The usual result is that by the time the copy is due at the printers, all those who thought they had literary ability are aware of its absence, and the editor is found silently staring into the river. lust when everything looks blackest something else comes up, making all former troubles look Lilliputian. But suddenly things start to click and from chaos and confusion emerges the l94l KEY, and so the students get another annual with the usual pictures and the usual patter. Should some of the things on the following pages appear a little different, a bit unique, or a trifle humorous, know that a lighter style was thought to be of some small benefit to those who are facing life in none-too-happy times.

NORTH FROM VVOOSTER Looking back on four wing-footed years, nothing is as vivid in the minds of Seniors as the metamorphosis of the campus. Buildings have mushroomed over night. Where we once drove golf balls with a full swing we now would have difficulty in practicing our putting. Co-eds no longer share gymnasium space with the male contingent. They exult in their emancipation in the most modern of physical education buildings. From mud-puddle to swimming pool is the story of the natatorium, with its swim teams and splash parties-an important step in campus transition. What is it that the presence of a men's dorm adds to college life? We don't know, but it's both beneficial and welcome, and we're glad about Kohl Hall. A cozy cottage, newest addition to the campus setting, houses a sorority, other co-eds, and marks the begin- ning of a plan to locate all sororities on the campus. This comprehensive mental snapshot of a campus in transition should include, besides new buildings, new professors, new trees, new walks, new ways, and a new spirit. PGVVER HOUSE
