UUH PHI CIPAL To the Seniors of 1944: When World War I was in progress, I was a pupil in Clairton High School. I shall never forget how excited we were that April day when Congress de- clared wary how solemn We all were when our principal told us of the first graduates to make the supreme sacrifice, and how thrilled we were when we learned of the American victories at Chateau-Thierry, the Argonne, and Belleau Woods. I bought Thrift Stamps and sold Liberty Bonds g ate oleo and bread made of flour substitutes 5 and wept with the relatives and friends of draftees at railroad depots. I hoped the war would last a long time so that I would be old enough to join up. Finally, I entered into the wild and delirious celebrations of the Armistice that came in the midst of a flu holiday period. Now in the midst of World War II I find that I must experience all of the same emotions in the same environment. I find myself again in the midst of the problems of the high-school pupil of another War generation. I find myself affected by all the upheavals that cause unrest and uncertainty in pupils. The motto of the Class of 1921 was Impossible Is Un-American. The years that followed the first World War amply demonstrated the inherent truth of that motto. Things which are now commonplaces I never imagined nor dreamed of-radio, plastics, air travel, sulfa drugs, pencillin. I believe there is still a great future for the high-school pupil of today, and that that which looms as impossible or improbable today will be a commonplace of tomorrow. In that confidence I bid you to dare greatly. Cordially yours, I jf 7
