HOW WILL you CHOOSE? Men fight when there is no other way According to their leaders. We must build wide roads to the house oj peace And show the common people the path that leads away from killing. The cynics sneer and say, It has never been done hefore.” Do you think to do it now? Yet is it true that since men had always seen with candles, They never could know a better light? Man never had flown. His crude-made wings had always failed. Yet now he soars on brown and silver wings. So much more can we make peace where war has been. Miracles will not come down Before our waiting eyes. We must pay the price of vigilance for liberty And add the price of work and faith and selflessness for peace. Is it too great a price to pay for life. For bodies that stand straight and strong And minds unwarped by fear? Or would you rather pay the price of war? We have these choices . . . only two . . . To give ourselves to make a better world Or sit idly by in selfish apathy Not caring about the fate of fellow men And finding war is our reward. How will you choose? 6 —Marian Bakkr. we cannot oui-RRfii the world Since the beginning of time, man has fought man—at first with his bare hands, and later with clubs, swords, ships, muskets, guns, submarines, airplanes, rockets, and finally with the atomic bomb. In spite of the fact that some nations credit themselves with the power to produce better fighting men and materials, they have always met similar and sometimes superior fighting equipment. The man who first discovered the bow and arrow probably thought he had such a terrible weapon that no man dare attack him, and therefore he would end all wars with this new horrible weapon. Today science is advancing more rapidly than are our political and humanitarian associations; and some day there may be a weapon that will make the modern atomic bomb seem as old-fashioned and futile as the bow and arrow does to us today. There is no limit to the horrible weapons that modern scientists are capable of developing; and as long as there is fear of war, they will be developed. We cannot prevent war by the threat to other nations that we have the weapons to wipe them off the earth. In this new atomic age the big powers are not the only threat to world peace. Small nations, too, will be able to produce powerful weapons that can destroy a whole city, or perhaps a whole country with one blow. Winning a war will be a matter of who strikes first, not who is the most powerful. We cannot hope to keep the atomic bomb a secret! Since we had to bomb German scientists out to prevent them from developing it first, how can we prevent them from discovering it in peace? We have only one hope for world peace. Now is the time to make it a reality. After the next war there might be no America to talk about peace, to say nothing about keeping peace. Remember that the United States was once divided; the North was fighting the South just as the Allies were fighting the Axis. We found that civil wars did not pay just as we found that world wars do not pay. We united America after the Civil War; why can't we unite the world after this war? We found that the only way to have a peaceful country was to have a united country. We will find that the only way to have a peaceful world will be to have a united world. We MUST get along with all other nations, we MUST treat other countries as if they were states in the United Nations of the World. We did not become a United States by having each state armed and threatening the next state to keep its peace or be blown to bits. We united by considering not just our own state but the welfare of the country as a whole. Yes, we had arguments with each other; some states wanted unfair laws to satisfy their selfish desires; but we still stuck together—and developed a co-operative and peaceful country. Each state had to make concessions to the next state, and the world will have to be run on the same co-operating policy. Yes, world co-operation, not national arming and threatening notes, is the only way to a peaceful and united world. —Robert Tenney. C 0 n T E n T 8 B.

Transportation and communication make peoples living in the most distant points of the earth our near neighbors. Therefore, education must help develop an understanding that the welfare of each nation is dependent on the welfare of all other nations. We must learn to work together to utilize the human and natural resources of the world for the welfare of all peoples. Education must help develop an understanding that the differences of the peoples of the world are largely cultural differences. Undesirable cultural patterns may be changed through education. This means there is no superior race or superior nation. WALTER A. ANDERSON. Assistant Superintendent of Schools. Librarian: JANET LOCKART. Norse: ALICE ANGSf The library is the workshop of the school. It places the best of established thought and recent opinion in any field at the disposal of every pupil and teacher. As medical science advances, people become more aware of the value of daily health habits. The school nurse gives senior girls the benefits of a home nursing course and wise advice to all seeking her counsel. Counselors: MALVA LOCKWOOD. JOSEPHA CON- TOSKI. When school enrollments doubled and trebled, there was an obvious need for individual guidance. The counselors labor to bring a close understanding between home and school and to adjust a pupil to his work. RDfniniSTRflTIVE PERSOnnEL Office Personnel: INEZ MAHONEY. FERN HUMPHREYS. ALICE EDBERG.

They contain the wisdom of the past distilled and preserved to instruct and to inspire all who read them. Teachers of English have the great responsibility of helping students to extend their horizons and to enlarge their interests in the cultural things that enrich life. They have the responsibility of leading students to appreciate the ideals that are our heritage from the past, our treasures of the present, and our hopes for the future. Books are the minted gold of the mind of man. Words have both power and magic. From their use or misuse, wars have been fought: civilizations have been destroyed; destinies of untold millions have been controlled. It was Adolf Hitler's facility in the use of words that spread his Nazi doctrine of race superiority throughout Germany. In the tragic days in England after Dunkerque it was Winston Churchill's great power of words that stirred Englishmen to the depths of their souls, roused their courage, reanimated their spirits, and saved England. 12 All the world's a siege.'

