The world loves a champion. Every one loves a real champion, but there are many different ideas as to what constitutes a champion. Our aim is to make this school a champion in all lines. Not that we want to hog as much glory as we can but that we want to excell in as many activities as we can. We want to excell because excellence shows that we are working at the job every solitary minute. From an athletic standpoint, we have proven ourselves to be champions in a number of major events. The whole school and the whole community join in being proud of our accomplishments. Our victories of the past two years have been glorious. These vic- tories have given us strength to do even greater things in the future. A school to be a champion must be big and broad enough to keep from being swelled up about accomplishment. I think I have never heard of a school that has lived up to this requirement quite so well as this one has. I am sure the day will never come when people will have the right to say that we have become chesty with a little success. N0 river or stream ever rises higher than its source. No school ever rises higher than the ambitions of its pupils and the leadership of the school. Your ambition must be high if you expect the school to hold its place in the sun. I know you have the ability and the ambition. I am looking forward to greater years for Polytechnic High School. If I could feel sure that no pupil would ever go through this school without being thoroughly thrilled every time we sing: Poly, you are my own dear high school, The only school for me, Always I'l1 sing thy praises, Poly, and tell my love for you, etc. I would know that there could be no force capable of keeping us from being a champion school in every sense. I feel no hesitancy in trusting the reputation of the school in the hands of the pupils that honor its traditions. My regards and love to the departing graduates, my congratulations to them, and my highest hopes for them. Sincerely yours, J. P. MOORE, Principal.
