26 Our HopeeAmerico, you are thoteour hope for a decent world, a free world, a Christian world. We love you, and in these your hours of peril, we want most desperately to serve you. We cannot shoulder arms or man the production line, but we can render valuable aid to you by equip- ping ourselves spiritually, physically, and mentally for the vast tasks that lie ahead. We must broaden our minds and strengthen our wills and we have done this through the Student Council which trains us in obedience as well as leadership. We have fought the bottle of the present by buying War Bonds and Stamps and by turning in rubber and scrap. We have striven to mold God-feoring scientists of the future through the Science clubs; and we have strengthened our bodies through the Athletic Association. Through our newspaper The Tower green journalists become gentlemen of the press, a press which one day, please God, we may thoroughly Christianize; through the Tower Memories our annual, we learn the fruits of co-opero- tion, industry and initiative, vitol elements in post-war peace. Under the standards of the Mosque cmd Govel and Quill and Scroll we have explored worlds of learning. But never fear that we have forgotten that recreation, good times and laughs are necessary for America's defenders, too. Our proms, our dances, parties, dramatic clubs, glee clubs, all provide the niceties and culture of everyday life. We cannot fail you America, for our Catholic faith. We will not fail youeyou are our hope!
