We, the Senior Class, give and bequeath to the Freshmen our intelligence, co-operation, initiative, and dignity. To the Sophomore Class we will our great variety of talent and our broad knowledge. To the instructors of South Beloit High who have tried so hard to educate us, we give and bequeath our class manners and etiquette.
