i I L Tie ' u i-'-A iusine s Manager TIGGETT L. KARNEY Eolitor DAWD SAGE SEMINCLE THE first post-war Seminole! The first Seminole of the Atomic Age! What a production is was to be. Each copy completely equipped with hot and cold running water, built-in bar and refrigerator, push-button tuning, retract- able landing gear, and countless other marvels which are the promise of a new age. lt was wonderful, but it never happened. lnstead, the l945 Seminole looks suspiciously like past yearbooks. There are no gold-plated covers, no eighteen color plates, not even air conditioning. Most of the fine plans disintegrated even before they hit the bottom of the wastepaper basket. There is no paper, they told us, no metal, no labor, no material for covers, in short, no nuttin '. 'Take what you get, they told us, and this is what we got. lt took a lot of work to get it though, and the Staff, imbued to a man with the spirit of the Alomic Age, deserve a good word, Everyone worked hard, and the machine rolled on like a well-oiled turtle. Things were somewhat complicated by the fact that various individuals became drafted, discharged, ill, married, engaged, and disengaged. Frequent visits by distinguished per- sonages highlighted the year's work, although they invariably discovered that they had wandered into the wrong office. The important thing of course, is that the l945 Seminole did emerge from the morass. lt was hard work, but fun nevertheless, and the credit goes to the boys whose names appear on the editorial and business staffs on the following two pages.
