Qezzibzzdbfz O POLY SERVICEMEN EVERYWHERE . . . who have unselfishly given their services, and in many cases their lives for their country, the Senior Class of 1945 dedicates this their yearbook. Throughout the past five years, Poly men have loyally upheld the traditions and honor of both their country and school. In every branch and field of service, they have continually distinguished themselves through meritorious and outstanding achievements. We feel confident that in the future, these men and those who will follow, shall continue to lead the field not only in war, but in peace. X . W 1' 4?
