Orleans High School Senior Year Book 1945 ORLEANS, VERMONT Class 'Poem At the end of four years, we leave O. H. S., With diplomas in hand, a step to success. And as we strive on toward the goals we have set, We’ll look back on these years that we’ll never forget. That night full of horror in our Freshman year, When the Sophomores planned stunts that filled us with fear, Was more than rewarded on a year from that night, For we were the ones to cause all the fright. The next year, as Juniors, we carefully planned A prom which we hoped would really be grand. Decorations of Mexico lightened each wall As the orchestra’s notes filled the whole hall. In each of these classes we’ve had lots of fun But none can compare with our fourth and last one. Each day we’ll remember our grand Senior year And cherish each memory we will always hold dear. Class Motto: Class Flower: Class Colors: Out of the harbor, into deep channels. Red rose. Blue and silver. PAGE THHEE From Our Principal To the Class of 1945: Congratulations to you who have reached the end of your high school years and so have assured yourselves of a good beginning in life. Many of the forty-one who started along the path with you back in September, 1941 have fallen by the wayside, some for very good reasons and some because they lacked the vision to see beyond the immediate present. I know there have been minor irritations and disappointments at times but I hope you’ll be able to look back to these years at Orleans High School as happy years. Even though you worked hard at times I’m sure you enjoyed most of it. You’ll al- ways remember certain events, certain friends, certain classes, and perhaps a littleknowledge you have gain- ed. As an indi- vidual I’m sure I shall remem- ber the Seniors next fall when quality, not quantity counts, school will always be interested in hearing from you and hope you’ll keep in contact with us enough so we can follow your progress as the years roll on. Good luck! I start trying to build a new girls’ basketball team with only five vacancies out of six posi- tions. Your class has done well in girls’ athletics. Perhaps you will be remem- bered too as the class with so few boys. Un- less my mem- ory is faulty there has not been as small a Graduating Class in fifteen years. You can, however, take refuge in the old saying about how I can and do assure you that the PRINCIPAL ROLFE W. SCHOPPE Most sincerely yours, Rolfe W. Schoppe. PAGE FOUR From Our Sponsor Dear Seniors: For you I’ve always had a very special feeling because when I came to Orleans as a beginning teacher you were also beginning, mere lonely and unimportant freshmen. I didn’t see very much of you that first year. Some of you I didn’t even know; in fact I became acquainted only with the braver souls who took Latin I with me. The next year, though, I knew all of you when we made life miserable for each other in English class. As your sponsor during former presi- dent and belov- ed classmate, Bucket” Hil- liard. And yet, though the war has come close to us, and some of our members have already enlisted in the Navy and are awaiting their call, we have had good times together. While all of you at times have exasperat- ed me almost beyond endur- ance, you have a 1 1 been so sweet I could hardly refrain from telling your junior year, I began to see a 11 of you at your best, during the five-minute pe- riod, working on the one-act play or getting ready for Prom and helping the seniors grad- uate. This last year has been the best one though. In many ways it has not been an easy one, and some of have had ELIZABETH B. DAVIES you to grow up too fast. Sorrow struck all of us very keenly in the loss of our you so. Sometimes you’d be surprised to know what your teacher is thinking about each one of you when you are supposedly busy studying or concentrating on a test. She doesn’t always wonder whether you are chewing gum or decide that if you do that just once more she’ll send you to the office! Sometimes she is thinking how young you are, and how vulnerable, and still how responsible you can be and what good judgment you have underneath your surface coat of joking and silliness. PAGE FIVE I know that as a class and as individuals you have many times felt defeated and a bit inferior. You need not feel that way. You have courage; you really know, whether you admit it yourselves or not, what is right, and if you will be truly honest and brave enough to do what you know is right, you will never be inferior to anyone. You have chosen as your motto, Out of the harbor into deep channels.’’ Those channels will be deep, and dark and possibly treacherous. However, every good sailor knows that a deep channel is much safer for his ship than a shallow one. Rivers and water- ways are marked to help the navigator find the deep channel and keep him from crashing on the rocks and shoals. The channel of your life will be marked not quite in the same way, but your course will be charted; make sure you know how to read the markers and follow the chart. Y ou are beginning your life in a difficult world. Some of you will not really be beginning your lives until you have performed a necessary and patriotic duty. You all will be helping to make the world a little less difficult for those who come after you. I, as your teacher and your friend, sincerely wish you all suc- cess and happiness, and smooth sailing as you go forth into the channels. Elizabeth Davies. PAGI? SIX 3n Jfflemoriam It was with pride that two years ago we hung a service flag in our home room window for two of the members of our class—the first class to lose two of its members to the armed forces before grad- uation. With mingled feelings of sadness and pride we took down this service flag with the two blue stars last February, because one of those blue stars had changed to gold. Staff Sergeant Marvin Hilliard, more familiarly known to his classmates as Bucket,” was sworn into the Army of the United States on December 15, 1943. He received his basic training at Camp Blanding, Florida, ca to Fort Meade, Md. In July last year he was shipped to Eu- rope in the 359th Infantry Regiment, 90th Division of the Third Army, as a private. He was pro- moted to private first class in September, 1 9 4 4. In October he participated in the battle of Metz, France, which was one of the major battles of this war. From private first class, Bucket was home for a short fui Staff Sergeant MARVIN HILLIARD lough, and returned raised to a staff ser- geant sometime be- tween December 15 and January 1. The jump from private to staff sergeant has been left unexplain- ed by either Bucket or the Army, but we can surely conclude this indicated a qual- ity of leadership needed by his outfit. On January 16, 1945, Staff Sergeant Marvin Hilliard gave the supreme sacrifice for his country dur- ing the Battle of the Bulge in Belgium. News of his death and the Purple Heart, along with a letter of commendation for bravery from his commanding officer, reached his parents in February. Memorial services were held in his honor on February 25 at the Congregational church in Orleans. We, the class of 1945, will always remember the meritorious conduct of Bucket as a soldier, and as each of us graduate from high school this year, we will strive, with him as our example, to fulfill in the best possible way our part in bringing a lasting peace to the world—the peace for which Marvin Hilliard died.

This first year was comparatively easy under the able leadership of Miss Dorothy Porter. During our second year of this journey we changed sponsors to Miss Irene Butler who was very capable of supervising us and upon resuming our journey on the third year, we found ourselves again under her supervision. Under the leadership of Miss Thelma Stearns, we passed our fourth year with only a few mishaps and coasted along into our fifth year under the direction of Miss Ila Marshall. This year proved to be one of the best in our graded school career and it was here that we started our sports competition with other classes. Our sixth year is one that should not be forgotten, not because we were leaving the graded school, but because Miss Mildred Hay was often treating us with chocolate bars. We entered graded school with twenty-five members and we are leaving with twenty-eight. Under the friendly guidance of Miss Eola Goodrich in our first year of Junior High, we soon became accustomed to the ways of O. H. S. and during our eighth year we were under the sponsor- ship of Miss Helen Reed. It was this year that we won the Junior High Basketball Tourney and put on the puppet show called Pin- occhio.” In the fall of 1941, forty-one freshmen started their high school careers under Coach” Barton. This was the year that the out-of- town students had a tough time getting accustomed to our ways. Freshmen Reception was survived and we settled down for the year which passed with few mishaps. Miss Greta Rowe took us on the tenth mile of our journey and after a difficult task we successfully carried out a one-act play. We remember this year as the last one our Charleston classmates were with us due to the absence of a school bus the following year. We changed sponsors for a final time in our junior year and although our class had shrunk a great deal, we successfully carried out the Junior Prom. It was during this year that we lost Morris Leach and Marvin Hilliard to the armed forces, bcth of whom shall not be forgotten. Now we come to our last and most important year. Out of a Freshman class of forty-one, only twenty-one are graduating and PAGE TWENTY.ONE out of the original twenty-five that started in graded school there remain only eight. They are Madeline Davis, Cynthia Gray, Jac- quelyn Turnbull, Phyllis Decker, Evelyn Barney, Raymond