Le PPPPILE Ls THE NEW LOOK Poe was the word we thought would best describe the 1951 Makio. From the start our planning was guided by the principle that this year's Makio must be different. After careful study we discovered that there are only two basic for- mats for yearbooks: traditional and narrative. The former places great emphasis upon departmental- ization; the latter throws all care to the wind and attempts to tell a story in running fashion with pictures and stories tossed in to best advantage. In past years the Makio has been too well known for its standardization and lack-lustre appearance. It isn't the fault of any individual but is, rather, the result of hide-bound tradition. An abrupt change would, we felt, be too drastic and might not be greeted favorably by the student body. Therefore, we compromised and decided to strike a median. You will find that the portraits have been shifted to the back of the book (page 366), along with the administration and college sections. A portrait index has been provided for your convenience. A table of contents should speed your finding of any particular section that is desired. Two new sections have been added. Traditions will start your memory churning. A graphic account is in this section telling of May Week festivities; Dad's Day and Homecoming are covered, too. The newest feature of all is the Campus Life section which tells all. You may be seeing yourself study- ing, if that's possible, or sipping beverages'’ at Larry's or the ''Berg. If you're lucky you'll be out on a date or at a football game. This alone will make the 1951 Futuramic'’’ Makio good reading. We take great pride in the art theme of the book, too. It's all original. Barbara Guy handled the art beautifully and gave us the streamlined sweep that we asked for. If you don't agree that this year's Makio has a moving effect throughout its pages, come in to see us and we'll give back your receipt but not your money or another book. One more thing and then you can go ahead. The aerial view, the half-page table of contents, and the cutout end-sheet were ideas borrowed from Flair magazine. We think they're good gimmicks, nevertheless. The other changes you'll have to uncover for yourself because we haven't had time to read the whole Makio either. On your way, friend, and happy EDITOR'S NOTE Special thanks is due the many friends and associates who have helped in the production of the 1951 Makio.

Jevelopment Through the efforts of the Research Foundation, directed by Dr. James S. Owens, and loyal alumni supporters of the Development Fund, the research projects are receiving a tre- mendous boost. The University’s objectives are summed up in the words of Dr. Alpheas W. Smith, Research Foundation president and dean emeritus of the Graduate School, “An active research program directed by creative scholars is essen- tial for the training of those leaders who can make sure that the achievements of each generation exceed those of the pre- ceding generation.” Gentlemen—we, the students, salute you.
