MESS XCES PRINCIPAL ' S MESSAGE My Dear Young Friends: The classes of ' 23 sang the praises of the pioneers of California, and of the founders and builders of the Los Angeles High School. You, the class of Winter ' 24, have essayed the pleasant but difficult task of throw- ing upon the screen a vision of the school that is to be. Living in a time of feverish activity, our school can not rest upon the laurels won by former students, or it will be left behind by new and vigorous high schools springing into existence around us. Yours it is to remind those whom you leave in charge of the school ' s reputation that they must keep in touch with all lines of modern pro- gress. Vital contact with the forces of the civilization of today through the students who wall now carry on the life of the school is imperative if the school is to grow better and greater in the years to come. Your mission as shown in this Semi-Annual is rightly to show that our young people can and will disprove all pessimistic prophecies that the world is headed toward social and political chaos. The Los Angeles High School has a splendid heritage, not the least of which is the blood of men and women of high character and ideals. As you return from year to year you need not fear to find retrogression, or decay of the principles that have made our school a potent force for good in this community. I congratulate you upon the excellent records you have made while you were citizens of Los Angeles High School, and compliment you upon the excellence of your Semi-Annual. W. H. HOUSH.
