An old adage says, “To the victor belong the spoils.” Interpreted in its poorest sense, this infers that someone got the better of someone else by superior strategy or under- handed means, and so reaped an undeserved reward. But it can be interpreted in a better sense to mean that the victory was won by fair means after a hard struggle, and the victor received a just re- ward. As you, the members of the class of 1944, leave Howe High, CYRIL D. LOCKE Principal your diplomas represent the just spoils of a victory won by your own efforts under the guidance of your teachers. With you go our hopes and wishes for more such victories in the future. i CYRIL D. LOCKE, Principal — 6
