The concept of the Good Neighbor envisages an individual understanding and appreciation which goes much beyond the formal relations of government to govern- ment or of trader to trader. Economic and political relations must be buttressed by a more conscious and intense feeling on our part for the human values involved-the emotions, sentiments, sense of beauty, and creative genious of the peoples of the other American Republics. In our unity, we shall find increasing strength, strength to defend the ideals which all of us in the New World have come to hold more dear than life itself. SUMNER WELLES Under Secretary of State RUFUS BL von KLEINSMID A short time ago, an oiiicial in active service in one of the warring nations of the world dropped in at the office for a brief call. We discussed one sub- ject only, and that was ways to achieve peace and to preserve it. Even one act of War leaves much to be retrieved before peaceful relations can be established again, and the nation to which this officer belonged had piled war'upon War. How hopeless then it seemed to reach any goal of common understanding! It is interesting, however, and significant that we both agree that since all treaties of peace must be con- structed around a common conference tableg the world must learn to go to conference before it goes to war. It is difficult, even impossible, to estab- lish the ways of peace through the practice of war. Peace requires understanding and sympathy, respect, and goodwill. These can hardly be achieved through battle and conflict, they must be achieved, if at all, throfugh mutual sacrifice. As Kant says, No treaty of peace shall be esteemed valid on which is tacitly reserved matter for future war. No forced peace following international coniiict can be free of such reservation. Let me congratulate the Los Angeles High School and the Blue and White Semi-Annual upon laying the emphasis upon youth's individual responsibility for peaceful international relations. You are learn- ing the value of conference in human affairs and will live to practice it. Come let us reason togeth- er is the expression of necessity in human affairs. To reason is to think, and to think is to be. A peace- ful world is a thinking world, and the whole program of your educational experience points to peace when it emphasizes the privilege and obligation to reason. All good wishes are yours. Faithfully yours, RUFUS B. von KLEINSMID president, University of Southern California I EN, . DA VID P. BARRO WS I respond to your invitation to present a few words in dedication of the Blue and White. In the first place, and I cannot avoid mentioning this, the world war overshadows the American peopleg and as a nation, we are arming as never be- fore during peace. The summons to enter military service may come to many of you, or you may enter it voluntarily. Let me assure you that if you enter the United States Army or Navy, you are not engag- ing in an experience from which you would shrink or which will necessarily be unfortunate for you. Accepted in the right spirit, it well may be the most satisfying experience of your entire life. It is not only capable of strengthening the life of a young man on all sides of his activity, but out of its exper- iences and companionship may be written a record which you will forever after recall with satisfaction and that never seems to stale in its recounting. And I would further remind you that in the words of John Milton, who was himself a soldier under Crom- well, an adequate education .is something that fits every man for the duties of life not only in peace but in war. A great democratic institution like the school which you are leaving represents all sorts and con- ditions of human life and of the rewards of lifeg and to many, whose family circumstances have been unfortunate, the doors of opportunity in this state may seem narrow and hard to pass through, I wish to assure you that they are not closed. Great and attractive as are the possibilities of a good life in this state already, there is a greater wellbeing ulti- mately ahead of usg and for those who have com- pleted with distinction the training so liberally of- ferred by this state to its sons and daughters, there exist the means whereby lives of dignity, of service, and of distinction may be gained.

OLIVER During the sixty-eight years of its history, Los Angeles High School has emphasized character, scholarship, patriotism, civic responsibility, leadership, sportsmanship, and happiness. The Faculty and students have worked together in establishing goodwill and cooperation. The theme this year, Youth's Personal Responsibility for Peaceful International Relations, is of tremendous importance. The present World War is affecting all of the World. The development of airplanes has completely changed warfare. Civilians are being killed, their homes and their business interests are being destroyed. Therefore the Youth of today must very definitely begin a program that will eliminate War. The boys and girls of America must accept the challenge to develop kindly relationships among the nations of the World rather than misunderstanding and hatred. We hope that the Youth of Amrica may present to the Youth of all nations ideals that Will bring success and happiness to all of the nations. l To the members of the graduating class of Summer 1941, the parents, faculty mem- bers, and other students of Los Angeles High School extend to you most sincere appre- ciation for your leadership and for your excellent record. May each of you have happi- ness and success throughout your lives, and may you become genuine, active citizens of our great America. May Los Angeles High School, in the many years that are ahead, carry on vvith the highest ideals of life. With best personal Wishes I am, - Very sincerely yours, O . r lf-1 VICE-PRINCIPALS' MESSAGES At a time when the dream of the ages-Peace On Earth, Good Will Toward Men-seems most im- possible of realization, when nation is warring a- gainst nation, and treachery and hatred are rife, the responsibility of youth for the promotion and for the ultimate accomplishment of international peace is great. Fortunately, discouragement and pessimism cannot daunt the hope, the faith, and the courage of youth- Theirs is the vision to penetrate the darkness that engulfs today's world and to awaken in the hearts of men deeper and more Worthy yearnings for an understanding of the meaning of the brother- hood of man. Theirs is the task of finding ways of meeting this great world need. Today, young people must come to a full real- ization of their great responsibility. Now in their every day life, not in the remote future, must they learn to consider group as well as individual inter- ests and welfare. Today's challenge demands that they not only phrase, but that they live. those great principles upon which our American democracy is founded .......... tolerance, equity, and justice for all. The time has .come when youth must learn to iind satifaction and happiness in the service of hu- manity and in the continuous striving toward the accomplishment of the great goal of democracy, a more abundant life for all. This is youth's challenge, this is youth's re- sponsibility inthe present crisis. aa.: ima Chaos and confusion rule the world as this year's class prepares to graduate. Bewilderment is the out- standing emotion as our youth surveys the future. Whether it be peace or war for our nation, we know that a peace based on economic need or racial de- mands will never be permanent. The nation must return to simple rules of conduct. We cannot foresee the results of steps we are about to take. The test of what is right and what is wrong is the only test that can clear the way for an action that is worthy of defending. The youth of the only country that still gives thought to education and intellectual and cul- tural life should lead the way in stating and striving for the best of these democatic ideals.

The Oliver family, as student, teacher, or executive, has known them all. On entering the office of Mr. Oliver, principal of Los Angeles High School, one im- mediately notices the warmth, friendship, and sincerity of Mr. Oliver's greeting. His keen brown eyes are filled with laughterg and his aristocratic face quickly breaks into smiles. His genial spirit pervades the room. Immediately, one feels a geniune welcomeg instantly one senses that this principal is a leader, a guide, and a comrade to the stu- dents of his school. As one chats with Mr. Oliver, he finds that conversation comes easilyg he discovers that Mr. Oliver is keenly human and friendly. It is certainly not be- neath him to mingle baseball predictions with more learned topics ofhdiscourse. Mr. Oliver retains youthful interests and outlooks. He is truly sympathetic and understand- ing towards the younger generation. One feels that it was not such a long while ago that he was playing second base on the baseball team, or holding down the position of left half on the football squad. The passage of years has served to mellow his understanding and to deepen his insight into the problems of youth. Mr. Oliver's background has, of course, had a great influence in the molding of his character. He comes of true pioneer stock-thoroughly and vigorously American. Indeed, his own family history stretches back to the founding of our nation. At that time, Colo- nel Robert Oliver and Captain Alexander Oliver gave service to their struggling coun- try in the Revolutionary War. Again in the Civil War. Henry Oliver, at that time the youngest captain in the state of Illinois, raised a company of volunteers and joined the Northern forces. The Olivers took a full part in the development of their country, moving ever westward with the frontier. They 'knew the struggle and the challenge of early American life. Then, in 1849, on the wave of the Gold Rush, Mr. Oliver's grandfather, Warner Oliver, arrived in California, leading a weary horse on which rode his wife. All their possessions were contained in a blanket. Their wagon train had been attacked an de- stroyed by savage Indians in crossing the plains. It was only by some miracle that the young couple escaped alive. Here, in California, they found the security and happiness in search of which they had come so far. To them was born a son, who later became county clerk in the small Californian town of Lakeport. This son was Mr. 0liver's father. In May 1876, Ernest W. Oliver was born. He was the youngest of four and the only boy. As soon as he was old enough to contemplate a career, at about four years of age, he dreamed of becoming a stagecoach driver. How he admired the flourish and glory of the stagecoach's thundering entrance into the little town! He eagerly anticipated the day when he would ride with the fury of the wind into Lakeport and snap his Whip above four dashing horses. Another childhood ambition, somewhat in contrast to the first, was to play the pipe organ, for Mr. Oliver has always had a great love of music. As a boy, he sang solo parts in the choir. Ernest Warner Gliver Mr. Oliver's dreams of a rural future were cut short, however, upon the death of his father, Mr. Henry Oliver, in a railroad accident. After this tragic episode, Mrs. Oliver took her four children to the small town of Los Angeles, which even then Was noted for its excellent schools. Los Angeles High School had just moved into the red schoolhouse on Fort Moore Hill when Mr. Oliver entered the ninth grade, and his was the first class to spend all four high school years in this new buiding. Athletics, then as now, were his great love, and he took an active part in all the sports available. He was a boy who always wanted to win and was exhuberant when his team was victorious. However, he was philosophically cheerful when it lost. As Los Angeles High School was the only high school in the city at that time, the teams had to compete with the local col- leges. The football team of which he was a valuable member, still remembers the day when L. A. won from U. S. C. Not satisfied, however, to rest upon the laurels garnered from his athletic prowess, Mr. Oliver organized and commanded the Los Angeles High School Cadets, a small body of boys whose reward for long and patient drilling was participation in the annual La Fiesta Parade. Then, in his senior year, Mr. Oliver be- came president of Star and Crescent, which was equivalent to our Student Body organ- ization. In 1895, he graduated from the school which he was later to direct. After graduation, Mr. Oliver learned the tile setting trade, for his mother, always mindful of the best interests of her boy, wished him to learn to use his hands as well as his head. He continued at work for a year and a half until he entered the University of California at Berkeley in S'96. At this time, his great talent for leadership again mania fested itself, and he became Senior Captain of the University's Battalion. At the time of Mr. Oliver's graduation in 1900, one of his favorite mentors, Professor Moses, was appointed a commissioner to the Philippines and was charged with the task of establishing civil government on the Islands. Dr. Moses very graciously extended an invitation to Mr. Oliver to accompany him and to aid him in establishing schools. Mr. Oliver first taught in the Nautical Academyg then he became principal in an American day and night school. In his leisure time, he carried baseball kits about the island to teach the natives this great American game. The words strike and out soon became a part of the vocabularies of the non-English speaking natives. He took advantage of his vacations by traveling through China, Japan, and India. During his stay on the Islands, he made a trip home by way of the Pacific Ocean and stopped for a short while at Hono- lulu. His love of nature was never failing. Mr. Oliver etched in his memory the glorious sunsets, which he still recalls. After seven years of helpful assistance in establishing American principles of Democracy, Mr. Oliver made his final return home by way of Singapore, India, Egypt, Italy, Switzerland, France and England. Mr. Oliver was not to be permitted to sink into idleness. In 1908. three months after returning to the United States, he was asked to come to Los Angeles High School to teach. The familiar rivalry sprang up once again between this school and Polytechnic High School, as both schools wanted Mr. Oliver. But Mr. Housh, then principal of L.A. High, advanced the argument that Mr. Oliver had graduated from Los Angeles High School, and so the battle was won. For three years, Mr. Oliver taught mathematics and history and coached baseball, and was commandant of L.A.H.S.Cadets.

Annual is this statement: Although Mr. Oliver only came into the school at the begin- ning of the league season, the team has profited greatly by his tireless efforts. He makes the men work hard and practice regularly, and has done much toward developing a championship team. In 1911, Mr. Oliver became vice-principal to Mr. Housh. At the time of the United States' entrance in the World War, Mr'. Oliver was not of fighting ageg but he volunteered and was sent to Camp Lewis to take charge of the Y. M. C.A. Hut. A few months later, when older men were being called, he enlisted in the heavy artillery in the regular army at Fort MacArthur where mathematicians were needed. .He was ready to accept the position of lieutenant. When the armistice was signed, Mr. Shiels, then superintendent of schools in Los Angeles, immediately made a plea that Mr. Oliver be retired from the army because he was needed so much in Los Angeles High School. Mr. Oliver, again taking part in school life, was one of the committee 'who selected the present site of our school. He insisted that the grounds be large enough for adequate athletic facilities. The Board of Education expressed anxiety regarding this selection because the site was beyond the street car terminus, and it was necessary to induce the company to extend the line to West Boulevard. In 1925 at the death of Mr. Housh, Mr. Oliver succeeded him as principal. Since then, Los Angeles High School has had the most progressive and inspiring program of its entire history. It is to his love of music that we owe the idea for our beautiful chimes which distinguish Los Angeles High School from all other schools in the city, and to his appreciation of the importance of physical fitness that we have our excellent Oliver Swimming Pool. Mr. Oliver has a love and great interest in people. He tries to know as many of his students as possible, he claims as his friends all the soldiers whose names appear on the Memorial window of our beautiful Memorial Library. Perhaps, it may in some respects be due to the fact that he has two sons of his own that he is so understanding with young people. Now, on the eve of his retirement, Mr. Oliver is greatly beloved by his students as well as by the teachers, parents, and people who have come to know him and to appre- ciate his fine, devoted, and untiring services in the field of education. As this term draws to a close, it marks the end of his brilliant term as principal. Simply and sincerely Mr. Oliver says to the students of his school, I want you to feel that this is your school g and as he bids farewell to the duties and activities of being principal, he voices with assurance and affection the belief that Los Angeles High will carry on as a school that believes in young people, a school that has a genuine desire to build up their character and citizenship, to give them happiness but, above everything else, a feeling of respon- sibilityf' Yes, Mr. Oliver, Los Angeles High will carry on, believing in youth, believing in America, and upholding the ideals that you have so desired us to possess. We shall take closer to our hearts the motto: Obedience to Lawg Respect for Others: Mastery of Self: Joy in Service: These Constitute Life, praying that it may constitute our lives as nobly and successfully as it has molded yours. Ernest Oliver W , M Uwijff my Sig M QQ Sifiifi ,W W W cs.:-:jk M WA' ms Swv TRIBUTES It is a distinct pleasure to add my word of appreciation to the many tributes being voiced in honor of Mr. Oliver, the retiring principal of the Los Angeles High School.- No former principal has had quite the opportunity granted to him of contributing effectively to the upbuilding of that great school, largely because he was educated in that school, served there as teacher, vice-principal of boys, and then in the passing of Mr. Housh, he accepted the principalship. The school has richly profited by these two long regimes under men of similar views on high school education and administrative policies. After graduation from the University of California at Berkeley, Mr. Oliver very wisely took up educational work in the Philippine Islands which proved to be a contin- uation of his own education in a different kind of world. During the World VVar, he served for a period as guide and helper to men in Camp Lewis. Mr. Oliver has been distinguished for his sympathetic understanding of the 'flong, long thoughts and ideals of youth and for his very great effort to plan activities to fur- ther the realization of their physical well-being and their mental wholesomeness. He may retire with the happy consciousness of having done a fine man's work for the youth of his country, his city, and his very own school. He will retire not to ease, for such as Mr. Oliver do not desire or seek ease, he will still seek the keen joy of hav- ing a real part somewhere in the world's work. SUSAN DORSEY Former teacher of Latin, head of the language department and girls' vice-principal of Los Angeles High School, former assistant-superintendent and superintendent of schools, Los Angeles, California. The United States can boast no high school with finer traditions than those of the Los Angeles High School. Few schools have as fine traditions. The traditions and the spirit of the school and the contribution to the lives of Los Angeles High School pupils have been born of the sacrifices, the gifts, and the great works of men and women. Ernest W. Oliver, Principal, has made an extraordinary contribution to the life his- tory of the school. His dynamic, practical righteousness, his influential leadership, his patient, vigorous, and kindly personality, and his sympathetic policy of administrative guidance are among the greatest of his contributions to education in this city and to Los Angeles High School. As Mr. Oliver notes these expressions. we all express the hope for great happiness during many years ahead. We extend words of congratulation upon his success. In simple words and modest manner, for myself and for many others in our schools who are his true, admiring friends, I would have him receive a Thank you, Mr. Oliver, for all you've meant to me. I know you as one of my best and understanding friends. VIERLING KERSEY V Superintendent of schools, Los Angeles, California. Appreciation No good work ever ends.

