This game of friendship will try your patience, b par you down to the lowest realm with pleas for m e rcy, and almost cause y ou to leave your very exlst­e ncc for som e happiness elsewhere. If you can but suppress such im­pulses, and courageously fight for "ruitful living-. your results will be -a better man.

To play t h c game of !lfe you must take dares. Dal'e to be a better p e rson phYSically, mentally morally. You are onc stride ahead of the opposing forces if you can wili to be better than you are. If yOU foreve r reach outward and up­ward and deman<l worthy accept­a nces, your game of life is half won without the 'actual combat.

Truly, life is a game. The stakes are very high . Can you show your sporting qualities and gain the laurels of a gallant victory?

From One of Our Boys Overt here SISgt. Harry Hill '42

Dear Graduates:

This shOUld be a gru,duatlon card. but hp.re in Germany cards of all .sOrts are temporarily forgotten. FOI'emost" In our minds Is the de­Sire to erase forever the .warIlke a ttitude of the German people.

Still, In spite of this, many of us had time to think of the year when we ma<le our 'Last Stand' at State. This memory brings to mind the class of '45.

Yours is to be the real com­mence ment. You pass through the gates which lead from the Garden of Learning Into a world which must be reshaped, rcmodeled and then controlled. YOUI' job Is not only to reshape, remodpl, and gov­ern this world which war has turn­ed about. You must prepare:~ the little one s of your day to preserve and pass on to the coming genera­tions those things whlC'h Wf' fight for today, which you bull<l tomor­.. ow, and which they will live for In days to come.

It Is true that many of us have given the best years of our lives to the cause of the many freedoms, but this will not have been done In vain If you, the graduates of 19(5, climb to and 'beyond the helg"hts which we desired.

Fate cast before the graduates of my year the problems of war, of destruction of lives and property, and l ot her works of our modern civilization. Before you she casts the job of rebuilding; rebuilding In such a way that this happens no more. You are now finishing 'dear 01' State' and are therefore qualified to meet all difficulties. (Ask States' grads who arc In the Armed Forces.)

For the sake of those to whom this war has brought the pain of separation from their loved ones; for those to whom this war has brought Injury to body or mind; for those to whom this war meant saerlflee of profession so that war Industry might give to us at the front, men and machines, gune and bullets, ships and planes, you can not, yOU shall not fall.

Let this Commencement of 1945 be the "Green Light" of a new era for humanity.

Best wishes fOr success. S~Sgt. Harry HI1l '42

At least 20,000,000 persons are expected to swap jobs in 1945 And' 1946.

DRAMA FESTIVAL STIMULATING

By William Moore

Three one act plays offered by the freshman, sophomore, and jun­Ior classes und e r the sponsorship of the social committee were Im­mensely enjoyed on the night of April 20, In Banneker Hall. These presentations proved a valuable ex_ perience becauEe they were staged largely by the students themselves.

"Thank You Doctor," presented by th e freshman class under the guidance of Mr. W . A. Stanford, was a hilarious comedy. The plot was to foil the plans of a clever woman jewelry thief, ably portray­ed by Carrie StanEbury, by a dar­Ing and ingenious detective, Rich­ard Dawson. through the help of a young intelligent doctor, Royal Thomas. Supporters of the caEt were Frank Hebron, jeweler, and nurse, Helen Kane.

"Auf Wledersehn," a tragedy, was sponsored by Mrs. C. Lane, ad­"Iser of the sophomore class. The story was woven around the pere­cution of Jt'ws in Germany. Flor­ence Nutter gave a masterful por­trayal of Frelda, a persecuted· Jewess. Hazel Johnson was the shrt'wd Nazi Gestapo Captain. Oth­er performers were Corrine Gregg and Leroy Contee as German child­ren cared for by Freida; King An­derson, a Jew refugee from Gesta­po police; and Sylvia Wright, a Nazi soldier.

"For the Love of Michael," u. sophisticated comedy, was the jun­ior claEs' presentation sponsored by Miss M. G. Whiteside. Behind the footllghts were Amy Tun, Mich-ael's second wi f e; Emmaline Watts, Michael's first wife, and AI­veta Smith, .mother-In-Iaw.
