Lowell High School - Red and White Yearbook (San Francisco, CA)

PRINCIP LS l MESSAGE The Year Book should be a record of the ideals, aims, struggles, and achievements of the school during the year. How far the prevailing fashion in annuals has led to this accomplishment is open to question. The Red and White of the last few years has given a very adequate and faithful record of the athletic and extrafcurricular activities of the school, and these play an important and an integral part in the high school of today. The art work is excellent and enhances greatly the value of the book. It is a graphic picture of the life of the school, but a picture that is not complete and will not be, until fashions in anf nuals change, as all fashions do, and space is found to preserve in the lasting form that the printed page gives some evidence of success in academic fields, in literary endeavor, and in the pursuit of those fundamental cultural values of which Lowell is justly proud. However, as I turned over the pages of past annuals, I began to realize that with all its incompleteness the Red and White is more than an artistic and attractive picture book. There is evidence on every page of goals striven for and won, of growth and development, of character building, and through it all a great loyalty to Lowell and to the principles for which it stands. The thought of loyalty brought to my mind a paragraph that Mr. F. H. Clark, a true scholar and for many years Principal of Lowell, gave to the Student Body for its guidf ance. It was this slightly modified translation of the old Athenian oath: We will never bring disgrace to this, our school, by an act of dishonesty or cowardness, nor ever desert our comrades, we will uphold the ideals and sacred things of the school, both alone and with many, we will revere and obey the city's laws, and do our best to incite a like respect and reverence in others, we will strive unceasingly to quicken the general sense of public duty, and transmit this school greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.
