THE FOUR CORNERS Flight Aviation, Aviation .Mathematics, Model Aircraft Project for the Tinted States Xavv, Current Aviation (Behold our Flyers!), Shop .Mathematics, Radio Communications, Trigonometry. Physical Fitness, Spanish and First Aid. These are courses whieh will he as practical in the future as they are at the present time. Lame muscles and poor posture are be¬ coming things of the past because of our Victory courses in Physical Fitness. After a work-out in these course?, we should he ready for labor in industry, on farms, or in the Armed Forces. First Aid is a course which everyone en¬ joys and finds practical. ‘‘The immediate, temporary treatment given in case of acci¬ dent or sudden illness before the services of a physician can be secured’’ can now be administered by a majority of our stu¬ dents. On the practical and cultural side, we have first-year Spanish. In studying this we hope to open the door of friendship with our neighbors in the South. The LTuitod States expects a closer relationship in the fulure, both in industrial and social affairs, so we’re planning to get acquainted. We want to say “Saliulos Amigos,” too. In order to arrange for these additional subjects, in a curriculum that still offers college and general courses, we have re¬ turned to the stationary schedule, more periods each day. Everyone works harder, of course, THIS IS WAR! THE CURE FOR A NEW DISEASE Hoarding is a disease which has spread all over the country. Although it is neither contagious nor infectious, it is dangerous and threatens human lives. To eat or not to cat is no longer the ques¬ tion, because Uncle Sam has taken a hand. 7 Me 1ms the cure for this disease, rationing. Everyone has become familiar with the term, rationing, within the last year, but did von know that rationing began with I lie Pilgrims ? They had scant supplies for I hat first winter, so they planned ahead and shared with each other. Rationing is even more essential in these times. We have many starving people in foreign coun¬ tries dependent upon us for life, itself. We have an armv to feed, and if it is to do its job effectively, it must be well-fed. We may complain about giving up coffee, or sugar, or gas, but wo are not asked to give an arm, or a leg, or our life. The rubber raft repaid a thousandfold the loss of that vacation mountain trip, when it saved men like Rickenbacker. Rationing is new to us; new things have their faults, but as time goes on we shall all be more grateful for this fair sharing of prized commodities. IT ' S UP TO US Many of our high school students have friends or relatives in the Armed Forces of our country. Needless to say we all want to do our part to win the war so they may come back to us soon. Even a high school student can aid in this effort by being, ‘‘The Man Behind The Man Behind The Gun.” This summer there will be literally thousands of posi¬ tions open to high school boys and girls. Some of these jobs may not be glamorous, but is that of the street cleaner, or the sol¬ dier on the battlefield? Yet these jobs are important to the welfare of mankind. Here is a challenge: Will you take the job devoid of glamour but essential for Victory? Will you ask yourself, “Where can I serve best ?”
