MAYNARD PHILLIPS TY SALUTATORY T is with great pride and plc. that we, the Class of 1942, welcome - our parents and friends. After four sl. years of hard work and good times we Fino ourselves sitting here before you as the grad- uating class. Tonight we are going to give you, not essays or research themes, but short stories about the sacrifices, achievements, and every- day living of a few of the just ordinary people in our America. These might very well be true. Perhaps they are pictures of some thing that has already happened some- where. In presenting this program we wish to extend our thanks to Daphne du Maurier, the author of that little book-of-the-hour, Come Wind, Come Weather. This book is a collection of short sketches-the Eng- lish mother who triumphs over bereavement, the miner who settled labor disputes at the pithead, the London merchant who brought about cooperation among his competitors- all these were people who were able to turn the difficulties of war time into opportuni- ties to spread a spirit of victory on the Eng- lish Home Front. In her message to American readers, Miss du Maurier says: In your country there are many replicas of the men and women in this little book. You will find them in your town, in your street, possibly in your own house. They will be among the pio- neers of the new America that you are going to build-an America whose claim to the proud name 'United States ' will have new meaning and purpose for the world and whose gay Hag, bright with stars, will not only be a true symbol of your own unity, but will point a finger of faith to heaven itselffi It is with thoughts of this message that we present an American adaptation of Come Wind, Come Weatherf' First we shall picture for you the news- paper reporter and correspondent, who ig- nores an opportunity for personal achieve- ment and recognition by postponing his scoop until it can do no harm to the people irw 'ved and no good to enemy agents. hen there is the test pilot who daily risks his life with the characteristic daring and nonchalance of Americans that our air forces may be superior. Next comes the story of the decoder, whose job is so vital to us that we could comprehend just how vital only if we were to suddenly lose all of these men. Next, a farmer, whose life work of rais- ing food, grows out of the humdrum of ordi- nary routine to an entirely new and exciting occupation. Lastly, there is the fireman of the humble oil tanker, who though he may be obscured from public praise, is just as important as the officer in gold braid. All of this program, excepting only the Address to Undergraduates, is our own con- ception of the everyday people behind the lines who are backing our armed forces to the limit. Halligan - ACE NEWS-HAWK Iack I-Ialligan, Philippine correspondent for the United Press, turned from his port- able typewriter with a half regretful sigh, ripping to shreds the sheaf of papers that he had just completed. It would have been a swell scoop,', was the thought that lingered
