With financial problems nearly pr eventing its public- ation, the staff had to do some high prestidigitation using hats, printers, and salesmanship to make possible this printing. This annual. unlike its predecessors is a review for the year of the entire school — and not just a senior yearbook. It is almost exclu- sively pictorial and was printed by a special process. We wrote it. we like it. we think it ' s good. Now turn the page and see for yourself. The Editor

DEAN ' S MESSAGE A salutation from the Dean to the Class of 1941 would be incomplete if it did not include an appreciation of what you have accomplished for yourselves and for the College. Indeed this very opportunity of placing my message in a Year Book is through your initiative in providing this medium. You have demonstrated an ability to acquit yourselves creditably in the collegiate studies of the pharmacy program in competition with students of other units of the University. This not only reflects favorably on you but also on the College of Pharmacy. The fact that many of you must rely on your own efforts to finance this education makes the achievement all the greater. While the heavy study program limits extracurricular activities and the facilities of our building are not suitable for this important value of student life, you have persisted in your efforts to make college residence more than a period of study, important as this is. The publication of Redox and latterly the Pharma-Col are noteworthy examples of what can be done despite difficulties. In working together for the past four years I believe that we have both gained. our gain has been a store of knowledge which I hope will be of value. My gain has been the acquisition of another group of Alumni whom I hope will be friends and supporters of the College. If this hope be realized in years to come, I will be fully satisfied that we are on the way toward making the College more than a mere building. My best wishes for the future go to all of you and my interest in you will continue even though our meetings be not measured by class hours.
