AUMI ISTHATIU This year we have seen many changes in our daily lives. These changes have occurred due to our country's transformation from a peace-time economy to a war-time economy. The opportunity for service and the need of sacrifice for the welfare of mankind was pre- sented to every high school student. The reaction to the appeal was positive and was one in which every loyal Norman should feel proud that he had a part. lt is your responsibility to see that the days ahead are filled with worthwhile accomplishments. Such accomplishments will help our country achieve victory and a lasting peace. To those students who will be leaving us this year to take a more active part in the war effort we extend our best wishes. We trust that the training that you have received at Beverly Hills l-ligh School will be of great assistance to you in your future years. R. G. MITCHELL 9
