SENIOR CLASS OF 1946 Class Flower: Rose Class Colors: White and Navy Blue Motto: Launched but not anchored OFFICERS President, Mae Belle Roberts Secretary, Geraldine Britt Vice President, Wilson Lee Treasurer, Alice Ehrie Lee SENIOR CLASS POEM OF ' 46 As we reach the parting hour, Joys of the past seem to fade, Our love for each other grows fonder To strengthen the friendship we ' ve made. Launched but not anchored As we complete this place in life. Faith in God and man will guide us, Onward through the perilous strife. Dreams and ambition surround us, While success seems far away, Work and friendship will get us there, No matter what the price we pay. Look once more at each dear face And remember the carefree days gone by, Lets place in our hearts the memory Of our schoolmates at the old Benson High. Gratitude overwhelms us for our loyal Teachers that have helped us to the end, Our hearts pour out to you our love For the leadership you had to extend. Praise be to our parents, our inspiration, Their care has been faithful and true, Long may we share their devotion, Parents, we love you too. Farewell to the happy days, gone by, Hello to the future and what it may bring, Unexploied world open to us all, Now we are ready to follow the gleam. Mary B. Holmes. 8
