MESSAGE DU As we look back upon the year now ending, there is more truth than ever to the saying that change is life. We are caught up in the age of Future Shock, in which change itself is a challenge that faces us all. This challenge is one that will affect not only the class of 1973, but all of us here at Le Lycee . We cannot learn change, for we do not know what changes lie in store. What we can do --and what we are doing at Le Lycee-- is to train each of our students to cope with change; to provide each stu- dent with the rational capability to deal with the world on his own terms . The past year has been one of great accomplishment, both for those who are now graduating, and for those who are still striving for aca- demic excellence. The purpose of a yearbook is to record the events and personalities of now. When you leaf through this book in the years ahead, you will recall fondly the many adventures and exper- iences which you shared here at Le Lycee . The end of another school year is another milestone. For all of us, it is the end of one phase of experience while another phase lies ahead, full of challenges and uncertainty. We urge you all to meet those challenges head-on; to apply yourselves to the tasks ahead and to develop fully your own capabilities so that you may take your proper place in society. We are confident, that with diligent appli- cation, there are no limits to your future success. This is also an appropriate time to note our special gratitude to those friends of Le Lycee who have supported the school over the past year. We also thank our many friends who have helped make this yearbook possible through their financial assistance and advertising. These friends have demonstrated their endorsement of Le Lycee. Let us, in turn, support their efforts as well. RAYMOND KABBAZ

Diseours d ' usage a Voccation de la distribution solennelle des prix 1972 Monsieur et Madame Kabbaz, Presidents du Lycee Francais de Los Angeles, ra ' ont invite a prononcer ce jour le diseours d ' usage. J ' ai feuillete mon Littre et j ' ai decouvert qu ' un diseours se dit de tout ce qui est prononce avec une certaine methode et une certaine longueur . Pauvres enfants qui craignez deja de subir le dernier pensum de l ' annee; mais au risque d ' etre desavoue par les admirateurs de Littre, je n ' ai pas trouve de plan et j ' essaierai d ' etre bref. Habituellement dans nos lycees et colleges francais, le diseours d ' usage est impose au plus jeune professeur qui essaie ce jour-la de briller devant les autorites univer- sitaires et administratives . Je ne suis plus jeune, je n ' ai pas de pro- viseur a contenter et mes rapports d ' amitie avec Monsieur le Consul General, qui preside cette ceremonie, ne m ' amenent pas a le considerer comme un Prefet. Mors, si vous le voulez bien, nous allons parler de 1 ' usage. L ' usage, e ' est d ' abord la pratique que l ' anciennete ou la fre- quence rend normal dans une societe donnee. Le diseours d ' usage, e ' est le diseours rendu traditionnel par les coutumes ou les habitudes; il fait partie du ceremonial et de 1 ' etiquette requis dans ces distributions de prix. Et ceci indique qu ' on appartient a une societe qui a des regies; par extension, cela signifie qu ' on a des usages, qu ' on sait observer des regies de bienseance, qu ' on pratique la civilite et les convenances. Aussi, ne devons-nous pas nous etonner si les deux auteurs qui ont le mieux parle des distributions de prix, sont Confucius et Alain qui ont base leur morale sur la pratique des rites et 1 ' observation de la politasse. Et pour rester dans la tradition, comme tout diseours de dis- tribution de prix doit comporter une lecon, je vous dirai simplement, chers enfants, soyez polis pour vivre en societe, pour vivre a la ville disaient les Grecs) et d ' autant plus que la ville est plus grande. Mais l ' usage, e ' est egalement la mise en oeuvre de 1 ' ensemble des elements du langage par la parole; l ' usage, e ' est l ' expression verbale de la pensee.
