Page af f . if 1-sf ft Glass flisfvry On january 23, 1939, lll timid rookies enlisted together as an army of ununiformed men cmd women to start their basic training at Camp Commerce, S. E. 26th and Powell Boulevard. Unacquainted with camp rules and regulations, these new recruits were thersubject of much embarrassment and confusion-a veritable awkward squad. At the first roll call, the com- mander reported that 41 were Portlandersy 15 were born in states west of the Rocky Mountains: one in Canada, and one in Alaska. Some found the camp discipline too strict and transferred to other camps. Later, reinforcements discovered the advantages of our training and joined forces with us. Then, just after a long awaited furlough, we received a communique from General Head- quarters telling us that we had earned our Freshman stripes. We again went into action and gained considerable ground in the bombardment of home work of the Sophomore Division. Drilling did not take all our time, however. During our leisure moments we took active part in clubs and athletics. We also won several inter-class track meets. Later when we were promoted to the junior Brigade, we became officers of clubs and non- coms in athletics. More maneuvers: we hacked our way within striking distance of our goal and finally gained a solid foot-hold on our objective. Fifty-three are generals in the stenographic field, 16 have special technical training in bookkeeping and 10 are even better prepared to lead in both stenographic and bookkeeping fields, while three are doubly prepared for clerical work. Thirty answered roll call promptly and three were always present and on time for all activities. New positions were assigned to 31 in different fields throughout the city, and 12 plan to attend officers' training school for further instructions in their chosen field. Fourteen were awarded medals of honor for outstanding ability in their assigned duties. Now, the battle is over. As we pack our duffle bags to leave Camp Commerce, we regret- fully haul down our Senior flag which has flown proudly for the past year. No bugle will sound retreat: taps will not be heard: instead the call to arms will roll out. The unshed tears, the catch in our throats atthe thought of leaving camp gives way to clear eyes and squared jaws in preparation of what is to come. We are equipped and fully fortified to join the ranks of those who have gone before us and leave camp to the competent leaders of the division to follow. K.

I shall do my best to acquit myself honorably. When we entered these halls four years ago, the world was not yet in a state of total wary but the clouds were hanging low over our heads and it became increasingly apparent that before too long a time had passed the world would once more be embroiled ln a conflict to preserve the freedom and liberty for which our fathers had fought in the years which now lte behind us. Today we are in the midst of that conflict. Today our brothers, our fathers, relatives, and friends are involved in the struggle to preserve for coming generations that American ideal for which our fore- fathers fought: FREEDOM. In many ways we are glad that what was once a horrible nightmare of apprehension has become grim reality, because we can now look forward to the day when the conflict will be over and when young people will once more be able to complete their educations with the expectatlonof putting their skills to work in a world of peace and a world of liberty. Our classmates of five or ten years ago had to face the prospect of war. We face the prospect of peace. lust as many of our classmates of former years are serving honorably and admirably in a world at war, we are prepared to serve honorably and admirably in a world at peace. For, just as war calls for hard work, high ideals, and unswerving devotion to duty, peace calls for hard work, high ideals, and unswervtng devotion to duty. We are determined to serve in peace as well as our predecessors have served, and are serving, in war. What we have learned in these four years will stand us in good stead ln the years to come. We have learned efficient office procedure. That will help us perform our duties well in a world of increased business and titanic projects. We have studied history and its kindred subjects. That will enable us to guide our actions from past experi- ences. We have studied English and literature. That will help us understand our culture and the culture of other nations in a world of international goodwill. And our clubs, our student body, and our various other activities have taught us cooperation-the good American way. By working side by side with our classmates, we have learned to respect the opinions of others. It has taught us the priceless quality of cooperation in time of war. ln time of peace without this cooperation man fails his accomplishments. This training has taught us skills, skills that will help our government fill those special jobs for which it now demands the great percentage of 63 out of every 100 men for skilled positions. Today a war-torn America has had to lower its qualifications for industrial work. ln the peace to come only the skilled worker will find chance for achievement. Fortunately we are of this group. We need physical strength so that we can work a full week at full speed instead of half a week at a pace too slow to help us win the war before many more weeks pass. After the war we shall need even greater strength to build a world of equality for all. The importance of a sound body today is obvious. Not only the demands of war but the full-speed day is demanded of every civilian, man and woman. But unless to these skills, to this sound body we bring a consideration for our fellow man, a genuine interest in the welfare of others, a desire to improve the lot of the oppressed, the unfortunate, our work will bring us but a surface satisfaction. Our study of history, of literature has taught us that man can not live to himself alone. The moral training that has been given to us so thoroughly has taught us to face facts openly, to safeguard our- selves against base standards. Our generation is of high ideals. We are just a bit more open in our general ideas than many like to believe. As graduating seniors, we have confidence of our tolerance toward others. We are ready to face the world and take our part ln it. We owe a debt of gratitude to our parents, for they have provided us with the desire for the better things of life and have sacrificed in order that we might have them. We owe a debt of gratitude to the faculty, and to our Principal, Vice-Principal, and Dean, for they have served well as our counsellors, advisors, and instructors during four years of development from Fearful Freshmen to Selfesufficient Seniors. To all of you we say, Thank you . We go out from these halls inexperienced in many ways, but trained thoroughly in our chosen subjects. Perhaps YOU see before you only a group of young people, but we are MORE than that. My classmates and I are Young America, ready to serve, in war or in peace. Together, we join all America in pledging allegiance to OUR flag, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. ELVING ANDERSON.

