Sllllllll Burn: NIAY lb, 1925 mvm ARCHBALD ,f,,,.,,,,,:1.,35 David is one ol that distinguished group of boys who entered way back in '35. Even in the lifth and sixth rntlcs he was recognized as a natural wil. and has retained his title throughout his eight years at Niebtis. Since the momentous day of his arrival, he has tlayed an important part in the schnol's ac- tivities. Little Arch, as he is fondly called, has not nnly 'been an outstanding: athlete, eaptaining both varsity. tennis and soccer teams. but can be frequently found on the honor roll.

THE SENIOR CLASS OF 1943 Like so many other boys all over the country, we fthe senior classl were faced with a truly perplexing problem. The future was unknown, and indefinite, and few could make any plans. On looking at the record ofour class, each of us is inclined to pal himself 011 the back, for regardless of all the unknowns, our record is good. We have managed to continue all senior activities, carry heavy courses, and yet we have come out on top. The future for most of us still remains uncertain, but a few of the more fortunate are certain. ln the arnled forces up to date are: Bill lless-Army Air Corpsg Paul Hemmerich and David Archbald-Naval Air Corps: Eddie Walsh- Navyg and Torn Schaeffer. Al Rogers and Ross Hall will probably enter the Army, via draft, shortly. Dutch Cole has already left for the Air Corps, and Park Bagley is now in the Coast Guard. Wayne Rutter and BQMHFSIIQ, Davis are both in college. Many others are planning to attend college, but few are sure of il. The Senior Class of I943 has completed a successful year, and we feel certain that such a class as this will continue its fine record, wherever it may be. 11

Burn: Novutvttum 24, 1925 NIARSHALL EWIING DAVIS Entered: Setfrsmman 1939 Joe Davis' son. Since enteriuv Nichols as a freshman, Marsh has distinguished himself in various lields of athletics. Making the basketball tenln for three consecutive 'cars, his hei ht has made him n mainstay of the team at center. Besides throwing the discus on the trach team, Mari was a member of the hue forward wall of this year's football team. Outside of his school activities, Marsh takes quite an interest in howling and swimming, not to men- tion . . . Well maybe we had better not mention her here. Due to a tough academic schedule and these outside interests we are unable to classify him as one of the brains of the class, but Marsh does hope to be able to further his knowledge of heating, refrigera- tion, and stcanilitting at Carnegie Tech next year.
