Maxaman ma vaaaafa wa, Keep 'em Hyin' is the motto of Mr. Voss's pre-flight class as they study the technicalities of aeronautics. This course furnishes a substantial background for those interested in meteorology or for boys planning to enter the air-corps. As mathematics forms the root and trunk of the tree of knowledge, so it forms the basis of the present military strategy. No other group of workers can be more emphasized for their impor- tance in the mechanical and strategical part of our national defense than the men and boys with mathematical ability. Union caters very patriotically to the production of such experts by offering as many stages of mathematics possible for those with the ability to master them. Included in this Victory program are algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and physics. Leit - MR. FLOYD EARLY, MR. MAYNARD ELLINGSON KEEP 'EM FLYIN' Kouchoukos. and Class Members MACLENNAN, MR.

Uaaflf ' ,aw MISS HELEN OLSON Extending a ready hand to aid all who may need it and making the way for a better tomorrow are two invaluable characteristics of Principal Charles A. Everest. Efficiently aiding him in numerous daily tasks in the office is Miss Helen Olson. The fact that Mr. Everest is a very patriotic enthus- iast has resulted in Union's holding first place honors in the city-wide defense campaigns. His zealous in- terest and unrelenting efforts in the projects here created new aspirations among the students to do their utmost today to make the world safe tomorrow. Not only does this qualified authority take charge of scholastic affairs, but he also answers the numer- ous questions which students and visitors inquire. Doubtlessly, there are many occasions when only his keen sense of humor has saved some lucky scamp MR. CHARLES A. EVEHEST from the punishment that would otherwise have been dealt him. Fewer outside activities and more good old book larnin' is the policy now adopted by Mr. Everest and the faculty. Many privileges, however, are still granted with the freedom traditional at Union. How- ever, like so many other things the war has curtailed, a few activities have been discarded in favor of the three Miss Helen Olson has really proved herself to be the highly resourceful and capable person she is be- lieved to be. During the month's illness of Principal Everest, she ably proceeded to take charge in his absence and performed the duties of a principal with nary a hitch until his return.

Science ani '70 '4 WMM Important formulae and molecular mixtures keep the students interested in Mr. Bazuin's chemis- try class, where they are being taught the fundamentals of one of the most productive sciences both for today's war and a better tomorrow. Biology is another vertebra in the backbone of science which is receiving concentrated attention at Union as Miss Perrin's and Mr. 1-Iess's classes study plants and animal lite. Geography widens knowledge of the world, and hygiene, sanitation, and physiology make for sound social and personal health for the strenuous days ahead, Right - MISS ELIZABETH PERRIN Left -MR.
