February Seniors Since entering Santa Rosa High School four years ago, the graduating class of 1943 has witnessed both a peaceful and warring nation. Many of the senior boys who would have graduated have temporarily sacrificed their education to serve their country and many more entered some branch of the armed forces immediately after receiving their diplomas. Girls as well as boys are doing their part by replacing the younger men who have joined the hghting forces and also the men and women who have left their former positions to go into defense plants. A group of these girl graduates have completed courses in nursing, and some are taking special Red Cross work to help in any emergency. Although seniors have realized the importance and seriousness of our present situation, they still find time for the lighter things in life and have not forgotten their need for enjoyment and social activity. B Despite the war they have carried on their usual graduation exercises fol- lowed by the annual Senior Ball. They have participated in dances, assem- blies and dramatic presentations. This year's classes disregarded the tradition of wearing formals and dark suits for the first time in the history of Santa Rosa High School and decided to wear caps and gowns when they received their diplomas. The class of '43 shall be remembered as students who realized the sig- nificance of Democracy, did everything they could to preserve it, and at the same time completed their education.
