Our Future I ' it ' ty out of our graduating class will go to some other schools, col- leges, and uni ersities; about thirty more of us have really well-formed plans for what we are to do after graduation. Ifut what about the others? b ' or them there are two choices: to begin now to make plans and to wt)rk to realize those plans, or to flow onward with no purpose in mind; to pick up aiiN’thing that presents itself and to drop it when it becomes burden- some. Is yours going to be one of those names which, when your former comrades glance through this record, will be skipped with a passing glance and the thought that you haven’t amounted to anything ' el ? Or will you be one whose friends are proud to say that they knew ' Ou in high school ? Between these two levels is the place where the majority will fall. Let each one of us do his honest best to be above the average, and our class, the Class of 1937, will set an example for every subsequent graduat- ing class to emulate. Rich.xrd 11. Bridge, ’37 Work and Win ' Back in our junior year, during a class meeting, why did we vote overwhelmingly for the motto “Work and W ' in ? The thought foremost in our minds was to choose a phrase that was short, snapp g and simple, yet one which would express our objective in such a way that we could easily remember it. In this we succeeded. But there is something more to a motto than the remembrance of it — a fact which most of us have over- looked. That is, obc ioLisly, its meaning. Word hv word, let us analyze “W ork and Win . “W ' ork” means simply to labor, either mentally or physically; “and” implies that there is more expressed in our objective than mere toiling; and the key is “Win”. The result of our work is what we must never lose sight of. As we have expressed in our motto, may it always be to “win’’ o er e ery obstacle we meet. Rich. rd II. Bridge, ’37
