A MESSAGE TO THE CLASS OF 1947 It seems such a short time ago when you were Freshmen that one is startled to realize your high school days are over and the time is so near for you to leave Athens High School. Your enthusiasm and drive, your cheerfulness and friendliness, your array of unusual talent and ability have made a name and a record for your class which will stand high in the history of our school. Ye prophesy excellent accomplishments by various members of The Class of 1947 in the years to come, and it is our sincere desire that the beginnings made by you in Athens High School may be further developed in the direction of intelligent and responsible leadership, in social and scientific progress, in the fine arts, and along all avenues of wholesome living. Our wish is that your class may make its full contribution to help solve the world’s great problem of today, that of learning how to live peaceably, understand-inglv, and cooperatively with one another.
