MISNER Commercial E D I T O R I A L Olympiads, iirst held in ancient Greece and then revived for our modern civilizaf tion, have always held the sporting spotlight. More than this, they have contributed materially to world friendship, as well as encouraging healthful sports. The present youth of Los Angeles, ever since it was old enough to understand the importance of the contests, has watched the progress of the Olympics with everf increasing interest. Now, at a time when the Olympic Games would hold our attenf tion more than ever before, they come to our own city! Fremont has had its part in contributing athletes for c.ompetition in these games. One of our former students has already participated in the IX Olympiad at Amf sterdam, and perhaps more than one Fremont track star will be entered in the X Olympiad at Los Angeles. The preparation of this city for the crowds which will flood it next year calls for the cooperation of every citizen and resident. The young people of the city must form a nucleus for the organization of a civic' spirit and pride. In a smaller way we have formed such a spirit at Fremont. Having the best spirit of any school, we must therefore work harder to make Los Angeles Olympicfconscious. We must apply the principle we have learned at school, we must convince every citizen that his cooperf ation is necessary for Los Angeles' success as the scene of the games. This is the task for Pathfinders who have just learned to have a part in school spirit. It is only fitting, then, that we at Fremont acknowledge the games, the most conf vincing proof of our interest is this, the 1931 Fremontian, which we dedicate to the Olympic games. In presenting this number to the school, the annual staff desires that it be a product of the school. Regardless of the staffs efficiency, without the cooperation between student administrators and faculty members this Fremontian could never have been created. However, cooperation was heartily given, and every member of the staff has labored to make this book worthy of being Fremontis tribute to the X Olympiad.
