X Ju-J DEDICATION Although the 1946 Icarian is once again a peacertime publication, we cannot easily forget the preceding years of war which brought death and sadness into many of our homes. Those years, bitter with the struggle for the freedom of all men, left a mark of grief and emptinessg but, too, they left us with a will and de- termination that such strife need never be experienced again. Wfe owe this undefeatable spirit to the sixteen Gold Star Boys from Gage Park, and to all those who gave the last full measure that we might live to win the peace. They went into battle fully aware of the possibility of death, yet did not turn back. They did not cast off the duties and re- sponsibilities placed on their strong, young shoulders. They marched on- ward with no concern for themselves. They only knew what must be done for their families and friends back home. Y With the example of these un- seliish boys in our hearts, we pledge ourselves to the peace and welfare of all mankindg and in their memory, we dedicate our 1946 Icarian.

TORCH OF FREEDOM Behold the torch of freedom, symbolizing the ideals, hopes, and aspirations for which a global war has been fought. Although the war is won, our efforts to keep the flame aglow must remain constant. lt is necessary that we succeed in our attempts so that the rays which shine from our torch can lead all men to a new, safe, and happy world. Representing the future citizens of a rapidly advancing America, it is our duty, through knowledge, education, and perseverance, to keep the toreh aflame. Only hy overcoming prejudice, intolerance, and ignorance of our fellowmen can we ever hope to make the world a better place in which to live. l'Ve, therefore, have adopted the toreh of freedom as our theme for the 1946 Irarian, knowing that what it represents will guide all mankind toward a goal of everlasting peace.
