'All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts.- -Shakespeare In the play called Life, the Great Director casts some in leading, some in supporting roles. Whether our part be played back- stage or whether We be starred under the pitiless publicity of the Kliegs, may We play our part in the world of men so that upon our exit the Critic will call it good. L. V. Windnagle Producers you have called us-if producers We be, it is not of actors and actresses en? clowed with physical beauty, but producers whose efforts are exerted toward develop- ing character and beauty of conduct. Hazel M. Ohmert

l To the vnezzzbers of the jfmumfy '39 class:- O attain the greatest success in your future career, whether you select the movies, the stage, a profession, or a vocation, you must keep yourself physically fir and mentally alert. Lives have been wrecked and successes impaired through' failure to observe the rules of proper living. Whatever you undertake to do in your future life, strive to do it to the best of your ability and live up to the rules of the game. Life, as Well as sports, must be governed by rules of fair play and good sportsmanship. If you follow these rules, no matter what your future business success may be, your life itself will be an inspiration to others and a satisfaction to yourself. Hugh Boyd

To the Faculty E, the January cast of 1939, Wish to express our gratitude to the producers and executives for the great interest they have shown in our struggle to record in these past four years of our lives a picture from which we should receive ample profits. As records in psychology have proved over and over again, things We see remain in our minds a great deal longer than those things we read in books. The faculty not only played a most prominent part in this movie which We have been viewing but also set examples for us to respect. May We prove worthy of the hours they have spent, the sacrifices they have made, and may we all use the knowledge they have given us to our best advantage in the further production of the various scenes in our future.
