We present to you, the Student Body, this, the 1940 Chanticleer. For nine months we have photo- graphed, written, rephotographed and rewritten, in .in effort to preserve for you, through the media of pictures and type, the story of a year at Duke. To us the events of this particular year are unique. Some have seemed important, some of only passing value, but the joys and sorrows we experienced ran never be relived except in our memories. We want you to see this year in retrospect, not as a mere record of events, but as a warm and living record of a most important period in our lives. With this in mind, we present the information and pictures that we think will truthfully represent col- lege life from the student ' s point of view. Our story is told in as informal a manner as we have been able to tell it, for we believe that only in this way can the real spirit and atmosphere of our school be shown. For our theme — if theme there is — we have chosen this year at Duke. Our sincere aim has been to make this a student ' s book — one that each of you can feel is truly representative and cosmopolitan. As the time of its appearance draws near, we of the staff are filled with trepidation. While all through the year we have wanted to surpass our predecessors. Now, if in your opinion we have been able to maintain the already high standard set by previous CHANTICLEERS, then we arc happy. It is our sincere hope that you will get the enjoyment from it that we have worked for, and that we have gotten from our work.
