The Editor: 'BK JACK THOMAS Editor nz Clazef 1944 Cupola To you, my friend at Benson, I'd like to say that my regard for you goes deepg the memories of my days at Benson will come back time and again, and always you will be in those memories. Among the recollections of my early days at Benson is the re- membrance that when I was a freshman, I dared to hope that one day when I became a senior, I might edit the class annual. That day is here, and this is that yearbook. Because the editing of the Cupola has meant much to me, I am offering it to you with mixed feeling. Most of all, I hope that you will like the annual, that it will come to your hands over and over again to remind you of the days you spent at Benson. There is the hope too, that you may understand that war's restraining hand has limited much I wanted to give you. Yet, regardless of those restrictions, the countless number of hours that have been spent in planning and providing this annual have carried with them a quiet gratitude that this task was mine. Never has an editor been supported by a liner staff. With- out their fellowship, their understanding, their untiring efforts, their complete unity of thought and purpose, this yearbook could not have been published. To them goes my sincere appreciation. There is much more I would like to say. Words, however, are elusive, and space limited. Perhaps it is all summed up when I Silyi Here is your Cupola. I hope you will like it. Jud jdomaa X je . i I ' K A Letter P3 jg From C7 spa
