5 , , HE RY' HI T ORY AT WIL 0 MEMORIAL HIGH CHOOL Birthdays being happy occasions the annual and newspaper staffs are most happy to congratulate Henry, the Hornet, on his 4th anniversary. Four years ago, the Art Editors of the HCJIQNIETIS Nnsr designed Henry to be a guide through out the pages of our yearbook. llenry being quite the man about town, is not only a sports fan and participant, but he plays in the band, is an active member of several clubs, cooperates with outside civic organiza- tions, and he stands for all the ideals of Democracy. Although Henry is graduating this year and there are many events of importance taking place, he feels that a brief review of his younger days would help you to understand his accomplishments or failures, which ever the case may be. To begin with Henry, the Freshman, was a confused lad, and was lost in a world of new faces. He'had little knowledge of high school ways, and it seemed that everything went exactly backwards. However, after a few months the school system was running smoothly and Henry had lost his downcast expression, for now he had learned to run down the cor- ridors, run to lunch and he was able to make it to class by bell time. Henry really belong- ed! Before he knew it his Freshman year was history. He had passed those horrible exams and had qualified for the title of Sophisticated Sophomore. Henry, the Sophomore, did not have all that warehouse of fears to haunt him for he knew that he was a vital part of VVilson. As a Sophomore he concentrated on parties, better grades, pleasing his favorite teacher and he even began to give a little thought to his life's work. Time llew and Henry became a junior before he hardly had time to adjust himself to Sophomore activities. '- .Iunior Henry had not only become larger and more handsome, but his ideas and plans were constantly being changed. He even changed girl friends several times during the year. He enjoyed the vigorous athletic program but he also took time out to think about his future and how he could best serve his school and mankind. Henry enjoyed a trip to Williamslmurg with his fellow studentsg a time when lots of happy memories were stored up. He helped sponsor a lovely junior-Senior Prom for his older brothers and sisters, the Seniors, one of which he became in September of 1952. A picture of Henry today shows him a likable, earnest dignified Senior. Henry whose ambition is to obtain a diploma in june is the busiest, happiest, most anxious lad of which we know. He feels he has learned just about all there is to know and yet each day fhe finds he can add to his store of knowledge. Henry has been a good average student. His ideals were directed into the right channels by facility members and the administrators who were honestly interested in him as an individual. Never did Henry find teachers too busy to talk or work with him. Henry has about decided on his life's work which he looks forward to as that period of time beginning after june and graduation. We heartily congratulate Henry on all that he has done and we wish him the most suc- cessful future possible in whatever field of work he chooses. Good luck and Good-bye from Henry the Hornet. Z
