afaaa olfiifo ry fdonfmafdj Full Speed Ahead, ,40-,41 Returning as full-fledged pilots, after having proved ourselves capable of continuing the course, we were ready to study the principles involved in a successful landing. Squadron leaders were given the controls in order to help guide our craft to its hangar. These standard-bearers were: President, Donald Cushing, Vice President, Clement Lemire, Secretary, Margaret Mead, and Treasurer, jean Bushman. The traditional Junior Prom which was held in May proved to be an im- mense success. We left our Junior year after having made up our minds to soar higher and to make better efforts in our studies. Yes, we were joyously happy as we walked down the field, knowing we had obtained our goal--at last we were to be Seniors! Happy Landings, '41-'42 Now, as advanced pilots, we were ready to face the all-important prob- lems concerning our future. We immediately prepared to direct a straight course for our squadron by electing our superior officers. The results of this election were as follows: President, Donald Cushing, Vice President, Clement Lemireg Treasurer, Joseph Bonk, and Secretary, Jean Bushman. During the month of December, we were privileged to invite our parents to a banquet which we held in their honor. This social event certainly will remain uppermost in our hearts throughout our lives. NVe soared higher and higher in serious hopes of obtaining a record-break- ing altitude. Yes, the controls were set full-speed ahead for graduation. The Year Book Staff was selected and various other committees, having both direct and indirect bearing on graduation activities, were appointed. The crowded weeks which ensued crept into months and before we realized it, the inspiring month of June was upon us. Yes, the thing we had been training for during the past four years had come--we were to be honor- ably discharged from the service. After receiving our diplomas on the night of graduation, many tears were shed for all realized that after this evening each was to go his own way. Four years of glorious friendship are behind us. Now, each graduated pilot is free to take 'complete control of his own craft and travel the elevated highways in search of new horizons! -THE END-

Cffass :Visio 'cy by ARLINE ROACH JEAN BUSHMAN We will endeavor to portray the record of the flying class of nineteen hundred forty-two, a history which completely covers the time between the take-off in nineteen hundred thirty-eight and the landing in nineteen hundred forty-two. Learning the Fundamental Principles, '38-'39 In September, nineteen hundred thirty-eight, approximately one hundred twenty-seven unskilled but willing-to-learn pilots were drafted into the realms of the Freshman year. This F orty-Second Squadron, as We were sometimes referred to, began its long and tedious training period of four years. The out- standing members of this squadron were soon selected and were ushered cere- moniously into their respective positions. They were as follows: Mayor, Donald Cushingg City Clerk, lean Bushman, and Treasurer, Sophie Barry. Probably the most outstanding events in our first year of apprenticeship were our graduation and the unforgettable class trip to Newfound Lake. This first year of ground training enabled us to acquire the fundamentals of flying and most of us were anticipating the approaching take-off. Our First H op, '39-,40 After a glorious leave of absence, the majority of the cadets returned to their field of instruction. Here we were initiated by the upper classmen. This social event will be forever prolonged in our memories. Again the presiding officers of the F orty-Second Squadron were given sealed instructions as to the course our flight would take. These oflicers were the following: President, Clement Lemire, Vice President, Donald Cushing, Secretary, jean Bushmang and Treasurer, Sophie Barry. Orders were then issued in regard to a transfer. Our Work would now be carried on in a building from which was to emerge inspiration for all. This was without question the highest altitude reached thus far by the energetic Class of ,42.
