ti j J ii On the endsheets of this book you see ivhat we believe to be art exceptionally good aerial shot of The Citadel. There you see the barracks wherein we lived, the parade ground upon which we drilled, and drilled again. You see the fine new mess hall with its excellent equipment, and more praise to them, its excellent chefs. To the right of the parade ground you see the gymnasium, the football field, and the tennis courts whereon our teams strove for victory. In the immediate foreground, facing the parade ground, stands in peaceful splendor our chapel, whose influence we have all felt and respected. At the left of our campus you see Bond Hall, wherein we attended classes and wherein the destinies of our school are ably guided by General Summerall. our President and our friend. In the rear of Bond Hall, looking toward the river bank, you will see, clustered in the trees that shade them, the homes of our faculty members. Beyond flows the stately Ashley River, on whose waters our nautically minded cadets swiftly sailed their sleek craft. Far beyond in the background those who know Charleston and its surrounding country can recognize the country club on Wappoo Cut. where many of us have enjoyed a round of golf. Within these confines we have lived, have carried on the routine hap- penings of our cadet life and experienced much that is dear and important to us. You have seen the location; may the pages of this book, from this point forward, recall to your mind the kaleidoscopic events which made up our life as cadets. Insofar as the atmosphere of a military school permits informality, that far have we gone to present the story of this year at The Citadel.
