ASSISTANT PRINCIPALS Years from now you will gather in groups and will relive days at “good old Lane.” Episodes will return to your memory, foot¬ ball games will be reviewed, teachers will be analyzed, grades will be argued and many events of different character will come up for discussion. As you debate, argue and ponder you will come to conclusions. What will they be? Peculiar as it may seem to you now, some one in the class will say: “In that class and with that teacher we had to do the job right.” You will all agree that this was the one thing that paid a dividend. You may end your philosophical sur¬ vey when one of the group will say: “You all remember Bob and Cal. They were certainly square shooters and fellows worth having as friends.” The above are just a few side lights from an “old timer,” who, like you, spent many happy days in high school. Furthermore, what does it all prove? The philosophy, as old as the pyramids of Egypt, holds truenamely, honesty of character and honesty of work are the virtues of civilization. To the Graduates of January 1945 Four years have passed since your graduation from elemen¬ tary school and you, who have made use of the opportunities that Chicago has provided in this outstanding institution, have achieved the privlege of graduation once again. You have not completed your education. You must continue that you may be better prepared to solve the problems of life and that you may accomplish the goal you have set for your¬ selves. I sincerely wish for you a future which will bring you joy and prosperity. Always remember whatever you do; and wherever you go to be faithful to the principles under which you have been trained so that honor only will be showered upon you and upon your school. A. P. O’Mara

Here is a permanent record in picture form of our friends and associates in the Senior Class. Today the names and faces are vivid; in later years these paqes will become more helpful as a reminder of the fellows we knew and worked with in the classrooms, laboratories and shops at Lane. Conditions and surroundinqs will bring many changes. Here is the record of today.
