1) 5 D J £ i) ' ! J D 1) The international life of peoples manifests itself in three different ways; either in hostile relations (war), in pacific neutral relations (commerce), or in sympathetic relations (exchange cf ideas, feelings, feasts, congresses, etc.). — J. Deniker. For a period of twenty years, interna- tionalism has been maintained through commerce. Perhaps commerce has been too competitive for the full development of friendly relations among nations. At least, the world has swung actively into the hostile phase of internationalism. As a result, many of our friends and asso- ciates, ready or not, have had to become practical internationalists. We hope that when they have finished fighting for the ideals of humanity, they and the rest of us will follow up with the third phase, sympathetic relations with all nations of the world. When this war is over, they can return to normal pursuits. But they can never forget their contacts with the people of other nations. They will have a broader understanding of other ways and ideas of living. They will know that each nation needs the others. It is to these internationalists of our school — our teachers and senior class- mates who have had to leave their friends, families, jobs and education to take part in this world-wide test of right and justice for all nations — that we dedi- cate this Follies of 1944. Miss Mary Brandon, our former sing- ing instructress, is now with the American Red Cross. After the completion of her three-months training at Washington, D. C, she journeyed to Casablanca, North Africa. She is at present on the Isle of Capri, which is in the Bay of Naples, helping to entertain members of the Fifth Army who are recuperating there. Delmar Johnson entered the Navy last July. His boot training took place at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station. He spent four months at the Diesel School at Navy Pier, Chicago. At present he is sta- tioned at Camp Bedford, Norfolk, Virginia. Miss Jones, our former typing instruc- tress, received her training for the Spars in New London, Connecticut, at the Coast Guard Academy with seventy-one others. She was in Officers ' Training. After re- ceiving an honorable discharge because of a back disability, Miss Jones returned to Chicago and is at present teaching in the Jones Commercial High School. Jack Kelley entered the service last summer. He spent five months in Camp Bowie, Texas, for engineer ' s training in a combat battalion. At Shreveport, Louisi- ana, he went on maneuvers. The Navy has now transferred him back to Camp Bowie, where he is a private first class. Eugene Simanton has become a fire- man first class. At the Great Lakes Naval Training Station he took nine weeks boot training and eight weeks school course in basic engineering training. Traveling to Shoemaker, California, Gene spent six weeks at a replacement center. He is now on the Ship U.S.S. Dorsey somewhere off the coast of New Caledonia. Byron Fahnestock, seaman second class, is training for a gunner ' s position on a bomber in Jacksonville, Florida. He took four months boot training at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station. From there he went to Norman-Purcell, Okla- homa, where he took his pre-gunner ' s training. James Stebing has taken the uniform of the Army and is a private first class. He was sent to Camp Irwin in California and for the past year has taken his training in both Camp Irwin and Camp Haan, California. Walter Kail, Red, took his boot train- ing at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station for six weeks, and then completed a course of five weeks in a gunnery school. At New York he was assigned as an armed guard on a merchant ship which made trips to South America. He has crossed the Atlantic, and he took part in the invasion of Sicily. He is now on duty in New York as a seaman first class. Mr. Kenneth Ettner (Corporal Ettner at present) left us last May to take residence in Jefferson Barracks, Missouri, where he trained to be a mechanic in the Air Corps. In June he was transferred to Casey Jones, Newark, New Jersey, for further training. He finished his course at Atlantic City, New Jersey, and left the country in No- vember for England, where he is now stationed in the supply department of a base unknown. Mr. Gerhart Schwartz was our speech and English teacher before he left last January to enter the Navy. He is now a disbursing officer in a Communications School at Camp Pendleton, Oceaside, California, and has the title of Ensign. Page 2
