EFI' M FOREWORD E, THE STAFF, present to you the Granby 1943, in the hope that it will picture lor you a changing Granby, a school which is facing not only the problems ofa chaotic and war-torn world, but lilcewise those ol a world in which there must be the establishment of a just and lasting peace. Our trust is that this volume will also record the everyday occurrences which are so much a part of our school. We have chosen lor our theme a poem from one who lifted his eyes unto the hills and far horizons, a poem which we leel is a message from an American youth to American youth all over the country. Expressive ol the spirit of youth today, it seems to embrace and reflect ideals which have always been an integral part ol Granby l-ligh School. HIGH FLIGHT H Oh! l have slipped the surly bonds of Earth find danced the slcies on laughter-silvered wings, Sunward l've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth Of sun-split clouds,-and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of-wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. l'lov'ring there, live chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air . Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue l've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace, Where never lark, or even eagle flew- flnd, while with silent, lifting mind l've trod The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand and touched the face of God. John Gillespie Magee, Jr.
