Before you lies your 1941 Kentian! Fresh off the press and resplendent in its blue and silver cover! You eagerly plunge into your book. Your first hasty reading of it is probably crammed into ten minutes. You are desper- ately anxious to see how you photographed this year, and how the article you wrote looks in print. The second reading of your Kentian is a bit more thoughtful, but it probably takes a third, before you actually realize how much effort tand we do mean offortl lies behind each page. You recall lane lngley, the Editor-in-chief, rushing frantically about, pleading with writers to hand in their articles. You recall the harried student photographers imploring, Look pleasant, please! You recall Sally Davis taking group pictures, half-hidden behind her black hood, or searching frantically for plugs and outlets. You recall the black- boards overflowing with Annual notices. Perhaps you heard more than one of the Seniors bewailing the fact that she looked glamorless, or perhaps you forgot something and came back to school to find Miss Ewalt and the Annual Staff buried under stacks of papers and pictures. Thus, after your third perusal, you awaken to the realization that the Kentian contains a world more than your picture and article. It contains a year at Kent. KENTIAN STAFF' Editor: lane Ingley.

NOW IS THE MONTH OF MAYINGH Snowy white crab-apple blossoms, scarlet and yellow tulips, violets and lilies, and the young green of new leaves and grass combined to make a perfect setting for the crowning of our queen, Helen Wallbank, and for the gay program in her honor. The order of our songs and dances, some new and some familiar, appeared in print this year on a blue and silver parchment scroll. The festivities followed a Shakespearean theme. Patty Lou Manning as Touchstone, the jester, greeted the guests and introduced each lively number. Rosalind, masquer- ading as a country lad, was Wooed by Orlando, and Katherine the Shrew submitted, not entirely unwillingly, to Petruchio's persuasions. The on-lookers' approval was aptly expressed by their interest in the plays, by their hearty applause, and of course, by the incessant clicks of cameras.

Please! Have all Chips material in by Monday, absolute deadline! Please! Familiar sign? Of course it is. Busily keeping pace with all activities, the Chips staff has produced four grand issues, complete from editorial to dirt column, from poetry to sports. Eagerly we have scanned the gossip column to catch up on the latest 'Q X news . . . No less eagerly, though, do we meet in secret to write it. We've chuckled much over the Lower School poetry. How do they think of such clever titles, and how do they manage to hit the nail right in the middle? Kent's talented artists, filled with ideas, have given us appropriate drawings and amusing scenes from Kitty's busy life. Their lively sketches personalize each page. Each editor tries to outdo her predecessor in thinking of new ideas for features. The lunior issue boasted a Kent Kwiz which followed a new scientific style. The subtlety of asking, Which chick has the best pee-pers? was much more amusing than, Who has the prettiest eyes? The Senior issue added two new features . . . Miracles, and a cross word puzzle. Each issue of Chips shows variety, originality, and hard work, for it has been representative of school activities and individual talents and is a lasting record of important events, worthewhile thoughts, and interesting trivia, CHIPS STAFF Board of Editors: Betsy Blickensderfer, Gertrude Patterson, Virginia Packard, Linda Burkart.
