FUR Wlllill No scolastic year could be as the past one nor could there be another PIONEER such as this. The PIONEER staff has put forth the greatest effort to include in this book all the outstanding features which best illustrate and express the past year. The activities of 1947 have been carried on as a tradition of former years - we participated in extra-curricular activities, many old rivals were visited in basketball and we went to classes to suffer and enjoy ourselves as those before us have done. Putting aside the suffering and strife we have endured, this year has been and always will remain unique in the minds of our graduates. The war being over we leave our Alma Mater to put into effect what our teachers have struggled to teach us, that we may make the world become more democratic and peaceful so that the victory our boys won will not have been in vain.
