will be the ever present opportunity for the newcomers to win the affections of the youth who make up the senior high population. As seniors who will say farewells in late May, the year in retrospect has many, many bright moments: they'll always remain as highlights in our memories. But it doesn't require too much skill as a prophet or the wisdom of a sage to make a long range prediction of what is in store for the next year. Happily, and most fortunate for the members of the new classes, we can forecast the end of the war in Europe, banishing the tension that has tenaciously hung over the heads of the present graduating class since their entry into the senior high school. And, we hope, the days of rationing will be at an end. We, as Americans, would vehemently deny the slightest lack of patriotism in doing our best to carry on during the war days but the dreams of peace and the return of dear ones seems almost too good to be true. We can foretell, again with sound reasoning and the logic of good judgment, that the Maroons will conquer the Tigers next fall on the football field, that the basketball team will wear the state crown, that Fred Major will produce a lion's share of the state champions in wrestling, and Harold Jester's tracksters will establish new records. We hope, too, that the newswriting classes will once more tackle the production of a yearbook, that the writing and publishing arts will go forward under the sympathetic guid- ance of an adviser who refuses to be balked by the inconveniences and discouragements that may look like mountains. And finally we hope that there will be no let-up in that constant striving for mastering the daily lessons and the following example established each year by the graduates in making Champaign Senior High School one of the outstanding schools in the state. And so, just as 1944-45 has been OUR big year in school, we leave the future to YOU of the next graduating class. Do with it as you may. . The Maroon ' 23
