2 ’45 Class Motto: “Today Decides Tomorrow” Class Flower: White Carnation Class Colors: Maroon and Gold Class Adviser: Miss Helen Donnelly EDITORIAL We are leaving Sutton High School, our beloved Alma Mater. Our four years of acquaintance with the ideals of this institution have increased our knowledge so as to prepare us to encounter successfully, we trust, obstacles which may prevent progress along life’s diversified paths. From an inauspicious beginning, as Freshmen, we achieved our high aspirations year by year, until ultimately, we have now reached a momentous ending — the completion of our four years of high school. Graduation day is a day of both sorrow and gladness. It is sad because we are leaving our teachers and friends with whom we have enjoyed many pleasant associations. It is a day of joy because we are now stepping over the threshold which leads us into the great drama of life. Yes, we have had many problems to face, but as we go down the highway of life, and occasionally take time out to reminisce, we will realize that some of the most eventful days of our life can be counted among those spent within the walls of our Alma Mater — Sutton High School. As we are about to leave its sacred portals, may we, as a class, firmly resolve that Commencement Day is really a stepping stone to the appreciation of the finer and nobler aspects of life. We further resolve that we will all strive to do the right — so as to bring honor to our school, as God gives us light, to the end that the community in which we live may be blessed by our ac- complishments.