Boulan- ger, Warren Hilliard and Carl Stevens. We wish everyone and especially those entering the armed forces, and also our sponsor, Mrs. Davies, all the luck in the world and hope that she enjoyed us as much as we enjoyed her. A Look Into the Future EVELYN BARNEY: Evelyn is now running a dress shop after being graduated from Lasell College. Drop into her Ever Wear” shop for clothes that fit. RAYMOND BOULANGER: Raymond joined the Navy in the year 1945, and after reaching the peak in a naval career, he retired to his farm in Coventry Swamp which was left to him by John Keeler, his former employer. GERTRUDE BROOME: Gertrude was under the influence of the Home Ec. while in O. H. S. and is now taking the part of the better half on a large farm in Wyoming, while her children run around the house. MARION CORROW: Marion carried out her plans of becoming a secretary. She is now employed as private secretary to Carl Stevens, president of the Mudson Car Company in Detroit, and we hear that she likes her position very much. MADELINE DAVIS: Madeline, soon after graduation, went to work for Pratt QC Whitney, in Hartford. Deciding that she would like a more interesting career, she became the wife of Dean Wheeler, and they now have a happy little family. ELAINE DEAN: After leaving O. H. S. Elaine obtained the position as typist at Bray’s Wood Heel Factory, and after a few years was the second member of our class to retire on a farm in Coventry Swamp. PHYLLIS DECKER: Phyl became a registered nurse at New Hampshire Memorial Hospital in 1949, and after being Superintendent of Nurses at Brightlook Hospital, she became the wife of a country doctor. PAGE TWENTY-TWO CHARLOTTE DEWING: Charlotte accompanied Madeline to Pratt Whitney where she became acquainted with Willie the welder, and she now lives in a spacious trailer outside the factory gates. CYNTHIA GRAY: Cynthia attended Middlebury College, and is now teaching English at O. H. S. On the sideline, she is a publicity agent for Graylawn Products. WARREN HILLIARD: After studying music very hard under Miss Hopkins in O. H. S., Wog is now the leading trombonist in the Downbeats, a well- known Vermont orchestra. BEVERLY HUSSEY: Beverly is very happy in her present position which is keeping house and carrying dinners daily to the foreman of the cedar oil still. HATTIE KAHLSTROM: A familiar sight on the Brownington road every day is Hattie driving to Orleans to buy groceries. We can imagine her as a busy little housewife, scurrying about her farm in Brownington. JULIUS MUER: Julie is really in the chips! He is now sole owner of Muer’s Casino in Reno. Girls, drop in with your third husband and lose your first husband’s money. ERNEST PERRY: This little blonde, curly-headed senior went out into the big cruel world searching for a wife. After traveling around the world tirelessly searching for someone to suit him, he finally decided there is no place like home. CLYDE PLACE: Clyde’s possibilities for using the knife were discovered early in his childhood. Therefore, after his graduation, he decided to take a course in slaughtering from Joe Boulanger, and believe it or not, he now has his own meat market. DORIS SIMPSON: After her graduation from O. H. S., Doris decided that it was her patriotic duty to join the WACS. She reached the honorable position of corporal, and became known all over the United States for her worthy disciplinary feats. After the war, she returned to Or- leans to take over the defense company, thus relieving Mr. Schoppe of his strenuous duties. PAGE TWENTY-THREE ARVILLA SMITH: With her diploma in one hand and her shorthand book in another, Billie started on her secretarial career. She has been ad- vanced to private secretary to Henry Kaiser. A little birdie told us that she is going to resign soon to become the wife of a high school sweetheart. EDWARD SMITH: Eddie joined the Navy along with the other boys of our class, and certainly didn’t fail the reputation of the Navy of having a girl in every port. After the war, he decided to establish his residence in Hollywood where he is now private secretary to Lana Turner. CARL STEVENS: After tramping for a couple of years in the infantry, Carl then motored to Detroit where he set up a small business of repairing Model T’s. Carl, who lets no grass grow under his feet, built this business up into what is now known as the famous Mudson Car Company. JACKIE TURNBULL: The favorite Pin-up” girl of the senior class of '45 exercised her beautiful limbs by hitch-hiking to Hollywood where she came under the impression of a leg artist. She now has a well established business in downtown Hollywood where she paints girls’ legs for a dollar. ANN WIGHTMAN After receiving her diploma, Ann journeyed to sunny Cali- fornia and established her residence in Hollywood where she was soon discovered by a talent scout. Be sure and see her latest pic- ture, Heavens, and All This Too,” co-starring with Jon Vanson.

