Senior Autographs SENOS That day in September was dreary as the seniors climbed the steps that led them to their last year in high school. Not only was the day dreary but the members of the class of 1947, realizing that this was the first day of their final year in high school, felt a bit desolate too. But among the frowns there were happy, smiling faces, for this was the fall of the year and it is in the fall when new friendships are made and old ones renewed. In the fall is football with its stars of the team being carried down the turf by the cheering from the grandstands as the swirling breezes carry the slowly dying leaves from the trees off and out into the world. From the senior class came the mainstay of the football team; as the mountains seem to hold up the sky, so the senior boys seemed to hold back their opponents. Throughout the whole year the seniors have taken part in leading the student body through fields of knowledge as well as in extra curricular activities. And so with dreary hearts and hopeful eyes, we, the Class of 1947, take our last long look at the campus, as the sun lingers above the horizon to steal a last lingering glimpse at the earth, but, like the sun with the coming of night, we turn to face our new tomorrows.
