Slaa W W Simlefdix el mammalulsxlllmlllluallllllmmnalllmnnazsuwauullllullglnl W 'W' Smal You, to whom these lines are addressed, will never read them. Yet, somehow, we will feel better for having said them and hope that others reading them may find increased comfort and inspiration to carry on. To the North, the South, the East, the West, you went forth to continue your patriotic service, but to continue it under more dangerous circustances than you had ever performed it before. And out there, somewhere, you were finally called upon to render your highest service - the laying down of your life. We are indeed reminded here of Him who said, Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. We, the living, pledge to you, the dead, that you shall not have died in vain. Honor compells us to safeguard the freedoms and privileges for which you gave your all. We pledge you to keep these blessed privileges intact for your families and for ours. Today we stand reverently and humbly before you. Wherever and however you gave your life - on land, on sea, under the sea or in the air - we salute you! You have not died in vain. And may the blessed truth of our risen Lord bring to your loved ones and to us a hastening of the day when all people shall give glory to God, when peace shall prevail on all the earth, and when good will shall reign among all men.

H. S. more than 150 strong, or so we thought until we were put in our place by the dignified seniors of that year. During the course of the year, several of the frosh went to Miami to participate in the Scholarship Tests while others won honors in the American Legion Essay Contest. As sophomores. we were formally introduced to high school society, and many of our members were active in the Girl Reserves, Hi-Y, and other extra-curricular activities. Again, several o-f our students won honors in the Miami Scholarship Tests, and oth- ers assumed leading roles in the Van Cleve Vanities and the operetta, Oh Doctor! Our junior year was even more eventful than the others had been. Under the leadership of James Agna, David Galbreath. Mione Martin, and Paul Hildebrand, we not only completed successfully all the junior activities, but also set a fine example of patriotism for the entire student body by instituting Junior Bond Week, a war activity, novel in the history of the school. As seniors, we looked with greatest pride upon our contributions to the war effort. Our greatest pride, naturally, rested with those of our class who had been called to the service of our countryg but at school the members of the class were busy buying war bonds and stamps, helping in various scrap drives, working after school in war plants, and taking part in the dedication of the school service flag. However, we also excelled in other fields. For example, in schdarship, six of our students, Barbara Hansford, Mione Martin, Marilyn Klser, Elizabeth Edminson, Virginia Herman, and Olive Snedeker became members of the National Honor Society and fifteen of our number took the Senior Scholarship Test: in sport, the football team, composed largely of seniors, had a highly successful season, and the basketball team with three senior regulars won the Miami Valley League co-championship and ad- vanced to the finals of the district tournament at Daytong in music, several of us appeared in the annual operetta, Tune In. As class officers. we chose Murray Dalton, David Galbreath, Mione Martin, and Desmond Wolfe. They led us through all our class projects and the senior activities including the senior play, The Importance of Being Earnest , the senior dinner, the Junior-Senior Prom, Baccalaureate, and finally Commencement itself. As the 107 members of the class of '44 go forward to the days of the future, they join together in saying, WHAT WE ARE TO BE, WE ARE NOW BECOMING.

Walters Plot of the Play As a means of escaping from social obligations, Jack Worthing invented a younger brother Ernest, a young man reputed to be wild. His ward, Cecily imagines herself in love with the hypothetical brother, and when Jack's friend, Algernon. presents him'elf to Cecilv as the mythical brother, confusion results. Lady Bracknell's insistence that Algernon provide him- self with at least one parent before he may hope to marry her daughter Gwendclen, and Miss Prism's romance with Dr. Chasuble help to complicate the plot which resolves itself when it is established that there really is an Ernest after all.

The boys played many hard games but came through at the end of the season with the Co-Championship of the Miami Val- ley League. In March, the team Went to the Southwestern Ohio District Tournament finals after defeat- ing Xenia and Piqua. In the final district game Middletown defeated Troy. Several basketball boys will go into the armed services this year, and Troy High may be proud that those boys will fight hard for Uncle Sam in true Trojan spirit. xg' if-all l 6215 lllll' , :unsung ,:nnl:, C 1112717 xx- ffl 15.26491 t mv K , iii B.: ..'