PAGE TWENTY-FIVE Salutatory RACES OF MANKIND For the class of nineteen forty-five, I wish to welcome you to our commencement exercises here tonight. We greatly appreciate the interest you have shown in making possible for us an education and a good start in life. We are very glad to be able to live in America where education is promoted to the highest extent by peo- ple who, like you in this community, have taken a very keen interest in our education from the first grade up to graduation. I am going to talk tonight on the subject of Races of Mankind.” As we go out into the world, we will meet many difficult prob- lems. One of them could well be the racial problem. Forty-eight nations are now united in a common cause—victory over Axis aggression. This is the greatest fighting alliance in history. White men, yellow men, black men, and red men are all fighting together against one enemy. Th is war has shown that the whole world has been made one neighborhood. All races of man are shoulder to shoulder. This is not as new to Americans as it is to other nations because there have always been people of different color, hair texture, and head shape since the founding of our nation. History today is only bringing together on a world scale races which have been brought together on a smaller scale here in America. We know better than most people the hard feeling there can be when people of different races and nationalities have to live together. In many cases there is conflict. Today winning the war is the most important thing and if we all pull together, whatever our origin, we shall obtain final victory. Hitl er has believed that we are wrong, that he could divide and conquer,” that America was a no man’s land, where peoples of all origin were ready to fight among themselves. On the war front, we have needed fuels, substitutes for rubber, lighter metals, or new plastics. We have asked scientists what they can do about it. We a'so need these scientists on the race front. Through scientific research, we have learned that all peoples of the earth are a single family and have a common origin. The early man started out with crude tools, without agriculture and domesticated animals except the dog, and, in spite of this, he spread to all corners of the globe. One theory is that those who settled nearer the equator developed a darker skin color than those who settled to the north of them. PAGE TWENTY.SIX Race prejudice turns on the point of inferiority and superiority. One who is race prejudiced says of a man of another race, No matter who he is, I don’t have to compare myself with him. I’m superior anyway. I was born that way.” In order to see which of the two objects is superior, you have to test the abilities of both objects. The first thing we want to know is what traits a man is born with. If he is lucky, he will have good food, care, education and a good start in life. A man cannot say that these were things he was born with. If a person were born in France but brought up in China, he would speak Chinese. He wasn’t born to speak French. He speaks the way people around him speak. This is not a racial trait but is due to the person’s environment. The different customs among peoples of the world are not racial traits. To marry in church after a courtship or to marry a bride that you have never seen are customs due to environment. One race is not born to build skyscrapers and do the plumbing in their houses and another to build huts and carry their water from rivers. These are examples of ways of doing things which are brought about by usage instead of heredity. A man of one race would be the same as a man of another race if he had had the same environment. In America, there have been many investigations into the intel- ligence of negroes and whites. The scientists have found that some of the degree of intelligence of a person depends upon what happens to him after he is born. There are several proofs of this. Here is one. In the first World War, the American Expeditionary Forces were given intelligence tests. The results showed that Northerners, black and white, scored higher than Southerners, black and white. Southern states spend only a fraction of the amount spent in North- ern states for schools. This seems to prove that education governs a person rather than racial traits. The second superiority that a man claims when he says I was born a member of a superior race” is that the character of his race is better. The Nazis boast of their racial character. They believe that the only glorious death is that of dying on the battlefield. When they wanted to make a whole generation into Nazis, they made cer- tain kinds of teaching compulsory in schools, they broke up homes where the people were anti-Nazis, they required boys to join Nazi youth organizations. After doing