Wright English Commercial Boys' Physical English English Music Commercial Education Administration Youth,s Individual Responsibility for Peaceful International Relationsf' this is the theme which we, the Summer Class of 1941, have chosen. It embodies the sincere de- termination for a peaceful, friendly community of nations which we, as youth, must strive to make a reality. For twenty, all too short weeks, the spirit of our assemblies, the spirit of this Semi-Annual, the spirit of the administration has reflected in many ways this theme. Youth's Individual Responsibility . . . Y' Where can this obligation better be nur- tured than by participation in our democratic student government? Where can youth better be prepared to meet its obligations to society, where can youth better be prepared to appreciate the workings of democratic government than by taking a part in the ad- ministration of the school? And so We perceive that our theme has its foundations firmly rooted in the class-rooms, offices, and assembly halls of the school. Campus life, with the friendly and cooperative relationship existing between the students and the faculty, is a living miniature of the ideal community of nations which we visualize. Our last semester has been replete with memorable events. Farewells had hardly been said to the graduates of W'41 before we found ourselves seated at the helm, as mighty Senior A's. Under the leadership of our student officers whom we had elected in January, the first few weeks passed quickly and smoothly. Forty senior A's were initiated as life members of the California Scholarship Federa- tion at the honor assembly held March fifth, The principal speaker of the program was Dr. Robert G. Cleland, dean of the Faculty at Occidental College. On March eighteenth, a double assembly was held at which Dr. Bernard Clausen spoke to half of the Student Body on the intriguing topic, Anger is Steam. Dr. E. Stan- ley Jones addressed the second assembly with a powerful, spiritual message. Both were inspiring lectures, and those who were privileged to hear them will not soon forget them. March, which had come in like the proverbial lion, spent its fury, and gave way to lamb-like Aprilg but when thirty-three hundred sunburned Romans returned from balmy Easter vacation, they were greeted by a storm of mid-term exams. With ten weeks past, we embarked on the last two and one-half months of our three year journey with high spirits, daunted only by a mild sprinkling of C's and D's on our mid-term report cards. On the morning of Monday, the twenty-eighth of April, superintendent of schools Vierling Kersey addressed the high schools of the city via radio. On Tuesday and Wednesday of the same week, The Great Victor Herbert, a musical motion picture, was shown to the Student Body. Spring fever weather continued into May, and balmy ocean breezes beckoned Ro- mans and Romanettes to the beaches over eagerly-awaited week ends. Nevertheless, the two hundred and ninety boys of our Reserve Officers' Training Corps battalion kept themselves keyed to a high pitch, and spring fever was drilled out of their vocabulary. Weeks of concentrated drill had one goal: the annual Honor School Inspection. All high schools in the Ninth Corps Area compete-3 but only to a few goes the Honor School rating which has been awarded to Los Angeles High School fourteen out of the past fifteen years. And so, to perpetuate one of our highest honors and traditions, those two hundred and ninety privates, corporals, sergeants, and officers gave evidence of their proficiency to Lieutenant Colonel Frederick A. Barker of the United States Army, who was the inspecting officer. The event took place on Housh Field on the afternoon of Friday, May ninth, with the inspection at one o'clock. The cooperation and school spirit of the Student Body were demonstrated by the whole-hearted response to the paper drive which was conducted during the second week of May. The purpose of this drive was to provide funds for the purchase of new band uniforms for next year. On the fifteenth, the studio salon orchestra of Los Angeles City College entertained us at a double assembly. The following Tuesday, May twentieth, an International Goodwill program was presented. This assembly was especially appro- priate for it helped to cement Peaceful International Relations, the theme for the S'41 semester. The spring track season was climaxed by the Western League championship track and field meet. The event took place on the twenty-ninth of May on our own Housh Field, and was the highlight of the Summer '41 athletic season. The coming of summer and the anticipation of graduation made June the memorable month of the semester. Our last few Weeks as students of Los Angeles High School were the most exciting of our school careersg and the June heat did not lessen the quickenlng of our pulses. On the fifth, the semi-annual variety show was presented. Closer coopera- tion between the students and Faculty was exemplified when members of the Faculty combined their talents with those of the students, thus adding to the enjoyment of the audiences. On June the seventh, the annual banquet of the Alumni of Los Angeles High School honored the Old Red School House on the Hill. A landmark in the development of Los Angeles, the little building which stood for years atop Fort Moore Hill gave to our city many of its most prominent educators, politicians, judges, and businessmen. It was fit- ting that this institution, which was in great measure responsible for the growth of Los Angeles, should have been so honored. On the morning of the eleventh, the final review of the semester and the presentation of honors and awards to members of our Reserve Officers' Training Corps battalion took place on Housh Field. The highlight of the occasion was the awarding of the Forbes Ripley Scholarship to Robert Johnson, R.O.T.C. captain of W'41, and his introduction to the family of Forbes Ripley. At the conclusion of this ceremony, the graduating lieutenant colonel presented the battalion to his suc- cessor. Irrepressibly, time fled before us: and it was not long before graduation week was upon us. Vesper Services were conducted on Monday, June twenty-third. Both the music and the speaker emphasized the significance of spiritual guidance for the problems we shall meet throughout our lives. The class of Winter '42 was our guest at Tuesday's Star and Crescent assembly. Bob Tally, whom we had elected as president of the organization, presided over the pro- gram. We were welcomed into the Alumni Association, and the Senior B's presented us with our Star and Crescent pins. After the program, we relaxed to the music of a dance orchestra at the traditional Star and Crescent dance. On Wednesday, we received our Semi-Annuals. and exchanged signatures and the inevitable lots of luck. Semi-Anuuals were distributed to the rest of the school on Thursday. Friday arrived, and with it an oppressive feeling of leaving behind three of the most fruitful years of our lives. The commencement program was presented in the afternoon on Housh Field. Attired in caps and gowns, we walked across the field with slow, de- liberate steps, accompanied by triumphal music which echoed, perhaps, the feeling in the hearts of some of us. After the beautifully delivered commencement speeches, the farewell address was given by our beloved principal, Mr. Ernest W. Oliver, who made this occasion all the more effective because it was his farewell, his Ugraduationf' as well as ours. With the presentation of the diplomas, we formally closed a chapter, perhaps the happiest chapter, of our lives. Some of us will continue our education in the university, some will enter the world of business, and we shall be scattered. But we, the class of Summer 1941, shall forever be united in a bond of memories of this, our last, our happiest, semester. I DAVID COVELL, business manager Farewell I sat on the lawn at Memorial Park And looked at L.A. and thought of the past, I listened to a senior remark That high school was over-this was the last. Yes, this is the last, I added in thought, Just a few more days, a week or two To attain fully the knowledge we've sought, And accomplish the things we have set out to do. To me, it seemed to be a mistake For seniors to sorrow on leaving the place, The knowledge they'd gained would help them to make Much wiser decisions for problems they'd face. So there should be courage and thankfulness For the fortune of having attended L. A., A school which through years has continued to bless Its alumni with prestige and fame every day.

As nation after nation becomes entangled in the magnetic web of war, the dolorous heart-rending cry of humanity, though scarcely audible above the execrable 1-everberations of battle, resounds throughout the universe. This appeal for help can be distinctly heard, but to whom falls the task of mediation? Youth is now enlisting under the banners of peace in a desperate attempt to save tolerance and understanding from extinction. The student is educating himself to distinguish between intrinsic good and evil, and to understand the fundamental laws of human nature as they operate in himself and in others, so that individual life and human relations may be more intelligent, more sound, more productive of individual and general human peace and human welfare. As soon as he begins to gain this knowledge, he starts to lose his intolerance, his hatreds, his destructive and war-like emotions. Thus, youth is providing himself with the fundamental requisites for the promotion of peace in the complex world of today, Through education in distinguishability and in the understanding of human nature, young people are equipping themselves with the tools -with which to mold the principles of peace and to fulfill their responsibility to peaceful international relations. Whatever the lessons of yesterday may have been, the Youth of today stands waiting expectantly and confidently for the lessons of tomorrow. We, the citizens of tomorrow, shall enter the new day with the hope that our golden dream of peace will become a reality. Sincerely, BILL SPRAGINS Student Body president The youth of today is the citizen of tomorrow. How many times we have heard that phrase in recent months! And yet do any of us comprehend the importance of such a statement? Do any of us realize that in these times of unrest and hate, it is the youth of today, with high ideals, for whom the world calling? Indeed, youth is the hope of a chaotic worldg and it is his individual responsibility to satisfy this burning desire. The foundation of our hopes is the molding of youth's character, mind, and ideals. Upon this basis, great deeds are built, deeds which count in life. Truly, these attributes of youth should be molded with the greatest care for it is his action and belief that will influence the future world. Sincerely, BEVERLEY SINCLAIR Student Body secretary l America, today, is the only nation from which glow the rays of peace, rays which must be made everlasting with the tolerance and understanding of youth. So long as this light enables us to see, we should lead the world of destruction out of its confusion and chaos. Tolerance, we have instinctively practiced in our school democracy by association with students of every race and creed. The path to peace lies in the application of the individual's tolerance in accepting another's point of view, not as a contradiction to his own, but as a result of a different environment. The light of peace still exists, but it has been obscured by clouds of hate and greed. Now, these same clouds threaten to envelop us, but we are not blind to their perils. Youth will make every sacridce in order that our rightful heritage, a heritage of peace, may be preserved. Sincerely, JEAN WORKING girls' division co-president Within another decade, we, the young people of today, shall be finding our places in the social and economic worldg and we shall be assuming our responsibilities. Soon, we hope to have authority in governmental affairs. Our duty is to rid the world of everlasting intolerance, and to make an earnest effort to acquire a more sym- pathetic understanding of the less privileged youth of other nations. We have opportunties which other people lack. I sincerely believe we shall be fully competent to undertake the responsibility to create peaceful international relations. Sincerely, PEGGY NEILY girls' division co-president The citizens of the world of tomorrow are the youths of today. Dependent upon us are the peace, welfare, and relations of the future world. We are being prepared for this task at Los Angeles High School. We are obtaining the background upon which we shall base our opinions -of the future. It is the responsibility of every youth in America to prepare himself to be a good citizen. It is the individua1's responsibility to obtain as much from high school as possible.

We see the tower, rising to the sky, And etch it on our memories for all times. We clutch at these last hours, to find them gone, And look our last upon the ivied walls. To rest no more on softly rolling lawn! No more to walk with friends through these cool halls! And yet, we know a new life lies ahead, Fraught with new problems, spanned by greater joy. The world is ours, to conquer without dread- ' To succour Right, Oppression to destroy. MURIEL HURUP, A12 Star and Crescent Society President: Bob Tally Vice-president: Marcheta Holland Secretary: Marlyn Mintie Sponsors: Miss Adams Mrs. McCune For many years, the Star and Crescent Society has served as a tie between the school and its alumni. The society was organized in 1879, not as an alumni association, but as a Natural Science Club, and all the students of the school were members. Later, it was changed to an alumni association because of the increasingly large Student Body, and now only Senior A's and Alumni are members. The name Star and Crescent is symbolic. The star represents Los Angelesg the crescent is Santa Monica Bay: hence, the star in the crescent bay. Each semester, this society has an assembly, held on the last Tuesday of the term. At this time, the Senior A's are presented with Star and Crescent pins, which make them members of the Star and Crescent Society. They are then honored by a dance, given them by the Senior B's. The ideals of this society are in harmony with the theme for this term: Youth's Individual Responsibility for Peaceful International Relations. Friendship ,which is the basis of all peaceful relationships, is the very foundation of this alumni association. Marcheta Holland, Marlyfn, Mintie. UIIIIHIIIIHIIHIIIHS E Sf:- ,.,, , . z..f',.

The class of Winter Forty-two finds itself faced with the many problems of war and of the realization of a just peace. These serious problems call for the highest standards of patriotism. As students of the Senior B class, our best defense and preparation will be trained minds, sound judgments, and tolerance. With study and problems, we are enjoying being seniors. The keen rivalry, shown between the senior B's and the senior A's in the debate and contest, The Class of Winter '42 is camera shy. inter 1942 5 has only helped in building greater and closer friend- i ships between the members of the A and B classes. We wish you the best of luck, senior A's. To our sponsors, Miss Lucy Adams and Mrs. Florence McCune, we owe much for their untiring efforts, sympathetic guidance, and deep interest for Without these, we would have accomplished little. Now, with our crimson and silver colors still flying, it is our sincere hope that We may set as fine an example to the coming senior B's as our senior Ais have established for us, the class of Winter Forty-two. Mary Remmel and Kenneth Pfirrmann These Senior B's look forward with anticipation to their A term. A ! ,I .l- , 5 5. ! fr ffl' gf Top picture, left to right: Gale Long, Katherine Metro, Jim Naltzner.

The good mates who took up their stands To fulfill the captain's commands Were Sylvia VVhite. Who does everything right, And our beautiful Miriam Franz. When business matters oppressed, The stern captain sent a request For David Covellg Tho' he figures quite well, The bookkeeping gave him no rest. Now who were those three in a stew About things some one else ought to do? They were Betty and Sal, That elegant gal, And Marilyn, third of this crew. As we sailed the Athletic Sea, Jean and Lo-is presided at tea, With Eleanor's help, They served crackers of kelp, WVhile we sang of the Land of the Free. Then Betty presented the two Who had helped every one of the crew- Our sponsors so dear, These two, without peer, We cried, Here are orchids to you. When Easter vacation came round, Tag-von Stein and Grace Blue almost drownedg They fell in the sea Called Literaree, Such billows of essays they found! The ones who had most fun of all In a job that takes plenty of gall, With camera set Those photos to get' Regardless of sunshine or squall, Were Homer and John. What a pair! They could scrutinize, study, and stare, With Betty and Dot Who kept what they got And published the worst on a dare. A submarine hove into sight. The captain yelled, Oh, what a plight! Albert Weber just scoffed And noisily laughed, Can't you make out its flag, Blue and White? When Arrotee Sea became rough, Albert Weber soon settled its bluff, You can't frighten me, Aloud then cried he, I'l1 handle all of your stufff' Grace Blue and Sylvia White Stood together and, oh what a sight! Both patriots rare, Becoming a pair, They symbolized Blue and White. The cruise was too short for us all, And everyone started to bawl, Then Baumer began To sketch every man, The Blue and White printed the scrawl. one hundred three , - r go w- fe. .

The official figure is 2731 feet below sea level. The following is a communication received from them, dis- patched from the briny deep. fMaximum dose: two paragraphs a day, taken with large amounts of saltj. It is rumored that our descent to the depths of the sea was due to a desire to mingle in the social whirl fpooll. This is not true, nor is it true that we became sea- sick and fell in. We were pushed, or rather thrown in, by a committee for the Preservation of Sanity on Shipboard. We each had a grouch, not to speak of a head-cold, several separate and indepen- dent cases of pneumonia, and water-on-the knee fto mention only one placeb. The only reason we did not go home was be- cause of the excellent company at the ex- clusive watering place into which we drifted. Exclusive Interviews: Booming a merry greeting, Joe Fish, fthat whale of a guyb, volunteered the startling information that he was cam- paigning for members for his Grinning Greeting Group for the Slay 'em with Salutations Co., Inc. Evidently deciding that the glum expressions on the counten- ances of the enthusiastic editors did not offer likely prospects, Joe took leave. Bob fHave-you-paid-your-dues?D Boltz, personable senior A treasurer, whose mot- to is, A smile with every payment, drop- ped the mysterious hint that he was looking for lost treasure. Eager to be off on his undersea adventure, Bob departed. one hundred four Ji, f ik 29 J I A Social Forecasts: Walker Kisselburgh, yell leader, whis- pered the news that Beverley Sinclair, Student Body secretary, was going to make her dance debut in her own interpretation of Fish Fantasia fapologies to Disneyj. This is going to be one of the starffishl events of the coming season. Rhythmic strains have been heard drifting from the coral reef lately and have given rise to the supposition that the coral has become choral. Bob Tally, Star and Crescent president, volunteered the information that these musical renditions may be credited to Joyce Taylor, She has been using said reef as a secluded place where she practices before making her long-anticipated concert tour. Overseen : A certain mermaid enviously regarded Barbara Hallstone's remarkable dimples. Blythe Boland was trying to persuade a dubious Syd Bartlett into buying an inter- est in his Speedy Grass Dryer fto be used in the Senior Parkj. Doug Fahy was selling bids to a dance by rendering a song with each purchase. Overheard : Don Buckner remarked acidly to Ted Unmack that a certainperson had a sense of humor that was half wind and half wit. Miriam Franz, A. E. fassistant editorj in- dignantly exclaimed to Sylvia White, A. LJ., that That's not shorthandg that's my writ- mg. Gossip: Alberto Aleman and Jose Quintero, those two lively Panamanians, were seen engaged in an argument, resplendent with Spanish expressions that dealt with the if Q5 , A ,, ' ML: f s: ' 'r -rrr c mv., 4' 'ge' N 'Q 'BV weighty problem of how the rhumba really should be taught. Meanwhile, Peggy Neily and Jean Working, girls' division presi- dents, their prospective pupils, waited. Tom Carter, dynamic Periclean leader, came by, observed the plight of the unfor- tunate maidens, and went to their rescue. Tom O'Shaugnessy and Harrison Ma- honey, those two belligerent Irishmen, were seen making a hasty exit on two sea nags. The boys, for once not arguing, were being pursued by Jim Neville, irate senior A president. One of their innocent little jests evidently back-fired, leaving them on the receiving end. Bill Spragins, Student Body chief, was heard rehearsing a speech before an ad- miring group of mermaids. It was discover- ed that the content of the speech concerned remodeling that section of the school com- monly known as the Hash Line Row. Bill, it seems, proposes to use the wind rushing through this tunnel-like structure, in an air-conditioning system to counteract hot air found escaping from many debate classes. Fashion: Fashion highlight of the season was the suit that Blossom Parke, Senior Board president, was seen wearing recently. Made of the very latest sea Ctlweed, it is des- tined to create a fad among the mermaid population. David Covell, business manager of the Semi-Annua1,was noticed sporting a wreath of kelp about his noble brow. In strictest confidence, we inform you that this top piece is not the latest style in men's ha- berdasheryg nor is it a victory token. D. C. has been tearing out so much of his hair in trying to balance the budget that he has become worried about his threat- ened baldness and has tried to camouflage it. Exhibit A or Aftermath of Chemistry Cramming: This remarkable specimen was secured from some assorted flotsam and jetsam seen iloating by. Dear C12H22011 fSugarJ: Tc-night, I have plenty of Ag fsilverh, Au fgoldj, Cu's CcoppersJ, and Ni's Knic- kelsl jingling in my pockets. Meet me at the corner under the Ne fneony lights, and we will go in to have an H20 plus CO2 fsodaj apiece. Then how about going down to the H20 plus NaCl plus ETC foceanb. We might S fsulfurl from the cold, but we'll lcfve it. I realize that I'm as heavy as Pb Cleadj, but we will go in the H20 fwaterj and Zn fzincj or swim. 2Fe203.3H2O CRustyD P. S. I hope that we can Fe fironj out the difficulties if C2H5 CEthylJ iinds out about this. Having been recovered from the water, we shook our water-logged heads sadly and removed from our ears an extensive assortment of marine life. By this time, we were so blue from the cold that several Hsh mistook us for so much ocean water. We were fed up or salted down. Anyway, enough was plenty of being in this social swim. We plan a trip to the Sahara to revive our dampened spirits. We'd rather be dry than Hshy, The S. S. Roman is now dry-docked. one hundred five P0 Lwwmuwcam I Q- Il m Q wig E ii ff gi 1 , 1 A 11 CITY COLLEGE SAFEN WEEK S Laxmcfrom, rcemucm' vucrorz 3 HERBERT' PUBLIC T , Q N!

S'41 Semi-Annual Staff The Blue and White Semi-Annual is the product of individual effort. Through essay, poetry, and short story contests, every student in the school may contribute his bit to this book. One of the joys of being a Senior A is the opportunity of serving on the Semi-Annual staff. This busy group of A12's is carefully selected for scholarship, leadership, special ability, and character. Theirs is the delightful task, under the guidance of two indispensable sponsors, Miss Grace W. Lavayea and Miss Inez Hodge, of assembling the book and watching it slowly grow under their fingers. Their goal is constantly before them, the prized gold medal given each year by the Columbia Scholastic Press Associa- tion to the most outstanding high school yearbooks in the United States. In 1939 and 1940, the Blue and White Semi-Annual won this coveted hcfnorg and this recognition has provided an added incentive to the Summer '41 staff members to make their book equal or surpass their predecessorsi In return for the many hours, spent in planning and preparing numerous pages, the staff members receive valuable experience, not only in the intricacies of the fourth estate, but also in cooperation and responsibility. They leave Los Angeles High School, better and more capable citizens for their twenty weeks of work and fun. This term's staff includes: editor-in-chief, Muriel Hurupg business manager, David Covell 3 assistant editors, Miriam Franz, Sylvia Whiteg literary editors, Grace Blue, Milli- cent Rose Tag-von Steing individual photographic co-managers, Dorothy Allen, Betty Lynn Myers, assistant individual photographic manager, Nancy Jewettg senior A co- editors, Lois Carwile, Betty Kleing circulation manager, Richard Darley, mechanical manager, Roger Hargravesg art editor, John Baumerg military editor, Albert Weberg organization editor, Sally Swearingeng assistant organization editors, Betty Kenney, Mari- lyn Schiller, group photographic manager, Homer Lindy assistant group photographic manager, John Cc-'leg homeroom assistants, Louise Borde, Darline Brigham, Lynne Calla- han, Joan Carroll, Bob Carter, Dick Darley, Virginia Ford, Pat Gallagher, Ernest Grun- wald, Connie Hawkins, Barbara Rhoden, Claire Sheldon, Jeanette Sibley, Lynn Thode, Herbert Tom, Edeana Mae Wood, girls' sport editor, Jean Sinclair. one hundred eighteen Blue and White Daily Q Co-editors-in-chief: Paul L.

