THE TROPAEUM The Class of 1900 inaugurated the custom of publishing an Annual to represent in general the work done by the high school and in particular the activities of the Senior Class. The name Tropaeum, which comes from Greek through the Latin and means 'ta memorial of victory, was selected from a large number of names submitted to the original publishers, as the one most representative of the spirit and purpose of their annual. The ancient Greeks erected a monument of spears, shields, and swords upon the field of victory as their tropaeum. The second volume of The Tropaeum was Published by the Class of 1908. Succeeding volumes were published an- nually until the First World War interrupted publications. The Tropaeum did not appear in the years 1917, 1918 and 1919. After the War, publication of The Tropaeum was resumed and has continued until the present time, except for an in- terval in the 1930's. No volumes were published during the years 1931-1934. With this volume the Class of 1946 continues the custom which was established by the Class of 1900.