all of this, they got the kind of character that they wanted. The Japanese have done the same thing to make fighters of a new generation. They are spiritually more like the Germans than like their racial brothers, the peace-loving Chinese. Some people think that the Germans and Japanese are born aggressors and the only way to change them is by force. Some say that they have the wrong kind of education and environment and that it is not a racial trait. Even though the Japanese are of a dif- ferent origin from that which we come from, they are good Ameri- P A G E T W E N T Y - S K V E N cans when brought up in this country. Race prejudice is a deter- mination to keep people down. It makes people cruel. It is the opposite of good character. All races have made their contributions to human knowledge. Those who have lived at the crossroads have invented most and those who have been isolated on islands or away from other people have lived content with the traditional methods of living. In the United States, there are people of different races and from different nations which makes it the greatest crossroads of the world. About every race is represented among our citizens. These races brought their own ways of cooking food so that our American diet is made up of about a dozen different racial contributions. Our salads came from the French and Italians, cranberries from Russia, vegetables from Italy, sea foods from the Mediterranean lands, and appetizers from the Scandinavian countries. At the same time, Americans have popularized ice cream, beefsteak, breakfast foods and corn on the cob. Machines have been made to take the place of hand skills which were brought here from every quarter of the world. If it hadn’t been for the skills of these different races, we wouldn’t have known how to do various things. It is the same way with music and building patterns. Race prejudice is not an old subject. It is hardly a hundred years old. Before that, people persecuted Jews because of their religion instead of their blood. It is not our custom any more to k.ll a man because he has a different religion. Today, weak nations are afraid of strong nations; the poor are afraid of the rich; the nch are afraid they will lose their riches. People are afraid of each other’s political power. Freedom from such fear is the only cure for race prejudice. The Russian nation has shown how race prejudice can be driven out of a country made up of many kinds of people. Instead of letting the people change their minds, they made racial discrimination illegal. They welcomed different customs and dress of many tribes. People that were backward were helped to catch up with the more forward people. The people were helped to develop their own ways and in time the interchange of customs was practiced until each group became a part of the whole. The racial problem has had a greater success in Russia than any other program. What can be done about the race problem? The only way to change the Germans and Japanese is to change the environment of the countries. This can be done by sending books and teachers to these countries. Immigrants from European countries who have learned the American ways can return to their own country and spread the American ways. One other way to help solve this prob- lem is by the interchange of business clubs and trade unions between nations. The United States has quite a number of organizations that are working for race equality such as the China Institute, which PAGE TWENTY.EI G HT promotes the work of Chinese students in America, the Phelps-Stokes Foundation, which has brought many African students here and the East-West Association, which emphasizes the importance of racial understanding, especially between Asiatic and Western peoples. The Rosenwald Foundation has sponsored in the South Negro schools in order to make up for the deficiencies of Southern Negro education. They have also helped to get better Negro housing and health projects in the North. The churches have helped to make people realize that ideas of race superiority or inferiority are un- Christian. There have been unions organized to promote inter- racial understandings. In our own country there have been riots in different cities caus- ed by race prejudice. There were the riots in Detroit and Chicago between the Negroes and the whites about two years ago. In the South the Negroes are put in a class by themselves. They have separate street cars and separate divisions in theatres. America is a democracy. Are we going to let race prejudice exist in this coun- try? Of course we are not. Because the United States is so power- ful and because there are racial difficulties to overcome in this coun- try, we should work to promote tolerance as much as possible. We should clean house and prepare for a better last half of the twentieth century. Then, we could put our hands to