FOREWORD Our country is at War. This grim realization is in the hearts and minds of all Americans today. With war and its far-reaching implications the watchword for all our thoughts and deeds, it seems only fitting and proper that the theme of our 1942 yearbook should be Courage, Loyalty, Strength, and True Americanism. As graduating seniors, our turn has come to hold high the torch and to carry it proudly as it has been carried by Muskegon Heights High school alumni of the past. We, the youth of America, have been given fhe opportunity of preserving that heritage given us by our fathers. We shall not fail. As true Americans We accept the challenge, we pledge ourselves to defend our native shores. In short, We shall always Keep 'Em Flying. WWW

DEDICATION Yesterday they filled our halls and classrooms, and life for them was carefree and gay. Today they take their places on the far-flung battlefields of free- dom. One day, boys: the next, Defenders of Democ- racy and all that We hold dear. We trust that the ideals they learned here at high school, the fighting spirit with which they were im- bued, and the abilities they acquired will stand them all in good stead when and if that critical mo- ment arrives. To these boys from Muskegon Heights High school who have gone forth into one of the several branches of the armed services of our nation, we respectfully and with heart-felt sincerity dedicate this 1942 vol- ume of The Oaks. God rest you, happy gentlemen, Who laid your good lives down, Who took the khaki and the gun Instead of cap and gown. God bring you to a fairer place Than even Oxford town. from The Spires of Oxford
