As freshies we were all very green but were eager to begin the task set before us. When we went to our first Assembly, we were greeted with the hazings and remarks of the upper-classmen. But we withstood all this and came through with flying colors. Thus our first voyage was ended. The second year began calmly enough, that is, if calmly means to pursue the elusive Frosh, and initiate him. When we entered as Sophomores, we found that some of the familiar faces were missing, for there are always some people who drop by the Way side. Now as we were better acquainted with the teachers and each other we got along very well, not only in studies but also in other activities. We were very proud of the fact that we sent a great number of players to the varsity teams of football and basketball. Also, many made names for them- selves in wrestling. Leaving school for our vacation, the world stared agog at us, for were we not Juniors rightly proclaimed so by the Powers that be? Thus we came to the end of our second voyage. -14-

We are seen entering B. H. S. again. Now we enter for the last time, for we now take our place as dignified Seniors. We realize that we must do more work and set an example for the under-classmen, which we faithfully believe we did. We organized and elected Edward Friskie as our class President. This year, as in preceding years, we had many boys on the football and basketball squads. Although there are only 57 of our 103 left, we are very proud of our class. There were many social events that will forever be remembered-the Senior play, Baccalaureate, and above all, Commencement. For now as we are slowly being put on the shelf of Time and other classes come to take our place, there will be a warm spot in each heart of the class of '44 for Boswell High, and the work which it did for us. As we leave for the last time we know that we will never again enter B. H. S. as students. and in our eyes there is a tear. The years which we spent in school will always be cherished as fond memories. And some day, we shall refresh the memory of our associates by reading through these pages and can readily see which were the best years of our life-school days.
