They give blind obedi- ence to orders. There is little chance to rise out of the social group into which they are born. Their minds are conditioned, their tongues are held in leash, their spirits are bound within limits. They do not dare question the activities of dheir leaders. Youth is trained to do the will of a dictator in a totalitarian stlate. In Amefica, the State exists for its citizens. You participate in the government. lYou may rise in social status, wealth, and power to the de- gree that your capacities permit. Freedom of speech, freedom of religion. freedom of pblitical action are your birthright. Your leaders are responsible to you for their words and deeds. Youth is educated for a free citizenship in a democracy. l This contrast points out the issue in the present world struggle: free- dom for the human mind and spirit, the right of the individual to develop to the full his talents and abilities and to make the most of his opportuni- ties. These arte the things for which we fight. Patriotism demands that each of us does all he can to win the war. We feel the urge to forego normal pursuits and engage in some activity di- rectly relatedl to the obvious tasks laid down for our armed forces. It is, therefore, sometimes hard for us who remain in school, whether as teachers or pupils, to alccept our present duty, to do the daily task that confronts us to the best of our ability. l A long far means that many now in school will in course of time be called upon o replace those who have gone before. For them, schooling is as truly a period of preparation as basic training is for a private in the Army. Whether the war be long or short, this country of ours will need youth well pirepared to carry on with energy and optimism the normal peacetime pursuits that will lift the level of man out of the slough of war's destruction. T0 win the war and be unable to achieve this result would be ironic. To each bne, comes the clear challenge to make the most of the oppor- tunities that the moment affords. Restless daydreaming and careless indif- ference play into the hands of the enemy. As good Americans, let us do our part-now. To all of Jpu, as you come to the close of your high school course, your teachers extefid best wishes and the hope that you will be active partici- pants, in peace as well as in war, in building a better world. l l i l ' Ma, Gaia, -Q., . .J V., i' l.41m'4'l lunxm-S iw XIV. lzulv. who hui 1-.zalvllwl mu' I1 Illl' YCZITS ut lH'lPQl'CSS : - ' iulcrcsl mth Irlvwilx' xml Iulptul .xml 14+ xxlnml xx NlIlk'l'I'L' Ql'Ill ill uh-.

We accom- plished something when we elected Richard Roemmelt, Presidentg Nancy Ken- nedy, V ce-Presidentg Grant Pealer, Treasurer, Hope Smith, Secretary. As Freshies we were quite active, despite our titanic struggles. In your Sophomore year we elected Tom Sullivan, Nancy Kennedy, Grace Quinn, and John Sullivan to the offices of President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer. Skating parties and carnivals were the highlights of our second year. ig Donning the traditional red andvwhite, we proudly chose John Sullivan, June Curran, Joyce Hanlon and Thad Carpenter as officers. On Junior Day j' we had the privilege of hearing Father Schwab. In the evening we held the Jun- A ior Prom with Virginia Knuth and NValter Cornell as co-chairmen. J At last we are Seniors! Like old veterans we proceeded with the ritual S of election. Roderick Prechtl, Joyce Hanlon, Thad Carpenteiiand June Curran were installed. Then we really got going! One of the most popular events of the ii year was the Student Council Carnival with Roderick Prechtl and Joyce Hanlon reigning ras King and Queen. In January Alice Diveny and Tom Iszard were co- chairmerf for the Torch Dance. Sweet memories! The "Holiday Hop." the skat- ing party and the "May Dance" rounded out a most successful year. Then we , imparted our good cheer to the school by presenting a super Senior Musical K, with Charlotte Rutty and William Murphey as co-chairmen. Lois Hamilton and James Cronin were the stars of "And Came the Spring," our noteworthy Senior Play. The cast gave perfect and public evidence of their ability. The highlight of the whole year, however, was Senior Day, followed by the Senior Banquet, a memorable event which the members of the Senior Class will never forget. if With graduation only a few weeks in the future, we are beginning to real- J ize what our four year career has meant. Now we are sorry to leave, for wg will greatly miss our li. F.

Dear Classmates: It is hard to believe that nearly four years have passed since we made our wide-eyed entrance into the busy halls of the Elmira Free Academy. Yet the experience and knowledge gained through these years cannot be measured in terms of time. When we gone by, howev our friends and who have left u. and hope that, ir We thank and assistance, X entered high school, the war seemed very remote to us. As the years have er, its meaning has become unmistakably clear through the loss of many of classmates to the service. As we prepare for graduation, we wish these boys s to know that we regard them as the honored part of our graduating class, 1 spirit, they are taking part in all our activities.

Under the leadership of Helen Parry, the subscription drive was a tremendous success-all previous records were broken. The Ivifltitll' met with stormy weather in the form of depleted literary. busi- ness. and advertising staffs, but she weathered the storm. Although the staff was not able to attend the lf. S. P. A. convention at Syracuse. we attained the 'tsuperior rating." lly the end of the first term. many changes had been made in the executive section of the I'imlc.r. Vliilliam Owen, advertising manager, entered the Army, and Flugene Vick took his place. Virginia Knuth became Associate Editor to replace Sylvia Adriance and Helen Horwitz. At the resignation of -loan NYest- wood, Ann Garvey was appointed News liditor, while George Kramer took over the position of Feature Editor vacated by Virginia Knuth. "The NVitches Brew," a skit presented by the I'imle.r Staff at a pep assem- bly, was praised far and wide. A vote of confidence was given to us when the student body went over the top with more than a thousand subscriptions, more than were ever sold before in a mid-term subscription drive. The Tag Day as- sembly was a musicale, in which only school talent was used. During the year, twelve issues of the l'iudf.r were published. Although there were many war-time difficulties to confront, the staff got there "fastest with the mostestn with news "scoops," features and ads. The annual spring banquet was the climax of a successful voyage. 1i'r'rrt P, Di-iviil. dufeac +1 57 le .. l M ll:-licliturs .lean Swann, Ralph llntehesun .Xrt lirliturs -leanne l'rislnpski, Donalfl lfennecly l.iterary .Xflvistnr Nliss liraee Miller Staff Kleinlmersi Stnver, Hurwitz, Grey, Lynongh, YanKenren, xltllllll, Ohler, lftkinrl, fit-urge, Gressel, llarruws, Schwenkler.