the building of the Unit- ed Nations and be sure of support from all races. Elaine Dean, ’45, Salutatorian. Valedictory THE AIR-AGE WORLD When the war has been brought to a successful close, both in Europe and the Pacific, we Americans will be entering a new world in which the development of wings for mankind will prove to be of greater importance than the inventions of the ship or the steam engine. Our country, our freedom, and our lives will be changed by the airplane. Everything we do, every plan which we make for the future will be affected by the airplane. Here are a few facts which may serve as a background for an understanding of Air Age progress. These facts are of such tre- mendous importance to civilization that the world which we are now making has been acclaimed the Air Age.” First, air is universal. Unlike the oceans of water, the air ocean reaches every home on earth. It is a universal highway which knows no boundaries or barriers like mountains, bridges or deserts. The airplane is free to go to any point on the earth regardless of any earthbound obstructions. Because of these barriers, the people have PAGE TWENTY-NINE crowded along the sea coasts, leaving the interiors of the countries undeveloped. The vast resources of the continental interiors of Africa, South America and Asia remain to be developed by air transportation. Many seaports will diminish in importance as air- planes replace ships. Towns at the junctions of air routes will boom. Already new air centers are emerging, such as Wichita, Edmonton, Minneapolis, Fairbanks. From earliest times down to the present, physical boundaries or barriers have separated people. As civilization has progressed, these barriers have caused such difference in people that they result- ed in regionalism and nationalism. There are now such extreme variations in languages that it is impossible for us to talk in other tongues without difficulty. No longer will we have to witness sep- arations of people, for universality has come with the airplane. Th is world we live in today has been developed by surface transportation and communication. Seventy-five per cent of the people in the world live in cities served by sea commerce such as New York, London, Bombay, and San Francisco. These famous ports and centers are beginning to lose their traditional importance for people are now beginning to realize the importance of decentraliza- tion. Decentralization is said to be a necessity in the Air Age. It is required by military security that we have no highly centered industry, and population must be spread out so that we can defend ourselves. Another fact to remember is the airplane’s ability to travel at high speed. Yesterday ships sailed thirty miles an hour. Our relationships with other peoples were based on days. Today air- planes fly at 250 miles per hour. Our relationships with other peo- ples are based on hours. There is no spot on the globe that is more than sixty hours’ flying time from your local airport. They tell us that the vacationist with little money and not many days to spare may visit far-off places like the battlefields of the present war, or the glaciers of Alaska, or tropical islands. Places as far away as China and Japan may be visited in a two weeks’ vacation. To show how the transportation routes are shortened by the airplane, here are a few statistics: the sea route from Seattle to Calcutta is 12,000 miles; the air distance is only 7,225 miles; from San Francisco to Liverpool, it is 8,000 miles by ship, 5,200 miles by air. A cargo plane can make twenty-five trips while a freighter is making one. This proves that the world is shrinking because of the plane. Speed can be sold, just like a commodity. A letter may be of more value when sent by air rather than rail; a business man can be helped by speed of the airplane. Speed is also of great value when it gives us something which we would not otherwise have. For example, fresh-picked vegetables and tree-ripened fruit may reach us by air transportation. PAGE THIRTY The airplane has also changed the maps. The old maps are now useless and misleading for the Air Age. There is a map which shows airline routes that can easily be measured. This is called an Azimuthal Equidistant projection. In simple language, that merely means a map which is centered on a definite spot on the globe, and on which the distance to any other point can be measured. On this map, the straight line connecting the center of the map with any other point is called a great circle route,” which is the shortest distance between two points. The most common form of this map, upon which this war’s strategy is based, is the polar map, which is centered on the North Pole. As you know, the world land areas are not distributed equally. Most of the earth’s land masses lie north of the equator. So a polar map enables us to see with some accuracy