let Ms up Tribute In the sweep of ecstasy which we are experiencing at the victorious ending of the war, it is most fitting that we pause to pay reverent tribute to the seventy-five boys from this school who have made the supreme sacrifice. They were young. They loved life. They did not want to die. Only a few short years ago they, too, were on our football teams and in our rooting sections. They were to be seen joking and laughing in our hallways between classes. They took their girl friends to the school dances. Then came Pearl Harbor and a world in flames. The campaigns of two hemispheres engulfed them. ln lonely and remote places their strength was forged in bloody battles. Manfully they cleared the seas, stormed the beachheads, flew their bombing missions, dug their foxholes, endured weariness, discouragement, and danger until finally, at scattered points of the far-flung fighting line, they kept their heroic rendezvous with destiny. Among the hedgerows of Normandy, in the deep German forests, along the steep Italian moun- tainsides they died and freedom lived. On the wooden crosses of Iwo Jima and Okinawa their names are shining symbols ofa fortitude that was sublime. Remembering their bravery, we, who are less brave, blink back the tears. May the winds blow gently, may the rains fall lightly on their hallowed graves. May the world which they left too soon learn the ways of peace so that this cruel toll will not have been exacted in vain.