As one of the very few high school dailies in the country, the Blue and White does its share to encourage peaceful international relationships, for many editorials and stories printed throughout the term tell of life in other countries of the world. In order to have good international relations, we, in the United States, must first understand our foreign youths before we expect them to understand us.

Realizing this situation, young people of the United States might well look to the South, to the lands of sombreros and mantillas, soft guitar notes and maraca rhythms, gay fiestas and tropical vistas. This year, in keeping with this theory, El Romano has emphasized the value of knowing the customs and traditions of those neighbors to the South, because mutual understanding can come only from acquainting oneself with everyday life of his neigh- bor. Presented bi-monthly, El Romano features jokes, crossword puzzles, and song columns, as Well as regular features, pertaining to South American life. We hope to further interest in these Latin-American countries while acquainting subscribers with the Spanish tongue. Readers have quickly recognized our efforts, for this, the thirtieth volume of the publi- cation, has the largest number of subscribers in its history. Our success also indicates that youth 'keenly realizes the need of intimate understanding and neighborly relations, for the Americas united in thought and purpose can serve as an example of peoples joined in perfect harmony.

WX Editor: Lothrop Mittenthal Assistant editors: Bradbury Clark Marion Dean Ruth Oreck Carl Shultz Morton Yoffee Business manager: Robert Williams Sponsor: Miss Lucille Peyton The Nuntius, now commencing its third decade of publication, has twenty successful years behind it. It is the aim of this paper not only to increase the students' knowledge of the Latin language, but also to further the understanding of the ideals and arts of the Romans and Greeks. The justice and the laws that Rome fostered were developed during peace times. The Romans, too, had for their goal a united world and peaceful world affairs. In many cases, the history of the Greeks and Romans parallels our own. They had invasions, tyrants, traitors, and fifth columnists as well as heroes. The Romans and Greeks were not always tyrants as so often portrayed. Rome must have had hue qualities to be a powerful nation with loyal colonies for so long a time. The Romans did not always exploit conquered lands, but some times developed them. Their justice and laws were respected by the citizens of these colonies. They believe, as we think now, that respect for laws and justice is essential in peaceful international relations. Standing: Mittenthal, Yoffee.

K Debate Squacl P articipating in many forensic contests, the Los Angeles High School debate squad has had a successful season. ln the Beverly Hills National Forensic League Dis- trict Tournament, the four-man team of Marvin Meyer, Peter Gold, Melville Nim- mer, and Robert Meyer Won third place. Margaret Cooper and Robert Johnson went to the finals in the annual Southern California Debating League, held at Mark Keppel high school, and in the Los Angeles City College tournament again proved their mettle by ranking among the four top teams. At Redlands University, Peter Gold and Marvin Meyer achieved second place. Bob Johnson and Margaret Cooper, Jim Weinberg and Bob Lindberg gained glory as both L.A. teams garner- ed a tie for third place. At the National Championships held in Lexington, Ken- tucky, Peter Gold and Marvin Meyer ranked high among the sixty-six top teams in the United States. I nspired by the desire to further their oratorical abilities, the debate squad mem- bers have brought continued glory to Los Angeles High School through the untir- ing efforts of debate coach, Mr. F. Murray Keslar. Roster includes Lee Abbott, Robert Abraham, Myron Aiches, Robert Archer, Robert Bailey, Dennis Beaumont, Larry Burgeson, Philip Burnett, Paul Carter, Thomas Carter, Josef Citron, Bradbury Clark, Margaret Cooper, Marilyn Davis, Jay Gilbert, Peter Gold, William Hall, Warren Hamilton, Earl Holzman, Ro-bert Johnson, Mar- vin Kleber, Leslie Levine, Robert Lindberg, Rex Link, Charles Martin, Marvin Meyer, Louise Mitchell, Thomas Orcutt, Thomas O'Shaughnessy Richard Pur- viance, Bernard Rogers, William Shardlcrw, Bicknell Showers, Bernard Sklar, Mar- jorie Thorson, and James Weinberg.

Third row: Peck, Goldberg, Crowell, David- son, Cramolini, articipating in the traditional inter-class debates, this year's A12 to B10 debate teams presented an array of talent. Holding the spotlight of all conflicts was, of course, the hotly-contested Senior A and B debate. This year saw Tommie 'Carter and Bob Johnson uphold the colors of the Senior A classg the B's chose Margaret Cooper and Bradbury Clark to represent them. The highly spirited A11-B11 debate saw Bob Lindberg and Jim Weinberg do or die for the A11 class. Approaching the rostrum for the B11's were two equally fine debaters, Marvin Spiegelman and Sherwood Malsman. In the so-called freshman contest, William Crowell, Maurice Goldberg, Philip Krasney, and Robert Peck ably upheld the A10 Class as they met the B10 team of Bob Davidson and Buddy Cramolini in an exciting contest. nspired by a wholesome class rivalry, the inter-class debaters held their place of honor through the unceasing efforts of the team members. They have learned how to speak by patient practice, by careful observation and by trial and error. The tenth and eleventh graders are destined to become the debate lettermen of tomorro'w and the members of the National Forensic League of which we are one of about Iive hundred national chapters. oster includes: A12-Thomas lCarter, Robert Johnsong B12-Bradbury Clark, Margaret Cooper: A11-Rc-'bert Lindberg, James NVcinbergg B11-Sherwood Malsman, Marvin Speigelmang B10-Buddy Cramolini, Robert Davidson. one hundred forty-three Y -n The stately tower stands as thz symbol of all we hold dear at Los Angeles High School School Hymn Hail!

Concert master: Richard Wagner Asst. concert mistress: Dorothy Kaplan Treasurer' Curtis Hause Managers: Hugh Allison Denton 'Coker Librarian Secretary Phyllis John Peggy Rogers Student directors: Arnold Parker Helen Stella Conductor: Mrs. Lena Moon Morgan P articipating in many assemblies, the orchestra also provides music for the senior vaudeville, vesper services, Star and Crescent, and commencement exercises. I nspired by the desire to become better musicians, we learn how to interpret music with more feeling, and we improve our technique. All this requires a great amount of cooperation, not only between students and teacher, but between the different groups of instruments. For instance, when Mrs. Morgan is rehearsing a diiiicult part with one group of instruments, the other students must cooperate by remaining quiet. ln doing this, they not only aid Mrs. Morgan a.nd speed rehearsals, but very frequently, they learn some points they did not know before.

Blythe articipation: In 1931, just ten years ago, Miss Verna Blythe organized the first A Cappella Choir in Los Angeles High School. Since then, the Choir has become a versatile and popular organization in our school, it has sung in many sections of the city at the request of many prominent clubs and societies as well as at many of our assembly programs. nspiration: The success enjoyed by the A Cappella has been due to the very capable leadership of Miss Blythe. She has made a permanent friend of every student who has ever been under her direction. We feel that she is not only a teacher of the highest attainment, but that she is one of the best friends that any student of L. A. could ever desire. As the final tribute to her achievements, the A Cappella extends the sincere Wish that she may enjoy many more years of continued health and happiness in her retirement. oster: Marilyn Ahrens, Bob Aldrich, Joe Anderson.

MURIEL I-IURUP, editor-in-chief A grave and forbidding responsibility rests with us, the youth of America. It is a responsibility which we have inherited and from which we cannot withdraw, it is grave because upon it depends the course of civilization, it is forbidding because history shows the utter failure of those who have borne the same responsibility before us. And that responsibility is this: the perpetuation of peace, once it has been established, through friendly, cooperative international relations. Eventually, this war, which has engulfed the Old World, will end, and a Peace will be consummated. Let us hopeg let us pray that peace Will be concluded with malice toward none, with charity for all, that it will be a just peace, a peace with honor for all nations, and equality for all races of people: may the victor be tolerant and merciful toward him whom he has vanquished. Only on these foundations can the basis for a permanent peace be established. Our obligation is to maintain that peaceg and with God's help, we shall be success- ful, for we are strong and vigorous and vital. Under our leadership, may peaceful cooperation between nations become a permanent reality! DAVID COVELL, business manager Per saecula scholae in omnibus nationibus humanis multum valuerunt. In scholis harum civitatum, discipuli docti sunt putare non modo de se ipsis et de sua patria sed etiam de institutis historiisque ceterorum populorum. Cives illius patriae, in qua doctrina depressa est, non possunt comprehendere quantus totus mundus sit et quam coniunctus esse debeatg potius autem de suis parvis desideriis putare consuescunt. Antea in grammatica schola mores varios remotae Chinae, Japani, et Americae Australis, nostri finitimi, discebamus. Hodie, in schola superiore, historiis et detrimen- torum lucrorumque causis studemusg comparamus ceteras populas nobiscum ut eos intellegamus et crescamus In vita cotidiana discipulos ceterarum terrarum in schola saepius quam in parvo orbe nostrarum domuum invenimus. Familiaritas horum discipulorum plus pro amicitiae gentium conficere potest quam lectio ipsa actorum diurnorum. Nunc collegia multa discipulos ceterarum terrarum accipiunt ut vincula amicitiae conflrment. Speremus, nostras scholas, annis futuris, animos discipulorum perpetuo incitaturas esse ut amici- tiam gentium petant. Youth! As you stride in the safety of your beauty and your strength bear the torch aloft, a beacon in the darkening skyg tread a path of light. s Youth! Throw your ideals as a glowing lantern to those who falter in the darkness of hate and fear. Let your young hearts keep alive the flame. SYLVIA WHITE, assistant-editor Youth! Lead those who grope through a troubled night. For them, hope has ceased, has fled frightened and aghast in a world of chaosg they are alone. Youth! Peace struggles alone.

GRACE BLUE, literary co-editor Hay pocos modos de que un estudiante actualmente puede participar en crear rela- ciones mas amistosas con otras naciones. Es verdad que las escuelas pueden inspirar en la mente de los alumnos la necesidad de las relaciones pacificas, el amor hacia el modo democratico de vivir, y las responsabilidades que descansan sobre cada americano, pero los discipulos deben aceptar la obligacion de informarse sobre las costumbres, los modales, la manera de vivir, y, sobre todo, la fllosofia de la vida, de las gentes de los varios paises. Solamente asi puede cultivar el estudiante flo mismo que cualquiera otra personal, la tolerancia hacia todos los pueblos, El sabio Emerson dijo, La unica manera de tener un amigo es serlo. ,goual es el mejor metodo de hacerse amigos nuestros alumnos de la gente de otras naciones? Mi contestacion es esta: estudiando las lenguas extranjeras. El saber la lengua de otra gente es el saber las costumbres de esa gente. A menudo he pensado en que seria mejor que hubiera un idioma internacional. gouanto mas parecerian los distintos paises ser una sola y unida comunidad! gCuanto mas facil seria que las naciones trabajaran juntas para conseguir ese tesoro ilusivo, la paz! Pero, de la misma manera que se diferencian las costumbres y los modales del mundo, asi tambien se diferencian las lenguas. Ya que las condiciones son asi, debe haber un remedio. La buena voluntad de los alumnos para estudiar las lenguas extran- jeras puede ayudar mucho a crear un espiritu amigable. Por desgracia, la declaracion de Rabelais, La mitad del mundo no sabe como Vive la otra mitad es verdad en la epoca actual. Mientras exista esta condicion, habra un abismo el cual no puede atravesar la sonrisa mas cordial de amistad. MILLICENT ROSE TAG-VON STEIN, literary C0-editor Liberty and Justice for all! How relatively few people enjoy these precious bless- ings! Yet how many people yearn for these very same standards of living! They yearn for them because they have not known enough to defend these great heritages, which were willed to them by God, from power-mad man. They did not know how to reason for themselves, but instead, they followed blindly the commands of men whose warped minds were intent upon one goal alone, that of controlling the world for their own per- sonal gains. Had these misguided people been taught to think clearly for themselves, they would have known better than to persecute their own fellow beings for their race or religious beliefs. They would have realized soon enough that freedom of the press, of speech, and the right of assemblage are more desirable, more precious than any other treasures in this world. Today, with all its shortcomings and room for improvement, modern society, as never before in the history of mankind, depends on minds trained to carry on and to develop the educational heritage of the past. Break this line of torch bearers for any considerable period, and the inevitable result must be deterioration, degeneration, and finally social chaos because school and education are the guiding lights of reason. LOIS CARWILE, senior A co-editor In our modern chaotic world, the eradication of intolerance is of vital importance. We in America quote with pride Lincoln's Gettysburg Address ..that all men are created free and equal.. . 3' Here in a democracy, there is no room for racial prejudices, only for tolerance and improvement, In the past twenty years, we have made vast educational strides. Our education has been developed to a higher degree through longer attendance. The importance of knowl- edge is fast being recognized. Schools are now including, in their curricula, the study of the world's social problems and the solutions to them. We do not expect to have them all answered, but we know that it is necessary to have a better understanding of each-nationality before a solution to these problems can be reached. one hundred fifty-seven In our public school system, constant association with people of all classes teaches us toleration and consideration. Through the study of various countries and their customs that are time honored, we achieve to some extent the goal for which we are striving. Down through the ages, education has been the light that leads ignorance and friction into harmony and accordance. Surely, school is the enemy of intolerance and the friend of understanding. BETTY LYNN MYERS, individual co-photomanager With all the chaos being wrought in the world today by power-greedy dictators, we have come to appreciate genuinely the privileges and rights which we have enjoyed so long. We are living in turbulent times, in an era of claims and counter-claims. By watching and sharing vicariously in the loss of liberties of those abroad, we have come to make a striking comparison of the obvious differences between the American way of life and the life of the people of other lands. Here in America, we enjoy all the privileges and rights of a free society, namely, freedom of speech, press, assemblage, equality and justice, liberty under the law. Through the medium of the ballot, we may voice our views and sentimentsg and thus, we take an active part in the functions of our government. We may worship our God according to our own dictates, unhampered, without fear of duress. America truly offers all the opportunities for a great and abiding happiness. By carefully weighing the value of our liberties and by contrasting them with the restrictions imposed by foreign governments upon their subjects, we can not doubt that the American form of government is the highest form of freedom of the people. This is our precious heritageg and if America is to set a precedent, it is incumbent upon the American citizen to accept his responsibilities, to use his freedom to good advantage, and to maintain the ideals of our forefathers, so that America will continue to be an inspiration for world peace. BETTY KLEIN, senior A co-editor Mankind has realized countless ambitions since the dawn of civilization: yet no desire has inspired more men intellectually and spiritually than thoughts of peace. At the same time, the hope for disintegration of hatred and distrust in human existence has lured men to great accomplishments. Men by untold numbers have spent their lives with the light of these hopes leading them toward these goals. Leaders, such as Briand. Kellogg, and Lincoln, have shown the world what it has been seeking. They have even suggested means by which they might be attained. Through their ideas and our constitutional opportunities, we are leading other peaceful states into the fervent desire that the world's destruction will not come because of machinery, regimentation, and mass production methodsg we must continue to extend this conviction. A great problem faces us, one which we failed to solve after the first World Warg that is the stand which we shall take once the problem of imperialism and of world dictatorship is under control. Two choices are oursg either we. as the leaders of the world, shall impose our own democratic plan of government upon rebellious nations for the good of the world at large, or we shall keep to the strictly home front in the economic Held, and plant democratic seeds in our own gardens. We know definitely that some solution must be determined for the good of this earth, and relief must be found soon. This challenge is our problem, the problem of the democracies, to tind that way. HOMER B. LIND, group-photographic manager American youth 'knows well the pledge ending with these words- with liberty and justice for all. Daily, he has promised to uphold the standards of his nation. At this time, when the entire world is being threatened with tyranny, the problem of main- taining his liberty is ever present and vitally serious to the leaders of tomorrow as well as to the present leaders of democracy. Today, in the United States, many opportunities are given youth to assist in car- rying out the aims of this country. Justice to all is attained more rapidly and thoroughly, through education. Education, regardless of race, creed or religion, is offered to all through the public schools. Education, basis of all culture, eliminates the narrow viewpoint from the previously uninformed citizens, and through a broadening of vision, it brings forth understanding and tolerance. Close contact in classes teaches the youth of today that his problems, his likes and dislikes, his happiness and his fears are not original, but are composed of the same elements as are those of his fellow students. Research and open forums conducted by various school clubs bring to View the rea- son for various racial customs and characteristics. The student comes to realize why the ideas and ideals of people are so varied as they must, of necessity, be in a nation the size of his. Youths mingle and learn to appreciate each other for what they are rather than from whence they came. Each is taught that unfair discrimination is not in keeping with the spirit of democracy as it was intended by his forefathers. Through his educa- tion, youth has attained understanding of othersg through understanding, tolerance, and through tolerance comes peace with 'tliberty and justice for all. SALLY SWEARINGEN, organization editor Essays, Poems, anci Stories Buttresseci First place-upper division poetry Like young trees, dwarfed and crowded from the light, That seek the Iirst clean rays of burning day, The youth, throughout this dank and hourless night, Awaits and seeks that meagre dawn-fresh ray Of hope. Their roots by granite held intact, Young saplings drink from streams of melted snow. So does youth, nourished by the fount of fact, Become deep-rooted in its faith-and grow. As young trees on warm summer nights Iind peace From angry winter tempests and spring rainsg So youth, when worldly hurricanes shall cease, Will find that quiet which me11's love ingrains.

