FOREV ORD There once lived an old man, blind and alone, who lived and begged in the streets of Baghdad. One day a small boy approached the old man and in his inimitable childish fashion began rapidly telling the bent figure that one day, when he was grown, the world with all its beauty would be his; he would conquer lands and capture minds; and there would be nothing that he would not possess. When he was finished with his verbal daydreams, the child asked the old man if he had ever heard of anything quite so fine. The old one thought for a moment and then replied, My son, every man has his quest in life, his search for fulfillment. Man has different names for his goals, but when each is reached it is known as peace. Peace is universally recognized to be the primary search of each individual; and in realization of this, the universality of peace has been chosen to be the theme of this yearbook. Peace is not a simple thing; its ways are as diverse as man himself; its moments of anguish in search of the truth are as numerous as its moments of surging joy when the goal has been reached. Students of Creighton University come from all parts of the world, and their goals are as diverse as the lands from which they come; but they each come here in search of obtaining peace in their life ' s quest — and it is with this that we hope they will return home. One day when they are old and wise like the blind man, they will know this strange lady who has haunted mankind, Peace, and will appreciate just how universal is her lure. M.E.R.
