Cleveland High School - Aquila Yearbook (Seattle, WA)

The school year of 1942-1943 has been one of constantly changing problems. Never before have there been so many extra demands on a pupil's time, never have there been so many conditions tending to hamper school progressg never so many temptations to drop school en- tirely. During all periods of emergency and stress the weaklings drop by the roadside, not able or will- ing to face their problems. Many others, how- ever, rise to meet the challenge, gaining strength from adversity, and reaching higher levels of achievement than ever before thought possible. Heroes are born when the going is toughest. Cleveland students are proving they can meet anything that is yet ahead of them. Kemwlb 5. Selig

Robert Louis Stevenson once said. So long as we love, we serve, so long as we are loved by others, we are, I would almost say, indispens- able, and no man is useless while he has a friendf' The ideal of service to school, home. and coun- try is one which has been held high aloft by both the faculty and students during the short sixteen years Cleveland has grown from an idea to a place of recognition among the nine high schools. Service to the school has been consist- ently maintained through many forms of activi- ties. Now these same boys and girls are answer- ing their country's call. The honor list of service men which stands in the hall grows daily. From Bataan, Alaska, Africa, Iceland, Solomons. the Atlantic, the Pacific, and the home front come words of their achievements. Our hearts swell with pride when we think of them and our kind- est thoughts and prayers for their safe return go out to them in the remote corners of tl1e earth. RWK fmwi