It is for us, the youth of the world's greatest democracy, to preserve and to extend this frontier. Individual efforts must be exerted, for only under the democratic system is the individual approach to peace pos- sible. Under every other system of government, all interests of the individual, society, religion, and science are made subject in some way to the development and domination of the state. The whole purpose of existence and indeed the limit of existence is to in- crease the power of the state. The individual is forgotten or no longer exists. And if he does exist, what is the reward offered him for all the repression, for all the sacrifice and deprivation? A greater and more powerful state is promised. A state which will have greater power to crush and subordinate fellow humans is the reward and the goal. This doctrine, this method, is of course the most successful formula for destruction ever concocted by the drivers of the Juggernaut of war. It must be commended for its great powers of hate, cruelty, and intolerance. It must be lauded for its ability to change men to machines and individuals to automata of the state. Subordinated vassals instead of thinking citizens, hate, force, and brutality instead of consideration, tolerance, and thought are the awful accomplishments of the totalitarian doctrine. These methods are its outstanding contributions to our time. Let us recognize them and pass them by. They do not tally a score when evaluated in terms of human happiness. The happiness of a state and of its people is that true goal of government, that tantalizing dream ever driving men onward. In the centuries of change from one form of government to another, in the years of seeking and testing ways of life, one truth has been so obvious and so easily under- stood, and yet it has never been tried with any success. Is it too simple to say that man is happiest during periods of peace? Is it too revolutionary to offer perpetual peace as the solution to international problems? Perhaps it is! Perhaps international peace is yet too great an ideal for a warring world to grasp. In this country, in this democracy, the greatest measure of social, political, and economic security has been attained and the highest degree of civilization achieved that has ever been known to exist. How has this come about? Through the application of the democratic ideal of individualism, civilization and human happiness have steadily mounted. This ideal of individualism 'seems to be the path sought on the road to peace for humanity. This essential of democracy is merely a political principle. In its time, it was a revolutionizing principle to set up a government under the proposition that the powers and form of government should be exercised and determined by the people. Yet like every statute, it was not a quickly formulated pompous theory. The democratic principles of America are the products of centuries of struggle and strife and intelligent effort. Is there reason today to doubt the sanity or the wisdom of these ideals? When evaluated by human and social values, by individual happiness and worth, the answer is NO. Great progress has been made in the fields of mechanics and science, but how far has the field of human evolution progressed? Mechanical minds have created triumphs beyond all expectations, but little thought has been turned to the intelligent direction of human affairs. Perhaps, all other problems are more important, or possibly humanity is too baffling a problem for even the greatest minds. Human relations have progressed but little since ancient timesg indeed they have retrogressed in some cases, for has not mankind perfected far better and more ruthless methods of war? Do we not see three fourths of a civilized world in the shambles and holocaust of modern warfare? To us, the youths, of a democratic land, belongs the greatest heritage on earth, a country built upon sound human and social values. These values are beyond all price today. These values, set up so long ago, can point the way toward faith and tolerance among nations. Our way of life must be made so strong and so successful that its power will vibrate through the world. The strength will be from a nation of individuals who are lovers and believers in enduring peace. No uncertainty of principle, no wavering of ideals or shrinking from truth is a part of such a nation. The stout hearts and sound minds of the country's builders have given us, their descendants, the strength of will and clarity of vision to continue building on their foundations. If the need to build beyond our foundations and into the world presents itself, are we to let the call pass unan- swered? To our generation, a generation of strain and change, comes the realization of the great interdependence of world affairs. Hitherto behind the scenes, the case for peace rested heavily upon the shoulders of those of us who have seen such high peaks of culture and human dignity reached in peace time. The degradation and delusions of war, fatal to any constructive human advancement, are seen by us. The glorious freedom of the individual in America is seen. Drawing nearer, the ever brightening light of a future world wide peace, enduring under democratic ideals, has become more than a flickering shadow. May we do our part to help this flame grow even brighter with the fires of international good faith, world order under law, and a constructive economic effort among all the nations of the world. May we be workers as well as watchers as the frontiers of peace extend outward from America in an ever-widening circle. JANET COMLOSSY, A12. one hundred sixty-three There is an Eternal Peace I can remember faces white with complacency, and voices quiet and reserved as pine trees leaning 'gainst the dawn, and children's laughter like the rustling of aspen leaves in the wind: and I can remember peace. Not the peace of the armistice that was wild with jubilation and sound, nor peace, the word, a smudge on the white cheek of an innocent page, but the peace of the Angelus tolling in the dusk and farmers resting their plough-shares and going home. I can remember the peace in the face of a Madonna, and in the quiet hearts of men who love life's calmest ways. Now they try to tell me, There is no peace, But I do not believe them. Where one purple heart vibrates with the love of God, there is the peace of faith. Where one flower blooms into the fulness of maturity, there is the peace of growth. Where one poet sings of the vision of truth, there is the peace of which all poets have sung, and shall sing. Their song shall rise above the discords of all Wars, and shall echo down the corridors of time, and into the temples of tomorrowg for theirs is the harmony of God. BETTE JANE GERSON, B12 Galatea Youth Came to do homage At the temple of Peace. And he, like Pygmalion, Prayed that the radiant image he beheld Be given life. Minerva heard youth's prayer, And answered softly, Youth, Be comfortedg I This image is not of earthly stone, Not cold and lifeless to the touch, But as warm And filled with life As the love that men bear her. If you would see her live, Then burn the incense of lo've In tireless praise At her feet. GRACE BLUE, A12 5 ,.,.Y ,- America's Future, The Responsibility of Youth Second place-senior A essay The end of high school days marks a milestone in our livesg and We begin to appre- ciate how short is the time until we take our places in the world as adult citizens, responsible in some measure for the conditions that exist there. As we approach gradua- tion, we become more fully aware of the fact that we are in truth that younger genera- tion to Whom the world is looking for its salvation. We have heard this sentiment expressed so many times in the past that the words are apt to become mere meaningless phrases. We must analyze carefully just what is expected of us individuallyg we must bring to the problem a sincere desire to make contributions to the world, in return, perhaps, for the joy of life as we know it, this joy was made possible for us through the efforts of those who have gone before. First, then, what is the most precious heritage we have received, the most valuable possession, which is worthy of being guarded by us and handed on to the next young generation when our times comes to retire. Is it not democracy? If we enumerate those factors which contribute most to our happiness and well being, we find that they are the things which are available only in a free country. And our United States is the last stronghold of democracy and freedom. How has it been preserved, and what can we do to protect it from the forces of aggressors? Our earliest lessons in history teach us of the struggle for existence of the thirteen small colonies against a force which they considered oppressive and tyrannical. Their survival was based on the homely statement of one of their leaders, We must hang together if We are not to hang separately. There is the expression of the necessity for concerted action. It was demonstrated again when Lincoln asserted, at the close of one of the bloodiest wars of history, that freedom and democracy depended upon the main- tenance of the principle of unity. Now the time has come when we must consider Whether or not mere unity of purpose Within our nation is sufficient to preserve our democracy. Other democracies, some of which were well on the way to becoming models for the world in orderly progress, have fallen-Finland, Denmark, Norway. We must recognize that great truth that civilization itself makes a corporate body, and we must assume obligation to one another if we are to have adequate defense against the violence of evil minorities. The proposition of unity must be applied not to one country or one race, but to all civilized countries. What can youth do to bring this to pass? Is this not after all, in its simplest terms, a problem of human relationships? And on this subject, we can find no better guide than the teachings of Christianity applied in a practical manner. Through Christianity, for the first time, men were related not only to their God, but to each otherg and through each other to the organized processes of society. The three outstanding principles are, first, the conception that every individual is included in the love of God. No one is left out. This is a privilege which we share. If we adhere to this, no group of people will ever be reduced to slavery, or banished from fellowship with others. Second, we are commanded to love our neighbor as our- selves. Neighbor, being construed to mean every fellow man on earth, implies a burden to be assumed. Thus privilege and burden go hand in hand. Third, the driving force behind the other two, there must be faith, faith which gives determination to translate the love-thy-neighbor policy into concrete actions and tangible expressions. As long as these principles are embraced, the world progressesg but when spiritual values are made secondary to material values, high positions are accepted with no accompanying sense of the obligation imposedg and injustice and greed result with their consequent Wars and revolutions. Then, as a serious step, let us consider our own obligation to ourselves, to our fellows, to our country, to God. Let us spend our strength in making the small portion of the world in which we live cleaner, better, pleasanter. Our contribution, however small, is a manifestation of our assuming our places in the scheme of civilization. In this way, we become a part of society. If We, as a united younger generation, adopt this as our goal, ultimately our country will reiiect this attitude. If these convictions are deeply rooted in individuals, the country as a whole will feel a responsibility for the welfare of other civilized countries, our neighbors, if you willg and peaceful international relationships will be the natural result. PATTY PATTERSON, A12 Before the Shrine Peace, When first I beheld your celestial form, Hewn from the rock of Faith, And standing immobile In serene and marble splendor Against the thundering clouds of war, I marveledg For you emerged, Unchanged and tranquil, Firmly upon your pedestal of Wisdom, Undismayed by the clouds of rancor That fell back into nothingness: And I was comforted to see That you gathered strength From the turbulence of time.

These two influences are merely ideas, intangible and abstract creations of the mind, but the former, like a golden thread of wisdom, is a product of intelligence, and the latter is sprung from the turbulent clouds of ignorance. The intolerant mind bows before the pagan god of Force, the tolerant one raises a temple to Peace. The tolerant voice justly speaks in the words of Voltaire exclaiming, I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it. The intolerant voice, on the other hand, is heard echoing ominously from the black days of the Inquisition, for then, as Muzzey says, Honest doubt was dealt with as impious rebellion, speculative restlessness, as satanic suggestion. Intolerance is a dictatorship. It would impose its unjust will and narrow opinions on all mankind. It would enslave the bodies and minds of men with chains of force. It would condemn Democracy to death, for Democracy, as H. M. Robinson says, is the principle of tolerance extended into the sphere of politics. Democracy and the ideals of peace and justice it personilies would be crushed by intolerance. To preserve Democracy and to preserve peace, we must preserve tolerance. This fact is evident, without tolerance, the others cannot exist. Tolerance does not demand that we accept or agree with another's beliefs, practices or habits. It merely proposes that we make a sincere and earnest endeavor to appreciate and understand them. There are many ways of living and many forms of interpreting life. The very fact that they do not all coincide with our own helps to add interest and intriguing complexity to the tapestry of life. They Weave into it the beautiful and many colored threads of thought. We in America need not seek a unanimity in views and actions because this very variety of outlooks, due to a variety of races and cultures, has made us great-has made us what we are today. And yet here in America, the land founded by people seeking haven from intolerance, the land founded by many races, we find that the insidious Weed of intolerance has taken root, and that it is now threatening the very structure of our existence. Our democratic rights of free speech, free press, and free assembly, our aims to advance culturally, and our bulwarks of liberty, personal and social, are founded upon this ideal. This foundation, built and held by personal effort, is now being threatened. Yes, intolerance has taken root in America. We have racial intoleranceg we have the intolerance of capital vs. labor, and We have an intolerance towards ideas that do not coincide with our own. The rights of minorities must be recognized, for the will of the minority, acting as a check on the majority in power, is essential to the preservation of democracy. If we permit the rights of others to be infringed upon, and lethargically feign ignorance of the fact that they are being infringed upon, we shall some day be rudely awakened to the realization that our own rights are being endangered. We shall become aware that our own personal rights and privileges are threatened by that monster which we by our passivity have helped to create. We shall see the foundations of Democracy crumbling because of our own negligence. We shall see war efface the serene image of Peace from our land. We shall see that tolerance in the abstract, theoretical tolerance towards another nation in world affairs, is not enough. Our tolerance must be more deeply rooted. It must be towards our fellow Americans, towards our associates in business, and towards one another in our homes. It is the lack of these that jeopardizes our Democracy from within. Our Democracy and our peace must be preserved for future civilization if there is to be a civilization of the future. We who have faith in the future, we who can visualize the future peace through the clouds of war that now hover over and blot the earth, see that the only hope for a better future lies in tolerance. We see tolerance as the golden thread to peace and happiness, and we see that it rests upon the individual to guard, determinedly and jealously, the life of this ideal. It is the hope of spiritual gain, not material gain, that raises mankind from the primeval shadows towards the light of immortality. Tolerance is an ascending step. Let men contest their beliefs and find truth by the clash of mind upon mind, not by the clash of armed forces. They sow in their wake nothing 'but discontentment, suffering ,and futility. We must see the superiority of tolerance to intolerance as a method to world peace, for tolerance, being synonymous with intelli- gence and Democracy, is opposed to intolerance with its companions Dictatorship, War and Ignorance. We ask that peace be preserved, and for this, we voice our plea for tolerance. GRACE BLUE, A12 ur one hundred sixty-wine JY 9' lv?

BETTE JANE GERSON, B12 Three Strikes, You're Out First place-lower division short story While walking by the vacant lot at the corner of our street, I stopped to Watch a group of young boys playing baseball. I glanced at the scoreboard and read, catcher, Pat O'Day, pitcher, Abraham Simone 3 first base, Fritz Schmidtg second base, Tom Jonesg third base, Chris Hanseng and so on. It occurred to me that each of these boys repre- sented a different country and some a different faith, yet they happily played together 1n good clean sport. As the game progressed, I realized that one could see a group such as this only in America. Soon, I found I was not the only spectator, for standing beside me Was a bc'y twelve or thirteen years old who was also watching with great interest. The ballplayers noticed the newcomer, and one of them started toward him. At the same time, the stranger reeled around and ran with all his might in the opposite direction. The boys took up the chase: and soon, one of the taller ones caught up with him. The boy shook with fright and said with a heavy German accent, I can't speak English. After the boys finally convinced the stranger that they had no intentions of beating him, they learned that he was a Jewish refugee from Germany and had been so used to being chased and bullied by the German boys that, when he saw them coming toward him, he instinctively turned and fled. After he had calmed down, one of the boys asked, What's your name? He replied in what little English he knew, My name is Joseph. Then by means of sign language and sounds, they asked him if he would like to play. He was so thrilled that he forgot himself and rattled off his thanks and gratitude in Ger- man. Of this, the American boys understood nothing. Since he did not know how to play, they assigned him to the duty of chasing the ball when it went over the fence. It was almost time for dinner nowg so I started for home with a happy feeling in my heart that I can not quite explain. A few weeks later, I passed by the lot once again and saw the same group of boys playing, but this time, Joe, as he was called now, was no longer chasing balls. I-Ie was right in the game playing second base, and as I passed, I heard the voice of a boy with a German accent yelling Three strikesg yo'u're out. HARRIET GREENBURG, B10 .HEL .uv ,- Youth: Champion of a Free Humanity Fourth place-senior A essay Today, we are approaching a crisis in the history of humanity. We are standing on the threshold of a new era. We are traveling a path which leads through a wilder- ness of desolation and destruction. It is the path, the way of human weakness, and it has been traveled since man first slew his brother, since Cain slew Abel and the wrath of God was upon the earth. Verily, the stones with which it is paved represent the vanity, the greed, the hate, the fear, the jealousy, all the frailties that attend man. And we are traveling that path, and those stones are the stones we tread upon, and those frailties are our frailties. But, in truth, we are approaching a crisis 3 we are standing on the threshold, It will not be long before the dismal present is resolved into a promising, peaceful future. It will not be longg but until that time, we must determine to carry out with fullest possible urgency our present program of providing the Weapons by which the enemies of our democratic, our Christian way of living may be destroyed. A government which destroys life and liberty and ends the individual's pursuit of happiness by making of him an insignificant part of a gigantic war machine is an inhumane government. A government which maliciously denies the political, spiritual, and economic rights of certain races is a wicked government. A government which feeds upon vanity and greed and hate and fear and jealousy for its existence is a decadent government. A govern- ment which embodies any principles opposed to a free society, which limits the enter- prise of any individual, regardless of race, which fosters discontent and war, is an immoral government. Under such a government, a man's soul is caged. And in order that man can live and enjoy liberty and pursue happinessy such a government must be destroyed. We in America, who have chosen to arm the enemies of our enemies, have deter- mined to carry out our part with courage and resolution. Nor can we afford to do other- wise, for this is a struggle not between men and nations but between two completely opposed philosophies of government. It is our obligation to uphold vigorously that philosophy which provides for the freedom of the individual. It is our obligation to follow a course of action which perpetuates that principle. Where there is a conflict of such fundamental rights, war is the inevitable result. A great man once said, We cannot exist half slave and half free. And he was absolutely right. The world must be either all free or all slave, and we have chosen to be free. We firmly believe that a, free humanity is a contented and peace-loving human- ityg and if we are to progress and attain a higher plane of civilization, a higher standard of living, man must be free and contented and peace-loving. For these reasons, we are sure that our cause is right. Without it, progress is paralyzed and permanent peace is an impossibility. So, with undaunted courage and determination, we must pursue this struggle to its end, and we will never yield until our cause is victorious. When that day of triumph dawns, the crisis will have passed, and the new era will have its beginning. The path which leads through a wilderness of desolation and destruction will become an avenue traveled by free men, contented and peace-loving, and the wilderness will dissolve into the clear and cloudless skiesg and the path will lead to Progress. The day will dawn when these things shall come to pass. And let us hope that that day is not far distant. When it comes, we shall conclude a Peace, which shall be made permanent because it has been founded upon the principle that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Our program has been established 3 and we, who are the youth of America, must carry it to fulfilment, for in youth are strength and vitality and courage. And youth has not lost sight of its ideals, nor is it cynical nor despairing nor disillusioned as those are whom age has burdened. But youth, of late, has been dormant. Youth's voice has not been heard above the storm. Nevertheless, it shall be heard, it must be heard for youth is the champion of our cause! Listen, Youth! Hear my voice, for though it be small and insignificant, it represents a mighty voice, a voice which is yours and ours, Youth! You who are hiding from the wilderness of desolation and destruction, have courage! Arise, Youth, and make your voice heard above the ravaging tempest. Let it proclaim to a cynical world that you believe in the freedom of man, now and forever. Let your voice spread beyond our boundaries, through the continents, to all nations until your chant is heard in a thousand tongues. May the earth shake with the reverberations of your voice, O Youth! And the world, rising from the blackness of night to greet the radiant dawn of Peace through Brotherhood of a Free Humanity, will echo Amen. DAVID G.

