To the Bonneville Dam, heralding a new era for Oregon and the Pacific Northwest, we, the January class of 1936, dedicate this, our Almanac. Power-n1ankind's driving force through countless ages, from the blackness of early life to the glowing brilliance of the modern twentieth century-is the vital spark of the tremendous Bonneville project. Chain- ing the hitherto uncontrollable liquid lightning of the Columbia through Bonneville marks for the Pacific Northwest the threshold of a future unthought of even a decade ago. The mighty river, draining a vast, fertile empire of 240,000 square miles, has torn the heart of the Cas- cades asunder and wrested for itself a wondrous gorge over which broods majestic Mt. Hood. What challenge of conquest the river must have offered to struggling pioneers! What threat of the unconquerablel Yet, within a century the challenge has been answered and the proud river harnessed by pigmy man. The dam is a man-made wonder set in nature's handiwork, whose marvels have made the Columbia River Highway famous. Almost immeasurable power will be ready to do mankind's bidding in the spacious Northwest when the Bonneville Dani is completed. Few ofthe lethargic inhabitants of the valley realize the vast future open to the relatively undeveloped Pacific Northwest: the increased rail ac- tivity, the deep sea transportation on the river, the hosts of new indus- tries and the inevitable increase in population. To us, to the coming generation, falls the direction of this force into the channels of proper development in order to bring sudden and lucrative results. For our mammoth task we shall need the guidance of knowledge, the value of experience and the help of God. -By Eileen Garnett lDlElDlCATll0N 12,
