RAY ZIMMERMAN PAUL K. ROSSITER Member Scvreturjl for the Board In a short time you will move into your places in a World engaged in a great struggle to preserve liberty, justice, and democracy. These principles are threatened by barbaric and powerful enemies. The older members of society are sorry that they did not rid the world of wars, as promised and pledged in 1918. Having failed, we are asking' you to go forward from your Alma Mater determined to maintain and support justice, to protect and per- fect democracy so that the Torch of Liberty may forever remain lighted.

,NN We are at war-yet we love peace. We did not make this war. It was made by those who want to make slaves of other people. We do not hate people. We fight against their way of lifeg we fight for freedom for all people, for freedom from want, from fear - for freedom of speech, of religion, and of the press. Why must we declare ourselves so forcefully con- cerning our position in this present conflict? Simply because so many people the world over have been deprived of the effects of an education. By deny- ing them this advantage, their leaders have been able to establish in their undeveloped minds an at- titude of blind devotion, even though it leads to an untimely and cruel death. Such is not the case in our country, where each individual has had made available for him an oppor- tunity unequaled in any other country of the earthg namely, free education. It is not to be stated in this book whether each individual listed or pictured herein has taken the greatest advantage of this opportunity. However as you close your high school career, or, as you con- tinue through the next year or two to approach the goal of graduation, this challenge is placed before you: Be leaders for freedom and examples to free men everywhere !
