SENIORS Wearing the traditional cap and gown, symbols of scholastic achievement, we, seniors, are recognized as educated, youthful citizens of the present. But it is with happiness, tinged with sorrow and reluctance, that we bid farewell to our high school days of teen-age vigor. We put our school shoes away with the memories we treasure; now we are ready to face, with no illusions, the problems of the future. On graduation day, our feet will be shod in new shoes suggesting our promising future. As graduates of 1948, we will bring many honors to our alma mater as we shall surely become distinguished and valuable contributors to our community. i i ii I i n n ii U II K I H I II I r
