With Memories of the Class of 47 September ’45—A sea of wondering faces is before me.—Bernice becomes Bernie.—The Janets and Janettes get fixed in mind.—Black pearl instead of onyx.— The Perfect Gentleman’’ comes through even to spilling the olives.— Gus” builds another shelf in the Junior room.—We have a Queen of the Cheer- leaders” at Tournament.—The music members of the class march at Music Festi- val.—And then Let’s Dance at the Junior Prom.” ESTHER M. BALLARD September ’46—A new school year begins.—There is need of an extra seat in the Senior room.—Wayne and David are sweepin' and chalkin’ in Quiet Please.”—Stormy class meetings are held for Graduation plans.—Exams go in for some of the Seniors.—Here comes Rita as Charlie.”—And to come, Gradua- tion with all its glory! You’ve been an outstanding class in scholarship, talent, and personality. The best of luck to each one of you. With your class motto in mind, Let us, then, be up and doing, With a heart for any fate; STILL ACHIEVING, STILL PURSUING, Learn to labor and to wait.” Sincerely, Miss Ballard Page Five

The Graduating Class JANET ALEXANDER, “Jan” We were glad to find out that Janet, who likes to be called “Jan , is our Salutatorian, for during all the years she has been with us, she has put on an act, “pretending not to know. However, she wasn’t very convincing and we all ex- pected her to come out near the top, for she has always struck out toward her goal. Janet has been voted the girl most likely to succeed and we want her to know that we’re right behind her every step of the way.
