This is the year for taking stock of the 20th century. The Times and the Lifes are knock- ing themselves out to name the biggests and the bests of its first fifty years and to predict the probable trends of its second fifty. The role of half-time commentator falls naturally to the Class of 1950, which swept into the Valley on the crest of the GI flood four years ago and sweeps out this year on the crest of the wave of the future. In 1946, when the Class of ' SO descended on and nearly innundated L. V. C. ' s campus, the Valley still wore her war-time aspect. Enrollment was low, women were comparatively nu- merous and veterans, though increasing in numbers, were still in a minority. September ' 46 saw all that changed. Almost overnight veterans — mostly men, and mostly day students — upset the sex ratio and turned the campus into a factory; Freshman rules became obsolete because the freshmen outnumbered the other three classes put together; and classrooms be- came virtual sardine cans. In the years that have followed, the Class of ' 50, with its high percentage of war-matured men, has displayed an unusual talent for leadership. Leavened by the influence of its female members and that of the progressively younger incoming classes of ' 51, ' 52, and ' 53, the Class of ' 50 has helped gradually to restore the Valley to a more normal collegiate life. As the century enters its second phase, the era of the veteran joins the era of the coon-skin coat and hip flask. The Class of ' 50, as that tumultuous era ' s typical spokesman, bequeathes to its successors a tradition of activity and leadership, exemplified in the revivification of Student Government, the Quittie, the Societies, and student social life. Upon this service to the campus community, already taken up by its successors, the Class of ' 50 lays its hopes for re- membrance when it will have passed into the limbo of the alumni.
