FIELD GENERAL Mr. While To the Students of Mark Keppel High School: The Summer Class of 1943 will be the fourth War Class to graduate from Mark Keppel. No one knows how much longer the war will last, but it seems probable that we are at least half way through it. Therefore, for most of our graduates, the war will be a relatively brief and unusual experience from which I sincerely hope will come a deep interest in world affairs and a conviction that this sort of thing must not happen again. When the war is over, the present and recent graduates will still be young and they will return to the normal interests and desires of all young men and women — furthering their education in trade school and college; building for success in business, trade, and profession; establishing homes; participating in government; cultivating life-long friend- ships. May the Victory you help to win insure your happiness and success in these activities. Good luck for Today and Tomorrow. T( let old aw Lawrence B. White. [20 1
