president ' s ADDRESS This year has been a very successful one for the Senior Clas? 1 of 1945. We have worked as a complete unit on every event that we have planned. V.e have found that the entire group can work out successful achievements better than indi vuaduals. When certain difficulties arise a group can think of more small details and can place events to a higher degree of efficiency. In our senior class when ever we planned an e ent we discussed it in front of the whole class and asked their opinions of the subject. After the opinions were given and everyone agreed upon it, we then went ahead and carried it out according to what the class wanted. We learned what cooperation meant when the class anc sponsors got together by this method. Good examples are our dances, our senior play, and our carnival. We found that each and everyone had to give something and put forth our effort to be able to bring an objective to the extreme limit or temrnal point. This is the reason that everyone was satisfied and why our graduation year was such a success even though we were faced by the dreadful effects of war. Now that we have nearly completed our high school training, we must look forward to the future and try to find what is in store for us. We know at the present time v e are faced by a grave appressing war and if the opportunity comes when our country should call upon any they shall gladly pledge their lives with a strong determination to bring this dreadful situation to an end. Y»’e have sacrificed one of our members to the armed forces this year, and the entire class will be thinking of him and wishing him the best of luck while we are graduating. The future will depend wholly upon the person, and I’m sure that the Senior Class of 1945 will turn out to be a success when the opportunity arises. I v as very happy when they chose me as their leader and hope that they were satisfied in doing so. I hove tried to lead my class to be a successful one and trust I have achieved my goal. It has really been a satisfaction to work with this group, and I wish each and everyone the best of luck in the future. Now cur class in true and sincere thinking wish the entire school, the townspeople, and especially our sponsors, Mr. Yates and ?4rs. Elackler all the success in the world. Lavern Bradford
