' Deliver Us As God looks down upon our town today, He sees a loneliness about the square, For many a boy he once saw here, has left, To join a host of others over there. He sees today, as yesterday He saw, The changes that are wrought in towns, by war. For Norwood ' s spirit stressing freedom ' s worth, Encompasses the corners of the earth. In oceans, jungles, foxholes, everywhere God looks — He finds a bit of Norwood there — Portrayed by boys who not so long ago, Walked down these very corridors ive know. Joined in a true companionship — The mirth of high school days, Initialed books — traditions made. In countless different ways. They left their mark within these walls to stay. Now we would in our Tiot, tribute pay, To you who sail the seas and search the sky — You graduates of Norwood High who march and fight. A simple tribute — as to God ive send Our prayers — that soon the present war will end — Letting a blessed, lasting peace descend Upon a tvorld that ' s missed the little things Too long. We pray That youth, with all the life and joy it brings To towns — in triumph may return. We pray That Norwood will come back again to stay. S. B.

The class of ' 45 is indebted to the faculty, which for three years has so nobly labored to further knowledge among us. Our trails with the homework they had to offer us, were only exceeded by the constant disappointments they received the next day upon finding that it was still undone. With gratitude in our hearts we thank them for the many nights that they denied themselves of sleep, thinking up questions to ask the next day. Even more to be ap- preciated are the hours they spent correcting the ingenious quizzes they devised. Now that the terrors which their efforts incurred are over for us, we can very well understand their viewpoint. We like to feel that their work has not been fruitless, and hope that they shate this opinion. Our three years relationship with them has enlightened us, not only scholastically, but socially as well. Their friendly counsel and cooperation with us in our activities will always leave pleasant memories.
