-.. Dr. Shields Warren, Chairman of the Executive Com- mittee. t i Fall Planning Conference. Arrives at University Field. Graduation has begune- hands tichet to gateleeeyer and runs to gate HG. . . . nobody here . . . I would have to be late . . . I hope the boys don't think that I'm not coming . . . lucky we reserved a block of seats . . . let's see, they should be somewhere in section G -oh, there they are! Hurriedly makes may to a seat amidst some eight or nine fellow grads-exchanges handshalres and a few quiclcly hushed whispers. Then sits bach and focuses his attention on the yield. Notices some of his old pro- fessors in the faculty section and smiles. Syealrer: . . . because of foresight and vigor, it has been possible to educate more people than ever before in the history of Boston University. . . . foresight, that's a good word . . . I can remember all the big plans 'icing made by the University in our senior year-JA DESIGN FOR THE FUTURE . . . they all seemed like beautiful dreams then . . . I don't think any of us realized just how much thought and planning was going into those dreams . . . and now how wonderfully they've come true . . . Womens Committee of Planning and Development.

ra Leons ngoinst e tree in front of University Union-Library. . . . this' is the place I have to go in and really see . . . Thoughts while wondering eround the Union. Lounges-Jllrese kids sure are a lucky bunch . . . what a place to sit and shoot the breeze . , . as a matter ci fact, I think I'll sit down and try out one of these easy chairs . . . this place must be ideal for the different clubs and activity committees to hold meetings . . . it's pretty quiet this afternoon-probably because of graduation . . . but I'11 bet if you were to sit here for one evening, you would be likely to meet half the University . . . u Uofeteriellbo bad I've eaten . . . I should have remembered that the Union has this new cafe- teria . . . I might almost have a bite anyway . . . but, oh . . . those 16 pounds! Library-We can all be very proud of this . . . somehow the library always seems to be the heart of a University . . . it'e amazing to see how smoothly all the individual libraries have been com- bined . . . an All-University Library. Outside egoin-fstorts nothing slowly up Uornrnonureotth Are. Turns around for another tooh at the Union-Library ond continues post UUE. Starts to cross intersection ot BU Bridge. . . . this corner is still one heck of a place to cross . , . no matter how much the University has changed . . . this corner never will . . . even two policemen can't handle 'all the traliic here . . . whew! glad to be across . . . this was always like swimming the English Channel-you never know whether you'd make it or not . . . this must have been the Admiral Building . . . I'd never recog- nine it . . . what a change from the old place . . . having the Fine Arts Center up here must provide a real creative stimulus for the rest of the University . . . a definite improvement . . . ch, oh, I didn' t realize it was so late . . . I'd better hurry along and get up to the field . . . too bad I didn't plan more time to look around . . . I could have spent all day browsing around the old campus . . .
