Masuan Pjjlux Ucucpi In this year of nineteen hundred forty-five we find our world, our very lives, still engaged in turmoil of strife. Not only is our physical existence threatened daily by the instruments of war, but more fearful, even than physical death, is the threat of destruction to our ideals. It is true, perhaps, that the children of every land hold dear to their hearts certain standards which they are taught to cherish; their patriotism, to a certain extent, is not unlike that of Americans. Beyond that extent, however, lies some force which has made unparalled those words I AM AN AMERICAN! Naturally, war has made the majority of us more conscious of what it means to be an American. The majority today consists of those boys who step from our classrooms onto the battlefields, boys who become men overnight and they know what America stands for.............they know because it is a cause to which they dedicate their lives. Nearly two hundred years ago our ancestors fought to obtain a definite standard for Americanism; today we are fighting to maintain that standard. That we might help in a small way to emphasize the doctrine of Americanism we, the staff of 1945, have based the theme of our La Retama on the Americans' Creed. Our classmates of yesterday are the soldiers of today; we are the men and women of tomorrow. We must, and we do, know what it is to be an AMERICAN! PAGE 6
