DEDICATIQN When the members of the Class of l9h6 began to plan this book they de- cided that it should be dedicated to the nine alumni of Rockville High School who made the supreme sacrifice in the late World War. It seems only a short time ago since these young men were students in Rockville High School. Then they were looking forward to graduation time and with the enthusiasm of youth were eager to get out into the world. Upon graduation some of them entered upon business careers, some accepted employment in in- dustry, while others entered college. Then came World War II. None of them wanted to go to war and leave their families and friends, but their patriot- ism and the realization that our Country was in danger impelled them to brave the dangers and to do their best for the cause of humanity. They went through harsh disciplinary training and in due time were sent out upon the seas and through the air to strange continents and lonely islands. They were afraid in battle for they loved life, yet through courage and bravery they kept going forward in the face of death. But the angel of death met them in strange lands and on far distant seas, thus ending their earthly hopes, dreams, and ambitions. Let us think of them as somewhere out there in infinity beyond the stars where their expanded vision sees beyond the clouds of today and glimpses the dawn of a new world--a world freed fran the fetters of greed and base ambition--a world in which the rights of man are recognized and respected, and a world that shall see the culmination of the brotherhood of mankind, where men will no longer shed their blood on the battlefield and peace shall reign supreme. It is for us, the living, to dedicate ourselves and our lives to carry the torch which HOMER ARNOLD, JR., CHARLES BELL, RICHARD GRAHAM, MALCOLM GROSS, JOHN HAVEY, FRED SMITH, ROBERT H. SMITH, PAUL TAYLOR, and CLAY THOMAS have passed on to us. Such supreme sacrifices must not be made in vain. --Claude Noble
