0If'QlfUOIf' LAKE Forest College in the fall ol nine- teen hundred and fifty through the spring of nineteen hundred and fiity-one- significant as every year is significant. To the seniors it marlcs the end of four happy college years, to the Freshmen, the begin- ning. We hope this boolc in later years will serve as a nostalgic reminder of these nine ephemeral months. ln it you will see pictured your classmates, your professors, the dances and the parties you attended, the Colifee Shop where you passed so many pleasant moments with your friends. These events were all a part of your life during this time, but to malce you really appreciate this year at Lalce Forest, one should recall what was happening to the rest of the world while we were :ig safely and pleasantly passing the time. Do you remember it was a tumultous year. It was in the June of 1950 that the small republic of South Korea was in- vaded irom the north. Because of this, many oi our l...F. boys were called into the service to help protect freedom in all parts of the world. The Kefauver Crime ln- vestigation we saw over television. We heard over the radio and read in the news- papers of the widespread peddling of dope to high school boys and girls and, onthe lighter side, we read that women's slcirts were again becoming shorter and their hair longer. These were the things happen- ing on the world outside, the world we soon would be entering. This year at L.F.C. is memorable.
