'Tis all a Chequer-board of Nights and Days Where Destiny with Men for Pieces plays, Hither and thither moves, and mates, and slays, And one by one back in the Closet lays. -The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam Our four years at ETH5 have been a Chequer-board of Nights and Days, a pat- tern of sunshine and shadow, elation and de- pression, happy and sad memories. Such was the background against which we played this round in the tournament of life. It has been an intricate game, and, like chess, full of obscure strategy. Not all our moves have been right or well thought aut, but we have done our best to play according to the rules. As we think back over these cru- cial plays, we see them through the symbol- ism of the pieces of chess. Because of the significance which we at ETHS attach to moral and spiritual values, we shall let the Bishop represent our admin- istration, the Pawn, commonplace yet full of promise, our classes, the Knight, a symbol of youth and courage, our sports, the Castle, a far-reaching and powerful piece, our activ- ities, and last of all, the King and Queen, governing the game, will represent us, the graduating class. In this i954 Key, let us walk back over the board, pausing to observe, to remember, and perhaps to learn. For though we lay aside these pieces now, the rest of the tournament remains before us.
