LJTJTJTJTJTTJTJTJTJTJTJTJ LTIJ 1J PREFACE F COURSE we realize that no annual can ever approach a reflection of college life as it really is. Only a cinematograph machine could do that and then only if the subjects were caught while unaware they were being photographed. At best the material contained in a year book can act only as an incentive for the recollection of life in the college as it was lived. Very much the same sort of glamour hangs about an annual as about a framed picture. The picture centers our view on a particular spot marked off by the frame but we always wonder what ex- tends beyond — could we but see. An annual represents a static point in college organization, generally at the peak of activity, that is all. You yourself must supply the rest. As for the art theme, there is none. It was our original in- tentions to make it modern; but in studying the modern motif we were led to the classic and finally we were led to adopt a middle ground of classic simplicity and modem impressionism. We have attempted to make the whole background of the book atmospheric. If any symbolic meaning can be attached to any of the executions, well and good. If not, consider them decora- tive. In spite of several handicaps we have attempted to produce the annual at a minimum of expense to the student and at the same time of superior artistic value. We hope that we have suc- ceeded at least in part. The cost to the student has been less this year than that of any previous year at the sacrifice of neither space nor quality of material. We express our thanks to those who have helped collect ma- terial for the Nineteen Twenty-nine ZENITH ; particularly to the students who were intrusted by the Seniors with the task of compiling their Senior write-ups. And to the college ad- ministration we wish to extend our sincerest appreciation for their co-operation, without which this book could not have been. The Staff. JTJTJXnjTJXTUTJTJTJTJTJTJXnJ
