ALMA MATER FOREWORD The staff of the 1944 Corrian takes pleasure in presenting this book-a record of life in Corry Senior High School. This year we were faced with the problem of whether or not to publish an annual as we felt it might be considered unpatriotic to use materials necessary for defense. After proper thought we decided to edit our book and conserve on essential materials by cutting down to a minimum the number of engravings, using as little film as possible, and limiting the number of pages in the book. In our Corrian we have endeavored to depict the social and scholastic activities of the average student. By doing this we hope to acquaint the reader with the future citizen of the United States. We enter High School to learn cooperation and good' sportsmanship, to develop and acquire wholesome traits. W e depart to serve our country and friends. In our hands lies the future.

SUPERINTENDENTS MESSAGE TO SENIORS MR. RALPH S. DEWEY Members of the Senior Class: The priviledge to attend and be graduated from a free public school in the United States is one of the cherished rights of all children in our beloved nation. As long as schools continue to teach pupils How to think and What not to think a spirit of democracy will prevail over any form of dictatorship. The arms of dictation may lengthen in time of conflict but their hands must not be allowed to reach too far or for too long a time. Many of your members have already, or will soon be called upon to engage in the conflict to ward off those who would destroy our democratic ways of life. Others will play their part in future study or in commercial, industrial, or domestic service. All of these Ways of serving are important. It is not Where you serve but how you serve that will bring the most satisfaction not only to you, but to your home, your school and to your country. My hope for each of you is that you may find health, peace. and happiness in Whatever walk of life you may decide to follow. p Sincerely, Ralph S. Dewey 4
