Easter is late this year, so for the last two weeks the whole campus has been a riot with color: the yellow forsythia splashed against the vivid green of the hockey Held is lovely to look upon, and the showy red and yellow tulips on the hill continue to draw forth obs and abs from every passer-by. The violets and daffodils, immortalized in Mr. Yon's song, are still nodding in the grass across the Villa, and by the time the homeward-bound Mounties reach the lawn skirting thc now mirror-like lake, the sun has dipped behind the palisades and the birds are already sleepily singing their lullabies in thc trees overhead. Stopping by the Grotto, for a minute, they hear the Angelus chiming in the distance from the tower of Admin. After it is over, they watch some frogs hopping about among the lily pads on the lake, and listen to them croak tauntingly at one another in the warm evening.

NEW HORIZONS oPEN12D FOR Us with Eng- lish 311, the vital Newswriting course. . . . What did you slug that? we kept asking each other, hypnotized by the sound of our new vocabulary .... Through heads, to headlines, to features and interviews, we progressed, until one day in February we chose Alice johnson editor of the traditional junior issue put out for the Prom. Following this successful though brief whirl in journalistic society the 1947 staff withdrew for but a trice, then made headlines and history with an extra! for the first visit of our president, His Emi- nence, Francis Cardinal Spellman, after he was made cardinal. And Hnally we were editors .... New columns, new cuts, CR pins for all. We loved it every moment . . . loved think- ing up interesting features on everyday matters around us, loved headlining, though unit space wouldn't stretch, even for usp loved seeing those precious brown packages arrive from the Little Print and watching eager Cso we thoughtj underclassmen snatch up the shiny copies. . . Now we love memories . . . memories of whimsical sessions, spent putting an issue togetherg 'of coming in at 9 when we weren't due for class until 25 mem- ories of praise from the faculty for what we had enjoyed doingg memories of splendid co-operation and deeply-felt gratitude. V Our last Record went to press in De- cember. And back into our hearts for use whenever we think of it went love and memories of the time when we 1. .Ak were editors. . . .