We are the future leaders of this universe in all fields, we are the politicians, busi- nessmen, clergymen, religious leaders, scientists, and laymen of 1970. This, we realize, and consequently accept to be an undeniable fact. VVe must assume the role of world peace-makers, of promoters of mutual friendship and understanding between all nations, and of crusaders against the theory that might makes right. Especially, in America, should this be the case. Here, as in no other part of the world, we have the necessary facilities and complete freedom so essential to under- take successfully such an important role. If peace is to prevail in the future, there must be mutual understanding between the peoples of the world on the ideals of free speech, freedom of the press, the right to vote in accordance with one's Wishes, freedom of religion, the right to petition, and other liberties long accorded by our great democracy. Who then are more qualified to spread this anti-hate doctrine than we, the youths of this nation, we who have been trained all our lives in those ideals? What are we to do toward the improvement of international relations? If we accept our responsibility, we certainly cannot simply sit back and allow the present state of world chaos and enmity to exist. We must educate ourselves in order to understand better our neighbors' viewpoint, for are not now all nations on this so small part of the universe called Earth, merely neighbors, continually quarreling, occasionally agreeing, then resuming disputes, yet all the time realizing that they should be living in perfect harmony with those who live so close to them. Education is needed to enable us better to instruct our fellow inhabitants of this earth in the great ideals of peace and human relationships, An educated and en- lightened people are the worst foes of greedy dictatorships and tyrannies. They are the last to succumb to propaganda, the slowest to be incited by fiery speeches, and the first to demand their rights as free people. Then, after the present conflict has ended and the forces of democracy and right- eousness have triumphed, as they shall in the end, we must form new bonds between the nations of the world. The Olympic Games and the League of Nations are two ex- amples that have been tried in the past. The sports festival has proved the more suc- cessful of the two and done much to promote friendliness between nations, through rivalry in athletic competition. The League of Nations undoubtedly has not fared quite so well although it could hardly be dubbed a complete failure. Before its efficiency was abruptly halted by the Japanese invasion of Manchuria, it had promoted numerous pacts and treaties which did much to withhold the outbreak of the present world conflicts until the middle 1930's. When the youths of today form their international organizations, there must be no allowances made for a certain percentage of failures. There must be no failuresg they must all work! Science is another great avenue through which the faulty relationships between nations may be bettered. Scientists are even more widespread throughout the world than athletesg and they are, if true scientists, fighting war with every weapon at their disposal. War tears down everything that they have ever worked for, destroys utterly the very objects for which they have labored. In the last live years, the greatest scientists, the Winners of the ,Alfred B. Nobel physics, chemistry, medicine, and physiology prizes, have included five Americans, four Germans, three Englishmen, two Austrians, two Ital- ians, two Frenchmen, and one Swiss, Hungarian, and Belgian. Certainly there must be some way to bring these great men togther in the interests of peace and good-will. It is the duty of youth to find a method that will bring about such a state of harmony and accord between nations. There is no time for delay. Procrastination has blocked the best of plans throughout the ages. If peaceful international relations are to be restored to the world, work must be started towards that goal now. Youth must act, and act now! WILFRED PEAK, A12 Son net Youth peered into the misty ceaseless past At mighty nations torn apart by wars, Each one had crumbled, broken like the last, Wiped out by hate and greed and battle scars. He wondered at the way men would destroy The lands and homes of others with a curseg What stream of action could a youth employ To strike this stigma from the universe? Then from the past itself came the reply Ignored by nations, causing them to fallg If you want peace-and strife you would defy, Then study people, learn to love them all. Through just consideration, wars will cease. Through understanding knowledge, will come peace. BENZELL GRAHAM, A12 America, inspiration for a Democratic World Honorable mention-senior A essay The youths of America are faced with a great task, the task of educating themselves so that when their generation takes the reins of government they will be prepared to lead a civilization with the principles of Democracy and Christianity as its goals. It has always been difficult for youth to find its place in life. It is said there are no barriers to conquer, no wildernesses to explore today, but the opportunities of youth today are unlimited. The horizons of science are forever broadening and expand- ingg many new industries such as airplanes, radio, and television are searching eagerly for farsighted young men with ambition and knowledge. The government of our country also needs intelligent and broad-visioned men who will carry on the work of past genera- tions in leading their countrymen and setting an example of a free people at work. Our country has many of the essentials of a prosperous nation, a fertile soil, invest- ed wealth, the space in which to live and rnost important of all, the use of freedom. With these at hand, all that is needed to produce a civilization unsurpassed in the his- tory of the world is an intelligent people, capable of producing great leaders. The numerous countries engaged in wars today will need our aid in the near future to reconstruct and to restore an orderly life out of the chaos and ruin that remain. With these countries, we have great prestige and influence. We must keep their faith in our intelligence, in our strength, in our good intentions, in our Democratic way of life, and in our belief in the ultimate brotherhood of man. If we refuse to assist these countries in their hour of need, if we fail to realize our responsibilities and obligations as a world leader, if we lose faith in the great ideals of Democracy and Christianity with which our forefathers have blessed us, the world will be faced with a bitter futureg and despair will replace the hope which we have inspired. Previous generations have attempted to place America in the position of leading the world towards the ideals of our Constitution and the Bill of Rights, which include the right to free worship, the right to hold property, the right to give consent to their form of government, and the right to individualism. One of the most understanding of these attempts was the establishment of the League of Nations, a basically American plan for world peace. Failure in this and in other attempts was due only to lack of experience and training. Youth must succeed where others have failed, The country has now gained much of the necessary experienceg youth must receive the training for world leadership, training in the geography and history of the United States and of the rest of the world, train- ing in the problems of government and international relations, training in psychology, in understanding and overcoming the mass impulse to be ruled by a dictator, training in the technical arts to improve the living condition of the world, training in the prob- lems of all foreign countries, in order to have a better understanding of their present day position in the world. With this training the youth of today will produce the greatest leaders in the history of the United States. Our country has set a splendid example of how Democracy can Work. Never before has one country lived with such security and freedom and with such a large population on so vast a territory. Nevertheless some of our most perplexing problems remain un- solved: the violence of booms and strikes must be controlled through better organization 5 our agriculture and natural resources must be preserved, and our soil restoredg all men must be guaranteed an opportunity to workg security must be provided for the young and the old, the sick, and the handicapped. Perhaps, the greatest problem youth faces in this century is that of civilization's greatest setback, War. It has always been the goal of the Democracies to put an end to all war. And although today this prospect seems far from realization, youth will be striv- ing to reach this ideal. Youth, more than any other age, does not believe in the existence of the word impossibleg to us, the impossibilities of today are the possibilities of tomor- row. When these problems have been solved, America will become a powerhouse for Democracyg she will be able to share her dynamic, vigorous, enthusiastic, and healthful life with all the world. She will be able to share her liberty, her equality, her abun- dant life, her happiness, her justice, and her Christian ideals. With these aims in view, we may well be proud and happy to be the youth of Amer- ica Where our responsibilities are exceeded only by our opportunities. FRED SPINDLER, A12 one hundred seventy-six i -l-5 -H12 AHSWCI' The n1en of Earth were in a war, Destruction from their hands reached far, Each nation fought with all the rest, And so I left the crowd, depressed. I went upon a mountain top With hope of finding how to stop The brutal slaughter of mankind, And weighed the matter in my mind. I started North and pondered long Upon this ancient, modern wrongg A voice then called and said for me To face the East and tell my plea. Then turning East, I asked for aid To help me in the plans I'd made: Before the words had left my mouth, A voice had told me of the South. I faced the South imploringly To listen for the new decree, A voice then said that it was best For me to go and ask the West. Then to the West I cried aloud, My hope was gone, my head was bowedg t'To learn of what you ask, go forth And ask my brother of the North. I've been to all the rest, I said, And each one sent me on instead. Then, came the answer, what to do Depends on Youth-it's left to you. BENZELL GRAHAM, A12 We Who Face the Dawn Together did they dream of being free To cherish life, and make the days secure For all men. They who dreamt of liberty Were not afraid to fight, that might endure The ways of peace. Now, we who face the dawn, Who stand courageous in the winds of youth, Must rise against the storm and carry on The fearless battle for the life of truth. No silver-sabereu bayonet will bring A lasting victory to Democracyg Only the warrior, Thought, can let men sing The stirring song of peace eternally. Let Knowledge be the leader, we the men Who meet the foe, make nations one again. BETTE JANE GERSON, B12 Youtlfs Prayer O give us vision, Lord, that we may see Beyond the clouds of war, into thelight Of knowledge. Give us strength, who would make free All broken, bondaged peoples. Let not fright Find any doorway to our souls, nor hate Discover entrance to our open minds. We shall not weaken though a twist of Fate Has let the evil threaten. Morning linds That as the sunlight rises in the sky, Q So will the Youth cast rays of faith and hope To hemispheres still dark. And let us try To conquer all the problems in our scope.

Youth Can Bring Peace First place-organization essay-Philomathian Social revolution and wide-spread chaos in the European and Eastern countries seem to be enveloping our countryg dangers threaten us also from within. This state of con- fusion brings to mind the part the United States of America has played in the past, first as our steadily growing colonies urged forward by an inspired liberty-loving people 5 later, these colonies became an important factor-in the business and cultural life of the world. Now, we are the foremost neutral democracy. Due to the fact that the United States out- numbers all other nations in population with one exception and that we are unrivaled in technological skill, raw material, labor supply, and that, owing to mass production, our pro- ducts are sold in every corner of the world, we, the youths of this nation, can be but deeply moved and thankful for our heritage. No one can foretell the future, but it will depend upon the nature of the responsibilities which the youth of the present generation will accept, whether or not we shall hold our position steadfastly. The basis of all the history we have learned in our course of education through school is patriotism, but this patriotism must be founded upon the knowledge of the good our country has done for other countries. Patriotism must be used for giving, not gain- ingg and we shall receive our just reward in return. Beethoven and Shakespeare are examples of patriots who gave their efforts for the world to enjoy. With a true under- standing of this conception of patriotism, we can enter the world society with a certain responsibility to discharge. In order to keep the world in peace, a possible substitute for war must be found. In almost every case, the chief obstacle to peace is hostility among races and peoples of the world. If this is true, we should assume the responsibility of ascertaining a remedy for this flaw in humanity. In the past, nearly every exploit by Americans in Mexico, Cen- tral, and South America has brought about many disturbing conditions. Often our country has overridden the privilege of the friendship with these countries, not trying to help them but to benefit ourselves. Also, we have been a little too presumptuous concerning their political campaigns, as was the case when we sent our marines to Nicaragua to see that their presidential election met with our approval. Obviously, if this sort of action is not thwarted, animosity will be aroused, which may not only lead these countries to cease some of their trade relations, but may influence then: to permit enemies of our democracy to establish themselves uncomfortably near our borders. A domineering atti- tude does not make one country respect another. Norman Angell wrote in Peace and the Plain Man, For it is not the acts which govern conduct but men's opinion about them which is often entirely wrong. For this reason alone, we must strive to be more friendly and helpful. In addition to a friendly attitude, we must develop a tolerance and understanding. Every form of government, as every man, has its admirable qualities and faults. Propa- ganda has influenced many Americans to believe that the majority of citizens of Euro- pean countries is oppressed and forced to accept the statutes of these governmentsg-but the average German, Italian and Englishman alike ardently uphold his political systems. If more study were given to the different forms of governments and less propaganda was substituted for the truth, we could more ably understand the cause of conditions and their corrections. By showing other nations that we recognize their fine principles and sympathize with their cause, they shall be more apt to take helpful suggestions and in return help us. Viscount Bryce in his Modern Democracies states, The thing now most needed by the people and its representatives is more knowledge of the facts of the outside world with a more sympathetic comprehension of the minds of other peoples. These words are particularly applicable to the United States, for we are not so internationally minded as we should be. The fact that most of the European countries are so much smaller in comparsion to the expanse of our nation makes relatively the same difference in political, economic, and social conditions. We are not wholly ignorant of their conditions, but we are often unsympathetic and intolerant of the differences we find there. For ages, disputes have resulted from prejudice. If we can train ourselves to recog- nize prejudice, we can study and try new methods to cope with this problem. Immed- iately, at the mere mention of words or slogans, especially those connected with race, religion, or patriotism, when a disagreeable emotional response is given, we find evidence of prejudice. Often a person does not recognize this trait unless he can detect it in him- self. The only plausible way to put an end to all traces of prejudice is to contemplate and analyze clearly the facts. Finally, we have our responsibilities before us, and we must use every ounce of our precious wisdom to discharge them to their fullest extent. This is a process of culti- vating the better side of human nature to bring to the world an old Ideal, that of sub- stituting peaceful international relations for war. This is a means of putting friendship, tolerance, kindness, and understanding to work for the betterment of the world. Here and now, we, the youth of the United States of America, realize our purpose on this land, to establish peace on earth, good will toward men of every creed, race and color. DOROTHY BLAKE, B12 asf, 7- --Y - -7 Youth and Future Peace Second place-organization essay--Philomath ian The present chaotic world offers youth a colossal opportunity never before given to any generation. Perhaps, our generation is given more than mere opportunityg this appears to be a responsibility which is to bring peaceful relations among all countries in order that civilization, and that for which it stands, may be kept alive. The ideals and principles of democracy are facing an unprecedented test. Can these great beacons of light shine brightly and strong enough to overcome the hate, the greed, and the revenge of the belligerent nations? More than ever before in history, there is real fear today, fear of the destruction of mankind, fear of shattering all the brightness of hope, of faith, and all the higher ideals built up and maintained by the American people. W. A. White states, Bewildering is the sequence of events today. Whoever chal- lenges man's liberty, wherever he is, is our enemy. Truth is throttled in the land that challenges us. The youth of America is confused. We, who are young, are gloomy and unhappy over the prospects of the future. We must begin to consider just what is our individual responsibility. To us, the youths of today, will come the great task of attempting to promote peaceful international relations. It is our responsibility to know where the United States stands and for what it stands. We must work in unity, which is the core of national strength and the essence of the democratic ideal. lt is our duty to rever- ence the symbol of the nation by personal devotion, and to know our great songs, speeches, and poetry. The youth of today should discuss the Iine values, of the demo- cratic principles as compared with totalitarian principles, and should develop physical energy and health for freedom of action and strength of character. We must know, maintain, and further the high ideals of our American ancestors. We must learn to plan for peace intelligently. We must visualize a future of peace. But, only by our steadfast will and purpose, self control, and tolerance shall we accomplish this end. Youth must have the foresight to plan for peace when this death and destruction is over. We must develop our human qualities of uprightness, of physical, mental, and spiritual good. Liberty and freedom enable us to do this, liberty and freedom to think as we please, to be personally righteous, and to have respect for others. America is called the melting pot of the world because peoples of all nationalities live here. To learn to know people, to respect them, to admire and intermingle socially with them, is youth's individual responsibility, the nation's responsibility. Youth must show these alien friends, who are living Within the boundaries of our shores, that America and American manners are superior, thereby setting good examples for them to follow. We need to strip off the veil of custom and habit with which men deceive themselves and to learn to love thy neighbor as thyself. Today, America is a nation of prestige. In fact, other countries look to us as a leader from oppression and as a protection against the bondage of rule and custom. America is the arsenal of democracy. It is the power house of the world, working for the principles and the ideals of all democracies-essentially, loyalty, faith, coopera- tion, unity, love, peace, justice, and equality. It is the personal responsibility of youth to develop the principles of our nation, and to cherish a passionate devotion for these ideals, so that we may become intelligent, loyal, and faithful American citizens. The United States oders the promise of human happiness, opportunity for development, and progress. And yet, never before have there been so much suffering and pain in a nation, or in a world. This is truly paradoxical. Our national problems are enormous today, for in the midst of plenty there is poverty and starvation. Yet, faith in demo- cracy must be maintained, The modern man hates war, for he fears it will destroy the progress made by mankind. Peace and justice must prevail in all nationsg and we, the youths of today and citizens of tomorrow, face the great responsibility of making this come true. You ask, how can we do that? We must share with all peoples. We must feed the hungry, no matter where they are. We must be good Samaritans. We can promote friendly international relations only by the cooperation and with the help of the other nations. We must show them and prove to them our desire for peace, for America thrills with light and hope. By international peace only, can we make the society of men safe for freedom and growth, to the increasing satisfaction of all men. Herbert Hoover declares, America is fast becoming the sanctuary of the ideals of civilization. We must spread these ideals of freedom and liberty to all nations so that they may know how wonderful and glorious it is to live in a country where the general welfare is more important than the destruction of men. By putting our prin- ciples and ideals to work, a definite beginning could be made towards promoting peace- ful international relationships. The youth of today can, by working collectively, be a great power. A heavy responsibility rests on our shoulders. We want economic and social security. We want international peaceg and we need, and should have, all possible training to aid us in the great and important tasks which we shall have to face in the very near future. JUNE RAE Cl-lRISTENSON,A11 Democracy's Challenge to the American Youth Third place-organization--Philomathian The key to international peace is understanding and adjustment among the various nationalities. The American youth is best adapted to this intelligent understanding be- cause modern education is based on Democratic principles and so, aims at such a goal. It is the responsibility of each young person to know the principles and ideals of his government and to understand them. If American youth is to prove to the World that Democracy does work and would promote peace, he must know the difference between the principles of our Democratic government, a government of the people, by the people and for the people, and those of the totalitarian nations, ruled entirely by one man. The dictators laugh at Democracy. They say it cannot work. that it is foolish to let the ignorant and uneducated masses of people decide important questions. But we know that it does work and that the masses of the people are not ignorant and do not have to be uneducated. Democracy stands for liberty under law, freedom of expression, loyalty, equal oppor- tunity for development, and toleration. Today, youth is freeing itself of the old time racial and religious prejudices, Youth is learning to live with many different types of people, to live peaceably with them and to understand them. This ideal can be accom- plished by appreciating their cultures and directing less criticism toward their short- commgs. The youth in America, today especially, comes in contact with countless types of refugees. These people from all over the world, driven from their own countries, seek refuge with us. Norwegians, Belgians, Dutch, French, Germans, Jews are all pouring into our country and seeking aid from us. Contacting them, especially in our schools, enables the American youth to get first hand knowledge of many nationalities, to understand and adjust himself to them. The damaging and careless habit of excluding people racially and religiously, without taking the trouble to know them personally, should be entirely obliterated. Instead, people should be accepted on their personality and accomplishments. If our Democracy is to continue and to bring peace to the World, it is the youth especially who must have a true conception of Democracy, its moral basis and the re- sults that will come with its successful operation. Any effort to preserve Democracy Without this understanding in youth will fail. The American youth sees the futility of war from such a recent example as World War 1. Youth knows that the world could live in peace and happiness. As America is the true example of Democracy, youth must take on his responsibility for safeguarding it by studying his government, understanding. and appreciating it. He must practice the Democratic principle of toleration by living in harmony with every race. No prejudice must be in the heart of the American youth against any nation. The American youth hates war, with all its cruelty and suffering. He wishes to do all he can to stop war. But he must begin that struggle to prevent strife right here at home, here in America. Former President Herbert Hoover has said, America is fast becoming the sanc- tuary of the ideals of civilization. When an American boy or girl hears this, it brings a thrill of pride to his heart, pride in his heritage of liberty, equality, love and loyalty. But to carry on these ideals, he must prove that his form of government is the best by displaying his personal ideals to the world. The original immigrants from England, Germany, France, Scotland, Sweden, Italy- countless nationalities are now all Americans, all living and working together in har- mony. They have developed a variety of types of American characteristics, the New England conservatism, the eastern progressiveness, the southern chivalry and courtesy and the western pioneering spirit. These have come into being by accepting from the immigrant all of value that he brings with him and by discarding his old world preju- dices. Youth, begin at home with your family and in school with your teachers and class- mates. If you, right here in America, learn to live in harmony with other races, to throw aside prejudice, race hatred, and class distinction, Democracy will carry ong it will be- come stronger and more perfect and soon will bring true and lasting peace throughout the entire world.

