Woe' Glau S Remember the times We had as bewildered freshies? How We dreaded every fearful step that brought us closer to those merciless sponsors, who literally shoveled make-ups and notes to our parents in our bulging pockets? No longer freshies we found that the sponsors were not unjust. They were willing to give us advice and aid to set us upon the straight and narrow path. By our junior year we had gradually come to realize the importanece of these sponsors whom we now regarded as friends. When We became seniors, many problems arose that seemed at the moment unsurmountable. However, under the guidance of these councilors such problems as those connected with going to college, graduating ahead of schedule, the prom, or getting a suit- able start in a career were quickly straighitened out. For these many services rendered, we, the senior class, shall be ever grateful. Mr. Stone - Sophomores: Mrs. O Mara Seniors Miss Hemtz Freshmen: Mr. Coble - Iuniors. Wd may

The manpower shortage on the homefront, due to the war, has put an added burden to the duties of Mr. Williamson, in charge of our Placement Bureau. Our boys, eager to pitch in and do their bit, look to him to place them in a job that will best suit the needs of everyone. Approximately eight hundred have been placed in part time jobs during the past year. At the present time Uncle Sam is claiming most of our seniors for a very important job-the job of winning this war. Ioseph Zales and Robert Miller confer with lVlr. Vtfilliamson about future war work. In this office are kept the results of all those tests We took as freshmen and sophomores and many other records too numerous for our peace of mind: however, most Techmen are learning to consider this an advantage and are using the information to make better progress. Mrs. Hilton is tak- ing the place of Mr. Morton Strassman, who is on leave. and with her assistants is doing a splendid job. Do you have any problems? Need any advice? Perhaps you wish help in choosing your c-areer. The Adjustment Office is the place to go for aid of all sorts. Here you will find in Mrs- Hilton a combination of parent, teacher, and Mr Anthony who listens with understanding and finds some way out of the difficulties that bother you.
