CTheme This is the first publication of the Torch” to be published by the student body instead of the Senior Class. It is the second issue since our country became involved in this second World War. Our fellowmen are doing their part for victory in the front lines, in the factories, and on the farms. Soon we students, especially the Seniors, will take our places alongside our countrymen. Meanwhile, we are supporting the boys up front by buying War Bonds and Stamps, obeying rationing rules, helping in the scrap drives and in the Victory Corps, and support-ng the Red Cross, U.S.O., and Army and Navy Relief Societies. Some of us who expect to enter the armed forces and war factories are studying pre-induction courses in mathematics, physics, and shop. We all should try to keep our physical fitness as high as possible. When peace again comes to this war-torn world, we must be ready to assume our responsibilities in the world. We must make sure that this is really a lasting peace.” We must be prepared to take our places as scientists, housewives, farmers, politicians, and business men. We must make the world a pleasant and interesting place to live. We are the future leaders and future citizens of this country. We can and must strive to prepare ourselves to serve our country and our fellowmen during this conflict and the peace that follows. V Page 4 • •
