EXCELSIOR World War ll came suddenly to the United States. Here at Excelsior, sit- ting together in a hastily convened assembly on December 8, we heard the President formally declare war with our attackers. Air raid drills, black- outs, and a real night raid forcibly im- pressed the reality of a formerly far- off, impersonal war. A few students joined the armed forces, and several faculty members were drafted. The great majority of us, however, did our bit on the home front, in any way that we could. Everyone participated in an energetic wastepaper saving campaign, and some boys, interested in helping, operated an F.F.A. built baler after school. The Boys' League put on a National Bond Dance, with war stamps for ad- mission, and raised S75 in bonds for the Red Cross. Classes also bought bonds for the school. Excelsior participated in nation-wide model airplane building, for Army training use. Faculty members have weird mem- ories of incendiary bomb practice and first aid training classes, As the annual goes to press, plans are underway for a Service Flag, to represent all of the Excelsior alumni, faculty, and students who are serving their country in uniform. TOP: Girls from gym class scramble for cover in the auditorium as the air raid siren sounds. More of air raid. Students stream across the campus to their stations. Faculty and student fire-wardens learned how to nut out incendiary bombs. Familiar nuclei of our save-waste-paper camnaign. Fellows in the wood shou disvlay some Excelsior-made stretchers.