V3 L in Q 4 r Q Z , mi A Varsity Zfafhall As this article goes to press the 1942 football season for the Com- -merce Stenogs has been none too impressive, at least that is what figures show. But a look at the improvement that the team has made during the season, quickly dispels any thought that the boys Weren't really in each game, pitching for all they were worth. ' With the surprise victory over Camas of 6 to 0 in the second pre- season game of the year, Stenog hopes soared high--we had a real team, one that was going places. However, Coach Warren realized that although the team had been playing outstand- ing ball-that they were still green and lacked the needed experience. Constantly, night after night, he drilled the newcomers to football, the fundamentals of blocking, tackling and charging. As any football coach knows, a team made up of boys who have the will to play but lack experience is a severe handicap, and to add to all the woes of a coach, stellar center Iim Smead was lost through a back injury, a large hole to fill up in any forward wall. Under Warren's regime a new type of ball was inaugurated, not the former type stressed of plowing through the middle, but the lightning fast, deceptive type of ball playing. Strike hard and fast was the watchword. The first league game with Grant saw the boys determined they were going to take the Generals with this new offensive they had recently learned. Costly blocked kicks in the early part of the game paved the way for the G-men's first two touchdowns. Although the two tallies were hard to take, the team charged in on both tries for points and successfully thwarted the Generals' place kicks. Smashed hard in the ribs, hard enough to crack one of them, tackle Don McNamara was lost near the end of the first half. Don's tremendous weight and charging spirit left another hole for the Grant men to drive through, and they quickly capitalized on our disadvantage, to end up the winners of the tiff 38-O. lim Peccia's playing was the one consolation for the Stenog rooters. He was clearly the outstanding player on the field during the game. His sidestepping, stiff arming, and elusive running kept the Generals' backs in hot water whenever he had the ball, and came racing around the end. In the following weeks the team fell to Washington, Roosevelt, Lincoln, and Benson. The outlook for next year's team is bright, as we will have many boys on this year's eleven back, and with the large number of junior players who have been drilled in Coach -Warren's type of football playing we should have a crackeriack team. These are some of the players who saw action on the football team: FRANK ANTONACCI- Notch was one of the few ex- perienced players that Commerce had at the beginning ot the season. Frank played his end position with such great ease that he easily gained a berth on the first string, and from there he constantly snagged passes for sizeable gains. His previous training came in good stead when the team went on the defense, as Frank was consistently bust- ing up plays around his end, and many times would come from nowhere, succeeding in slipping off the opponents' blocks, to hit the ball carrier. JIM SMEAD-lim was the other burly lineman on our squad. Combined with MacNamara, a real pair ol line crunching football players was formed: but as Lady Luck would have it, he too, was injured. Iim's back 'was hit in the lvlilwaukie pre-season game and examination proved that he had snapped several vertabrae-an injury that would not allow him to participate in football for the rest ot the season. However, lim recovered so quickly that he was allowed to get in at the opening of the Franklin tiff. Continued on next page Page 61 Varsity fvfvofball IIM STREET-lim is an excellent example of many of the boys that turned out for our '42 club. Iim lacked the ex- perience oi' previous years of playing, but his ability to grasp what was being taught soon earned him the chance to start as Quarterback in several of our games. Although light for a football team, Street made up for his handicap by his shiftiness and speed. DON MACNAMARA-A rough and ready lineman was Don, and this is verified by the boys he hit on the other teams. His 200 plus pounds were hard to stop when he started to move. Forced to remain on the sidelines a major part of the season due to a rib injury, Big Mac didn't see all the action that he wanted to, and it was a real loss to the team when he was forced to quit. BOB LIND-As long as we're discussing the fellows whom Lady Luck scorned we might as well tell of Bob's fate. Playing with unerring steadiness, Bob was placed on the first team for the Grant game. As an end, he boomed through to stop the General runners, but boomed too hard one time, hit his