' li 1 'f f' ll- 332 ?fl:ff?f'5f7?9'?5'2enW t . . i .A , lf. . Fw Sflllllllt El.llSSlllSlU lf., The time will soon come when the boys and girls of the Class of 1943 will say good-bye to Humes High School. They will no longer go to school to learn their lessons, but to life, the greatest teacher of all, to get further instruction. Some will go into the serv- ice to fight for Uncle Sam, some will enter the busi- ness world, and others will marry. The, Senior Class this year has had a very interesting history. Glancing over the records we find that Annemarie Brauer was born in Germany, Florence Siegel came into the world with a bang one Fourth of july, june and lane Majors are the only set of twins in the Senior Class, not a single member of the Senior Class has the surname, Smith. The parents of many of the stu- dents came from foreign countries. Both of Helen Harris' parents were born in Tripoli, Celia Freiden's father was born in Russia, and her mother in Poland, Commelite Ryan is a cousin of Father Ryan, of Civil War fame, Keith Massey is descended collaterally from the notable family of which Robert E. Lee was a member. The hobbies of the students are varied and inter- esting. They range from scrapbooks and dancing to Rudolph Valentino and flying. The most unique is that of Ieane Surratt and Emma Iayne Seymour, which is cradle-robbing. Several of the seniors came from out of town this year. Among them are Harold Steed from Waverly, Tennessee, Karl'Hall from Winona, Missouri, Michael DeLuca from New York City, and Laura Lee Corzine from Temple, Texas. lt cannot be said that the class of 1943 is not aware of its duty to America. While many of the boys in- tend to go into the service after graduation, several have felt it their duty to go before this time. Although they will not be able to graduate, to us they are still a part of the class. They are Billy Richards and Charles Kelly who joined the Navy, and Earl Ierkins who was drafted into the Army. Tommy Vinson joined the Marines, but after several months was given an honorable discharge. jimmy Van Sickle has already passed his test for the Naval Air Corps. The matter of finances is an important thing in a graduating class, and upon investigation it was found that the average senior spends allut seventy-five dollars for school expenses during his last year. To meet their obligations, some of the seniors are work- ing their way through this year, Lillian Kauerz, Glenda Moore, Esther Ross, and Marjorie Williams are Postal Telegraph operators. Margaret Tomlinson, Elizabeth Williams, and Roland Tomlinson are just a few of the others who are working. lt is interesting to note what pupils plan to do after graduation. Most of the boys plan to go into some branch of the service. Glen Honeycutt and Toby Glis- son expect to get into the Air Corps, and were ready to solo when government orders restricted private flying. For several months, Toby has taken private training after school hours. Mary Simonds, Donna Conant, and Sarah Frances Ellis will train to be nurses, james McDaniel has a number of hours in the air, Gloria Rutland will finish her education at Southwestern and Bennie Olswing will attend 'the University of Tennessee. Lela Mae Ashton is plan- ning to be a beauty operator, and Maymie Cole and Nevagene Shoemate will join the WAVES. And so, their eyes turned toward the morning, they face the future, knowing that their world is one of youthful responsibility, for them to fit into as best they can. ' MARGALENE SUTTON. K' Cffddd 06144 H NEW DHVVN The years gone are lost forever, But memories linger still. They strengthen us for whatever The years are to fulfill. And when out on life's sea we go, Though far and wide we may sail, Deep in our hearts we feel and know That teachings of school prevail. Those days at l-lumes which we did spend Will quicken our minds again, And instantly we comprehend That they were not spent in vain. ln this year Nineteen Forty-Three, We rnust look to the new dawn Ol another lite not quite so tree, As the years which now have gone. And as our place in life we take, Soon we'll come to understand Those lessons lrlunies gave us will make Men, with stoutest heart and hand. -WILLIAM FERGUSON. l P Tin-3 Hicn.xr.n Hnwum I'Im'rmx l'4lyfl TN'f'llf1l'fll'U R1 0 .. if.
