TR ,LIB UR As we attempt once more to evaluate the school year 1944-45 in terms of the publication of the TROUBADOUR, We realize more than ever that this year's book was probably influenced more by the War than any other to appear previously. Little 'trouble was encountered this year in se- curing either film or flashbulbs, but in lanuary a new menace appeared. In the face of a severe paper shortage, it became increasingly difficult to obtain any photographic printing paper. For a time it seemed that there would not be enough to include all the pictures which had been planned for the book. Finally we lucked through, although the situ- ation had prevented our meeting the engraving dead- line. ' By the time We did manage to get all the pic- tures in to the engraver, his Work was so pressed that We had to release a statement to the student body that it was probable that the TROUBADOUR Would not be released until after the close of school. As I Write this, I still do not know just when this will be read by the students, but I hope that it will be read at some time. On the brighter side of the picture, a capable staff was rounded up by both the editorial and busi- ness staffs early in the year, and with their assist- ance advertising and editorial copy were prepared with little difficulty. For the first time in a number of years a large majority of the pictures Were made by students for the TROUBADOUR. Two photographers were in- cluded on the staff, and to them is due a large por- tion of the credit for the pictures used. Also for the first time this year most of the art Work included in the book was done by students. The editors Wish to express appreciation to Mrs. Louis Freund, instructor in art, for her assistance With this Work, and in selecting material. To numerous other individuals off the campus and on, most of the credit is due for the success of this year's TROUBADOUR. The editors accept, and rightly so, all blame for any mistakes contained herein, and apportion the credit upon those individu- als whose pictures appear on the opposite page, and those off the campus whose influence lies heavily upon the book, but who are not pictured here. Thanks to all of them are not enough. Syiusim if-ss f f-M -1 M fr -+4 M- Bi 3 ADA RYLAND Editor IAMES CHRISTIE Business Manager gravit- E .Sf 55 QEHW is: as rf 4 E s
