'CPI Dean 'S Greeting: Many years after the close of the Civil War, a big reunion of Confederate veterans was held. At this reunion, almost every question was prefaced with the phrase, Do you re- member . . .?,' Shiloh, Cold Harbor, Gettysburg . . . Do you remem- ber? Do you remember the night we hid in a barn while F ederals prowled around so close we could hear .them talk? Do you remember when . . .? Those gray-headed veterans had a good time recalling old times, memories of days gone by. Many years after the close of this 1949-50 school year, you may turn the pages of your Con-Rah! and say, I remember! I remember when my room-mate and I . . .', In our old age, memories help keep us young. I hope you will always remember the good things about your 194-9-50 school year at Connors. Sure, I know you had some disappointments and heartaches too. We all did. But that's just part of life. I hope this splendid edition of the Con-Rah! will help you recall those treasured memories of days gone by. And as you turn the pages, I hope you can smile and say, Good old 1949-50 at Connors! I remember . . .U 0

Sponsor of the Con-Rah! CLAIRE HARRISON Dean of Women and Sponsor of the Con-Rah! Instructor in Mathematics A yearbook is an awesome thing. In it are pictures of peo- ple as they are today. Tomorrow they may look queer -- skirts too long, hair too short-this one fat, that one thin -a crew-cut instead of a handsome looking one-a five o'clock shadow instead of that man of distinction look- but-it's wonderful! Ah sweet mystery of life and love that sets me dreaming seemed to be the theme song of so many of you. May you never lose the power to dream, to hope, to achieve, and may you look through these pages with pleas- ure as you recall the fine friendships you made here. Sincerely, I-E fguw .
