4 w w Xr . , ' X FOREWORD t It has been the sincere hope of the 1936 Capi- toline staff to depict the student body in its colorful activities from the freshman year to graduation, culminating the high school career. Vachel Lindsay ' s name was brought again into the public eye by the dedicatory ceremonies at the Vachel Lindsay Memorial Bridge and Memorial Statue at Lake Springfield last summer, in which many students participated. We hope further to increase the appreciation of his art by our treatment of his more important works in this Capitoline of 1936. — The Editors.
