Foreword THE predominant planning for a secure and just world of tomorrow calls for cooperation and harmony among all people desirous of a lasting peace. In the face of overwhelming problems, today's youth will have to possess the qualities of determination, righteousness, and foresight in the completion of the civilized world's dreams-a world founded on democratic principles of liberty and equality, and composed of a cooperative family of nations settling all affairs arbitrarily. To attain these dreams, youth must overcome all detriments t.o progress-recur- ring wars, and the barriers tending to promote enmity among social. racial, and religious groups. As members of t.his progressive multitude, American youth will have a vital part in developing and fulfilling these designs of universal soli- darity. Tomorrow's leaders must be capable of endurance in righteous- ness and aptitude in reconstruction-endurance in righteousness to prevent outbreaks of tyranny and hatred, aptitude in reconstruction to promote a new era of prosperity. For a tomorrow of greater progress and security, Lackawanna High School is contributing to the vast army of youth a confident, well- trained graduating class determined to play an active part in attaining a victory and in contributing to future progress. In theilirfipehdiiig criticail period of the world's return to normalcy, y0uth's successful endeavors will be directly attributed to the scope of their educational background. The brief histories of school life, fondly remembered by all students and depicted within this publication, will serve both as a monument to their diligent efforts at school and as an inspiration during the tense days of momentous decisions in the post-war era. 3
