THE ASH BU Rl AN 9 EDITORIAL WE announce a change in our publication policy for this year. Twelve months ago today the annual issue was in the hands of the printers, and by closing day it was available to the boys. As a result of its preparation before the end of the school year however, several of the activities of the summer term were, of necessity, omitted. Such events will be reported in the early pages of this volume, which will include also an account of the final fixtures for 1948, and will be for- warded to subscribers as early as possible in the summer holidays. As we see it at present, this policy of publishing after the end of term, with no carry-over of news from the previous year, will be pur- sued in future. We feel that any disappointment occasioned by the delay will be more than made up by the inclusion of a complete year ' s record within one binding, with no items ' coldly furnished forth ' from the year before. Our last Editorial expressed satisfaction in the physical improve- ment to the School in the addition of a new dining-hall, the Symington Memorial, and suggested that several more additions might be on their way. Since then our hopes have been partially realized in the promise of another valuable and beautiful memorial for the near future. Also, a campaign for the raising of funds is at present in progress and will, we have every reason to believe, result in the new buildings so badly needed for our ever growing dormitory and classroom requirements. The School is now particularly fortunate in the calibre of its boy and Staff personnel; it would indeed be appropriate if the buildings could be brought up to an equivalent level of desirability. Let us hope that the consummation of this wish may soon be achieved. The past year has been a good one for Ashbury. Our enrolment has been at capacity, and all elements have worked together smoothly and efficiently; it is felt there has been even more than the usual degree of cooperation throughout the entire organization of the school. The results of the Senior Matriculation Examinations for 1947 were emin- ently satisfactory, and there is every prospect of duplicating them at the forthcoming session. May those of us who are returning in the autumn come back with the determination to make next year a still more successful one.
