,uw gm: 33 zz: 2: ...wa . . ak... jm.ewv'wL W THIS year's Maroon and Black has a purpose quite different from that of its predecessors. Instead of featuring the images and activities of average boys and girls about to as- sume their work in a civilized world, this book will record the images and activities of boys and girls about to assist in the annihilation of brutality and tyranny.

During the terrible days of Bataan, our students remembered the sufferings and sharp defeat at Valley Forge that were but an opening scene to a drama which had its ending in a glorious American triumph.

Our subjects have been designed to pro- duce efficient, patriotic citizensg our extra-curricular activi- ties have supplemented our scholastic makeup with a sense of humor and sportsmanship that is typically American.

To acquaint boys and girls with this inevitable duty before them, is the purpose of this annual. I Page 4 I
