It Um WMU U! Glaafiefi HERE THEY come! The 1946 Senior Class, passing in review. Yes, this the first peacetime class to graduate from Connersville Senior High School since the beginning of hostilities in December, 1941, it will long be remembered for its superb leadership in the active part the local schools took in the all out waging of war on the home front. High stamp and bond sales, paper drives, and metal collections were all part of the wartime activities in which the departing seniors participated. Many of the fellows with whom we used to walk to class, have a coke with, or that carefree member of the gang left for service in the armed forces to protect the democracy we had learned to love. The '46 commencement group saw many new scientific, engineering, and production discoveries and improvements come into being. Atom and robot bombs, together with the ever increasing miracles of medicine, opened a new era to students. War materials were rolled off production lines at a rate never before witnessed- or even imagined by the majority of the world. Now the peace has come, and even though some of the senior boys seem destined to spend some time in the peacetime army and navy, a larger percentage of both boys and girls ,than ever before will attend the colleges of our country. These citizens of the world will make a determined effort to improve the varied fields of occupation ' they will enter, to insure the future generations that they will not have to suffer or be grieved with the dreadful movements of war and hate. Peaceful and friendly hands across the world-that is the theme of the 1946 graduating class. A ng 2 ph ,J vaeayi eifw- ara, Page Twelve
