With Peace comes opportunity, — Remember Football 1945! war: the heroes who will make the peace lasting this time. There lies our task as we face the world. May some of our class be numbered among these heroes ' What occurs in the following pages, incidentally, is not entirely our fault. What you did to Weaver and vice versa we have tried faithfully to record with pen. camera, and paint brush. We hope you ' ll enjoy it.

DEDICATION... The tumult and the shouting dies. The captains and the kings depart: Still stands Thine ancient sacrifice. An humble and a contrite heart. Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet.

We can only faintly comprehend and mutely wonder at what these men and women have gone through. We lift our hands to salute them —and suddenly feel unequal to the task. Praises cannot be sung for such valor. Yet lest we forget their mighty work, we humbly dedicate this book to all Weaver boys and girls who bravely carried the colors of their country in time of war. With equal reverence, we dedicate this book also to a leader of our nation, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who gave his life that this might be a better world for us. 6
