Haverford is more. It is the griping about the food, walking through the Ginko fruit outside of Founders, breakfast at 8:09 each morning. President White ' s jokes in Collection, and all night arguments about anything from Haverford student government elections to philosophy. It is the race to make it to Bryn Mawr by 2:00 A.M. The parties in Lloyd and the bell in Founders ringing to announce a football victory as you walk through the rustling leaves away from Walton Field. Haverford means a walk every Thursday to Meet- ing House for an hour of contemplation or reading whichever the case might be. It means Cap Harris on the steps of Roberts ushering late-comers to Collection. Haverford means two hours in the Physics lab or an evening seminar at the home of a professor, or the many trips to the library when the dormitory is too noisy to study. Haverford is the excitement over an intramural basketball game, and the desire to beat Swarthmore whether it be in volleyball or varsity football. It is Pop Haddleton bracing against the wind, sending his boys through the paces around the track while Bill Docherty shows prospective linemen how to tackle. It is a cricket match on Cope Field. But most important, Haverford is the process of growth. It is change from a freshman who sees a strange place for the first time and meets strange people from all over the world, and then leaves four years later with friends and joyful days behind him. Haverford is the growth of minds, a finding of knowl- edge, and an understanding of those things learned both in and out of the classroom. It is a preparation for life ahead, whether you plan to be a business- man or doctor, a teacher or minister. Here is the story of Haverford.

JhinqA THAT NEVER CHANGE Each semester the Haverford student changes his courses and schedule. But there are two things in his schedule that never change. These are Collection and Fifth Day Meeting. Each Tuesday the entire student body gathers in Roberts to hear a speaker on politics, religion, philosophy, or even athletics. And each Thurs- day the students take the Ginko bordered path over the bridge to Meeting. Above: Collection ad- journed. Upper right: Holy Trinity. Lower right: On the way back from Meeting.
