Huth, lohn Martin, and Iosephine Rosinski. One girl and one boy were to be chosen. leanette Huth and Lawrence Fink emerged as the winners. Both names were placed on the blackboard and the seniors were asked to vote for one nominee. The student receiving the greatest number of votes is valedictorian and the other student is salutatorian. Lawrence Fink received two-thirds of the class votes, which made him valedic- torian, and Ieanette Huth automatically became salutatorian of the class of 1936.