The song meant nothing to him. He was a German by birth and a Nazi by way of the teachings received from a year in a German training camp. It was only because his American-born mother had wished to come back to' her native land when his father died that he was here now in an American school instead of being at home serving the Fatherland. But even the love of his mother that had brought him to this country could not turn him from the belief in Nazism in which he had been reared. And yet it was not only the song that made him wish he had not come, for at the end of this particular assembly the names of the students who were to be the new members on the staff of the school paper would be announced. He knew that, of course, he did not have a chance. Yet,-once the editors had accepted his account of a rally. That had made him so hopeful that he turned in his application for a place on the staff. Writing was the only subject in this land that interested him. And he was good at it too. Even the teachers in the Fatherland had smiled beneficently and said, Maybe some day you will be given a position on some German propaganda organ. Yet, where he wrote did not matter so much. If only he could have received just a little job on the school paper! But the last remnant of even that hope had vanished, for Heinrich discovered that the editor of the paper, Morris Sherman, was a Jew. Heinrich had never kept his belief in Nazism a secret: so now Morris must neces- sarily hate him as he himself had been taught to despise all Jews. Morris would have the hnal vote in the choice of his staff, and he would surely veto a Nazi sympathizer. Heinrich glanced at Morris Sherman sitting on the platform, awaiting his part in the program. Why he almost looked as if he were smiling at the German boy. But, of course notg that couldn't be! Naturally, it must be more a sneer of triumph. The oilicers at the training camp in the Fatherland had been right as always when they proclaimed that Germany and her people were surrounded by enemies and must there- fore be hostile too, must hate as they were being hated. This tolerance that these Americans spoke of so much was nonsense. All peoples hated each other, and nothing could be done about it. Had not the officials in Germany said so? Yes, it was true. It wasn't only the Jewish boy who hated him. The other fellows shunned him too. He had heard them talking about him, saying, He's been in this coruntry long enough to lose his accent, but stay away from him. He'll start feeding you this Fatherland stuff. And he hates practically everyone. Well, Heinrich defended himself silently now, everyone -hates me. He noticed then that Morris was walking toward the front of the platform, standing before the microphone, and starting to announce the new members of his stai. For exchange editor, Bruce Johnson. As the new humor edito'r, Dick Reynolds. These were both more lowly and less sought after positions. Heinrich listening attentively, hoped against the bitter lack of hope in his heart. There were still other posts to be awarded. Straining to hear every word, Heinrich listened tensely, but only the names of American boys were read. Of course. He couldn't have expected anything. If he had been doing the choosing, would he have selected a Jew? Hie might have if the fellow had been really Well-fitted for the job. But, what was he thinking of? These were not the teachings of the Nazis, who said that one should favor those Who sympathized with one's own cause. Meanwhile, Morris Sherman was cc-'ming toward the end of his list. And now, I'd like you all to meet the fellow whom we've picked to be the new assistant editor. As you know, this is the highest post open to any but a Senior, and the student who gets it usually becomes editor-in-chief later. Well, we've really found the fellow for the job-Let me introduce him to you-Heinrich Gesslerf' With vigorous applause the audience urged a dazed Heinrich onward to the platform. He could not believe it! Surely, he couldn't think that these people hated him now. But in the Fatherland, they had said--Perhaps, they had been wrong. Perhaps, they did not understand. When Heinrich reached the platform, Morris shook his hand heartily, then he said in a voice audible only to the German boy, Do you mind if I call you Hank? It sounds more American. That's what we all are now, you know. Hank smiled appreciatively. HANNAH. ROSING, B12 Challenge to Youth The choiring chimes are sounding, for the hour Has come at last. From moments, we have shared Together in these halls, we take the power That we have gained from learning. Well have fared Those striving ones who never feared to work. In youth's brave heart, the song of knowledge singsg Yet we who leave, know not what shadows lurk Behind tomorrow's doors. Fear not! Faith clings To youth as shining, silver-mantled stars Cling to the skies. And when the dawn breaks through The darkness, laid so heavily by Mars, The heart of youth shall sing, for it beats true. The tides of life shall rise and shall retreatg There lies the sea of challenge we must meet.

Through the glorious deeds of your ancestors, such as at Valley Forge, at Gettysburg, and at the Argonne, through the hardships of the American pioneer and settler, and above all, through the honest hard work of its citizens, your America has risen to a, position of greatness envied the World over. The torch of your American liberty, equality, unity, and justice brightens, as never before, the hopes and dreams of hapless people throughout the world. Therefore, American youth, realizing these facts, it is your responsibility to see that America undertakes, at the right time, determined eiorts to establish international law and justice that will provide a lasting and just peace and a maximum of freedom and opportunity for all men everywhere. Our thrice elected President reiiected the general views of the nation when he placed humanity's aims as four freedoms: free- dom of speech and expression, freedom of every person to worship God in his own Way, freedom from want, and freedom from fear. To comprehend, to appreciate, and to carry out that weighty task, American youth, as individuals, must realize certain lesser but extremely important responsibilities. A youth, as the adult and citizen of tomorrow, has certain significant responsibilities to himself. First, he must learn and practice within himself, self-determination, self- restraint, and self-reliance. Second, he should study and take pride in the history, in the people, in the government of America, and in the ideals and principles for which American Democracy stands. Third, he should attempt to understand the history, the government, the characteristics, and the customs of the people of other nationsg for, if a just and permanent peace is ever to be forthcoming, all prejudices and antipathies, together with antiquated ideas and superstitious, must definitely be overcome. However, youth's most important individual responsibility, beyond a doubt, is to see that democracy is kept fervently alive in America. How is youth going to make American democracy function well? A youth must realize that for every privilege which he holds as an American citizen, he has an equivalent responsibility! Liberty must not be taken for granted. As Mr. Raymond Gram Swing stated, millions have fought and died for that freedom under which youth now lives, and unless youth cares for that liberty, it will be lost. Becoming of age, he should vote wisely without bias at each election. He should play a role in his government by contacting his city, state, and national representatives and informing them of his views upon immediate ques- tions of the day. But, as a youth, he should have faith in the American people and not be too anxious to criticize older and probably more experienced individuals. Moreover, if it is the overwhelming opinion of the American people that it is necessary for him and other youths to sacriice a short period of their lives in the best interests of national strength, it is his duty to accept cheerfully with pride, this responsibility. Furthermore, youth should advocate that the United States take an active role in international affairs! Support should be accorded to continuance and possible exten- sion of our Good Neighbor policy, through which North and South America have become united as never before dreamed feasible. The willing cooperation of Latin American officials in planning our new hemispheric strength may in part be laid to the fact that for several years the United States Military and Naval Academies have admitted a number of promising Latin Americans. Again, youth must demand that America play a definite diplomatic role, such as supporting and continuing our present definite stand against aggression, force, and tyranny. H. V. Kaltenborn, and other outstanding authorities on international affairs, have repeatedly expressed the opinion that had the totalitarian aggression of 1931 in Manchuria and 1935 in the Rhineland been met by a united stand of the democracies, this present state of chaos would not be upon us. Youth also must urge cooperation, not only in the forming, but in the operation of such future organizations as a League of Nations. He must realize that the world is many times smaller and far different from one hundred fifty years ago. Youth must demand that America never again shirk her responsibilities as she did during the post war period of world War I. Youth should also work toward international fellowships through the promotion of such organizations as the Boy and Girl Scouts, and through the encouragement of such activities as the Olympic Games, exchange student scholarships and student tours of other nations. American youth, your responsibility is clearly and vividly before you to encourage and see that America strives at every opportunity to attain, through exemplification, participation, and friendship, a peaceful world wherein, instead of force and hate, international law and justice together with man's freedom will be permanently assured. JOHN PAULES, All An American Youths Ideals Second place-upper division essay The American youth is like a spent swimmer in the sea of bewildering events and shattered ideals, fighting valiantly against the waves of despair, despondency and dicta- torshipg seeking to reach the shore of hope, faith and all the other true American ideals. The youth of today has a great individual responsibility, that of strengthening and of preserving our American ideals so that Americans may better understand and help our foreign neighbors. This cannot be accomplished by the youth alone, but it is our individual responsibility to pave the road for better understanding and friendlier relations with foreign nations. We have hope for developing these friendly relations, but do we have faith-faith that is needed to accomplish this task? Faith is the ideal that all industries and govern- ments must have, faith in their leaders and faith in themselves. The American youth has faith but not enough to break down the barrier between the American youth and the foreign youth. In times like the present, this barrier must be forgotteng and accompanying our great hope will be the American's great faith, one of the essential The youth of today is the natural choice building blocks of friendlier relations. Next to faith comes love for our fellowmen. This ideal and that of faith must be realized and practised at home before we go cannot be accomplished by amateurs trying enough faith and love for their fellowmen to abroad with them. A friendlier relation new theories, but by people Who have overcome all obstacles. for this mission. We have no animosity toward nationsg we have faith, and with these two ideals which are taught and practiced in schools, the youth can conquer this great task set before young people of today. The development of these principles lights the way to a clearer vision of the future. Without this vision and foresight, we shall fail in this great responsibility. The outlook may seem gloomy nowg the Vision clouded, but this does not hold back real Americans. The true incentive for accomplishing our tasks is instead made greater: and the thrill of accomplishment comes sooner. When the outlook seems blackest, the best is yet to come. Our happy vision must follow this black outlook of todayg and it will with our love and faith supporting it. Americans should have freedom from fear. We are not awakened in the night by the dreary wail of a shrill air-raid siren. Instead, we sleep peacefully until an alarm clock awakens us to our daily tasks. A ringing alarm clock is a far cry from an air-raid siren with its wakeful hours and possible destruction. Our clocks signify that we have a bright day ahead of us, devoid of any fears for our homes and families. Developing friendly relations with foreign nations may be the one means of installing alarm clocks instead of air-raid sirens in those fear-crazed countries. Banquo's prayer, Restrain in me those cursed thoughts would be very apropos today. Hate, revenge, greed, and jealousy can be interpreted as Banquo's cursed thoughts. These are not American ideals, and we must restrain ourselves to keep these thoughts out of our hearts and minds. The friendly relations that we are seeking cannot be accomplished if we think such cursed thoughts. We Americans must learn better to understand our foreign neighbors so that we can come to them as friends with our ideals, not as strangers. To be able to approach them truthfully, we must strip off the veil of habit and customs with which we have been deceiving ourselves. As pictured in the Minister's Black Veiln by Nathaniel Hawthorne, everyone is hiding behind a veil. When we come from behind our veil, we shall then be a race of people to be respected and admired. The greatest of all our needs is a faith in God, which the world is too apt to forget. How can a country and its inhabitants exist without God? The Ten Commandments should be the greatest part in a manls life. To some people, the Golden Rule, the Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes are just so many words printed in the Bible, the greatest of all books, which is often buried on a high and dusty shelf. Find your Bibles and consult the Ten Commandments, the Beatitudes, and the Golden Rule. If every boy and girl in the country would read and practise their philosophies, the world would not be in its present chaotic condition. We can not forget about God. While we live only a few short years, God lives forever. With all these tenets firmly fixed in our minds, we can now try with our better understanding and with our friendlier relations and our faith in God to seek Peace. If all these ideals are accomplished, the ideals of a free and peace-loving nation instilled in foreign countries, our world will be a better place in which to live. Youth's greatest responsibility, namely understanding and establishing friendly relations, can be accomplished if we hold fast to our ideals: Faith in men, Love, and Faith in God. DOROTHY SIVERLING, A11 Tolerance: Keynote to Universal Peace Third place-upper division essiay Blood, toil, tears, and sweat was the offering of the Prime Minister of England upon the acceptance of his position. His people did not ask for more, they realized it was a true and honest appraisal of their grave situation. The time may quickly arrive when this nation can be offered no more. But that time may be postponed by the co- operation and honest thinking of each individual throughout the United States. Only the level-headedness, the fair-mindedness, and the honesty on the part of every American citizen can bring us through this present world crisis. The objective of America today is 'tPeace on earth , but to promote Peace, the latter half of the quotation cannot be disregarded, namely Goodwill toward men . Peace has not the strength to keep herself alive without Goodwill's encouraging her and standing conspicuously near. Goodwill is a form of toleranceg this and understanding are even more essential between individuals than between nations if Peace and Goodwill are to exist because every individual has his part in the making of a great nation. As individuals, as youths of today, and as the leaders of tomorrow, we shall have to sustain the spirit of democracy. The time is swiftly approaching when our generation will be responsible for the government of the nation. Many youths today feel that they have to have only the best of positions upon graduating from college because they have received a diploma. We all have to begin at the bottom of the ladder of success and climb it steadily, until we reach the rung in the ladder which we desire to attain. A diploma, however, is not significant of tolerance and broad-mindedness, the two essential charac- teristics in the creating of a fine citizen. One of the most important ways to bring about this tolerant aspect, which is so essential to world peace, is that youth be provided with an opportunity to learn what goes on in others' lives, and to know the ambitions and thoughts that occupy the minds of those who follow vocations and courses different from his own. This training today is being offered to young men from the ages of eighteen to thirty-five who are called in the United States army draft. 'Men and women, boys and girls of all walks of life, should be brought together also. They should learn to live other than in a little world of their own, and this process of teaching understanding should be begun in youth. The truck driver's children and the banker's children should have a chance to feel a comradeship for one another. In this way, a broader relationship can be created among all the peoples of the world. Then it will be understood that regard for others is paramount to Peace on earth. We ask our government to use tolerance in its intercourse with other nations, just as each individual must accord tolerance and consideration to his fellow man in business and in social life. Ministers, doctors, teachers, public officials, and parents themselves preach constantly this teaching of God and the Bible. Tolerance organizations are formed to spread its development. But is tolerance accorded? No, it is not yet extensively prac- ticed! Are we, the United States of America, not an example to the rest of the world in the principles of democracy and liberality? What is tolerance if it is not forebearance and liberality? We, in this beloved land, are trying to hold the torch 'of freedom and liberty high, so that it may cast its rays over this entire world, this wilderness of hatred. envy, greed, bitterness, and strife. Yes, the United States is now under a banner to pro- mote and to protect democracyg and since at this time, we face such a serious crisis, intolerance is apt to prevail because of the many widespread differences in opinion. We must insure that we have continuing tolerance here before we try to give lessons in democracy to the rest of the world, says Broadus Michell of the Council Against ln- toleranceg it is one of the greatest enemies that our democratic government will ever have to face. The promotion of tolerance should be perpetuated in the school and in the home. Tolerance must be a deeply ingrained attitude, that is instilled in the individual while he is yet a child. How can all nations of the world be expected to be forebearing in judging the acts and the opinions of others if that forebearance does not prevail amongst the in- dividuals within a nation itself? To the United States can certainly be granted the title of the most tolerant nation in the world today, but there can always be room for more tolerance among any people. We, the United States of America, must be the pilot ship for the worldg we must lift the heavy end of the dominant forces of the world. Therefore, we must use indulgence and forebearance in judging the acts of other nations. Thus, through the continuance of a tolerant attitude, God grant that America shall always remain--America: The land of the free, and the home of the brave! CORRYNE M. CODON, All one hundred ninety-three HHS HGHIIISI IHE SKY The doors of our school swing open to disclose the Stars and Stripes proudly flying before the winds.

