FOREWORD ITH TIllS, the seventy-eighth i s s u e, the I'IAMIL'1'0NIAN becomes for the time being a senior annual. ff combination of circumstances, mainly' financial, brought about this situation. However, we of the Class of 1936 did not wish to leave Haniilton without some record of our enjoyable four years spent on the Hill, and we did not wan! to be the class to discontinue the custom of pub- lishing a year book. We who have had the task of getting this book out can make no pretensions to originality or radi- cal changes. Hamilton's traditions extend to her publications and the HAMIL'l'ONIAN is no excep- tion. lVe have followed the custom of the past in most departments, limiting our changes to those of makeup and arrangement of material. life have tried to include all worthwhile things and we hope that nothing essential has been omitted. The main reason for the conventional book is the small bud- get on which HAMILTONIAN staffs must operate. lVe do believe that the book, iu spite of its short- comings, does succeed in its main purpose, that of providing a record, both photographic and typo- graphic, of the Class of 1936. For a number of years the value of annuals has been ti debatable question but 'we believe they do have some worth to the Hamilton graduate. lVe would like to see the HAMILTONIAN reestab- lished as a junior annual but that problem rests with the lower classes. We have at least kept the tradition of a HAMILTONIAN alive and we hope that others will see fit to follow the example of their predecessors. lVith this we offer you the 1936 HAMILTONIAN.
