TOMORROW Tomorrow is another day. What it has planned for us, no one knows. Whether it is good or bad, we will have to accept it for what it is. To the Class of '43 it means that we will be leaving high school and stepping into a new world of tomorrow where we will be starting life on our own. Some will fight in Uncle Sam's Armed Forces; some will work in defense plants; and others will follow an educational career. Who knows? Fate plays strange tricks upon mankind. We, the Class of '43, wish to extend our thanks and appreciation to the Board of Education, Mr. Standley, and the Faculty. They have successfully led us through our four years of high school. We thank you, each and everyone, for the help, leader- ship, and encouragement that you gave. The Class of '43 has advanced well upon the road to success, and is well pre- pared to face the dim future after graduation. It seemed that with the outbreak of the war, education would be virtually torn from its place in the world. Instead, the war has bound it together and made it stronger than ever as we of Tolleston High School and other high schools throughout the United States have proved. There was a fear of labor shortage; it was the high school students of America who accepted the challenge and went into industry and still continued their education. There are many things that we are deprived of because of the war, but we are getting along without them and manufacturing recreation and happiness wherever and whenever we can. There will be many things that will live in our memory; there will be other things that we will forget. Whatever the case may be, our high school days will always stand vividly in our minds. We, the youth of today, who are leaving school will be the citizens of tomorrow. Will we have to look forward to a tomorrow of distrust and treachery as is going on in some parts of the world today? Can there ever be peace and happiness if you dis- trust your neighbor, friend, or business associates? Can there be trust if there is treachery ready to offset it? No! It hardly would be logical. Therefore, we must learn to place our trust where it will do the most good. If we can learn to forget yesterday, live today, and look forward to a bright tomorrow; we will have accomplished a great deal toward a tomorrow of happiness. We hope that the Class of '43 has set a standard for future graduates. We know that the Blue and White will do as much for them as it has for us. The high standard that Tolleston High School has taught us made us better suited to fight for the Red, White and Blue of our NATION. ANDY SERVAY Senior Class President
