Miss Aldridge, Miss Vosholl, Miss Voeltz Wfodo What We Are To Be, We Are Now Becoming ir -A' Senior Class History The Senior Class of 1943 is talking, will you listen?- Our history didn't begin with the day we started to school last year, 1942. It didn't start with the Senior High School or the Junior High. It began with the first day of school any of us attended. Through the grades and earlier years of the high school, we have held the even tenor of our way, hap- pily and usefully, as the life of a class usually goes. We started in the Freshman year 140 strong, we graduate with a still finer and stronger 90. In our Freshman, Sophomore and Junior years we won laurels in scholarship and in activities. VVe have no international Olympians, but we have those who might be. We have no Philharmonic, but we have those who are training. In drum corps, band, orchestra, glee clubs, forensics, and dramat- ics, many of our members have been outstanding--to say nothing of our scholarship, which, according to records, has been unusually high. VVe have those who are exceptional in whatever they undertake, For Harry Johns, Jr., and his singing, graduation is only the beginning. Edna Irwin and Ivan Erwin, related only in the talent of art, possess the ability of recapturing ,scenes of real life. Robert Myers brought honor to us by topping all orators in the district, and all but one in the zone. Bruce Adamson, with his capable assistants, has com- piled the annual, KING JACK, which you now hold. Leona Towner was our candidate for the Daughters of American Revolution Pilgrimage, Clyde Elliott, as editor of Cardinal Notes, has done a good job of publicizing our high school. Richard Wheeler has been a very capable president of the Student Body. Our lovely Annual Queen, Joan Van Hoose, and our charming Queen of Football, Juanita Benge, are examples of the beauty of the young ladies of our c12.SS- We here express our deep appreciation for the unlimited patience and understanding shown to us by OUP SDOUSOTS-Miss Aldlidge, Miss Voeltz, and Miss Vosholl, and to Mr. Amos, who also has found a place in our hearts. Today, we, a part of the Youth of the World, look forward beyond the dark clouds of war to a brighter new world, where the sunlight of freedom and justice will shine upon all peoples. And we will do our part to the utmost to achieve this great purpose. Our history will not stop with the Pomp and Circumstanceu of this hour of graduation. Nor will our faith stop with this world. Today as we set out to live and let liveg to improve mankind and be improved by mankind, to follow and to lead, We will always hold sacred the principles that made us a part of the Webb City High School.
