CLASS ADVISORS Mr. Horning Mr. Nottage Mr. Keeney Mr. Rickies Miss Davis Miss Clarke Miss Hoel Miss McGill Miss Wuest brings about the realization of that feeling. Such is the experience of the Class of January '34. When we entered four years ago, a bewildered and timid group, we accepted the helpful guidance of Miss McGaw, Mr. Bittner, and Mr. Scott, without stopping to consider how indebted we were to them for the rapid adjustment to this strange existence. Although we were not actually aware of it, the faculty soon joined their ranks, and through kindly advice and welcome explanations acquainted us with a heretofore unexplored world. With our sophomore year came the problems of preparing to become upper classmen, but with newly-found confidence we believed ourselves to be capable of meeting single-handed these perplexities, overlooking again the assistance of our leaders. As Juniors we faced the battle of becoming Seniors, and again with the unknown aid of the administration and the faculty such minor details as courses of study, credits and personal aptitude were dealt with daily, gladly and sympathetically. In the fourth year class advisors, who, by their friendly cooperation and sympathetic understanding, helped us through the numerous and intricate Senior activities, aided in making the last year an unforgetable one. Senior year! To the Freshman those words are magic, but to the Senior — a blank, dreary feeling. With the thought of graduation, which necessitates leaving behind this intimate and familiar world, losing the many friendships formed among the teaching staff, and going out into a strange, formidable world, comes realization, realization that at Grant we have been guided surely and kindly through high school by the loyalty, the understanding, and the compassion of the teachers.
