lr-lint .irtisr l-N1lll.Il'i I--fruit l 4-all fiivwrs And now, begins the last year of our role as students-a year which commenced with a feeling of authority and superiority, but which ended a little sadly, a little hurriedly. Under the leadership of our four-year presi- dent, Richard Ling, we strived to make this an unforgettable term. VVhen senior pic- tures were taken in the fall, we anxiously awaited their arrival: and, as always, when we received them, we expressed our dissatis- faction aloud-but We were really pleased. Our presentation of a comedy, Spring Fever, left the audience nursing aching sides. Spurred on by complimentary re- marks about our production we staged an original senior assembly program, which enacted each month of the year. The two dances given in our honor in the spring were greatly appreciated by us. All year we had good times, but then we came to the grave part of our school life. ln a month, which seemed to disappear too soon, we practiced for the momentous occasion-f graduation. And now, as we prepare to tal-Le our rightful place as citizens of the world, we wish to express our gratitude to everyone who has aided us in :acquiring some degree of intelligence, trust-worthyness, and respon- sibility. No matter where our diderent oc- cupations take us, we shall never forget the years we spent in the halls of S.ll.S. THE 1948 EAGLET
