ALMA MATER To Thee, the school we love so well, A swelling song we raise, Of classroom, field and truck, we tell The record of our days. And we, thy sons and daughters, give Our bold and ardent loyally. To work, to strive, and ever live, Perth Amboy High, for Thee; To work, to strive, to ever live, Perth Amboy High, lor Thee. Though years may pass, the way be long, With many a bruising fall, Then faint at first, but growing strong, There rings the clarion call: Arise, fight on for victory! Though weak, the goal must still be won,-For truth, for right, for honesty, Perth Amboy High leads on! For truth, lor right, for honesty, Perth Amboy High leads on! I I I

FOREWORD • Four years ago, we entered the ivy-clad walls of PERTH AMBOY HIGH SCHOOL as the CLASS OF 1946. Today as we are about to leave them, we have gained a wider knowledge of the world and its problems, through the instruction and the guidance of our teachers, whom we respect and admire. As we say farewell to our Alma Mater, to our Superintendent, our Principal, our teachers, and to our classmates, we realize that what we accomplish in the world of tomorrow will depend upon how well we have absorbed the knowledge imparted to us. When we shall indulge in retrospect, the hours spent here will be among our fondest memories. During these four years, the United States has been engaged in the greatest war in its history and in the history of the world. During this great conflict, science has made tremendous strides in the discovery and perfection of atomic energy, radar, television, jet- propulsion and numberless other scientific wonders. With the aid of these discoveries, the forces of the United Nations have triumphed. But now a more gigantic task burdens the world and more especially the United States. It is the responsibility of our country more than any other nation to perpetuate the peace of the world, and it devolves upon us, the voters of tomorrow, to carry forth the democratic ideals of liberty and peace to all peoples of the universe. It is into this world of rapid change that we are about to embark on a voyage that will carry us, in our respective vocations, to many far-distant points of the globe. And so, dear Classmates . .. “Let us go forth undismayed, a brave new world is rising from the ruins: Build it and say, here is the world we made. Parker Nielsen [2]
