NE day last October, seven very excited Seniors learned that they were to compose the COLBYAN staff. Dining at Seven Hearths with Mr. and Mrs. Thompson, they enthusiastically discussed plans for a unique yearbook that could rightfully be called the best yearbook ever. With little knowledge of the work in store for them, they conferred with the printer and engraver, who revealed many problems involved be- fore a yearbook could be completed. The great task of publishing such a book was accomplished in many steps-the pictures and copy gradually took their proper places. We sincerely hope you will enjoy this COLBYAN as much as we have preparing it. f83l

The first performance of the year was a chapel program, which somewhat sur- prised the whole school. In February, came the annual combined concert with the Harvard University orchestra, alias the Pierian Soclality. We'll always remember their rendering of Jerome Kern's Showboat. Starting May Day week-end with a bang, the Prom concert on Friday night, varied slightly from the usual Pops concert, although there was still plenty of food to be had. Their off-campus celebration was a broadcast and the year's active program closed with the Commencement concert, in combi- nation with the glee club, 'll' P' rf? yay l34l