To accomplish this, youth must do more than just wave fiags and sing God Bless America. Youth must have faith and courage as democracy is based on faith and courage. Faith and courage are the essence of democratic ideals. In junior and senior high schools, we start developing faith and courage by the democratic form of government as setup by the student body and the faculty. Demo- cracy also takes form in the classroom, in the shops, and more particularly, on the athletic fields. Boys and girls learn what democratic living means through participat- ing in the various sports, they take as their guiding words, Play the Game, Fair Play, and May the Best Man Win! By applying these phrases to everyday life, youth is given a clearer insight of democracy and develops faith in, as well as understanding of, his fellowman. In the classroom, youth is taught the importance of unityg and it is his individual duty and obligation to see that these teachings are not forgotten or laid aside. If citizens lose sight of this very important factor, the nation's strength cannot grow because the core of our national strength is unity. To insure national unity, each youth must learn to think and to distinguish right from wrong. Youth must develop the ability to distinguish propaganda from truth! If there is a doubt in his mind as to whether or not a statement is true, he should never repeat it. Small rumors cause hysteria, and hysteria is one of the most powerful weapons of the dictators of other nations. Hysteria can be as harmful to industrial efficiency and public morale as a factory fire. Colonel William J. Donovan, better known as Wild Bill Donovan of the famous Fighting Sixty-ninth, after spending some time in Europe, recently said, If you tell a man often enough and skilfully enough that he is looking sick, the chances are that he will begin to feel sick. The power of suggestion affects nations, too, especially during a crisis when fear puts hair-trigger release on emotions. Young people must show the propagandist that they are tougher than critics think by not allowing themselves and the United States to become undermined by rumors. These questions, according to Colonel Donovan, are often asked about modern people: Has a high standard of living, democratically achieved, decreased their ability to take it ? Hasn't youth, and the nation as a whole, smothered its spirits in material comforts and lost sight of the nation's security, in the frantic search for its own well-being 7 . The answer is No! Youths who have volunteered for selective service and those called by draft in 1940 Were an average of two inches taller and fifteen pounds heavier than the soldiers of 1917. A year's service in the cause of democracy will do much to strengthen the youth of today, mentally, physically, and spiritually. Each youth, going into service during our Defense Program, must be ever mindful of the fact that giving a year to his country's service is not losing a yearg but he is gaining much for himself. In the service, youth is given every possible advantage, and often life is richer than would be the case in his every day mode of living. Again, I say that democracy has not made the youth of today softg on the contrary, it has given a material and a spiritual strength, which is vital to any nation. In build- ing for a strong defense, we must not overlook the important part that religion has played from the beginning of time, Our forefathers, the Pilgrims, came to America to attain freedom to develop righteous character, to be able to worship according to the dictates of their hearts. It is on these ideals that our democracy is based. As indivi- duals, each youth must maintain these ideals, to the best of his abilityg or democracy will fail. The younger generation must not lose sight of religious faith in effort to establish a nation such as we have the privilege to enjoy. America must have religious faith to have democracy. Einstein has said that if only two per cent of the people of our nation had enough religious faith, we would be strong enough to bring peaceful world relationships within a relatively short period of time. Another of youth's individual responsibilities is that of sharing. If we would only strive to keep in mind the advice a great man gave to his son, it would be of great value, God first, others second, and yourself last. I is the uppermost in the thoughts of too many people. It is always 'AI think, I know, I heard, I, I, I. If we should forget I once in a while, human relationships would be greatly improved. Before we can improve national and international relationships, we must improve individual human relationships. Youth, individually and collectively, must never become discouraged by hearing it said that the World is only fit for birds and beasts, not human beings, for, of course, this is false. Peaceful international relationship is not impossible! The world was at nce It can be again' therefore we must never cease striving to attain this peace o . , , end We must choose whether or not we are prepared to work for the betterment of t t l' mon the'world as a whole, as did our forefathers, or if we are to be conten 0 ive a g the ruins brought about by disintegration from within ourselves through lack of development of democratic thinking and living. ' The destiny of mankind is in the hands of the youth of America! ERMA JOHNSON, B11 one hunclred ninety-seven lm Youths Role in International Affairs Second place-lower division essay While peaceful international relationships seem but a mirage at present, youth can contribute to their improvement. The youth of today is the adult of tomorrow. As one of the millions of boys and girls in America, I cannot sit idly by, unconcerned with the acute condition of affairs, for my inactivity and indiderence might inflict irreparable harm to America as a faltering cog would injure a complex mechanism. It is my obligation to society to be an immediate participant in present day affairs. for I am destined to share my opinions and conclusions with fellow leaders in the future. Thus, it is the responsibility of young people today to inform themselves on problems because no matter in what walk of life they will be, their fellow citizens will expect them to contribute their suggestions for international equality and prosperity. Bear in mind that responsibility is ability to meet obligationg and it is youth's obligation to prepare itself to shoulder this responsibility for sane and just international relationships. Mr. E. Stanley Jones, the great missionary, said that five percent of Americans think, ten percent think they think, and eighty-five percent would rather die than think. Youth must take it upon itself to master the art of reasoning and good thinking. In order to be worthy of activity in present day affairs, boys and girls must avoid inertia, passiveness, laziness and apathy. No modern youth can carry this responsibility of promoting international relation- ships without Hrst fulfilling his responsibility to himself. Overcoming ignorance, learning the truth, and being able to separate the right from the wrong come from extensive reading. Before an individual can plunge into the entangling problems of life, he must develop a philosophy for life itself. When tragedy seems to throw the happiness of a boy or girl into the background, he or she should conquer the fear of future misery by having sincere faith in life and in a purpose for living. A young person should replace his fear with hope and courage. An individual will be more apt to succeed if he takes the responsibility of developing himself spiritually and intellec- tually when he is quite young. Since one has the freedom to develop by his own ini- tiative, he should mold his character into the habits of self discipline, responsibility, willingness, tolerance, and self-sacrifice. Carrying responsibility in home duties, class activity, and school activity will improve youth's competence. Above all, an individual has to maintain a high standard of strength and will power to combat procrastination and to possess complete confidence in himself to carry great responsibility. Youth's first individual responsibility to his nation is to know and to love the early background of American history. My trips east and two years in Washington, D. C., inspired in me a deeper reverence for the ideals and symbols of our forefathers' strug- gles. Visiting Williamsburg, once the seat of the government of Virginia, seeing Jamestown, where the first settlers came, and going to Mount Vernon, where our first president lived, gave me a clearer understanding of the sacrifices of our predecessors. Then, as an individual, I should become intelligent on current affairs of the nation, so as to be competent in contributing to mature discussions. I shall thus be creating a basis for sounder thinking in my adulthood. Young people can increase friendly relations within their nation by learning to understand the young people of other races and creeds, developing toleration for their religious and political ideals. Youth should be loyal to local, state, and national leadersg but he should always strive for the highest type of leadership. One of the most immediate responsibilities of youth to his nation is to build physical strength for the purpose of making him more capable of carrying responsibility. This strength should contribute to youth's faith in the democratic ideals of his government. When youth has assumed individual responsibility to himself and to his nation, the next step is his recognition of the part his nation must play in the family of nations. Girls and boys of America can make an effort to cultivate friendship with foreign students by membership in international friendship leagues. Through my membership in such an organization, I am learning to appreciate the culture of other countries. This includes, primarily, foreign literature, art, and music which have come down through the ages. Americans must develop an objective point of view and appreciate the needs of other countries. Above all, youth's most effective individual responsibility for peaceful international relationships is to achieve an attitude of tolerance. If the youth of all nations of the world today learned tolerance in early life, they would be increasingly liberal in their consideration of the opinions of other nations. By this understanding, a more firm and secure international relationship would be achieved. VIRGINIA OLSON, B11 The Allegiance to the Flag I pledge allegiance to the Hag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for Which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Wisdom is the Way Peace was not won because men willed it so, Nor liberty by purple dreams secured. As men sought peace then, men who seek still, know That freedom and her ways have not endured Through visions only. VVho would dream must iight, Not With the sword, but with an honest mind, Not with the word, but with an honest mindg That nations, hearts may ever be inclined Toward love of freedom. Yet, the battle won Is never ended. Youth must ever strive, Toward paths of peace, that nations may be one Forever, and Democracy alive. The Will to know shall free us from hate's tether, Inspire our minds, and bring men's hearts together. BETTE JANE GERSON, B12 one hundred ninety-nine IIIllIHIRY ii ,wflfk l Wgiww V ,,. 7. l. . 1 . BANNER OF DEMOCRACY A wind-whipped banner snaps against the sky In cool white Winds of truth and libertyg Oh, may this symbol never cease to fly Above the standard of Democracy. BETTE JANE GERSON, B12 two hundred three Sergeant James N. Lawson Lieutenant Robert M. McHargue MTS, Lena M, Morgan In all of the one hundred and fifty-seven years of our national life, never have We, the American people, been more interested in or more concerned with the military establishments of our country. And never has our traditional policy been subjected to such wide-spread and intense scrutiny. There are some who now condemn tradition of maintaining a very small peace time army, equipped with a minimum of ordnance and supplies. But the United States has always been essentially a pacific nation and has wisely recognized the fact that a large peace time standing army is a threat to international friendship. Today, with fearless progress, avoiding the lot of Weak or unprepared or small nations in Europe, the United States has declared an emergency to exist and is deter- mined not to be Weak nor unprepared. We have resorted to our traditional practice of calling citizen armies, and preparing them to defend our democratic way of life. Such large citizen armies, so much greater than our regular peace time forces, cannot be completely officered by regular army officers. That task naturally must fall upon the Reserve Officers' Corps, Whose personnel was trained in the schools of the nation. America's policy in the present crisis can be stated as: Defend American Democracy at All Costs, and Be So Strongly Prepared to Accomplish This Defense That the Enemies of Democracy Will Never Attack. In this policy of becoming fully prepared so that We may yet avoid War, the responsibility of the youths now enrolled in the Reserve Officers' Training Corps is clear. ROBERT M.

FF The battalion staff consists of six oilicers, whose responsibility it is to perform the executive duties of the battalion. Every member has a Written list of tasks for which he is strictly responsible throughout the semester. The chief duty of each staff officer is to inspect the battalion for theory knowledge and to see that the appearance of the men is satisfactory. If a cadet's appearance is below par or if he is lacking in theory knowledge, the officer has the power to assess deficiency points which then appear on the cadet's personal record, With the Honor School inspection this term, the staffs work has proved invaluable. The members of the staff are: Lieutenant Colonel Albert Weber, Major Robert Arthurs, Captain David Covell, First Lieutenants Donald Ladd, Terry Irvine, Grant Hoageg Staff Sergeants James Hrabetin, Richard Slyfield, Myles Garhan. This year, the battalion, the second largest in the city, has attained its maximum strength in personnel.

White: Since Coach White has been at Los Angeles High School, he has emphasized sportsmanship as the goal of competitive sports. His life exemplifies the highest standard of character, and stands as a symbol of achievement that we may do well to follow. By earning letters in baseball, track, football, and basketball while attending Indiana's Earlham College, he proved himself a leader on the athletic field. The principles of fair play and sportsmanship he learned then became the principles he has represented since he has coached here at Los Angeles High School. As head of the athletic department and coach of the varsity baseball squad, Mr. White has consistently produced Winning teams. His painstaking work with the boys and his sense of fairness have made him one of the most-respected members of the Faculty. Those who know him and have worked with him can aflirm that his friendly cooperation and helpful suggestions play an important part in developing our many fine athletes. We feel special pride in having Mr. White, who symbolizes the highest in leadership, sportsmanship, and character. Coach Herbert E. White The success of this year's track team is due largely to the effort and hard work of Coach H,omer L. Graves. A track star himself, Coach Graves has built a strong team this spring. He has been ably assisted by Mr. Carl Brown, who trains the shot putters, and also by Mr. Bert LaBrucherie, who develops the hu1'dlers. Mr. Philo Chambers not only conditions the distance men, but he is a prominent social studies teacher as well. Assisting Coach White in developing the horsehide brigade are Mr. Fausto Topete, of last year's team, who has charge of the B squad, and Mr. Curtis Fisher, who coaches the C nine. Rome's swim teams, who splash to triumph in Oliver Pool, are coached by Mr. Elmer Crumly. Water sports have become more and more popular at L. A. during the past few years. Mr. Howard P. Lea, when not teaching commercial classes, is developing Rome's tennis stars. Boys' vice-principal Ralph C. Noble finds time to sponsor the golf team. The Gym Club is trained by Coach Albert Happy Hemsath. Bresee, Brown, Chambers, Crumly, Graves, Hemsath, Lear, La,Brucherie.

Head Yell Leader Walker Kisselburgh Yell Leaders With larger crowds of loyal Romans Hocking to the west bleachers to cheer the fighting track and diamond men on to triumph, our yell leaders were confronted with a situation, rare for a spring term. Faced with the problem of stirring the spirit of every Roman bleacherite to spur on the hard- working athletes, head yell leader Walker Kisselburgh, aided and abetted by his two capable assistants, Vince Lombardi and Leland Potter, acquitted himself nobly. The traditional Ali bevo more than once quickened the pulse of the Student Body and gave the impetus whieh made two-base-hits into triples and runners-up track men into winners. The importance of spirited, well-directed yells has long been realized, but never was it more important than this term. Whether the boys on the field were ahead or behind, our yell leaders provided the spirit essential to victory. Lombardi, Kisselburgh, and Potter, lead Roman rooters in spirited, organized yells.

Gym Team The fighting spirit and good sportsmanship of the Los Angeles High School gym team, plus the leadership of Coach Hemsath, gave the Romans one of the finest seasons they have had in several years. The season opened with a victory over the Dorsey Dons, when captain Charles Schul- man, Ray Meanes, Sol Pearlman, and Mendel Cooper gave evidence that they would be the stars of the gym team. The Romans then traveled to Fairfax, where they were de- feated by a superior gym team. Still smarting from their loss at Fairfax, the Romans swamped Venice by taking every first place but one. University then bowed to our super- ior L.A. gym team. Next, the gym team faced the undefeated Yankees and were de- feated by a very powerful Hamilton squad. The outstanding gymnasts were: Joe Burns, ropesg Mendel Cooper, rings, free exer- cise, and parallelsg Hollingsworth, long horseg Dick Johnson, free exerciseg Ray Meanes, parallels, Sol Pearlman, side horseg Leland Potter, high barg Don Ross, tumbling and long horseg Charles Schulman, ropesg and Calvin Tsunawaki, tumbling. These boys are to be congratulated for providing L.A. High with an outstanding gym team.

Tennis Team Again this year, Rome's champion tennis team, undefeated for more than three con- secutive years, has remained unbeatable. Under the able leadership of Coach Howard P. Lea, Los Angeles High's tennis team has proved itself invincible. The most logical reason for this is the fact that the team is composed not of one or two experienced play- ers, but rather boasts of nearly fifteen members who are consistently challenging the rank or standing of their team-mates. At the writing of this article, the boys on the team were the following: Irving Chap- pel, Jack Ercanbrack, Marvin Feldstein, Forrest Gillespie, Bob Johnson, Sammy Match, Ted Norpoth, Arnold Parker, Budge Patty, Billy Roupen, and John Shea. Bob Knickrehm was the manager. The high points of the .season were the Dudley Cup and Ojai Tournaments, Which, after many a battle, were won by last year's 15-years-and-under champion Budge Patty. Irving Chappel and Sam Match also made fine records in the Dudley Cup Tournamentg Chappel reached the semi-finals. As is the custom, several practise matches preceded the League contests. In each of these, Rome emerged victorious. The pre-season schedule was as follows: Feb. 26, Inglewood High, March 11, Hoover High of Glendaleg March 27, U.S.C. Froshg March 29, Santa Barbara Highg and April 17, Montebello High School. During the regular sea- son, the following teams were played: April 3, Dorseyg April 19, Fairfaxg April 24, Ham- ilton: May 1, Venice, May 8, Unihi. With the VVestern League title already cinched, we entered the City Play-offs with good chances to emerge victorious for the third consecu- tive year. Left ta right: Engle, Simpson, Revay, Crane, Carter, Lawrence, Middleton Fahy Golf Team With four returning lettermen and a line selection of prospects, Los Angeles High School has a fighting chance to have a 1941 City Championship Golf Team for the fourth straight year, The team at present is composed of Paul Carter, Raymond Crane, Doug Fahy, Dick Lawrence, and Bill Middleton. In addition to the five regulars, the team is ably backed by Engle, Revay, Shahian, and Simpson. This year, there have been many more opportunities for other high schools to par- ticipate in golf play because of the increasing interest in high school golfers by various civic-minded individuals. The populace has begun to realize that great golfers are developed not from college students but from boys who begin their golfing days in high school or in the grade schools. The boys on this year's team have tried to maintain the fine record that Los An- geles High School has made in past seasons, they are to be congratulated. The success which has come with each succeeding team is due to the encouragement of Mr. Ralph C. Noble and the fine sportsmanship of the boys on the team. two hundred thirty-five Rear row left to rzght Perstein, Cottam, Hulbert, Lull, Lacy, Babson, Levine, Steinberg, Carter.

Varsity Swimming Los Angeles High's swimming team was composed mainly of new men this year, only six lettermen returned from last year's championship squad. These mermen placed fifth in the City Relays and went on to win many of their dual meets. Much experience was gained in the early meets, and the team distinguished itself by its fine sportsmanship. The 50 and 100 yard free-style events were taken care of by Lull and Scott. In the backstroke, Bob Maple, one of the best men on the team, worked hard to stay ahead of Crane, Roberts, and Babson. Bell, Hodgins, and Hulbert swam the gruelling 220, the longest race. The individual medley, always hard, was well handled by Harris and Sper. Carpenter and Neville swam breast-stroke. The four man relay team, composed of Hodgins, Maple, Scott, and Lull, always furnished a thrilling exhibition. The medley relay team, Carpenter, Maple, and Harris, showed true L. A. spirit by bettering its time in nearly every meet. Sper and Carter were the divers. Although there were no stars, the team became a hard-working competitive squad under Mr. C1'umly's able direction. Varsity swimmers splash in Oliver Pool. Rear row, left to right: Ridenour, Lyon, Benton, Crumly, Grijfin, Gaudino Temple Second row: Freese, Long, Boner, Wells, Bolin, Sehirm, Davis, L. Front row: Dee, McCabe, McKenzie, Stern, Lawshe, Mulhern, Davis, B Bee ancl Cee Swimming The traditionally strong Roman Bee team completed another successful season this year. In spite of losing their first dual meet to Inglewood by a fairly close score of 36-29, the Bees rapidly improvedg and in the next meet, they triumphed over John Marshall High School, 59-16. Filled with enthusiasm, the team traveled to Whittier to engage in a swim-fest With one of the most powerful teams they were to encounter all season. Edged out by Whittier and Fullerton, they came back with a 68-7 win over Hamilton High. The Bees dropped their next meet to Huntington Beach High. The L.A. team, in their next and last dual meet, beat Huntington Park, and won all but two events. The score of this swimming meet was 49-26. Outstanding members of this year's team were: Stern and Laushe, breaststrokeg Page, Boner, Davis, McCabe, diving. All the teams are anxiously waiting for the City Championships scheduled for May 7th. The team was efficiently managed by Paul Ridenour. This season L.A. High School was graced with a powerful little team of Cee swim- mers. Not only did this midget team win most of its encounters, but those that were lost were of close scores. These swimmers have trained diligently all season and have earned themselves a place in the swimming spotlight this year. The Cees trimmed Marshall, 32-7, after losing their first meet to Inglewood. A tough meet to lose was the one with Whittier, in which the score was 20-19 in the Cardinal's favor. After losing to Fullerton, the Cees retaliated with a spectacular 36-3 win over Hamilton High. The rejuvenated Roman swim team then beat Huntington Beach, 22-16. These last two victories seemed to set them really going strong, for they captured their last meet with Huntington Park by a score of 29-10. Oustanding members of this year's team were: Shiba, Bernard, McClure, Morrisey, Aleman, and Compere, freestyle, Pattison, Borden, and Kirk, breaststrokeg Bacon and Sullivan, backstroke. The team was expertly managed by Weymouth Lacy. Rear row, left to right: Martin, McClure, Morrissey, Wilson, Borden, Sullivan, Front row: Pattison, Compere, Bernand, Bacon, Aleman, Shiba. f - ---H .

