fyoSl UJOSU . . . We have been careful that they that read may have delight, and that they that are desirous to commit to memory might have ease, and that all into whose hands it comes might have profit, 2 Maccabees 11, 25 In this quotation From Maccabees our hopes For the Key of 1942 are well expressed. We trust that you who read will find profit and delight in the reading and much that is worth-while to keep in memory. We feel that a year book should be a record in picture and writing of the school year. Our theme, if it can be called a theme, is Panorama, and the book is intended to be just that—a panorama of life at Benjamin Franklin High School in this our senior year. This is a memorable year in world history, and it is inevitable that world events should have impinged upon our school life. We could not and would not be oblivious to the War and all it means. Some mem- bers of this class are already in the armed forces of our country. Many more are giving generously of their time and effort to defense classes, Red Cross work, and every other sort of patriotic endeavor. It is right that these interests and activities should color our book as they have colored our lives. Their presence here makes this Key a bit of history that is more than personal. II this year book keeps alive for us the happy memories of our school life and the pleasant days we spent here together, learning, growing, and becoming better Americans, we shall be amply rewarded for the time and effort we have expended. Now, may we present to you, for whom it has been written, a graphic and literary record of life at Benjamin Franklin High School—the Key of 1942.
