PRESIDENTS ADDRESS We, the class of 1944, sincerely welcome you to our class night exercises. These exercises mark the achievement of an important event in our lives. We would like to takegthis opportun- ity to thank everyone who has made this achieve- ment possible. We thank the faculty for the in- terest they have shown us as individuals, the ad- ministration and the school board for equipping us with the necessary materials for a fine educa- tion, and our parents for the guiding hand they have given us. These exercises and those to follow represent two important phases in our lives, graduation and commencement. I mention these separately, for though they areroften thought of as being syn- onymous, they are in reality quite different. Graduation represents the end of a certain period of our lives, in this case of our high school education. In thinking of this as an end, we like to look in -retrospect at all that has occurred during the past four years. We can easily remember when we entered high school as the traditionally green freshmen, impressed or bewildered by,all that be- fell us. Gradually we became accustomed to our surroundings. We made new friends, found new interests, and we gained a foundation upon which to formulate a sound philosophy of life. For 'four years we have worked and played together. The indelible imprint of our high school life shall not easily pass from our memories. How well we can recall the little things, things that have made our education more complete and worth- while. We can remember the parties, and how the boys had to be coaxed to dance, the game-s, and how we took victory or defeat in our stride. We can remember the thrill of each new year, of entering a new class, and of making new friends. There were also times of disappointment and discouragement. We shall always carry these memories as jewels in our treasure chest of ex- perience. However, in thinking of graduation, we must place our scholastic achievement above all else. Throughout the years we have been receiving a wealth of knowledge, as could only be acquired through formal education. This knowl- edge will certainly serve as a guide in the devious paths of our lives. The education we have rc- ceived, the school activities we have enjoyed, and the friends we have cherished, made the years pass swiftly and pleasantly. Now the end is at at hand. Graduation its here. But let us not be sorrowful, for though it is the end, it is also the beginning. The commence- ment of a new period of life is at hand. No graduation class in the history,of our high school has faced as great a challenge as does this class of 1944. We must not forget that total war im- poses new and strenuous obligations. We, the members of the class of 1944, accept the chal- lenge and pledge ourselves anew to any effort that will guarantee a just and a lasting peace as well as a new and better world. Although for some of us graduation means the end of our formal education, for all of us there is an opportunity to gain a fuller knowledge of life, to gain an education that extends far be- yond,the school. There is something to learn in every walk of life, on the job, at home, in social circles, in our recreation, in art, in literature, in music-everywhere. Our education represents a process of achieving goal after goal. As Robert Louis Stevenson said, There is always a new horizon for onward-looking men . When we have arrived at the hilltop which seems to meet the sky, there is always a greater .height that beckons to us from the distance. With grad- uation we have arrived at the top of one of these hills, now we see new horizons ahead of us. For some of us it may be a job, for others it may be college, or preparation for a business or profess- ion. Yet when we have reached these goals, we need not be depressed by the feeling that we have come to an end, that there is nothing further to strive for, but rather we should look forward with joyful anticipation toward horizons still in the distance. The education we have already ac- quired merely forms an archway through which we can see new paths, untraveled and unexplored by us. Life is a series of cornmencemnts in the .search of new aims and greater success. Yes, there are opportunities for all of us, if we will only travel onward along the paths of learning, exploration, and experience. Here in high school we have received the foundation upon which to construct our plans and base our as- pirations. We must all go into life working for ever higher goals. Life might Well be compared to the mythical pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Though we continue to follow that symbol of promise, we can never find its end be- yond thc horizon. This process of looking for- ward to greater heights shall guide us through life and brings us finally to the glorious con- templation of a newer and brighter tomorrow. -CARL TAMMINEN CLASS HISTORY-STATISTICS The graduation class of '44 is about to experi- ence the repetition of an historical event which occurred over two decades ago-the departure of a group of young men for the armed forces. Again today it is the great task of American youth to defend the principles and ideals in which they have been educated to believe. This is a job rich in challenge to the foundations and preparations our education has given us. However, the class of '44 is already beginning to prove its readiness to take up the challenge. Four seniors, Anthony Andriacchi, VValter Nuo- rala, lXlc-lvin Besola, and Donald Pepin are now in active service in the armed forces. Nine boys have enlisted as reserves, four favoring the Air Corps, four the Navy, and one the Army. If the age limit did not prohibit, our class might prove to be fertile ground for women's auxiliary serv- ice recruiters. In all, 21 girls have indicated they would like to join the WAVES, three the Mar- ines, three the lfFAAl9'5, tvfo the TVACS, and one the SPARS. Seven seniors plan to obtain pos- itions in some of the nation's vital war industries. No stretch of the imagination could have im- planted any such ideas as these in the minds of the mothers who accompanied their children to kindergarten in September of 1931. It is unlike- ly that many serious thoughts entered the minds ofthe youngsters themselves those first years, although there are a few possible exceptions. Undoubtedly Charlotte Simons was cured of her persistent tardiness when the teacher found it Page Twenty-l'ive
