Hi Dave, is there any way to get a closeup of the lapel pins?

Lookalike

The youngster in the left-front with the striped tie looks like a wee Matt Damon. He has a bit of a rascally look about him.

War

Little did they know that war was coming. Looking at this makes you wonder how many went and how many didn't come home.

["Little did they know"? They knew. Everyone knew. World War 2 started in 1939. The only uncertainty was when the United States would get involved. - Dave]

Lots to see!

The handwriting on the board is incredibly neat. The tie of the guy front, 2nd from left, is amazing. I wonder what colors are in it? Wild stuff.

Also, this was back in the day when the newspaper and yearbook teams had to know typesetting!

[You'd have to know typesetting if you did the printing yourself. - Dave]
