986560 Ifion fo ence The future is not so bright as it once was and the world is not so kind to its children. We have been told these things over and over. But we do not believe them. We believe that it is our job, and your job, too, to make the world the way we want it, to correct the faults that pre- vious generations have left behind. We must add our bit of culture, invention, and beauty if we are to be good citizens ' These things will not be easy to achieve, but no worth while thing comes easily to those who desire it. We will have to till the ground before we can plant the seeds of our ideals. Therefore, we, the class of 1945, dedicate this year- book, which holds our hopes, dreams, and deep prayers, to Peace. 3

OIWQ lfU0lf' There are all sorts of collectors in this world. Some hunt bugs and others go into ecstasies over stamps and match folders, but there is one thing we all collect-memories. They are intangible, you can't file them away for safe- keeping, yet some little thing will bring them back-a color, a song, or perhaps a picture. That is where the Red and Black comes in. Between the covers we have collected pictures which we hope show every side of Fostoria High. All the clubs are here, and the teams, and the classes. We have attempted to picture lite at F.H.S. in the senior year of those who will be graduated in l945. This was the year that Her Tears Flowed Like Wine, and the root of the Hi-Spot shook with the male chorus on Ac- centuate the Positive. This was the year that our con- versation made no sense to outsiders, who probably had visions of murder and mayhem when they heard l'll beat your little head in, and knock yourself out. Every- thing from cokes to homework was gunk, and a banker might have felt at home with the phrase big deal-small profit. Of course, there are many things that must of neces- sity be left out. No mere book could catch the sound of the yelling at the games, or record the weird odors that drift up from the chemistry lab. But with the Red and Black for a key we hope that you will be able to see, hear, and smell them for yourself. Well, have fun with it-now-and for as long as it holds together. -Allegra Pasqualetti, Editor z
