But to others of us there was a decided difference. It was the last year many of us were to spend in school, and it was our last year together as classmates. It gave us a queer feeling when we realized that fact. About 40 per cent of our class entered Central Iunior High in seventh grade. Then in ninth grade our class was for the most part completed. There have been withdrawals and additions to the class, but the group that started on their Central High School careers in 1939 have been the main body of our class, among whom we have made many lasting friendships during our three years in senior high. When after Pearl Harbor some of our classmates left us, we decided to get into this war too. The Victory Corps was brought into the school, and with it started stamp and bond sales, and scrap drives. Special courses such as Physical Fit- ness, War Backgrounds, and Pre-Aviation, were introduced Elaine Postler Raymond Ray Class of 1945 Beverly Evans Orpha Ohnstad Audrey O'Neill to the school curriculum. We were determined to do all we could to help win the war. Then suddenly graduation loomed ahead of us. There were so many things to be done, class meetings, class elec- tions, class night committee appointments, that time just Hew by. Faces of teachers and fellow students whom we had seen five days of the week, nine months of the year, for four years took on a special attraction when we realized we would not see many of them next fall. In an ordinary year we could say to each other, See you next fall at the U., but war changed that. The majority will either be in the armed forces or will be working. So we say good-bye to Central and the happy days we spent there. We will never forget her, for we grew up with- in her walls. Our grateful thanks go to those who have prepared us to meet what lies in the future. The class of '44 salutes you, Central! You're the best school in the land!
