RADITIONS of Polytechnic High School would not be treasured as highly as they are if their originaf tors were not so much admired by each succeeding class of students. Years of pl ant and helpful association with the administrative staff are evidenced in the spirit of Poly's student body. DEAN OF GIRLS What has this school year of 1926-27 meant in the lives of the 375 girls who in June will leave the familiar places, to take up other interests? If it has turned out girls of character and ideas, girls with no wish to escape the task that is hard or difficult to do: if it has created in their hearts sympathy for others and love of fair-play, then something great and precious has been ac- complished, for which we all rejoice. -Anna M. Gilbert VICE-PRINCIPAL If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lostg that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them - Thoreau. Let us hope that this Caerulea, dedicated to the Romantic Future , may be an inspiration to the students of Long Beach Polytechnic High School to build such strong foundations that there may be no limit to the height to which they may build in the years to come. -H. J. Moore

But if California. is to achieve greatness that will endure, it will not be alone because of material advancement but also because we of today lay the foundation for a citizenry of tomorrow which will be worthy of the highest possibilities of this fair land. . In the accomplishment of this supreme task the schools will play a leading role. Our boys and girls must be prepared to take their place in a complex society, to meet the problems incident to great industrial and commercial development: but above and beyond this, they must be pre- pared to discharge their duties as citizens in a democracyg to do inde- pendant thinkingg to act courageously, realizing that every privilege carries with it a corresponding responsibility 3 to support law and order, decency, and civic righteousnessg to discriminate between liberty and licenseg to esteem the common good above personal privilegeg and to place service above self. Do these essentials of good citizenship hold the central place in the training which our boys and girls receive in school? Then the future of our state is secure. -David Burcham

L RE GISTRAR The achievements of the past are a source of inspiration for the future. A survey of the roll of graduates reveals a field from which such in- spiration may be gained. Earlier classes have produced many noble men and women whose at- tainments are worthy of emulation. May the graduating classes of 1927 contribute in generous measure to this group. -Frank G. Reid VOCATIONAL ADVISER Greetings to the seniors of 1927! May each of you so mold your conditions of living and working' that you can give full measure of service to others and thereby gain a fair share of 1ife's happiness for yourself. -Jane L. Fox RESEARCH DIRECTOR The opportunities for self-expression and self-realization among young people are many and are increasing every year. May the class of 1927 share in large measure such opportunities! -David Segel
