WRIGHT InternationalA' Sleeping, my euslom, always in the affernoon. Dear Fellow Classmates: At last the great moment in our lives has arrived and we are about to go forth into a new and strange world of experiences. Most of us have been together for many years, but now we are at the crossroads of life and our ways must part. - The last four years have laid the real foundation for our future, and we have all enjoyed every min- ute of them. Throughout these years, we have acquired many worthwhile friends, and have engaged in many social events and sports which have proved the great skill and ability of our instructors. Everyone of us will be able to look back upon these years as the greatest and most enjoyable ones in our lives. To you, my fellow classmates, I want to extend my gratitude for the great honor of being head of the most progressive Senior Class ever to pass through the portals of the O. F. A. I also want to thank you for your loyalty, sportmanship and good-will. May all of you enjoy happiness and success in your chosen fields. Sincerely yours, Robert 'SSporer,' Clark '4l. 26
