CZQJ5 icem JAMES BERNARD MILLER 'fToomer A dimpled chin, big brown eyes, tousled brown hair-not Sinatra, but Toomer our efficient and capable class presi- dent. Well-known in school for his bits of humor, Toomer's one ambition is to grow up even though he is the tallest senior boy. Like so many others, he too, prefers the Navy. ROBERT ARTHUR BALDWIN Duke Take a couple of blue eyes, add a physique, pour in a iigger of humor, and then some 'Fun-stir for a few hours and you'll have Duke, the Vice-President of the Senior Class and the leader and crooner of the Teen-age Orchestra. Duke's present aim is to join the Navy--and what a sailor!! KATHARINE RUTH RISHELL Kathy If you're ever looking for someone with green eyes, dim- ples and a mind of her own, Kathy, our class secretary is just the girl. Perhaps her pet saying, wouldn't that iar your clavicle, has some connection with her main ambition-to be a surgeon! MANLEY DAVID EMMETT Davy Davy, a studious-looking, well-dressed member of the Senior Class, is interested in industrial and mechanical en- gineering and someday hopes to study along these lines. At present, however, he is getting acquainted with life working at Cappy's and serving as our class treasurer. 7 945 Raider - I3

endow CALM .JQ451f0r V ln the fall of 1941, with the promise of turbulent seas and a stormy trip ahead, our ship, The Blue and Gold, manned by enthusiastic Freshmen, set sail on a four-year course. We had begun our tedious but enjoyable voyage on the sea of education. Like any apprentice seamen who find that seasickness is not a myth, we soon discovered that we had to weather many a storm before gaining our first obiective. There were, however, moments of comic relief to temper the more serious aspects of our trip. The more seasoned tars, the upperclassmen, looked down on us as mere novices, but we gradually became an integral part of the crew. Our Freshman dinks, made in our class colors, gave us an air of distinction. Finally Promotion Night arrived-one-fourth of our journey was completed. With saddened hearts, we received our diplomas in the gayly- decorated school auditorium. ln 1942, after three months of hilarious fun and frolic, The Blue and Gold again left port, we were on the second lap of our voyage. Each member of our crew began this trip slightly wiser but knowing there was still more to learn. With much ado and excitement, we ordered our class rings. Before docking once more, we climaxed our Sophomore year with our annual class picnic at Sizerville. September, 1943-we looked upon ourselves as salty mariners as we again left port. Plans for the class activities were made, and, in May, was held the Junior Prom, a fitting climax to the third leg of our voyage. Nineteen hundred and forty-four-and at last our goal did not seem too remote, for we were full-fledged Seniors. We kept an even keel and a steady course, and our labors were beginning to bear fruit. Classes took on an added significance, and extra-curricular activities occupied much of our time. Almost immediately we began work on The Raider, which, like the ship's log, was to be a record of our achievements and experiences. Much labor and even a few tears went into the compiling of this, our Yearbook. Soon, for the last time, we shall enter port, with eager hearts we look for- ward to the final Senior activities culminating in our graduation exercises. We shall have completed the voyage as we began-Freshmen-this time on the highway of life. We face a world at war with renewed courage, heartened by the fact that ours is a rich heritage. With eager eyes, we look toward the future and with voices calling back, Thanks-thanks for our faith in the future and for the hope in our hearts! we leave Emporium High School. Raider - 12
