F O R E W O R D 0 HE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE NOTED FOR THEIR LOVE OF SPORTS. GET INTO THE GAME, HAS COME TO APPLY NOT ONLY TO A CONTEST ON THE FIELD, BUT ALSO TO THE GAME OF LIFE. THE WORD GAME SIGNIFIES THAT ONE IS IN HONOR BOUND TO OBSERVE CERTAIN RULES OF CONDUCT IF THE GAME OF BUSINESS, LEISURE, LIFE IS TO DEVELOP SATISFACTORILY . . . I-IE IS A GOOD SPORT. HE IS GAME. SUCH TERMS ARE USED ONLY IN ADMIRATION AND APPROVAL, BUT WHAT DO THEY REALLY MEAN? . . . MANY ARE THE SLOGANS THAT HAVE BEEN COINED IN THE ATTEMPT TO EXPRESS IN WORDS THAT INTANGIBLE SPIRIT WHICH PROMIPTS ONE UNERRINGLY TO DO AND SAY THE RIGHT THING. BUT AFTER ALL, IS NOT THE REAL TEST OF GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP THE SATISFACTION ONE FEELS, EITHER IN VICTORY OR DEFEAT, THAT THE GAME HAS BEEN PLAYED ACCORDING TO THE RULES, AND NO QUARTER ASKED OR GIVEN . . . THE CLASS OF 1934 LEAVES SCHOOL AT A TIME WHEN THE SWORLD SEEMS TO HAVE LITTLE NEED OF THOUSANDS OF NEW GRADUATES. NEW ADIUSTMENTS, NEW RULES, PERHAPS A NEW GAME MUST RESULT BEFORE THEY CAN ADAPT THEMSELVES TO THE SITUATION . . . BUT ENCOUR- AGED BY THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THE SIDE LINES ARE CHEERING, AND, ALTHOUGH THE FIGHT WILL BE HARDER, THE CHANCES ARE EQUAL FOR A HIGH SCORE, THE MEMBERS OF THE GRADU- ATING CLASS OF KIBLER HIGH SCHOOL PRESENT THIS SCORE CARD OF THE GAME THEY PLAYED IN SCHOOL, DETERMINED TO BE GOOD SPORTS, GET INTO THE BIG GAME, AND PLAY THE GAME WITH THE NET UP.
