CL SS OF19 IT WAS a windy day in May when we followed Dr. Darlingfs billowing robe down the driveway, across North Main, and into the gymnasium. lt was all over. No longer could we cut early classes because we felt more like sleeping, or pracrastinate for three months and make it up in thirty-six sleepless hours, or sit in the Grill all afternoon, or talk on and on about the things we would do when we had graduated. Now the time for doing had arrived and as we stood there and laughed at each other in our caps and gowns, we weren't at all sure it would be so easy. In our four years at Allegheny a lot had happened. The shaded, twisting little road in front of Bentley had become a modern, impersonal drive. Crumbling Hulings Hall had vanished into the labyrinth that is Brooks and Walker. J oe College had changed his own battered jacket for a uniform, and his place has been taken by the Army Air Corps. All this and many other intangible things have changed, but it is still the same college to which we came as eager freshmen. 43 We can close our eyes and remember charge accounts at Docfs, and the 'flumpin' ,liven and Gln The Moodf, and our Caflisch boys in blue jeans and corduroy pork pies, and Singers trips to New York City, and the loggia, and lots of people we haven't seen for years. And friend- ships with professors, and Spring Parties with white coats and rows of cars, and class banquets, and pins we have taken or given away. These have made this college and the past four years important to us and in the years to come will hold us close to those of you who remain. But we have closed our books and have taken our memories with us. We leave you a school with the Air Corps and the Grill and the new Brooks entrance and a new set of seniors who will try, just as we did, to be sophisticated and unafraid, new seniors who will be scared, just as we are, about the day after a ceremony in May. But it has been Wonderful fun, and we have memories, experiences, friends-enough to last a life- time.