SCIENCE SUB dlfiTHEITIRTICS Science has done more than provide the material basis of the good life; it has directly fostered the spiritual values of humanism. To explain, science is both the outcome and the source of the habit of forming objective, disinterested judgments based upon exact evidence. Such a habit is of particular value in the formation of citizens for a free society. It opposes to the arbitrariness of authority and 'first principles the direct and continuing appeal to things as they are. Thus it develops the qualities of the free man. (Harvard Report). Ralph Barton Perry remarks in One World in the Making, The student should learn in the scientific classroom. that the good which science does depends on what is done with it by the human will; and that if science is to contribute to the peaceful and fruitful organization of mankind, it must serve under the supreme command of morality.

Human geography extends men’s acquaintance with the surface of the earth from the familiar regions where they live to distant and strange places, in order that these may become less distant and less strange. It creates a map and image of man's terrestrial domain which may be carried in the mind and referred to at will. Descriptive anthropology and sociology depict the customs, manners, and the diverse families of the one great human family. From history we learn of the life of mankind throughout recorded time, and of the interrelation of groups and nations. By studying it we are able to discern the enduring elements in the relations of people, but it must be honest and accurate, free from national prejudice and wishful thinking. Pierre Lanfrey in the nineteenth century said, It is no longer possible today for a historian to be national in any strict sense. His patriotism is simply love of the truth. He is not a man of any particular race or of any particular country. He is a citizen of all countries and he speaks in the name of all civilization. 14 Scionce Being Social JENNIE HISCOCK.

LflnGUflGES The ultimate educational value of knowing a foreign language is that it lets you into the workings of other human minds, like and unlike your own. It takes you out of your narrow local self and points out ways of seeing and feeling that cannot be perceived apart from the alien words that record the perception. The reason educated people in every country find themselves using foreign phrases in the midst of their own speech is that these expressions point to real things but are untranslatable. These locutions—whether expressive of feelings or ideas or objects—are the signs of the bigger ones, represented by a nation's literature, philosophy, or contributions to science and religion. This being so. the study of a language becomes the study of a people, and the notion of a language as a tool destroys itself: a tool is a dead unchanging thing; a language lives. A tool is for some ulterior purpose; a language exists as a world in itself.' JACQUES BARZUN. A Trip Through France—With Miss Hiscock as the talontod guide. 15 C 0 0 HI fl G HD 5 e ijj i n g Loarning the way to a man's heart. The civilization of a nation depends upon many factors, one of which is its standard of living. In the United States it is the wife and mother who determines the physical, spiritual, and cultural level of the American home. Harmonious relationships within a home are not accidental; they are the result of careful training and thoughtful planning by both father and mother. A strong nation is a nation of strong home ties, for home life is the very heart and strength of any country. Through the ages men and women have fought and died for their homes and their children. Consequently the welfare of a nation depends upon its home makers. Today young people are contributing to the future welfare of the world by securing the training necessary for a happy home life; the more proficient and skilled they are in all the domestic arts, the greater will be the health, the prosperity, and the happiness of a nation.

In very practical ways man has now been asked to increase his experience of the world at large. Our commercial and industrial relations are world wide: our commercial and industrial experts are found in all parts of the world. They are the invaluable ambassadors of good will to foreign countries; it is their work and their assistance in industry and commerce that can help to unite the peoples of the world. Industrial co-operation can become a power for better international relations, more stable economic conditions, and a greater understanding among all mankind. The prosperity and domestic economy of the United States are dependent upon the commercial and industrial conditions in foreign countries. Economic freedom and prosperity are necessary in all nations if political freedom and peace are to endure in a united world. Hesperian sports editor, SHERMAN KERNER, dictates to the Hosporian typists. DE LORES BARBER and NANCY JONES. 17 MAXINE BAKER . . . Art. art fine music Art and beauty are in the nature of a common language, uniting all nations, accessible to everyone. Jacques Bar-zun says that the reason why art is worth teaching is that it gives men the best sense of how rich, how diverse, how miraculous are the expressions of the human spirit through the ages. In times past in the United States taste in art was ruled by fashion, and fashion mirrored the values of contemporary society; but during recent years with our changing economic and social conditions the artist's appeal has shifted to an audience of greater proportions and of greater importance, the American people. Humanistic ideals began to replace the conception of an art belonging solely to a select few. Once again art is concerning itself with the proper study of mankind . . . man. Instead of studio themes, still life, and landscape, today art is picturing ordinary men and women in the environment and activities of daily life. This is a great advance in art for it creates a more favorable milieu for the better understanding of the peoples of other nations. As Mous-sorgsky says, Art is not an end in itself, but a means of addressing humanity. GEORGE KRIEGER, Band. Orchestra. Gloe Club, Radio Workshop; HARRY A. RANKS.

There are important qualities, over and above intellectual ability, which are necessary for an integrated and sound human being. The human body must be healthy, fit for work, able to carry out the purposes of the mind. While traditionally man has been viewed as primarily a rational animal, his unconscious desires and sentiments sometimes becloud and sway his reason. Yet passions, although dangerous because primitive and even savage, are a source of strength if properly guided; they supply the driving forces for achievement. According to the ancient myth, reason is the charioteer that directs but is not the horse that pulls the chariot. In the complete man we look for initiative, zest and interest, strength of resolution, driving power. — all qualities that can be trained by physical education classes and activities.

