CLASS The Senior Class OT I952 could well be compared To a saw-a carpenTer's regular hand saw. This saw may be a biT rusTy in spoTs, buT on The whole devoid OT glaring deTecTs. ThaT The reader OT our Yearbook mighf have a beTTer idea OT Our senior class, leT us conTinue The analogy. The carpenTer who skillTully wields The saw in our case is CarTereT. The handle-leT us say, The TaculTy. Consider The sTudenTs as The TeeTh. Now This saw would be valueless iT The carpenTer did noT mainTain iT in Tip-Top condiTion-oiled and well sharpened. Viewed in This way, we seniors, as The TeeTh, Teel ThaT everyThing we may have achieved during our soiourn aT Car- TereT has acTually been The school's accomplish- menT. To The unskilled human eye, each TooTh OT a saw-even sevenTeen or eighTeen years old, appears idenTical, as when The saw was in The making, The sTeel appeared all The same. Care- Tully examined under a magniTying glass, however, iT is clearly visible ThaT every TooTh has iTs own marked individualiTy enabling This useTul insTru- menT TO do iTs work-eTTecTively if The TeeTh are razor-keen, and less so iT They possess irregulari- Ties. YeT every TooTh does iTs parT, sharp or dull, in The job conTronTing The saw. IT a TooTh be- comes benT Or cracked, The carpenTer sTraighTens NOTES iT or Tiles iT down so ThaT iT Too can perform iTs share oT The labor. Now Our parTicular saw has drawn iTs TeeTh Trorn places Tar and near. WiTh varieTy OT locale as a TacTor, and because The Lord in l-lis inTiniTe wisdom has chosen To make each OT us diTTerenT one Trom anoTher, This year's saw has TeeTh wiTh a number OT inTeresTs. Combine Them neverThe- less, and you have a TerriTic driving Torce. Some Take pride in being Tops academically: some in being gloriously aThleTic7 some in being Tlashy sOcialiTesg some in being world Travelers: some in being much Too arTiculaTe: some in mending ThaT which is broken-and some in cleverly squirming ouT OT a SaTurday deTenTion. These inTeresTs are only a cross secTiOn, OT course, buT all These TeeTh have some especial goal which They would like To reach. ln addiTiOn, They have The saTisTacTiOn OT knowing ThaT Their Triends look To Them Tor advice when in need. The CarTereT saw is a small one This year, possessing only TwenTy-Three TeeTh To do The work which was Tormerly accomplished by one wiTh TiTTy-six. BuT as Time passes on, we, The TeeTh OT This year's saw, Teel we have done Tairly well wiTh The Tasks and ioys presenTed TO us by The car-A penTer. We hope ThaT we have been, and will be, noThing buT a crediT TO his work. BACK ROW, Leff To Rigl1T: Thomas Jordan, RoberT Schiffenhaus, Philip Hordes, Edward Kelly, Irwin Opperman.
