BEFORE WE BEGIN THIS BOOK WILL PROBABLY MEAN LITTLE TO US THE FIRST TIME WE GLANCE THROUGH IT. BUT EACH ADDITIONAL TIME WE THUMB THROUGH ITS WORN PAGES, WE SHALL READ INTENTLY OF ALL OUR HIGH SCHOOL DAYS. THE JOYS AND SORROWS WE HAVE SHARED. THE FRIENDSHIPS WE HAVE FORMED WILL ALL COME BACK TO US MORE CLEARLY AS WE SMILINGLY GAZE UPON OUR FORMER CLASSES. ORGANIZATIONS. AND GENERAL ACTIVITIES. Donated by ROBERT GAYNOR. Chillicothe. O.

DEDICATED TO THE AMERICAN FLAG With respect so humble and true, the Class of Nineteen Hundred Forty-two dedicates this Waverly Novel to the Flag of the United States of America. In all its stirring colors the Flag symbolizes the spirit of every loyal American. Today the Flag is not only an incentive for us to carry on, but also an emblem of hope to all the conquered peoples of the world. Therefore it is imperative that our Flag weather the storm and continue to usher in the true American democratic way of life throughout the universe. Page Four Donated by SENIOR CLASS OF 1942

THE YEAR IN REVIEW The following pages will contain brief articles and pictures concerning classes, clubs, and candids of the year of 1941-42. Although details and some topics have been omitted, one can guess the general atmosphere of our school in summer, winter, spring and fall. PERSONALITIES AND DEEDS Here within are found our leaders of fields and their accomplishments. Among them are the Board of Education, faculty, senior personalities and activities, and underclassmen. Also included are the deeds of the students. These are composed of our musical department, football and basketball teams, and all our clubs, plus some interesting snaps. As this is the last annual for the duration of the war, we suggest that you keep this annual among your prized possessions as a reminder of your school days and fellow mates during this school year, 1941-1942. When first this Annual's days are seen, Keep its pages neat and clean Of dirt and gum and prints as made by baby's thumb. This book is a reminder of days long past, And though fond memories keep fading fast, Just turn the leaves and wander back Through the years of forgotten face and missing fact. And you'll find the days of long ago Will come rushing back with ebb and flow.
