SENIOR HISTORY We, the class of 43, about to graduate from Columbia High School, arc acutely aware of the problems facing us in the world today. Never before in the history of the school has so much responsibility been placed upon the shoulders of its youth. We must fight to preserve the life we have known for almost two decades; and later, in peace- time, we must re-establish and improve this daily pattern. Three years in Columbia has shaped our ideals and standards. Here has begun the preparation for our future work and living. With the hope of aiding or benefiting Columbia and of preserving her tradi- tions, we have strived towards a goal of perfect student activity and government. hat we, as potential citizens, will he able to accomplish later is partially indicated by those things which we have done in our school. — 12 —

Through the efforts of the sophomore class officers—Cal Carver, Herb Piken. and Dick Yorkcy—and through soph- omore support and assistance, the Columbian resumed publication.
