Back to the Greeks has been a world slogan ever since the Golden Age of Pericles. We in Los Angeles have definitely fol- lowed the suggestion by adopt- ing the name Ephebians for our honor society of the c!ty high schools. We use as an initiation into the organization the impres- sive oath of allegiance which was taken 2000 years ago by young Athenians as they became Ephebia or citizens. We will never bring disgrace to this our city, by any act of dishonesty or cowardice, is one of the promises made. Such a vow, if universally made and kept, would bring the millenium.

Strive with all the energy at your command. Give the best of whicli you are capable. This places you among the real victors. Strive to the utmost. This was a fundamental requirement of the Greek athlete, and it is the re- quirement today of every contest- ant whatever the game he enters. To strive really means to reach far out to receive, not the wreath of victory, but the torch of en- deavor that is to be handed to you. Carry it aloft and deliver it with an added glow to the one who follows. Then you will have performed the service rightfully expected. W. A. Dunn, Principal

Nineteen hundred thirty-two will sttind out in Los Angeles history as the great Olympic year. These games have come down to us from about 1453 B.C., when, according to Greek mythology, they were instituted in honor of the god, Zeus. These festi- vals were abolished in 394 A.D. and not revived until 1896, a lapse of more than 1500 years. The Golden Mean was the ideal of the Greeks, constituting the wor- ship of Truth, Beauty, and Good- ness. The Greek philosopher, Plato, said, The good life is one that is calm and harmonious. This summer we shall have the privilege of wit- nessing the greatest gathering of sportsmen the world has ever seen. May these men and women show this turbulent world a real revival of the Greek ideal. J. G. GooDSELL, Vice-Principal
