Marts President THE PRESinENT ' S MESSAGE To BucKNELL Students of 1942: Once more L ' Agenda records a momentous year ' s history on the Bucknell campus. It has been a year which will he recorded and underscored on the pages of the final history of mankind. During the year, we saw war draw closer and closer, week by week, to challenge the security and the seclusion of our fine little Bucknell world. Then, one Sunday afternoon, we too sud- denly found ourselves part of the war. Since that afternoon we have been obliged to adjust our personal lives and the life of our college to this new over-whelming, relentless fact of war. It has been an exciting year; a year of broken hopes, but of new high devotion to the ideals of freedom and of human liberty. May this 1942 L ' Agenda be a permanent reminder to each of us of a year of courage, of honor, of self-discipline and of great steadfastness. Prcsidfiu Marls ireeliiif; Roy V,.
