EIWIN LE TENDRE, Principol film PAL’S wmm TRY TO BE SOMEBODY . Once there was a king who wanted everyone in his kingdom to be as good and as rich as he . . . the verse, as I remember it, went something like this: Now that's the kind of a king for me, Who wished all men as rich as he, So to the top of every tree. Promoted everybody. Then everybody was somebody, And no one was anybody. You high seniors will soon be thrust into a world of competition. You will find competition in business; competition in industry; competition in institutions of higher learning; and competition even if you decide to do nothing at all. Whatever you do, try to be useful. Choose a vocation, or an avocation, which is pleasing to you, and one in which you will find satisfaction and happiness. There is room in the world for each of you if each of you finds his proper place. You have proved by the cooperation which you have shown in school that you vary greatly as individuals, yet collectively you wield power which gave leadership to your group. The world is clamoring for people who know what they want, where they want to go, and what they want to do. Do not waste your time by trying to sit on the same tree-top with everyone else. Try to be somebody !

F II li K IV II It II The Pod staff of Fall '45 takes pleasure in presenting to you the first postwar Olla Podrida. As all the early postwar articles, it is minus a great deal of the glitter of the prewar predecessors. Yet, we, the staff, look with pride on this yearbook. By the small cartoons throughout the book we have attempted to show you some of the things peace will bring. We feel we were privileged to be the class to dedicate its book to the peacetime future. The staff has spent many hours turning out a book worthy of such dedication. As the excitement of the presentation draws near, I would like to pause and thank every member of this hard-working staff and its real instigator, Mrs. Sidney Wales. Had it not been for her, this book would not have reached its successful conclusion. We of the staff will feel we have succeeded in our purpose if this Olla Podrida brings back to you some of the joys of Berkeley High. We hope you, the students, will enjoy this book—it is for you.
