Dedication For the first time in five years, El Dorado Junior College has had its full contingent of male personnel. At the beginning of the current school year, nearly 175 veterans flocked to the portals of E. J. C. in pur- suit of higher learning. Most of them had been away from home from three to five years, and in some cases longer. They represent every branch of service and served in every theatre of war from Europe to Japan and from Alaska to New Zealand. They have seen people of all races, creeds, and colors, in all walks of life. Their years of service have given them a first- hand view of life and have made them realize the true value of education. Aided by the G. I. Bill, they are now back in Juco, picking up the broken strings of their education. A glance at the honor roll each nine weeks will demon- strate the fact that these young men have not lost the knack of learning. A glance at the scores in inter- collegiate sports will show that they have made mater- ial gains on the fields of friendly strife. They have proved themselves to be valuable assets to E. J. C. in all phases of curricular and extra-curricular acti- vities. The Juco faculty members have extended them every courtesy, and they have accepted without flinch- ing the responsibilities of college students. Through their conscientious efforts, they have helped to estab- lish E. J. C. in a prominent position on the map. To all those young men who were first in war and who are now preparing themselves to be first in peace, this annual is proudly dedicated.