mouth on someone's frame, and lost three front teeth. With part of his bridgework missing Bob was unable to play in several games, until his mouth had sufficiently healed. Undaunted, though, Bob started in the last games for Commerce, and played just as excellently as he had before. BILL LODWIG-Lodwig was the plunging fullback for the Stenogs this year: it was up to Bill to successfully block out the opponents when we had the ball and to pick up a yard or two in the tight spots. Bill was unusually light for a fullback, but his hitting power came to his rescue. Any fullback has a tough assignment, and one that is seldom glorified: but Lodwig shouldered all the responsi- bility that fell his way with calmness and carried all his assignments through. DOUG CLARK-Clark was one of the outstanding junior backfield men of last year, in fact he showed such ability that he was transferred from the juniors to the varsity at the close of the year. Playing at the quarterback position and sometimes at the left half spot, Doug called the plays and bolstered the team's spirits when things went wrong. BILL ANTONACCI-Bill is the Antonacci who upholds the family tradition in the Commerce backfield., Playing right half, Bill cleared the way for the running backs on many plays, besides packing the mail himself. Bill is perhaps A xlt one of the steadiest players on our team. his fight and enthusiasm a standout on the field. And there is one more item to add-he'll be playing for us next falll GLENN ROMIG-Glenn was one of the alternate ends for Warren's team, although he started in several of the games. His chief asset was his speed, an essential of a good end, and Glenn took advantage of his speed to the chagrin of opposing linemen and backs. This was Car- men's first year out for football and he soon absorbed the essentials of good football playing. BOB RAUCH-Returning from last year's team, Bob was practically assured of a starting position on the team this year. Rauch was the type of lineman, who with his crash- ing weight, was a constant source of trouble to the oppos- ing linechargers. . CLELAND HElNlE ROSE-Rose was the fellow who was in the inverted position during half the game. His world of football was one of bending down, squinting be- tween his legs, and centering the pigskin to the waiting backs with complete accuracy. Rose came through with his difficult assignment to the complete satisfaction of everybody. BILL HRYCIW-Bill deserves a lot of credit for tuming out for football and playing the brand of ball he does. Weighing in the one twenties Bill was severely handi- capped, so everyone thought, when he turned out for an end spot. But I-leric soon proved they were wrong. He took the beating the heavier fellows received and kept coming back for more-findlly they stopped him by slam- ming into his knee-but even then he played when called upon to do so. It is his type of spirit that mcikes real teams. IIM PECCIA- Blackie was the standout star for the Stenogs, there's no doubt of that. Iim, in the left half position, constantly ran circles around the other team, arid many times without interference fought his way through a swarm of tacklers. lim was not just a runner. An out- standing passer, Blackie threw the piggy to our ends for many gains. To be an outstanding triple threat man, a football back must have the ability to punt and Iim possessed this skill also. His long punts often kept the Stenogs out of trouble. Players on the various teams all rated Jim as one of the outstanding backs in the city after they had tried to stop him. Other players who saw plenty of action and improved with as the season progressed were EMERSON GAVIN. BOB HEPP, and ARNOLD Al-ILBERG. X X Fx - X 7 f 1 - I S v, i H E fk .lrl lk x y an If.

Her voice sings loud and clear and In the clangor of a turning wheel, In every patrtot's song. long In conquered lands and far-flung coasts, You can hear that ardent cry still ring. The symbol of democracy, love, and faith Of this we proudly sing. You can see it on the mother's face, As she bids her boy goodybe- As he pats her trembling shoulder And smiles through misted eye. tt He hears that call of Freedom, And he answers with voice so strong, But there is work to be done, and everyone Must help to defeat this wrong. We're young and inexperienced, But we know what this fight is for- Freedom's rights, the right to live, I The right to speak, to pray, and more. Our fathers fought to preserve their rights: They fought to make this country free, But now there's a greater challenge- A task for my classmates and me. We are the ones on whom to depend, The ones who will fight and die, For We'll keep our Freedom untarnished, And our honored flag on high. f-MARIORIE GIEBISCH. left oif. . L'A Y .
