KGCIUCBUJ SEN IORS-JANUARY, I 946 EDITH PHILLIPS Little did the class of January, 1946, Beaumont's fortieth in its twenty years of existence, realize as they read the 'lfunnies the prophecy they held. Buck Rogers' and Flash Gordon's ray guns, rocket ships, amphibious land craft, space ships, fire guns, and atom smashers have become in some instances a reality and in others a possibility. Therefore our future as young Americans in the Age of Science holds no bounds. The atom bomb reveals for modern youth the same limitless opportunities that the discovery of America opened for the youth of the sixteenth century. Speaking in similes, our graduation is like the release of a number of atoms whose energy is freed to produce its effect large or small in the world or its individual community. We have chosen a fitting motto: Ours to Achieve. After four years of work and preparation we are ready to leave Beaumont to influence our own individual worlds. It is Ours to Achieve any goal we have set for ourselves. To help smooth our last, most important path through high school we chose the following ofiicers who have done their respective jobs ably and well: President C James Jeans Vice-President Marilyn Schmitz Treasurer Donald Schwartz Secretary Ruth Schmid Digest Correspondent CADUCEUS Correspondent Executive Committee Student Council Representatives Sponsor Jack Mannebach Edith Phillips Helen Gray William Nichols Edward Morrison Anna Bono Ruth Jungman Donald Briggs Miss Cunningham Twenty- one
