URING the past year as Principal of the University High School I have found increasing happiness and friendship in all my associations with the students here. 'At the beginning of the fall semester I delegated to you as large a measure of pupil participation and management in the school as I thought could be profitably car1'ied out by you. You have handled the school affairs just as I had hoped you would and have made University High School a co-operatively managed organization. ' I have come to the realization that I am going to lose an integral part of this school make-up-that is, the Senior class. A Worthy purpose has been served by all of you. You have been an aid and an inspiration in the growth of the school and We are going to miss you. To know you Seniors has been indeed a joy to meg and my one wish to you graduates is success in Whatever you undertake in the future. I 1 GEORGE A. RICE.

HE SANDS of time have covered the Cub Tracks leading to a place of hibernation. A new Cub has come to the domain of University High-a Cnb new in characteristics but old in tradition. Only memories are left by Cub Tracks. Our new Club will begin immediately using inborn instincts to put University's record in a worth while form. h The new Cub has brought with it many new features and im- provements--the straight back cover, more pages, better paper, more pictures and cuts, and a double-payment system. Because of his magnetic personality and friendly characteristics, the Cub has found a place in the hearts of the entire student body. MAS KS The world is a masqnerazle party, And we all have our ozcn masks to wear. The rielz man pretends he is lzappyg And the poor man pretends lie eloesrff care. Brut iznrlervzeatlz. all tlzese false faces, Tlze eomeely cannot go far, For at nigln' :ellen zee loolf in flze '7llil'?'0l'V, llfe see ourselz'es just as we are. N THE drama of high school activity, masks play a most im- ' portant part, for every one of us is acting a role. Even the most l frank hide their emotions behind false faces of nonchalance or cheerfulness. The defeated candidate, corresponding to the poor man of the poem, smiles and pretends he doesnt care, although disap- pointment is lurking behind the apparent cheerfulness. Athletes or contestants in any other sort of competition assume an air of uncon- cern, which is rarely, if ever, felt. The senior, on the day of gradua- tion, seems undecided whether he will don the mask of grief or glad- ness. And which one of us has not hidden behind the mask of intelli- gence when he hoped it would lead the teacher to believe he had studied? This issue of Cub has chosen as its theme, therefore, to show the stage setting and action for our part in the drama of school life, to express by masks, the symbols of drama, what University's thoughts, activities, and interests really are, and to give recognition to the actors and actresses who havemade 'themselves known.
