Before long I'll be out of school. And soon after that I'1l be on my own. When you think of graduation, you inevitably start reminiscing and reliving your school days. And when you hear the Alma Mater it seems to have a much greater effect on you than ever before. I doubt very much if any of us can say that wc didn't make this statement, Boy, when I get out of school it will be the greatest day of my life. Now we all think it over and wonder if it's true that we will miss school like the old folks say we will. But it's a little late to think about what we should and shouldn't have done. We must think about what we are going to do now. Many of us have decided on what we will do after graduation. Some are going to nursing schoolg some to business schoolg four of the boys have enlisted in the Navy. lt's a big step to take, but no one can say whether or not you are doing the right thing. Only time and experi- ence will tell you that. We are all preparing to take what could turn out to be one of thc big- gest steps in our lives and this means we must say farewell to our friends who are soon to follow us and the faculty who so patiently brought us through our twelve years. Soon, very soon, it will be that big day, and finally the big moment and then we will be sixteen more grad- uates on our way into the world, hoping that we will uphold the prin- ciples on which our country stands as well as those before us have. So long from the class of '53, -Phil O'Keefe The Doors Close At the close of each year as past senior classes passed through the school doors for the last time, we of the class of 53 often caught our- selves saying to each other, I wish we were leaving instead of them. But, now that it has come time for us to close those same doors behind us forever, we begin to look back and remember the fun, and hard- REFLECTOR STAFF EDITOR-IN-CHIEF ----.-----..............

We now be- gin to wish We could start school all over again. If we were to start those twelve short years over again there are a lot of things we would not do that we did before-such as thinking that we know a lot more than our teachers. Now, as the doors softly creak closed for another year, let us sen- iors remind you people whether freshmen, sophomores, or juniors that there is nothing like school. No matter how much you dislike it now, you will appreciate it just that much more as you leave. Now we seniors say goodby to our Alma Mater as the doors close behind us. -David Caldwell After Graduation What? . . . What are your plans for the fu- ture?l' or What do you intend to do after graduation? are the ques- tions being asked our seniors and seniors everywhere now that grad- uation is so near. Some have no definite plans but many of us plan to go away to school, someday to become doctors, nurses, teachers, lawyers or engi- neers. Others plan to get jobs and start right away to make their place in the community, A few will join the service and serve their country, while some will get married or re- turn to P. G. for a few extra courses. No matter what the graduate has planned for his future, I'm sure he will always look on his days in high school and thank his lucky stars that he had a chance to go to high school and be glad he had his teach- ers to help him along his road to the future. So with deep regret at leaving, we seniors bid a fond farwell to old B. C.

Betty Bill- yards joined us in the fourth grade to make thirty-eight of us under the capable hands of Mrs. Helen Rafter. In the fifth grade Charles Lyman joined us to make forty of us in Mrs. Mavis Schaill's class. In the sixth grade, John Collins, Max- Clark, and Helen Hand joined ine the class under Miss Josephine Cur- Mr. Robert Weed had thirty- cio. six of us in the seventh grade. Bill Robinson and Marlies Kuhne joined the class then. In the eighth grade, Everett Horn joined us to make twenty-nine under Mrs. Mabel Lowe. Our high school days passed so rapidly, initiation-junior prom- senior ball- senior play - senior trip, and now we are thinking of graduation. It has been an event- ful four years, even if we think that we can't wait for graduation. Now the twelve years are over. Soon we will look back to the glo- rious school days and wish that we were again starting in Miss Win- ston's first grade.
