To My Classmates:
Four years ago I was honored by being
your first class president and was able to
speak to you in person. I wish that it were
possible for me to be there now but since it
isn't I want to send this message to you, my
class.
During your period the most drastic
changes in the history of our college have
taken place. You were the leaders and have
shown a spirit that we on the fighting fronts
are proud of. It would be unwise for me to
condemn or commend any of you for the side
you took but it is the fact that you fought
for what you thought was right that makes
me proud of you. Without such a spirit we,
as a nation, could not have become so great.
You. a wartime class, have had to sac-
rifice many things�among these being the
loss of many members of the class, and the
job of doing without many of the luxuries
of life. However, there is no need in my
telling you what sacrifices you have made.
You realize it more than I.
In writing this I believe that I am ex-
pressing the sentiments that many of us in
the service feel. We. in our small way. are
doing what we can to bring peace and free-
dom to the world. Alone we cannot do this,
but with the help and cooperation of all,
such a task can he accomplished.
Some day I hope to see all of you again
because I will always feel that I am a part
of you. Again I express my regrets in not
being there to see you graduate. So with
a heavy feeling in my heart, from across the
Pacific I extend to each of you my heartiest
congratulations and wish you the best pos-
sible luck and success.
Most Sincerely,

capacity for learning physics. A
test constructed here is then given to
diagnose how well a man has main-
tained his study skills such as out-
lining, reviewing, over-learning, de-
fining terms, taking notes and read-
ing.
The men receive three achievement
testa including the standard Coopera-
te 1'hysics and English Tests and
a special constructed by the Mathe-
matics Department to measure the
trainee's knowledge of algebra and
trigonometry. Although 93 per cent
I of the men assigned here to date have
had college mathematics, some have
shown in their mathematics achieve-
ment tests that they have forgotten
how to do simple arithmetic prob-
lems. Others still remember their
spherical trigonometry, but the aver
age trainee does correctly only 44
per cent of his mathematics prob-
lems.
As the last step before getting the

With a clear picture of their weak-
nesses and strength, and with the
benefit of special coaching and

fifty-two men assigned to the unit
were held to be in need of sixteen
weeks i refresher work, but by ap-
plication under the school's flexible
program six cut their time in the
unit to eight weeks.

JIMMY WARRKN
Jimmy really loves acting and is
really goad at it. He will admit,
however, that it's lots of work �
more than most .people realize. Dra-
matics should be on every campus,
in Jimmy's opinion, for several good
reasons; one of the main reasons is
the development of poise and easy
stage control that acting necessarily
brings to those who stick with it.
This should be a vital factor in
helping potential teachers and in-
structors, such as the ECTC stu-
dents.
Jimmy is a veteran of the "foot-
light parauo having been in more
plays than he can remember. One