The stream that courses in my veins and yours springs from the infinite. Its ebb and flow are governed by a spirit that endures eternally. I go along the street, and where a thousand men, some weak, some strong, master and servant, kings and subjects meet, I find my kith and kin. These folk belong to me. For this I know and share the pride my brother feels for some fine end attained. His shame is mine, his hurt is pain to me, since blood and brotherhood are not denied. The stream flows on and will not be restrained, shaping its channel to infinity. One World by C. M. A.

JflnUflRY CLASS OF 1946 Although the January class of 1946 was the smallest in the history of West High School, it was not lacking in ability. The following awards were made to members of the class: Rolland White, the Bausch and Lomb Award for excellence in science: Gene Larson, the Hope McDonald Award for achievements in the study of World Affairs: Rosemary Rollins, the D. A. R. Award for scholarship, character, leadership, and service: Tom Ohno, the Star-Journal Award for outstanding leadership and service to the school: Dave Wells, the West High School Award For unselfish devotion of much time and work in school organizations. Twenty-two boys from this class were granted their diplomas while serving in the armed forces of the United States. The theme of the Commencement Program was One World—The Road to Peace. Eugene Adams, Marilyn Lasley and Ruth Scharmann gave speeches on the political, economic, and cultural bases of union. Tom Ohno's subject was the Races of Mankind—Brothers All. Willard E. Goslin, the Superintendent of Schools, in his farewell message to all senior classes said, The only real foundation and the only substantial hope for progress in human relationships is that which comes from enlightened and educated people—people who understand the concepts of democracy and who realize the need for cooperative action. Effective education in the realm of human relations in the next decades may well be the deciding factor between chaos and civilization. IflflURRY CLASS ROLLAND WHITE. Valedictorian; VIRGINIA ESTES.

He learns the qualities that are necessary for leadership, the fundamentals of democracy, the responsibilities that he must live up to if he is to be a desirable citizen of that one world which can be said already to exist. G. A. A.—The objectives of the West High G. A. A. are to stimulate an interest in athletics for girls, to promote a spirit of play for play's sake. and to carry out the highest ideals of health and good sportsmanship through activities which develop stamina, endurance, and skill.

In this world we have to live with others and with ourselves; we need the virtues both of society and of solitude. Such an art as music cultivates the social skills. To sing in a choir or to play in an orchestra is to merge oneself with a larger and disciplined whole without, however, losing one’s own individuality. For it is by virtue of playing a definite and individual role that one contributes to the effectiveness of the organization. And inasmuch as in music there are no explicit ideas at all, there is no scope for controversy or dispute either. Thus the arts contribute to a welding of human beings whom other influences would pull apart. (Harvard Report). CHOIR First row. loft to right—Marion Hill. Waneta Opsall. Nancy McKirnan.

The emotional, mental, and physical are so closely related, so interdependent upon one another, that if the development of one, at the expense of the others, is too much emphasized the student becomes that much less balanced. In no sport are proficiency and physical fitness the only desirable objectives. The athlete must learn the true meaning of sportsmanship, which is that although winning a game is naturally desirable, in some instances defeat may be more noble than victory. To play a game with courage, with good will and respect toward the opponent, with an observance of all the rules, develops a sense of fair play and the realization that co-operation and teamwork are necessary, not only in athletics but in all aspects of life, where men work together for a common goal.

In the past the emphasis was misplaced and resulted in the cruel belief that might makes right. Today we realize that physical perfection is not an end in itself but a means to an end—the ability to enjoy a richer, fuller life. Formerly athletics for women were considered unladylike; female dress precluded any participation even if custom had approved. Today we realize that physical fitness is as important and essential in woman as in man. In this modern world women are in all vocations, manual and mental, doing work that requires physical strength, dexterity, and stamina:—all of which are developed by the Girls' Ahtletic Association activities.

Monotonous work produces boredom and weakness, but work alternating with rest periods produces a firm and elastic mind. The best kind of rest is a change of activity, in other words, some form of play. Play differs from work in that although it may be more strenuous, mentally and physically, more absorbing and exciting than work, it is free from a sense of responsibility. It must have no ulterior motives, such as the achievement of money or power. Play can be destructive or constructive, depending upon the meaning of the word to each person. The avocations a man chooses are as clearly indicative of his tastes, his mental and spiritual growth, his whole nature, as the vocation he selects. His play, his vital interests, his recreations should send him back to his work refreshed in body and mind, with new vigor, eagerness, and enthusiasm.

A HEAVED OF FAEEDOA1 Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; Where knowledge is free; Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls; Where words come out from the depth of truth; Where tireless stricing stretches its arms toward perfection; Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit; Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action— Into that heaven of freedom, my father, let my country awake. —Rabindranath Tagore, ''Gitanjali (1912) 73 LEDGfllEflTS a c h n o iu For the use of selections from copyright material, the editors are indebted to the following publishers and copyright proprietors: Current Books, Inc.—A.
