CAROLYN BLACK, Secretary FORMAN BULLOCK, Treasurer CHARLES ELLIOTT, VERA LEE HAMPSON . ' t a Preszdent Vtce-President June 9. 1947-not a day to go down in history. Just a day when another senior class graduated from Alle- gheny College. But to us it was one of the most important days in our lives, for we were that class. Like the sound of a train whistle in the nightd frightening, a little sad, yet exciting. That was what that day in June meant to us. It had happened to others. Now it was our turn. We were saying goodbye to four years of our livesvto happy times and disappointing times, to dull times and zestful times, to friendships and inspirations and trees and buildings and people. What would become of us? Would one or two be- come truly great? Would others be successful in their chosen careers? Would Isome send their children to Allegheny in the years to come? We hoped that all would live rich, busy lives made richer and more interesting by the four years that had so suddenly come to an end in one day, one hour. And because it was not possible that we should all escape tragedy and despair, we wished with all our hearts that the Allegheny years would make us brave and under- standing and philosophical. These thoughts were in our minds. But most of all we were reminiscingerecalling classes and lectures we would never forget, remembering dances and carnivals and Boutsson outings, thinking of books we had read and long talks that lasted well into the night. Yes, todayethat day in Junee-was a day for look- ing back, for pasting all the pictures in the right places in our Allegheny scrapbook, for looking over souvenlrs. Tomorrow we would put the scrapbook on the shelf and throw away the old sports programs, the paperS we had written and the withered consages. Today we would look back. There would be time enough to look ahead tomorrow.
