ROBERT McNlESH President EDMUND MARTY Vice-President CELESTINE TRAUBA Secretary KENNETH SAGER Treasurer Senior Class lTl-l hesitation we entered the portals of Appleton Senior High School in 1932, it is with reluctance that we leave. Even after pondering over the trials and tribulations of the past three years, we pause in uncertainty before venturing very far from that priceless guidance and protection of our Alma Mater. The distressing conditions of the near future are constantly being unveiled before our be- wildered and distraught eyes. But, fortified with the invaluable advantages of a high school edu- cation, we are equipped to face that uncertain future. We have shown our appreciation of the con- fidence vested in us by our elders through our accomplishments of the past years. We may well be proud of our distinguished standing. Qur class has maintained consistent high scholastic ratings throughout our school years. It has been honorably represented in the various activities of the school. We wish to perpetuate this record to serve as an inspiration for a start toward the goal of achievement for our followers. Message But it must be remembered that we have gained only the preludes of our various careers in this splendid manner. There are a great many more steps to be talcen before our ambitions should be satisfied. Alf these banners, medals, and trophies alone, won during our immediate past, will never guide us through this precarious world. If we lean upon them but once, they become an encumbrance immediately. Qur qualifications for the future are judged more by what we do when we get there than by what we have done in the past. Now, as the most glorious days of our lives are left behind us, never to be relived, we wish to leave a few parting words of advice with our successors. Be careful, lest you be led astray too easily by the misleading words of laudation with which your efforts of today are commended. Tomorrow you will be no more able to be sup- ported by praise than now. Reap the benefits of an education while it is possible. Knowledge is the one thing that can be neither stolen nor lost during a lifetime. BOB MCNIESI-l Page 16 9 Q 9 Q Q 0
