Jhe bells call the students The Manchester College enrollment for the year 1944-45 was 410 — women 315, men 95. Of this fact most of us have been acutely aware, for not only has it been the favorite joke of every chapel speaker, but it has been the disgust of every co-ed and the cause of no end of bewilderment to every male enrolled. It has brought about absurdities and difficult situations; situations which we have laughed at and griped about simultaneously. We have gotten used to having 3 ' 2 women for every man. We can go dateless to any number of banquets without the slightest hesitation, and only the very unusual co-ed rates that coveted trip to the Ritz on Saturday night. Our coke dates are with the girls in the gang and our conversation is about the man who sends us that daily letter. Yes, the enroll- ment has played funny tricks with us this year. But we wouldn ' t want to leave the impression that this is a strictly feminine school. We do have men, and although they can ' t boast a numerical balance with the co-eds, they still hold and execute the important campus offices. All in all, ours is an interesting, well integrated, and wholesome student body that matriculates here at Manchester, heeding the hourly call of the bells. Youth hath many charms Hath many joys and much delight; Even its doubts and vague alarms By contrast make it bright. -Arnold Page twenty-two
