As the autumnal glories of Earlham's proud campus faded to the bare outline of winter and bloomed again into spring it be- came apparent that a new and bright day had descended upon the school. A crowded com- mons . . . well-filled library . . . dozens of autos . . . bigger jobs for the roll takers at chapel . . . two chow lines longer than ever . . . tracks through the snow to the cem . . . senate dances on Tuesdays . . . quality and quantity in football and basketball squads . . . the familiar outline of a boy and girl walking together . . . all bearing witness to the new birth of Earlham in coeducation. It became apparent, too, that much was to he done to restore our beloved Alma Mater to her pre-war standards of extra-curricular ex- cellence. For admittedly selfish reasons-but also because this would be the last year that Page len Susan Castato William Cullen Dennis would employ his own peculiar filing system in the office next to the faculty parlor, the students wanted to make the school year 1945-46 as nearly perfect as possible. During the war much was forgiven and much accepted as a matter of course. Earlham, for all her traditional serenity, found that she had a reconversion problem, too-she still has one, for her stately halls may echo the clatter of G. I. shoes for long months to come and her ancient trees may witness still the troubled reactions buried beneath surface calm. This year has been a busy and happy and challenging one for Earlham - a year of marked successes in many fields and definite progress along many lines. We have tried to capture the spirit and sincerity of Earlham- to truly reflect her greatness.
