AND YOU These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country, but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily con- quered, yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every- thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods, and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated .... And so, as Thomas Paine described the times of the eighteenth century, today in the twentieth century, the world is still striving for universal peace, relentlessly struggling against a tyranny which is seeking to uproot and destroy the ideals for which man has constantly searched. ln l945 the nations of the world proposed plans for a world organization which would work towards final world-peace. This U. N. organization is inextricably bound with education, since it is directed by these three principles in its activities: full and equal opportunities for education for all, the unrestricted pursuit of objective truth, and the free exchange of ideas and knowl- edge. lt is the universal belief that only through sincere under- standing of our fellow man can peace be obtained. And under- standing can only come through the education of the heart and of the mind. W .... since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defenses of peace must be constructed . . Believing that the U. N. and international peace can come only through education, the l95l Artisan is hopefully woven around the theme -the U. N. and Youl Johnny Rodriguez.

The United Nations has become, in avery real sense, the nerve center of the world. Making use of its facilities are fifty-nine governments Working to solve the problems of their relationships and depending upon it more and more as a means of settling their differences swiftly and peacefully. The United Nations is a World effort. The supreme goal of the U. N. is the elimination of war. Its toughest problem today is that of keeping the peace Without the machinery to enforce the peace! The United Nations has organized UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. This organization will help very much by bringing about a universal respect for, and observance of, human rights and fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language or religion. UNESCQ, a specialized agency of the United Nations, seeks better understand- PAGE 6 ing among the peoples of the world through education, science and culture. During the war Axis countries pursued a deliberate policy of destroying the technical, pro- fessional, and teaching personnel of the countries they had conquered and, as a result, have encouraged hatred and misunderstanding between nations, peoples, and cultural groups. lt is only through the schools that understanding may be taught to the children. This important fact can not be too greatly stressed. Education is our only solution to the problem which now faces us. Education is the only key that will open the door to discernment, peace, goodwill and earthly tranquillity. Our salvation lies in our schools. The stories of the material destruction caused in the war will be a mere myth for those who will come after us. But it is the wounds of the spirit that it is ever so difficult but urgently important to heal so that love and faith and hope may replace the spirit of hatred and revenge. Children know no barriers of race and creed. Let us not educate them to know them.

These boys are acquir- ing the skills and knowledge that are necessary in becoming well-trained machinists. They are learning the different uses of precision tools. They are required to take such subjects - mathematics, drawing, and science - as pertain to the industry. This course is helpful in many other ways, because it teaches them self-reliance and clear judgment. Upon finishing the course, the students must know how to figure different mechanical formulas relating to the tradeg to make free-hand sketches of simple and complicated machine partsg to have an understanding of specifications and blue- prints and to be able to interpret their meaning and record data from them.

By the time the Radio students graduate, they are capably trained in re- pairing radios, radio receivers, amplifiers, and transmitters. Television, the baby industry, comes in for its share ot attention as Felix Salas, Richard Bless, Calvin Doyle, and Ierry Baluselc repair a TV set. Salvador Leon, Fred Herrera, and Gabriel Esqueda learn from looking. Radio Shop lockers are kept in repair by Iimmy Trevino, Moses Velasco, Efmeterio Valdez, and Manuel Zertuche. SHEET METAL Preparing themselves for the industrial World are the Sheet Metal stu- dents. They are learning to repair radiators, gasoline tanks, bodies and fenders of the cars ot students and teachers. Qur sheet metal boys make the garbage cans that are found on our campus. The theory of the sheet metal trade must be studied first by all beginners. Toni Love, Louis Munoz, Gerald Griffin, Iacinto Davila, and Augustine Sarabia straighten a hood. This course gives the students a chance to learn the different tools that they will use when they begin working. Since skilled sheet metal Workers are in demand, they will be sure to build a bright future for themselves. These boys will have no trouble in finding employment, as they are thoroughly trained in their profession. Lee Thornton and Rene Neira straighten a fender while Ed Rips learns more about the body of a car. WELDING Santos Gonzalez Welds a piece ot automobile frame. lt's not as easy as it sounds. Welders need brains as Well as strength. Because the Welder stands most of the time, he must be in top physical con- dition.

Super Wiener roasts before Christmas, big picnics in May with baseball and swimming make for a wonderful time. Organized in 1941 and sponsored by Mr. Studhalter, this club will accept only eighteen members. PAGE 118 GARDEN CLUB lsn't that beautifull What? Why that flower display, of course. lt looks like an expensive arrangement from one of the downtown shops, but actually it was made by the members of the Garden Club. All year 'round this club provides beautiful flowers for the main hall or for different classrooms. Come the all important occasions like the Senior Prom or the Military Ball, the club members make corsages to sell to the students. Spring comes to school when the members of the Garden Club get out and plant the lovely flowers which add such great beauty to our school. The club takes great pride and interest in planting and caring for the beautiful garden in front of Tech. Members of the Garden Club plant lilies and iris bulbs.

STUDENT COUNCIL Heavens! What's going on in there? Why don't you know? The Student Council is hard at work. Each busy beaver represents an ad- visory. The meetings are held twice a month with discussions of important com- ing events. Among the duties of this Tech government is conducting welcome as- semblies and installing officers of the classes and clubs. The Council strives to improve our school, care for our Lost and Found Cffice, Snack Bar, and last, but not least, our campus. The members hold a caucus. The fire committee discuss a fire drill. The Student Council decorates for Christmas. The clean-up committee practices what it preaches. PAGE 120 TECH LITTLE TH EATER Lightsl Actionl The play begins. Perhaps it is the first play tor Mary and she's nervous. But she keeps in mind that she is not only advertising the school, raising money tor dramatic activities, providing Tech with good enter- tainment, but developing her own character and personality. While some Little Theatre members are directing plays, others are work- ing on costumes. There is always someone needed to work on the lights and scenery. But all is not work tor our actor friends. The Thespian initiation has everyone excited. Then the big honor comes when the Spring Awards are given. Finally, the May picnic closes the season. You can readily see that these ambitious students profit all around. They acquire a spirit ot initiativeness, co-operativeness, and dependability.

Although the lndians managed to win their first victory over Tech in ten years, the Buffs' spirit was burning. ln the closing second of the game, the team was again at the goal line.

The Buffs all but rgn the Mules off the field in the first quarter, but the Mules proved too stubborn and held, then pushed over ci score of their own in the second quarter, The point was missed and Tech trailed U-6, The second half told much the sgme story, and the Buffs showed good defense as they held the strong Mules to oi grim l3-O victory.

The Bears startled the Buffs with a tricky-spread formation, but the Buffs caught on and started rolling for the first time this year with Dickie Delgado racing 65 yards for the first touch- down, followed by I-lumbert Martinez, whose 80 yard gallop defaced the Bears. ln this game the Buffs showed what they could do with boys the same size.

This win broke a seven year winning streak ot the Buffs over Lanier. Although we did get good breaks, mistakes brought about the surprising defeat. BRACKENRIDGE 56-14 November 16, 1950 Tech started rolling against Brackenridge early in the tirst quarter when Marcey Gonzales caught a pass trom Dickie Delgado and caught the Eagles asleep. But the Butts couldn't keep it up and the revenge minded Eagles used everything they could in one ot the roughest games seen at Alamo Stadium this year. BURBANK 21f7 November 22, 1950 Tech, playing their last game of the season, subdued Burbank 21-7. Humberto Martinez started the Butts rolling with a 70 yard touchdown gal1op and a few minutes later crossed the goal line from his own 5. The other touchdown was made on a 25 yard run by Willie Almaraz. Raul Medina kicked all 3 extra points, and that was the score.
