They says an unprecedented attempt to destroy the things men live byf faith in onc another, belief in human dignity, truth as science, logic, and philosophy. Wie saw our loved ones, our schoolmates and friends, die to defend a way of life that is our responsi- bility to maintain. Wie learned early to enjoy working together, doing our small share as citizens of a democracy. W'e learned to think in terms of cooperative planning toward world peace. Many are the deeds of heroism we heard: we became familiar with all the name thc history books will carry. Democratic idealism, backed by the practical steps to attain it, was inculcated by a luan who, in the small sphere of one school, of one city, kindly, quietly, and determinedly taught citizenship by the example he set. To you, CLARENCE A. FULMER, the Class of January 1947 dedicate our yearbook and extend our heartfelt thanks for the example you have given to us, as well as to the commun- ity of true manhood, of unselfish living, and of real democratic citizenship.

How sTrange iT Telf To realize suddenly ThaT a new world lay beTore you wiTh grown-up sTudenTs as iTs inhabiTanTs who carried on The business oT school acTiviTies smooThly and wiTh auThoriTy. Oh, how bewildering were Those TirsT Tew days which Tound you losT in a sea oT unTamiliar Taces and Toreign scenes! The Teeling oT depression was soon liTTed, however, by discovering new and inTeresTing personaliTies. As a resulT OT This ThrusT inTo new surroundings, new Triends. and new ideas, your ouTlook on liTe began a quick change, and in The Three years OT high school, has conTinued To do so aT record-breaking speed. Claude FosTer was our TirsT PresidenT. The oTher oTTicers included: Vice-PresidenT, JeanneTTe Monaco: SecreTary, Sara DeShong: Treasurer, Charles Tresslerg STudenT Council, Diane Kipp and Richard Wadman. The aThleTic girls immediaTely Tried Tor The Leader Corps. The iniTiaTion greaTly marred Their appearance: buT suTTering embarrassmenT was only The beginning, and despiTe The long hours and hard work, They loved iT all. C'ur class has reason To be very proud oT Their record in serving The school. Our TirsT social evenT was a combined parTy wiTh The lOA's To celebraTe The winning oT The compeTiTive play Elmer , The parTy was a huge success, buT The small number oT our class was easily recognized. By The Time The IOA Term was reached, The newness oT The school wore OTT wiTh The budding oT long-lasTing Triendships. As a lasT summer's Tling, we accompanied The ! lB's on a boaT ride. The weaTher- man Turned againsT us, Tor ThaT morning began as a dark, dismal day, and The river was heavy wiTh unpleasanT odors. NaTure's gloomy display Tailed To dim The pros- pecTs oT a good Time: dancing TeeT To The rhyThm oT TasT recordings and conTinuous laughTer managed To brighTen one spoT on The Delaware River. LaTer, Though, auTumn saw us seTTled down and sTudying hard. The promoTion in January I945 marked The TirsT year in high school. Along wiTh The consciousness oT belonging To The school, came The peculiar Teeling ThaT you had been There Tor ages and ages, junior high seemed so Tar behind. The commercials really began oTTice work wiTh daily Typing exercises and slow progress in shorThand, while The academics bore up under American hisTory and English grammar. Again we won The conTesT among The Three one-acT plays. This Time iT was The LosT ElevaTor . ThaT winTer was very long, and The lessons were excepTionally hard. There seemed To be no end To The grind. Do you remember your ioy when one sunny morning you awoke To find spring had silenTly crepT in Through The nighT? lnsTanTly There spread an epidemic oT spring Tever. How we all welcomed her arrival: plans were immediaTely made Tor a picnic aT Baynard STadium. On The day oT The evenT dark clouds ThreaTened iTs success, buT in spiTe oT showers The picnic Took place while joyous youTh laughed aT NaTure's Tears. We enioyed ourselves playing ouTdoor games wiTh hoT TrankTurTers and cold cokes Tor our reward. ATTer a wonderTul vacaTion, SepTember musT come, buT you were really happy To reTurn To school and reveal To your chums The evenTs oT The summer. IT was hard seTTling down To sTudies, because The elevenTh grade includes a heavy schedule. The pasT picnic was such a success, ThaT The class voTed Tor a repeaT perTormance.

FooTball season arrived wiTh a greaT maioriTy oT our boys on The Team. The class wishes To pay TribuTe To our TighTing TooTbail Team who Took pride in Their vicTories and were True sporTsmen in deTeaT. As IIA's we sponsored The annual Thanksgiving Day program which consisTed oT picTuresque porTraiTs explained by a small group OT choral speakers, and woven around The idea oT Thanks Tor peace. One morning in January I946, you suddenly awoke and Tound yourselT in IZB. IT was hard To believe ThaT aT lasT you had reached The l2Th grade, when iT seemed only yesTerday ThaT you Timidly walked Through The doors oT WilmingTon High School Tor The TirsT Time. During This Term, sTudenTs who parTicipaTed in exTra acTiviTies iusTly earned honored posiTions, such as The Leader Corps girls, who splendidly supervised all work in sporTs. OThers were equally ouTsTanding working willingly and conTribuT- ing unselTishly Tor The improvemenT oT The school. The social evenT This year oTTered music and dancing, buT The pupils and guesTs preTerred The various games. Mr. Fulmer, always an excellenT principal, proved To be a champ aT checkers. Miss FriTz was an added aTTracTion perTorming TorTune Telling wiTh cards. The end oT The Term broughT The STudenT Council elecTions, wiTh colorTul and clever posTers sTrung all over The school. The resulTs Tound William Hooper PresidenT, and Diane Kipp Vice-PresidenT. ATTer eleven and one-halT years OT work, sTudy, sacriTice, and enioymenT, The lasT year was greaTed wiTh a deep sigh. We have Tinally reached The lasT rung oT The ladder, where we were presenTed wiTh a ring represenTing hard sTudy and loyalTy To The school. Early preparaTions were being made Tor graduaTion, and one oT The earliesT was The siTTing Tor The picTures. WhaT a day oT exciTemenT ThaT was, wiTh The boys hand- some in Their besT suiTs and beaming Taces, and The girls very aTTracTive wiTh Their neaT and Trim appearances. The work To be accomplished in such a shorT Time wiTh such a small class was Tremendous. and many pupils carried sTaggering schedules, Though They had loTs OT Tun. This accounT was prepared beTore The anTicipaTed besT Times: The perTormance oT The hilarious comedy. You Can'T Take lT WiTh You : senior odd day, wiTh our original idea oT red devil caps: and ThaT unprecedenTed evenT, our own senior prom. AT This Time The graduaTing Class oT I947 wishes To express sincere graTiTude To our sponsor, Miss ElizabeTh Cloud, who guided The group Through Three years oT high school and who carried on her shoulders The burdens oT each individual, and To The WilmingTon High School TaculTy Tor Their aid and cooperaTion in all The acTivi- Ties oT our high school liTe including Their excellenT guidance and Their unTiring eTTorTs in providing us wiTh a Thorough educaTion. The brand oT WilmingTon High School has been burned inTo our hearTs, There To sTay Torever.
