THE WAR MEMORIAL Hughes honors the students who served in World War I and World War II. Upon entering the front hall, one sees on either side, the lunettes designed by Clement J. Barnhorn, the well known sculptor. Obedience to Authority is the central theme of the lunettes. This is appropriate not only for the memorial, but also as a guiding inspiration for Hughes students at all times. Beneath the lunettes are inscribed the names of Hughes men and women who gave their lives for their country. The lunettes were presented by the Art League and the student body.

TRADITIONS Hughes students enjoy their best year when they are seniors. Their good times are both for fun and for serious accomplishments. Early in the fall, they celebrate Bowtie and Pigtail Day. Boys come to school adorned in bow ties of all sizes and descriptions. Girls wear pigtails and bright ribbons, carry teddy bears and dolls, and lick lollipops. In the evening the senior class gives a dance at which the wearers of the most unusual bow ties and pigtails receive prizes. A little different is the Senior-Junior Prom in the spring. This is a semi-formal dance held in a large ballroom with an orchestra. It is a big event in the lives of seniors and juniors, for the seniors usually invite the junior class. Class officers with a committee plan the affair. Members of the faculty chaperone the dance. The Honor Society, organized in l948, welcomes seniors with four- year averages of ninety or above, and six juniors with the highest scholastic ratings in their class. Members are received in March. The six juniors form the executive body for the next year. The last school day of the year is Senior Class Day. Honors, scholar- ships and other commendations are awarded on this day. On this day, the president of the senior class presents his successor with the Hughes shield, which bears the motto, A'Deo Et Patriaef, A'For God and Country. Seniors pose with heads made by Ari- s+uden+s, for Bow+ie and Pig+ail Day. The Rockwood Founlain, Boy and Dolphin, by Clemen+ J. Barnhorn, is a cen+er for informal mee+ings in 'rhe fronl' corridor.

DEO ET PATRIAE ln its hundred years Hughes has contributed to the armed forces in every military conflict of our country. The Civil War, the Spanish-American War, World War I, and Worlcl War II, all had Hughes heroes. In each succeeding conflict, the student body of Hughes was larger, and the demands of national defense were greater. In World War II, not only men who had been Hughes students were in their country's service, but many women, too. As the 1951 annual goes to press, there are more than ninety Hughes boys in the Armed Forces, some in training in the United States, and some in combat in Korea. Again Hughes fulfills her motto, Deo et Patriaef' in September I950, Jim Chadburn and Bill Kehrer. seniors, saici goodbye fo Hughes as 'rhey lefi' fo go info Army iraining camps. Page 'twenty-three
