Rhodes High School - Aries Yearbook (Cleveland, OH)

We the members of the graduating class wish to dedicate this Yearbook to Mr. Howard Gaiser. He was more than a teacher. For three and one-half years he helped to guide us and to shape our principles. To those of us who knew him personally he was an all around swell fellow who was always willing to take a joke, but who still commanded the respect of all. To those of us who knew him by sight only, he was the good looking teacher with the smiling features. Now even after he has left our school, his memory and good work still linger in the halls and classrooms. Mr. Gaiser is now in the Army of the United States of America, helping to fight for the principles which he taught us to live by. We want to thank you. Mr. Gaiser. for helping us to get started on the right foot in this world of grief and sorrow. We want to thank you for fighting for us now. And perhaps most of all, we want to thank you for being a pal. The best of luck to you. Mr. Gaiser. ■7 THE SENIOR CLASS

Neil D. Mathews Members of the Class of January. 1943: Perhaps our greatest satisfaction comes from a feeling that we are wanted and needed. You are leaving high school at a time when your talents are in great demand. The armed forces, industry, commerce, agriculture. and the professions, all are bidding for your services. Some of you will have little choice in the work which you will be called upon to do during the war: others of you will be able to make your own decisions. In either case, we shall expect you. insofar as the decisions lie with you. to select the job which you can do best and do that job with a realization that the future of America depends on you. We shall expect you to do everything in your power to maintain a strong healthy body, an alert mind, and a growing faith in the democracy of which you are a part. My good wishes go with each of you. Sincerely. Neil D. Mathews