Attarian Blue Dodson French Faced with the task of welding a unified ball club out of the few returning lettermen of last year's varsity team, Coach Herbert E. White deserves special credit for building a spirited, smooth func- tioning ball club. With but Jim Attarian, versatile Roman ball horse-hider who has played every posi- tion on the team, and Clark Handley, the holder of the hot-corner spot, returning from last year's cellar club, the task seemed difficult. However by winning five out of seven games during the practice season, the Roman nine appeared better than the pre-season view warranted. This was the first year that the newly formed City League functioned, and so the Romans entered it with high spirits of a successful season. These high spirits were not only figuratively dampened, but literally. The incessant rains ruined Rome's practice sessions for several days before the first league encounter against Huntington Park, L.A. High beat Huntington Park, 3-1, in a practice game: then the Los Angeles warriors entered the fray slight favorites, but they were doomed for defeat be- cause of a sudden attack of erroritis. Ned Klingen- smith twirled for L.A. and held Huntington Park scoreless until the fourth when the Park boys pushed over three tallies. In the fifth, they scored three more, and the two deciding runs were tallied in the sixth. The Romans came back in their half of the fifth with three, and three more crossed the plate in the sixth. However, in the seventh, two sharp L.A. hits were stopped by alert boys from the Park, and the Pioneer rally fell short. All due credit must be given to Klingensmith, who not only held his oppo- nents to three bingles, but at the same time led the Roman attack with hits, three out of four times at bat. Score, 6-8. After several postponements, the Roman War- riors finally took the field for the second time this season against the Hamilton Yankees. Their first meeting in the Dorsey Tournament saw L.A. on the long end of an 18-9 score. The Yankees proved to be hospitable guests as L.A. opened our home season by winning 15-3. Jim Attarian started on the hill and was relieved by Ned Klingensmith when the going became tough. Trailing 3-2 in the sixth, the Romans really started to work and did not stop until ten batsmen had crossed the plate safely. The big inning Shapiro beats out a hit into 'right field. started when Attarian singled and Clark Handley, Omatsu, and Bob Gilbert doubled. From then on, it was a Yankee swan song. This was the first time in a long span of years that an L.A. nine had topped Hamilton. Hendrix Blue, Rome shortstop, had the fielding gem of the dayg he made a sensational, leap- ing catch of a Yankee hit, and doubled a runner at second. Playing their second home game in two days, the Roman batters proved that they loved their home diamond, Hollywood was the victim, it lost by the score of 20-3. The Sheiks jumped out in front with three runs in the firstg but L.A. came back with three of their own in the second, and two more in the fourth. This was just a Warning of the ex- plosion in the fifth, which saw FIFTEEN runs across the plate. Klingensmith weakened in the fifth, and gave way to Stuart, who finished beautifully. In the big inning, Harold Handley, catcher, set some sort of a record, hitting safely three times in that inning. French also contributed to the attack, getting two hits for the day. As games came and went, it became more appar- ent that the Pioneers appreciated their home dia- mond. Rome's rampaging ball players were exceed- ingly meek visitors. At Bell High, the invading Ro- mans lost a heart-breaker. Gordon Stuart pitched a brilliant game, allowing but two hitsg but he was robbed of victory as the Roman infielders became exceedingly gracious and insisted that the other one take a high pop fly. lt fell between them. The next Eagle batter singled to right, only to have the ball continue past the outfielder for Bell's two runs, All of the Roman punch was provided by Attarian, who collected the only two hits of the day for the Pioneer batters. However, it must be stated that fate stepped in and played a part as Los Angeles batters failed in the pinches. The final score read Bell 2, L.A., 1. The Roman horsehiders traveled to Fremont next, and returned home with a 9-2 defeat. It was the largest score against the local nine all season. Kling- ensmith started but was relieved by Gordy Stuart in the third. Rome's only hits and runs came in the fourth. Richartz singled, and Jim Attarian hit a long home run over the centerfield fence. The Fre- mont nine was truly superior. Gilbert Handley, C. Handley, H. Klingensmith Omatsu Mow-joseph Blue braces himself to smash a fast ball into the outfield. Richartz Following the Fremont game, the boys of the Rimpau Street school visited Jacob Riis High, and came home with a 3-2 defeat trailing them. Bob Gil- bert started on the mound but struck a wild streak in the second, allowing two runs. Stuart relieved him and pitched steady ball for the rest of the game, In the fourth, the Romans scored one on a walk to Jeep, and singles by Attarian, French, and More- joseph. Still believing that there is no place like home, L.A. returned to Housh Field to play the boys from Jefferson. Stuart pitched good ball, allowing but two runs and four hits. The Romans made all their runs in the fourth, Gilbert got one of his three hits, along with French and Clark Handley. Score: Rome, 45 Jefferson, 2. The Roman nine lost its first home game of the season when the Venice Gondoliers upset L.A., 4-2. Ned Klingensmith started on the mound for the locals, but he was relieved in the fifth by Attarian. Bob Gilbert drove in both of the Roman runs with his second hit of the game, a double to left in the fifth. Against the Dorsey Dons, Gordy Stuart received some shaky support in the first inning, and the Dons took advantage of it to score three runs and build up a lead that the White-men were never able to over- come, for they went down to defeat, 5-3. Hendrix Blue and Clark Handley teamed together to score all of the Roman runs and to contribute four of the five hits, Both of Handley's hits were doubles over the left field fence. University came to play the last home game of the local ball seasong and Los Angeles, despite a 3-2 extra inning defeat, played the best ball the boys had played all season. University was one of the too teams of the City League: and behind the steady, if not spectacular, pitching and fielding of Jim Attarian, ace Roman ball player of the year, the Romans were able to send the invaders home with the memory that they had been in a ball game. Believing in the old motto, Save the best for the lastf' the Roman nine completed its season against Fairfax and outshone by far any other effort, L.A. High won, 6-1. It was the first local win away The fans cheer as Handley tags out a slidi-ng Hollywood player. from Housh Field, and as it should have been, it was the seniors who paved the way to victory. Hendrix Blue led off with a hit to leftg and after two unsuc- cessful attempts to sacrifice, Clark Handley poled a long home run down the left field line. Yaylian, ace of the Colonial staff, was pitching at the time. Con- tinuing the onslaught, French received a life on an errorg Attarian doubled to centerg and Red Gilbert dropped a single in center-field, giving L.A. a 3-0 lead. The Romans scored two more in the second. Again, it was the top of the batting order doing the work. There was no further scoring until the last inning when French, Gilbert, and Harold Handley all singled, bringing in one run. With two away in the seventh and none on, it appeared as though Attarian were to pitch the only Roman shut-out of the year, but two doubles over the short right-field fence brought in the lone Colonial tally. Attarian ended the game striking-out the last Fairfax batter, making it nine for the day, and ending the game in beautiful style. Extra innings: , . . Mike Marienthal, up from the second varsity, played in the last Fairfax game .... The outstanding play of the season was made by Blue, Roman shortstop, when he made aa. sensational one-handed stop of a Hamilton liner and doubled the runner off second, ending the game. . . Outstanding hitting feat was Harold Handley's three hits in one inning. . . The most improved player was Gerald French, first-baseman. . . The top batters for the season included Blue, French, Attarian, Gilbert, and Ned Klingensmith, . . For the second consecutive year, Rome entered the finals of the Dorsey consola- tion round championship, and again was defeated, Huntington Park won, 7-1. Shapiro hit a home-run for the only Roman tally. Warren Dodson served his third year as manager of the team, and his service to the school and to the team could not go without mention. Concluding thoughts: Although not the best team L. A. has ever had, the Roman nine upheld the name of the school both at home here and at other schools. The boys fought hard and did their best, To the team, from the school, thanks for the Work done and the memories of another season of good baseball! To Mr. White: our gratitude for your leadership! ff,-. ,f i, 1 Shapiro Stuart Turner ---- Y, V 17 --V-----1 V Bee and Cee BGSCLDGH Rear row, left to right: Weinstein.

After a very successful season of practice games in which not a game was lost, the Roman second varsity opened its regular League season with a 14-2 win over Hamilton. Our assault was led by Marienthal and Shows while the Hamilton attack was stymied by Campbell on the mound. Goldinger pitched a two-hit, one-run game against Hunt- ington Park as the locals were gathering three runs ou four hits. Mike Marienthal again led the hit department with two. It was Campbell's turn to pitch next, and he twirled the Romans to a 12-3 win over the Fairfax Colonials. Campbell set eleven of the Colonial batters down on strikes, six of which came in succession. With this win, L.A. made a clean sweep of its games with Fairfaxg the varsity and tenth grade also beat the Coloni- als. The Romans kept their win record clean as they defeated Inglewood, 8-2. Goldinger pitched, striking out seven. Wildness on the part of Campbell and Goldinger enabled Unihi to give the Romans their first defeat of the season, 18-2. L.A. came back on the right side of the ledger against Dorsey and won, 9-8. Campbell started but was relieved by Goldinger. With a chance to tie for the championship, and leading Hollywood going into the sixth, 7-4, the Romans became erratic and presented the Sheiks with four runs on one hitg Rome lost the lead, 8-7, and the game. This season's record reads: five wins and two losses, and second place in the City League. The team was ably coached by Mr. Fausto Topete, assisted by Mr. Herbert E. White. The tenth grade baseball team opened its 1941 season with a 5-1 victory over Fair- fax. With Dick Klingensmith on the mound in most of the practice games, the Romans gave warning that they would have a strong team. In the Colonial game, Klingensmith struck out fourteen batters. L.A. had to come from behind to beat Dorsey, 11-9. Pete Stafford started on the hill against Banning, but he had to be relieved by Klingensmith in the third with the score 11-2 against him: the Romans lost, 11-9. The Venice Gondo- liers never hit the ball past the infield as Klingensmith set them down with a no-hit, no-run pitching exhibitiong L. A. went on to win, 9-0. The Romans closed their season losing a toughie to Fremont, 3-1, although Klingensmith gave up but one hit While the locals were garnering four. This season's record reads: three Wins and two losses. The team was coached by Curt Fisher and managed by Astor Nubar. The regulars included: Horsey, Richartz, McDonald, Kasai, Siegel, Orazco, Yamaguchi, Wolochow, Weatherly, Basso, and Klingen- smith. McKinnon, Sellers, Stafford, and Williams also were on the squad. Rear row, left to right: Orozco, Williams, Klingensmith, D., Stafford, Yamaguchi, Basso, Mifson.

His top mark of 11'6 made him second man in this event. J OE BARRY-Barry was the high point man of the team this year. It was Joe's second year on the varsity squad, and his times of 19.7 and 15.2 seconds in the low- and high-hurdle events placed him as one of the best performers in the city.

The 1941 track squad opened its season with a practice meet with last year's city champions, Jefferson High School. Although Jefferson came out on top, L.A.'s track force established itself as a definite threat to retain the Western League Champion- ship title. The men participating in the field events made a fine showingg George Eich- staedt won a first, and Sherman of L. A. nabbed a third. Ace sprinters, Dick Hambleton and Morris Turner, picked up two seconds and a third between them. In the 880, War- ren Brown and Bob Wood took second and third places respectively, followed closely by Roman Bill Lerche. The high hurdles were well taken care of by timber-toppers Joe Barry and Bob Hollingsworth, who finished in that order. Spann of L. A. took the third spot in a fast 440. Rorne's low-hurdlers made a clean sweep in their eventsg ace hurdlers Joe Barry, Jim Renfrew, and Bob Hollingsworth took the iirst three places. Louis Shore managed to take a third in the mile behind two fast Jefferson milers. Opening the league season in the right fashion, L. A. easily rolled over its iirst league opponent, Dorsey. In the 100, the Romans were humbledg but Dick Hambleton and Moe Turner came back to flash through the 220, and took the first two places in fast time. The crowd cheers as a Roman captures the 220. Roman hurdlers lead the way in the high-hunile event. . In the 440, little Tommie Carter nabbed a third behind Palmer and Schnider of Dorsey. Warren Brown and Bob Wood took second and third places behind Broadway of Dorsey in the 880. In the high hurdles, Romans Barry and Hollingsworth won first and second place- with Cain of Dorsey close behind. In the broad-jump, flashy Moe Turner leaped 21 feet, 55 inches to nab first place. The pole-vault was swept by L. A. with Baker Lee, Bradley Accosta, and Carson, all from L. A., who placed first, second and third. L. A.'s low hurdlers, Joe Barry, Jim Renfrew, and Bob Hollingsworth, finished far ahead of their opponents in fast time. Rome's field event men made a fine showing with new- comer Jack Forman of L.A. and George Eichsteadt also of L.A. taking a. first and a second. L.A.'s 8-man relay team, composed of Barry, Renfrew, Hollingsworth, Lee, Sha- fer, Unmack, Turner, and Hambleton, made a fine showing and established itself a threat in the Western League championship meet and in the City Finals. Moving into its third week of competition, and humbling Hamilton High, 'ZZV2 to 325, the strong Roman cinder forces swept into their second Western League victory. Cap- turing flrsts for Los Angeles High School were Moe Turner in the broad-jump, Joe Barry breaks the tape far ahead of panting rwals TRACK VARSITY The towers of Rome provide a fitting backdrop for our champion hurdlers. Barry in the low hurdles, Dick Hambleton in the 220, Tommy Carter in the 440, Warren Brown in the 880, Louis Shore in the mile, and Bob Hollingsworth in the high hurdles. Little Tommie Carter ran a fast 440 to garner a surprise Win and establish himself as a threat in the coming meets. Moe Turner was high point man of the meet by placing first in the broad jump, second in the 100, and third in the 220. Joe Barry, hurdle-hopper, garnered a second in the highs and a, iirst in the lows. Bob Hollingsworth gained an unexpected victory in the high hurdles and showed himself to be a top contender in the League finals. Rome swept the pole-vault with ace vaulter, Baker Lee, taking number one spot. Goodwin and Lane finished close behind Turner in the broad-jump. Mason of L.A. managed to garner a second in the high jump. Bob Wood of L.A., running a fine race and putting on a tremendous sprint at the end, managed to take second behind Roman Warren Brown to clinch the 880 for L. A. Climaxing the meet, Rome's eight- man relay team gave the spectators some real thrills and made the fast time of 3:05. The team ran in the following order: Joe Barry, Jim Renfrew, Tommie Carter, Ted Unmack, Art Shafer, Bob Hollingsworth, Moe Turner, and Dick Hambleton. Shafer takes the batcm in a thrilling relay duel. Tommie Carter thrills the crowd with another Roman victory. On May 9th, the Roman track aggregation trecked to its arch riVal's cinder path to meet Fairfax in our League duel with the Colonials. The Romans Were keyed up and rolled over the strong Fairfax squad, 62121 to 3614. Dick Hambleton ran the fastest race of his career in winning the 220-yard dash in 22.4. Joe Barry, Rome's top hurdler, showed fine form in capturing the highs in 15.2 and the lows in the fast time of 19.7. Baker Lee turned in the outstanding mark of the meet by soaring to 12 feet, 8 inches in the pole vault. Lee also garnered a second in the low hurdles. Los Angeles High swept the 440 with Romans Spann, Carter, and Turner putting on a tremendous home stretch sprint to win for L. A. Louis Shore ran the mile to cop first place with Bob Wood of L. A. close behind. A Fairfax man by the name of Jack Ogg ran an exceptionally fast last lap, almost catching the two Romans, Shore and Woods. , In closing its last Western League track season, the Victorious 1941 track squad will long be remembered. Only through the expert coaching of Mr. Homer Graves, Mr. Bert La Brucherie, and Mr. Philo Chambers, was L. A.'s squad able to keep its suprem- acy. As long as Los Angeles High School turns out such fineathletes as were on this year's team, we need never fear of an unsuccessful track and field season. Baker Lee 'vaults 12' 8 for the seaso'n's best mark TRACK Rome's ,fighting Bee squad won the Western League Championship this season. Bee and C22 -I-l'6CI4 Los Angeles High's Bee track and field squad opened its League season by de- feating a powerful Dorsey squad, 505 to MM. In establishing this triumph over the Dons, the powerful Bee squad filed early notice of its championship hopes. Increas- ing its winning streak to two, the Bee squad trounced the Hamilton high Bee team, 53 to 42, on the victor's home field. Little Jackie Howard, star of the Bee squad, highlighted the victory with two firsts and a second. On May ninth, Los Angeles' Bee team traveled to the oval of our rival, Fairfax High. In defeating this strong Co- lonial squad, 625 to 3lV2, the Romans came one step closer to a Western League championship. In winning the League title this year, the Roman Bee squad displayeda well-bal- anced team. With such boys as Jackie Howard in the 100, Ed Spearman in the 1320, and Stoval and Callendar in the 660, it is little wonder that L.A.'s Bee track and field team became the Western League Champions of 1941. At the beginning of the season, the Cee track and iield team lacked material. In losing its Western League opener, 50 to 26, to a powerful Dorsey squad, the Romans showed much room for improvement. In its second encounter, however, a much im- proved Roman midget squad made up for the previous loss by swamping a Hamilton High Cee team, 59 to 17. With such boys as West, Spearman, Tanaka, Sambert, Ju- enger, and Link, L.A. always put up a tough battle. Throughout the season, the Cee squad steadily improved, andat this writing, it is placed to' be high on the list in the League Iinals which are soon to be held here at Los Angeles High. Yes?

A Within this room are placed lasting tributes to the achievements of Los Angeles High School's outstanding students. The Trophy Room Los Angeles High School is deeply rooted in a tradition which for sixty-eight years has been made glorious by the achievements of her students. He who steps through the doorway into the trophy room, truly a shrine of tradition, is over- whelmed with the realization that honor and glory have been bestowed upon our alma mater solely through the efforts of the boys and girls who in years past have been imbued with the spirit of determination which Los Angeles High School fosters in her students. Emblems for victories in athletics, trophies for triumphs in oratory, medals for Semi-Annuals, and banners for those who have achieved honor in scholarship cover the walls and fill the cases in this gallery of our illustrious past. The thrill of com- petition, the heartache of disappointment, the exaltation of victory are vividly realized by him who enters this room, this sanctum of honor. The glitter of the gold and silver which gild the trophies may fade with time, but the glorious achievements of those who have been responsible for the honors enshrined herein will never be forgotten. Truly, it is an inspiration to Visit this chamber of honors which links the splendor of the past with the achievements of today. It is here that we become fully aware of the tradition which has made Los Angeles High School an institution of learning whose students strive harder and succeed more often in athletic, oratorical, and scholastic competitions. t -ftfjffif iiri Eplwebian Society is 'H' 'Si .

Thus, in these ways, We will transmit this city not only no less, but far greater than it was transmitted. The ancient pledge of the Athenian youth inspired Dr. Albert Shields, former super- intendent of the Los Angeles City Schools, to found the Ephebian Society. Each term since 1918, the high schools of Los Angeles have conferred the honor of Ephebian mem- bership on one of every forty students in the graduating classes. Those that have proven, during their high school years, that they are outstanding in scholarship, leadership, and character are chosen by the Faculty and A12 students to be the members of this honored society. The members realize their responsibility in striv- ing toward the goal of peaceful international relations. The following students of the Los Angeles High School have been elected into the Ephebian Society for the Class of Summer 1941: Denis Babson, Robert Boltz, Thomas Carter, Janet Comlossy, Marie Frazier, Richard Hambleton, Betty Kenney, Marilyn Mur- ray, Peggy Neily, James Neville, Blossom Parke, Beverley Sinclair, Bill Spragins, Ted Unmack, Jean Working.

Johnson Forbes Ripley The Forbes Ripley Scholarship was presented to the Los Angeles High School in 1930 by Mrs. Edward Ripley, in memory of her grandson Captain Forbes Ripley, R. O. T. C. adjutant, Class of Summer, 1928. The high ideals he upheld are an inspiration to all oiiicers, and his loyalty and patriotism might well be followed by all youth. He died as bravely as he had lived, saluting the Hag of the United States. A member of the R. O. T. C. unit, who possesses the same outstanding qualities that were fundamental in the character of Forbes Ripley, receives this award each year. The deepest gratitude is extended to Mrs. Fredrick Ripley for this award because of the goal it offers to the oiflcers of the R. O. T. C. This year, Captain Robert W. Johnson, Winter '41 has been deemed worthy of the signal honor of being awarded the Forbes Ripley Scholarship. When hearts are filled with love, there is no space For grief, no room to consecrate to sorrow. The brave of soul, instead, turn toward tomorrow For consolation. Brave was she whose face That might have rested grey with Veils of grief Turned patiently and saw the eager glow In eyes of other youth who will to know The ways of life, and in them found relief. The seeds of faith in her son deeply sown Thus blossomed, leading other youth to rise To meet the future, shining in their eyes The vibrant light of truth that was his own.
