GOODBYE TO BOARDMAN ADDRESSING NEXT YEAR'S sermons A little bit sad, we are now preparing to leave Boardman's doors forever. At least, we'll never be back to study. Our Boardman study days are nearly over! Before we leave we want to go briefly over our experiences and to present to our successors, senior problems as we have seen them. We find ourselves lingering on every little situation that unavoidably comes to our memories. We think- and we think these things: Could there be anything sweeter than Miss Atkinson's patience? Could a more truly helpful spirit be found than Miss Smith's? Hi-Y would have to look far for a more understanding advisor than Mr. Hirshberger. Mr. Tidd gives us a wonderful example of capability, while Mr. Henderson shows us the advantages of real versatilityg and Miss Hamilton has introduced us to gentle sophisti- cation. But must I go on? You understand don't you, that each teacher has helped to build our characters by illustrating day after day the points which we must recognize in worthwhile person- alities. I'm so glad that I've gone to Boardman for my four years of high school. Boardman is just the right sizeg has just the right kind of friendly students and is just-well, just right. After four years of tears and triumphs together, we feel that every fellow classmate is a brother and every teacher a real friend. Despite differences on various occasions, we are ready to leave with no animosities, but sort of a heavy feeling because its all over. Of course many of us want to go to college, but that's different. It isn't high school and we aren't seventeen anymore. For those of us who are going to get jobs right away, graduation means farewell to pencils and books. For the rest it means goodbye to those silly Hi-Y paper savers, writing lessons on Bugle or Crier paper, and borrowing somebody's pencil fa pencil that had Sheet and Tube, or the football schedule written on ith. VVe leave Miss Garver's daily slogans, written on the board before anyone comes into morning study hall, to next year's seniors. They can look up there and chuckle if it's funny, remember it if they think it's any good, and forget it if it does not interest them. Next year's Bugle staff can read all the interesting bits of knowledge on the Bugle walls tif WPA hasn't scrubbed them clean by thenl. It will be a shame if those messages are removed-future journalists will have a distinct disadvan- tage in not having the tender advice of the staffs of '35, '36 and '37-plus our additions! All privileges that we have had because we finally reached our senior year we leave to next year's seniors. We have been given the right to work on outside projects instead of having study periods when it was necessary. Teachers are always kind and cooperative in granting excuses when they are really needed-but beware, please don't take advantage. It really is not quite fair. Remem- ber, teachers will try especially hard to be fair with you if only you are fair with them. Next year's Varsity football and basketball heroes can be watched and admired and especially cheered as their last game nears. We might mention, because we know now, all the things the coming freshmen, sophomores, and juniors are in for, but we are addressing particularly the new seniors because they are immediately taking over the place we rather reluctantly leave. Don't forget, new-comers, you really hold Boardman's reputation in your- hands. As seniors set the pace, so must the rest of the school follow. The senior class is responsible for the big enter- tainment features of the year and the Crier, and Bugle leadership. We would like to fill you with such ambition for your class and your school that you will put all first things first. You will concentrate on scholarship first then on extra curricular activities. We would like to predict for you, but of course We cannot. You have affairs in your own hands. We would just like to tell you, that we are confident in your ability and that we want to encourage you to do your best. One year from today all of this year's seniors will procure one of your annuals and see just what you have accomplished. We shall see what message you give to your successors. We wish you much success and hope that you may enjoy your senior year as much as We have enjoyed ours. ' Each one of us has a private feeling as the last day nears. In a sense, its nice to be finished. Everyone heaves a sigh of relief when any task nears completion. Still there is another angle to consider-we're leaving. Goodbye-Boardman, thanks for what you've done for us. We salute the future! -A SENIOR L 1
