IH HPPHECIHTIUH CO YOU, lVlr. Burke, we dedicate the 1940 edition of the Olympiad. Because you have unfailingly served Olympia high school since you first entered as an instructor in biology eighteen years ago, we feel that we may be able to repay you in some measure for the undivided interest and kindly supervision you have displayed in your long career with us. TUDENTS have beseeched you for scientific knowledge, and you have faithfully responded until you now instruct five classes of biology daily. They have repeatedly turned to you, as a veteran in your Held, for a better understanding of the natural world, and you gave them the Natural History club through which to enjoy the study of nature. Your name stands for ideals and aspiration in lifeg we are proud to have you on our faculty as a staunch reminder of the way to right living. Because you have so patiently and so well fulfilled your many tasks, as an instructor and adviser, we in turn, endeavoring to show our appreciation, dedicate to you our l94O Wings For the World edition of the Olympiad.

F012 KYBOUND . . . the trail-blazers of tomorrow carve new paths across the blind- ing panorama of a new dawn. Adventure beating in the red blood of a million young hearts as gleaming silver ships send shadows over dwarfed cities, mountains and river valleys. Old visions discarded for a single dream, long-sought through centuries, discovered by today's children, omnipresent in their ambitions, hopes and ideals. To press onward, forwarding progress by piercing tapering wing tips through sunlight and shadow. The lure of conquest biting at their souls, urging them toward a triumphant goal. Answering the supreme challenge of the airways, they choose to awaken the world. New aspirations, eyes against the stars, and the inspired youth of America eager to test new wings. The l940 Olympiad has chosen as its theme Wings For the World. Fitting, because it represents youth ascending the skyline, penetrating the far corners of the universe, shattering the clouds of uncertainty. Great strength in these wings which know no bounds, forever looking toward the zenith of their destination. w.53 m6: m,'.:mm , ' , H , A 'ilwwfkfi 7 I Y, ,Q h .J .ak 1. - t .wk Vw,-' s.
