AN E FOR EXCELLENCE Guidance director of Oceanside High School is Miss Kinkade, whose counsel and advice have aided many Sailors of our argosy in plotting their courses. It is she who pilots us over the uncertain channels of our high school days so that each of us can receive the most benefit from his educational opportunities. Her influence on our future is even greater. Helping us to avoid future vocational difficulties and to direct our lives into the channels of true citizenship, she is truly one of our argosy. In grateful appreciation of her untiring efforts in charting our lives, we dedicate this book to her. 4

’’The basic purpose of the public schools is to teach people to live in a democracy. —THOMAS JHFfSRSOI. Here from this protected Haven of our Youth we Sailors voyage in one great argosy—mid flying Spindrift—to the realization of our Heritage— The American Way of Life. Guarded and guided, inspired and counseled, we daily come to a fuller accomplishment of our Manhood. Through all the years that we spend in this voyage, each class, each activity, each game of our school life brings us nearer to the realization of this heritage. This yearbook reviews many phases of this transition voyage, and seeks to make apparent to all who read how able and effective are the pilots who navigate these, our individual craft, and how surely do we progress in Nobleness of Spirit, in Strength of Mind, in Soundness of Body.

TO THE STUDENTS OF 0. H. S.: In this war-torn world of today, we all need Guidance. We need to be helped to understand ourselves--our assets and our liabilities—so that we may find our proper places in American life. No one wants to be a square peg in a round hole. We can all play some part in National Defense. Some of us will be in the Army, the Navy or the Marines. Still others will work in Defense Industries while the rest of us will have some part in Civilian Defense. Cur first job is to win this war. However, with this done each one of us must find some definite place in our nation. Only a few will be retained in the Army, Navy, Marines or in these various Defense Industries. We must look ahead so that we will have some place to fill when peace comes. We must follow our President's advice for he says that we, the youth of today, must continue our education looking forward to the day when the war is over and we are the people who must carry on the government and the business of the U. S. A. Sincerely 5
