li wa of profane N Iune 7, l94l, a cornerstone was laid. Upon that stone a building has risen. Upon it too the theme of this year's DONNYBROOK has been founded, for that cornerstone at Towson represents a changing order of things. lt represents the end of those years when the campus meant only autumn picnicking, May Day, and Retreat. lt marks the beginning of a new and greater Goucher. Most of those present at the ceremony of the seventh had to rest content with their glimpse of a structure in embryo. XV e, on the other hand, were more fortunate. From time to time we have turned down the Dulaney Valley Road and jolted over the dirt path leading to the new dormitory. At first there was only raw earth yawning here, a network of scaffolding, and a cornerstone perched so high that in order to sit upon it we had to clamber up five feet. As the building rose, however, the earth surged upwards and the cornerstone nestled on the ground. Around it framework and a few bricks traced the outline of a butterfly's wing. To the far left the pattern was repeated and between stretched the under- nourished body. Gradually, of course, this bare skeleton was coaxed into more robust health. VV hat had once seemed an X-ray of a building took on solidarity as brick and cement replaced the scaffolding. XVindow frames were taken from the neat stacks in the reception room and inserted. Under the first floor two boilers, like tell-tale hearts, were buried. Other vital organs were added-a water main and a gas line. By the opening of college it seemed to us that the new dorm had risen as miraculously as the wonderful beanstalk. VVatching the building grow in this way, we found that it was as real to us as Alfheim or Katy. XfVC felt a certain excitement in living through a transitional stage in Coucher history, continuing in the city as before, and at the same time keeping pace with events in Towson.
