A FAREWELL Life will soon be separating us, Showing each a different hill to climb Scattered, never shall we 'gain meet thus Never feel the joy of this sweet ti111e. Happy have we been through all our days, Yet the mem'ries of our Senior year Lingering in hearts, as on each strives YVill above all else be held most dear. As one, have we faced all the problems dire. As one. have we struggled over toward our goal, Attained with some success every desire, Reached toward the height that all of us extoll. So may we forever onward strive Each one attaining share of true success And at the desired goal arrive Blessed in full with joy and happiness. M.

CLASS NIGHT WELCOME Our class is noted for the number of original things it has done this year. And so to carry out the same plan I am going to make this welcome very short. All I have to say, is that we want to welcome our par- ents and friends to these humble ceremonies. We also wish to thank the faculty and Mr. Bellows for their untiring aid in helping us through. When we first started High School we thought the hardest struggle in life was to graduate at the end of the fourth year. But now we are beginning to realize that it's only the beginning of a series of struggles of life. Our only hope is that we may ap- preciate all the Public School System of New York State has done for us. E. Periconi PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS It is with great pleasure that I announce that this is the greatest class that Rye Neck High School has ever produced. You knew I was going to say that! Every year some- one up here tells you the same things, but I'm not only going to tell you. I'm going to prove it. The first and strongest proof I have, is, that we ourselves admit it. The next thing I have to offer is a letter from one of the most outstanding characters in Rye Neck History. I will quote a few lines from his letter. Mr. President: You have indeed a great class! Original thoughts have come from it that have amazed mc. As I make this survey of your accomplish- ments I really think that the class of '29 is the greatest in Rye Neck's History. Signed Dudley Hare. I have several other such statements from authorities as great as the first, but I will not read them now. Here I have a clipping from a well known newspaper in town. It says: A recent checking up of former classes in Rye Neck has disclosed the fact that the class of '29 is the most renowned in History. That clipping was from an issue of Scraps, our famous paper. From the preceding remarks one might get the impression that our class is con- ceited. But that is not true, for let me quote: VVhenever you hear of anything along the highest line. You'll know they were formed by the invent- ive genius Of the class of '29. I had completely forgotten the poor struggling Juniors! I must now say a few words to them to help them next year. There are many pitfalls ahead of you in the Senior class which only can be avoided if you follow our famous and shining example. When we picked our banner a great discussion arose. When we decided on our colors it was only after another great discussion. Everything we did took great brainpower and foresight. Since we believe the on-coming Seniors can never measure up to us in these qualities they therefore would not be able to make a banner for themselves. We therefore sub- mit this one we are sure will meet with all their requirements. We hope you will place this in a conspicuous place next year and will always be proud of it. A SENIOR'S CREED Obey the laws, the rules, and regulations. Cause not your teachers unnecessary tribula- tions. Do your work the very best. With a ninety, pass your test. Remember that you're Rye N1-ck's boast. Be a SENIOR, do your most. Lincqoln Belluscio QA Class SOIIg THE SCHOOL WE LOVE Oft in the gym we played, And many a goal wc made, VVhen in Rye Neck we stayed, Tile school we love. Our voices burst into song, As we went tripping along. In a harmonious throng, ,- lhe school we love. We say farewell to you together, We-'re leaving now, perhaps forever. Some day you'll wish we were near, VVhen you come back next year For we'll be gone from here, The school we love. Harriott and Reinke Page Eight
