SENIOR CLASS HISTORY OP 1946-47 As seniors of class ' 46- ' 47, we seem to be ending the first part of our journey — life ' s solemn journey into the nknown. As we make this important step, we recall the things that have brought us this far; our first day in chool, our seventh grade graduation, but most important, our entrance into high school. Even thought dismayed bythe act that we were to be the first to encounter the eighth grade as Junior High and first to conquer a twelfth year, e were entranced by the thought of being amon»7 the high school colleagues. We were skeptical that first day, not knowing what to do or when to do it.

At first, Te didn ' t think we were going to like this, but somehow we managed, and we were none the worse for it. The main event of this year was a contest sponsored by he Women ' s Christian Temperance Union. The speeches were elected and rendered by the Individuals and presented in
