Shenandoah High School - Shenandoah Yearbook (Shenandoah, IA)

As May, 1942 rolls around, 103 eager students of the class of ‘42 anticipate the com- mencement with longing, yet with a tinge of regret. For, we distinctly recall the day nearly four years ago when we entered high school, over 125 strong—ignorant freshmen, trying to learn the ways of SHS. And we have, finally. Fven as Freshmen, we coniributed our part to the general plan of the school. Our mernbers participated in various activities—athletics, musical, and dramatics. As Sophomores, we presented a one-act play, “Elmer,” which was a raging success. During the second year in high school, we had many of our class represented in Mixed Chorus, Athletics, Dramatics, and Instrumental activities. By the time we became Juniors, we were following a definite pattern—one of skill and energy. We had several members on the “A’ squad in football, and four received letters; we were well represented in Mixed Chorus and Glee Club; we had eight members who were Thespians. We gave as our class play, “Fly Away Home.” We were hosts at the annual Junior-Senior Banquet, where a patriotic motif was carried out. We advanced to the senior class determined to make the most of the remaining school year—and we did. The close of the school year finds twelve of our members in band and sixteen in orchestra. Forty-nine are in First Mixed Chorus, and ten have sung in small vocal groups or solos. Fourteen are Thespians; twenty-five senior girls are mem- bers of the Pep Club and twenty-three are members of the Commercial Club. The Senior Class play was “Janie’s One-Track Mind.” The Senior Class party on April 7 climaxed the school year. Thus, you can understand why we look forward to commencement with regret as well as joy. The conclusion of a memorable high school career of fun intermingled with studies, sorrows intermingled with joys, and sense with nonsense is drawing near and we vow to always face the future with the same kind of determination to succeed as we did when we entered high school. We'll carry out our class motto—'They Conquer Who Believe They Can.”
