'The Presidentts Address By ERWIN ALTHOFF Members of the faculty and classmates: Every cloud has its silver lining; and this class of June, 1988, has truly chosen the most beautiful, brilliant, and sterling cloud in the sky. The only dark spot on the horizon of the future is the spectre of graduation, which has loomed before us as a dreaded monster ominously endeavoring to sever those pleasant ties with our classmates and teachers, whom we now regard as our dearest friends. In reality, graduation is an escalator carrying us ever closer to the top floor of success in that large building, the world. To those with whom I now must part, I bid farewellewith the hope that someday, somewhere, we all may meet again. Until that time, I shall regard the memories I have of Southwestern as among my most prized possessions. There is no known refrigerant that can cool or quench the zealous efforts with which this class set forth, striving for success and happiness. We shall certainly try our best to make Detroit proud of Southwestern, when we wage our battle against the odds of life to obtain the much coveted crown of success, that we trust awaits those who keep fighting. Officers of the Class Should Auld Acquaintance . . .

After that we lost our fear and went around, dashing here and there trying to locate our classrooms. It was fun, even though we were doomed for awhile to bear the name Freshies. Then we took one step higher to become Sophomores. Now for the joy of going through the halls and yelling, HHi, FreshieVy to those who seemed so inferior to us. It was in this year that we became more accustomed to the school and t0 the rest of the pupils. Still we took another step when we proudly bore the name Juniors. Now truly grown up, we participated in more of the social events of the school, such as the danzes and the various sport activities. And it was then that the fellows courageously walked through the halls with their girl-friends. Our last step was almost completed when we gained the title of MRS. It was in this year that a whirl of social engagements took place. The boys gallantly provided the money for the material With which the girls made those brilliant blue and gold ttskull caps. To add still more money to our quickly accumulating treasury, KContinued on page 1W Page Sixteen
