qbresiden t is Temarks Being a senior in high school today is one of the most complex and valuable times in our lives. At the first of the year it seems great to be at the top of the list. Ever since we were freshmen and saw the seniors around school we all dreamed of the care- free day when we would be in their place. At first it seemed a long way off. NVhen we became sophomores We didn't seem much closer, but we were on our way. As juniors our spirits were lifted by the thought that we were nearly to our goal. Finally after those years of toil We earned the privilege of being called seniors. Life was moving busily along and we didn't have a care in the world. Suddenly one day someone said, What are you planning to do next year? That was a new question for us, but it was one that We would hear many times. Before this we had had no worry about next year, some one had always told us what we were doing. Now it was quite a different story. We had to Write to colleges, take tests, study vocations, and make those important decisions that will influence our entire lives. In the spring of the year we exchanged photos with our classmates. These pictures began another new wave of thought through our already overworked brains. As our collections became more complete we began to think of the final day when we would all be together-graduation. We, as seniors, have had our ups and downs, and have gained valuable ex- perience in working out our personal problems. Now We are to venture, prepared and unafraid, through the portals of W. H. S., our teacher, to meet and, we hope, overcome any obstacles that may arise to hinder our progress through life. PETER THOITS
