Some of tin authors of these sections were Alice Roseoe, Class Prophet; Nancy MacKinnon. Class ill; Ann McBride, Dramatics; David Mardcr and Joan Doyle, Sports; and Shirley Recser. Class Historian. We would like to express our gratitude to the many students who worked in Helen Lynch’s Eligibility Committee to gather data for the Mirror. To train the nation’s youth and lit them for defending their country has been the problem of education since December Seventh. 1941. Now the most universal change to come over education, with the exception of the inauguration of secondary schools, is the now Victory Corps, effective in Columbia since January. This elass is the first to have the advantage of preliminary training in Pre-Flight Aero- nautics, Radio, Theory of Machines, and many other courses. Seniors of '43 have not only spent a year and a half in school under wartime — 19 —

W ally Olcson, Boh McCain, and A1 Long also represent ’43 in the musical world, as members of a rather well- known suburban orchestra. The band we seniors will never forget is the three piece ensemble of Bob. W ally, ami Dick Stocckcr, which has accompanied so many assembly programs; nor will we soon forget Dick Yorkcy’s songs, or Alice Roscoc’s and Bobby Lehman’s inspiring poems. Bv this time everyone will have discerned something unusual about the Mirror. The staffs of Caroline Johnson, editor, Ruth Jacoby, asso- ciat» editor, and Fred Mitchell, business manager, were responsible for the many changes appearing this year. They have devoted more pages to the individual student pictures and have tried to offer greater space — 18 —

This year has brought the school something new besides the Victory Corps. 'Pbc old schedule of assembly programs has been altered beyond recognition. Now each presentation is given twice during the day set aside for assembly, and that day is interchangeable with any of the other four when it is deemed necessary. Therefore we often have Wednesday before and after school but Friday while we are in school.
