DEDICAT OON after his arrival at Haverford, the freshman came to know a new J a nd awe-inspiring term: the Jitter Session . If he himself did not have History I , his roommate did, and he saw the man who shared his room suffer through a weekly oral examination on the facts of English History. The freshman soon found, however, that the originator of these Friday morning tests was the finest lecturer he had ever heard, the fairest pro- fessor he had ever known. Under the thorough training of Dr. William E. Lunt, the newcomer learned how to take adequate notes and how to study and digest them.

This year the graduating men are representatives from every class between the years 1940 and 1948. For that reason, no attempt has been made to write a class history. We leave that work for future RECORD Editors in years when the college has returned completely to normal. We feel that this should more rightly be called a pictorial record for the year 1946-1947 because of certain features which appear in the fol- lowing pages. The Inauguration, for example, has adequately been covered; a photographic calendar has been included. This book is an attempt to return the RECORD to the position it should occupy among extra-curricular activities here at Fiaverford. It Is not a perfect book, but It should provide the basis for a finer and fuller annual next year and In the years to come. The Editors