three-fourths of the earth’s land area, on which ninety per cent of the earth’s people live. Millions of dollars have been spent to develop these northern routes, and the Arctic routes are being flown every day. A good example of the uses of these routes is the trip of the late Wendall Willkie. He returned home from China by way of Nome, Alaska and Edmonton, Alberta. A plane going to Tokyo from Chicago would fly directly over Alaska. A plane leav- ing New York for Chungking, China would fly directly over the North Pole. The routes followed by planes will not always be the shortest ones. A plane flying a considerable distance must land at cities which will provide passengers and freight in order to help pay the expenses of the line. As you know, long non-stop flights require much fuel, thus increasing the expenses. On the other hand, the airplane flying over the shortest routes will help to settle the un- developed areas over which it flies. The architect will have a new job in the coming Air-Age world. Cities will undergo changes. Public buildings, homes and factories will be constructed so that the roofs may be used as landing space for airplanes. Bigger and better airports will also be designed. The new global peace plane, which experts are now planning may possi- bly be developed from the present B-29’s. Probably the most inter- esting plan is that of building floating airfields, called seadromes which will be placed at intervals of about nine hundred miles along a trans-oceanic route. They will stand seventy feet above the water and will extend one hundred sixty feet below the surface. Such seadromes would make for greater safety. There will be hotels on the floats so that passengers may wait over till the next plane. These are just a few of the plans which will be developed by the architect. As you know, when anything new is developed, many problems arise which must be taken into consideration. So it is with the Air- Age progress. Issues of international law, individual rights, and sovereignty of peoples confront us. The varying degrees of freedom of the air offered by each nation create further complications. Nev- PAGE THIRTY-ONE ertheless each of these issues must be faced and analyzed, and de- cisions must be made. The most important problem is, Who owns the air?” We are all familiar with the words freedom of the seas.” The War of 1812 and the war against the Barbary pirates were fought for this reason. In peacetime, a ship of any nationality may pass through any body of water. But the air ocean is not free as we know the free seas. As a rule, ownership extends from the surface to the center of the earth and to the sky above. Wendell Willkie was the first person to fly around the world and return home from China by way of Alaska. His trip covered 31,000 miles. He stopped at Cairo, Egypt, Baghdad in Iraq, Tehran in Iran, Kuibyshev, Russia, Moscow and Chungking, China. In order to take this trip, our State Department had to get free- dom of the air from every country over which Mr. Willkie flew. This problem, Who owns the air,” must be solved soon. Of what im- portance would the great circle route be if a plane had to abandon this route to circle around some unaccommodating territory? In November, 1944, a world conference was held in Chicago to discuss air transportation problems. Australian and New Zealand delegates proposed international ownership of the air services of the world routes. But the proposal was disapproved by the Brazilian delegate who offered an amendment stressing that ownership of air- craft must be national instead of international. Aloph Berle, Jr., of the United States, Assistant Secretary of State and chairman of the conference approved of the amendment saying, The life of the world is built up by national effort. International co-operation is not built by international domination.” It appears that the entire air conference is now looking forward to a consultative form of world air control authority. It would be wise as well as interesting to follow the World Air Conferences in the daily paper. In order that adults and youth may direct Air-Age progress intelligently, they require in addition to technical education, an understanding of the importance of the airplane to mankind. New books on airplanes, maps, and globes are being published for the high school boy and girl. Some schools have already started courses in the study of the Air Age.” The need for Air-Age education is urgent. It is essential that we educate the high school boy and girl to be air-minded. As we, the graduating class of 1945, leave home and school, we leave with you, our parents, teachers, and friends, our thanks for past encouragement and assistance, and a plea which we know you will fulfill: help us to mold this Air-Age world into a world of peace and friendship so that future generations may live in a world of safety.
