1 FQREWGRD . .. Each year, in publishing the Blue Book, the staff has some definite aim in making its book different from all its predecessors. This year it has been our aim to change the layout of every page, so that the general appearance would be as different and original as possible. We have tried to incorporate more informals of underclassmen and of sports in order to make the book more appealing to more people. We have attempted in every way to show through pictures and writing what has happened in school this past year. Every effort has been made, and rightly so, to have the Seniors, who have led the school in its activities during the past year, predominate throughout the book. This publication has meant a lot of work and pleasure to us, and we hope that you will enjoy reading it as much as we have enjoyed publishing it. Thus, with gratitude to those who have helped to make this book possible, and to the Seniors, who have entrusted their yearbook to us, we present to you the Blue Book for 1940. we fs .. ,- t ,: 5 i - 4,--Q--',fwr:fis fs , Z assess if . -K' 1 fy , -i - ' ,.

DEDICATICDN The man to whom this Blue Book is dedicated is not one who has been in school so very long, but one who has had ample time to win the highest admiration of the class of 1940. We feel sure that all those who are leaving school this June and who have been fortunate enough to have taken a course with Mr. West will remember him well for his disposition, his apt and fahemlj witty puns, for his pleasing personality, and above all for his technique in conducting his Math classes. He is easy going without sacrificing order and authority, and his courses will always bring to us memories of jobs pleasantly and harmoniously done. The greatest tribute that we can give to Mr. West is to say that no matter how hard Math has been for some of us, none of us have ever suffered through a Math course, for Mr. West, helpful' and understanding of our difiiculties, has done his best to help us come out on top. Thus it is with a sincere feeling of respect that we, the Class of 1940, dedicate our Blue Book to Francis W. West, a most understanding friend. Princeton and Columbia
