The pictures and stories which make up the Mirror Magazine for this year show the various ways in which Central High School aided the war effort. Time, during school, and also quite a bit of time outside of school, was given by students, teachers, and the administration in order to fulfill assigned tasks. The general atmosphere throughout the school this year was one of willing cooperation in the war effort. Final results from all the activities carried on proved that everyone did more than his share of work. The Mirror Magazine Staff gratefully acknowledges assistance received from Mr. Rex L. Licbenberg in photography, from Miss Post anti the Art classes for the cover design, and from the English department for short stories and poems submitted for publication. m

Central Cooperates . . hriits past yciir in Central has been characterized by I the definite trend toward defense education. Twenty-three organizations participated in this effort. Many classes made adjustments in method and content. Class schedules were changed in order to allow for new courses. Most of the school clubs and organizations chose a definite defense activity to work on during the year. Machine shop courses were opened to a few of the senior boys, who were given good, solid training in tunning factory machinery. A large number of auditorium programs acquainted students with war time •ubjccts. On home room and office bulletin boards van ous defense posters were placed for all to read. The results of the year's work by tltesc different organizations proved to be very successful. livery branch of the armed service is in need of inathc-tnatically trained men.

Hoys and girls who have an aptitude for mathematics and who. by some chance or another, did not include this course in their program, are being encouraged to carry the subject now. It has been said that approximately five years from now the United States will be desperately in need of engineers and physicists. To qualify for either one of these positions one must have as a foundation, a very thorough training in mathematics. During the second semester of this year the history-classes kept up with all the important developments of the war as they occurred. This was done by studying maps and following the moves made by allied anil axis forces. A special study of Australia's people, products, cities, railroads, and military status was made in com-parivin with |apan's. A very important phase of the defense work lay in the machine shop courses. These special courses were started by the War Production Hoard and were run twenty-four hours a day. Most of the boys were placed in jobs upon graduation.
