1 77 Looking Backward Oh! fleeting time, it seems but yesterday that our high school career began and today you demand the harvest of our first year. Yes, we recall those hapy moments as in procession to the tune of a high school curri- culum they march anew, and these precious minutes we return used prudently in absorbing the finer things of life. Oh! happy thoughts, you shall always linger in the depths of our hearts. As time draws nigh we must hasten likewise to pay our tribute to the self-sacrifices of oureause, the teachers. Our gratitude prompts us to say: We are grateful for your unstinted ardor bending your only efforts to lifeis greatest field that is the em2bellishmcnt of soul and mind. VVc appreciate your guiding influence and instructions which slowly be- came part of ourselves. VVe present the most sincere thanks for the aid You have given us in this important undertaking of building the foun- dation of our moral life upon which our entire future depends. So speaks our heart moved deeply by gratitude. Yet, we remain mute as we pass your portals, perhaps never to meet again. We trust our silence will speak these things for us and we beg that you accept this silent tribute as a token of our most sincere appreciation. Clara Ziemba '34 T0 OUR MOTHER To Thee our Mother so Dear, VVc conseerate this entire year, Begging Thy Blessings true, And protection under Thy mantle blue. Oh, Thou beloved Mother of ours, Do always with us share, All sufferings and sorrows, And never leave us from Thy care.

Kulaez Secretary ...... .... N largaret C. Koller Treasurer .............................. Evelyn T. Blaski September eighth perhaps is the most memorable day for us Freshmen of G. C., because it' is the day upon which our life laid the dividing line between our child- hood and youth. Oh, what joy! as our fate pronounced us the fortunate and permit- ted us to continue our greatly desired education in G. C. What gratitude must be ours, when we consider that the most precious honor is bestowed upon us, namely that of a Catholic High School Education. Thus, filled with enthusiasm we have fought against the shadows and darkness of life which, like clouds temporarily blind the rays of the beacon, as we slip through the rougher parts of sea. The knowledge of true seamanship impaired in our 'studies prepared us thor- oughly to encounter the difficulties of school life. The first year in general, brought us in contact with a number of new subjects and their rules and principles, yet bold- ly have we steered our ship against these. Our interest did not lag nor did we neg- lect the various sports and pleasures of our school career. Soon we were at the exit of our Freshmen career, but before we could leave we naturally had to meet the Examination Monster and uncertain of the results of this attack there remained but one thing to do, that is to persevere in the efforts and en- thusiasm of beginners. NVe greatly appreciated the different programs and entertainments sponsored by G. C's. stand-bys and their joint effort induced us to greater co-operation. Though only small in number through the effort of our Moderator we have or- ganized a club the ever Loyal Frosh to strengthen the bonds of friendship. lt is here that our cheris-hed ideals and motto were begotten. The Loyal Frosh pa- tronizes all sports in the field of Athletics and divides its interest in other school establishments. - Clara Ziemba, '34. Page Eighteen
