Cleo Phillips—Here comes Rosie the Riveter. Or should we call her Cleo the Riveter? This member of our class seems to think that her main dish is to be found in a factory, so she's not going to waste any time in getting there. In a few short years, we'll be hearing about Cleo Phillips, the great woman factory owner, who started as a humble riveter. Catherine Rhoades—Dynamic Katie insists that she's going to be a WAAC. She doesn't know just how she's going to get around the age limit, but she's sure she will manage somehow. And it there's ever such a thing as a woman general, that will be Kate. We'll remember her as Catherine Rhoades, the woman Napoleon. Edna Skinner—Secretarial work is Edna's ambition. The efficient way in which she is secretary to the teachers makes us sure that she will succeed. But here's one little warning, Edna. Better stay off the Boss's lap. Ruth Smith—Dress designing is Ruth's hope for the future. She's really going places in this career, if we can judge her by those gorgeous styles she is always drawing in Sociology class. Dick Spring—Dick's not sure about his future career, but we've figured out what we think he ought to do. A college presidency would be just right for him. Someday the old class of 1943 will

Emma Jabs—This girl is planning to be another Florence Nightingale. Not only that, but Emma's really going places in her career. She plans to specialize in surgery, and if the zealous way she sliced up those poor animals in biology lab is any indication, she'll succeed without any trouble at all. Neva Johnson—Neva is our musically-minded girl. It has always been her ambition to teach music. We can already see her trying to teach some tone-deaf high school freshman how to play a clarinet. George Kucera—The Marines is George's shining goal. His great ambition is to be a pilot in the Marine Air Corps. Good luck, George. You'll be one of our toughest Leathernecks in the near future. Charles Neu—Charlie's going to be a farmer, too. Not only that, but he intends to be an A-l farmer. We're just waiitng to see how he's going to grow more potatoes on one acre of land than anybody ever did before. Charles Oliver—College training for industrial management in Charle's streamlined goal. We predict a rosy future for him as a successful business man. We can just picture him sitting on a comfortable chair with his feet propped up on the desk, behind a door with beautiful gold letters on it—Charles Oliver—General Manager— Whifflebottom Whistle Works.

read about the noted Dr. Richard Spring, president of Harvard University, who has kindly consented to give the graduation address at his old high school, in Perry, Ohio. Janet Sweet—This girl's skill at a typewriter always amazes us. Undoubtedly she is the best typewriter whiz in old Perry High. Janet can do all her own typing at double-quick time, then do her boy friend's, and still have time left over. This convinces us all the more that she will be a real success at her chosen career as a private secretary. Ernest Szaniszlo—We're expecting to find Ernest in the big city in a few years. He'll be getting along just fine in something complicated in mechanics. Mechanical engineering happens to be Ernest's dream for the future, and we want to wish him loads of luck for a successful career. Thelma Terry—Irrepressible Terry has wanted to study art ever since she was in the sixth grade. So that's just what she is going to do. But somehow, we have a suspicious feeling that her natural bent will express itself in cartooning. What about it, Thelma? Arthur Warren—Arthur's in love! Girls? Nope— cows. Arthur's great ambition for the future is to own absolutely the best herd of Guernsey cows
