I I LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE To an ideal and to a man we dedicate this book. The ideal is preparation for the future through education; the man is Mr. Vierling Kersey, who has done most in our times to further this ideal. An essential part of this future will be careful planning. Each of us must give serious thought to our problems and requirements in order to meet them adequately. Upon graduation, each student will have to make an adjustment between his school life, in which he had many of his problems solved for him, and a life in a more mature business world, in which he will have to make his own decisions. There is a definite connection between these two lives, inasmuch as in the first we are planning and preparing for the second. Our main objectives at the present are thinking ahead, setting a goal, and planning ac- cordingly, The most important thing for each student to do now, especially during the present crisis, is to prepare for a complete and well roounded future. A man who has done as much as, or more than, any one person to further the cause of preparation through education is our superintendent of schools, Mr. Vierling Kersey. He has been and is continuing to be a motivating force for this plan. All of his energies are directed tc its immediate fulfillment. His past experience as principal of Metropolitan High School, assistant superintendent, and state superintendent of schools, well qualifies him for the work he has undertaken. It is his work to guide the students of Los Angeles through these difficult days of preparation and to solve any problems that may arise. Our school life has great significance. In Mr. Kersey ' s own words, No day of school must pass without emphasis on thrift, industry and loyalty to our country, what these quali- ties mean and how they obligate every person to examplify them in daily conduct, discussion and thought, Because of the present crisis, Mr, Kersey ' s task takes on still more meaning. He is a tireless worker and has devoted his whole professional life to the study of education. To an ideal, to a man, to a democracy of social and vocational fulfillment through a people piepared for their place in life, we dedicate the annual of S ' 42.
