We, the Class of 1949, have selected The Circus as our theme, and in doing so, we like to think of our school re- sembling the component parts of The Big Top. The Seniors occupy the position of The Center Ring, with the rest of the classes as the supporting cast. As performers, we have striven to do our best. It is the earnest wish of each that he can better his performance in years to come, which will aid in helping toward world peace and happiness. As the circus needs a ringmaster and trainers, so have we needed the guidance and inspiration of our faculty. They have led us toward The Grand Finale,” which for the Class of ’49 is graduation. The circus has its serious and gay moments, exemplified by the tight rope performers and clowns. We, of Harrison High have also had our serious and gay sides. With a high scholastic goal ever before us, we have worked long and hard to reach it. However, we have interspersed our endeavors with the many pleasures and lively activities found in the modern school. 2
