9Wneteen qorty nme fad a Mamud, Pleaae . . . The entire Staff of the Orange and Black wishes that every cadet in the Corps, every veteran student, every faculty member, and every person otherwise interested in Marion Institute may enjoy this book of pictures covering the scholastic year l948-'49, We realize that no picture record is ever totally and absolutely complete, but in this work we have made a sincere and honest effort to include everything possible up to the moment of going to press. It would be absurd to presume that an annual would be completely free from errors. For those mistakes we may have made, we ask that you remember the' size of the job and the details necessarily involved , . . and that any mistake here or there is wholly non-personal and unintentional, We extend our thanks to the Cadet Corps, the Faculty, all organizations within the school for their perfect willingness and cooperation in the work of making the whole series of pictures, both individual and groups. No one could ask support any better than,you gave us. Likewise, we should like to say that the Orange and Black has been magnificently subscribed to . . . a fact in itself which indicates the healthy state of the finances of this publication. At this moment we believe that the Orange and Black will stand firmly on its own and pay its own way. Every student in Marion lnsti- tute, cadet or veteran, has a right to feel proud of this , . , for it is the help of each of you, indi- vidually, which is responsible for this book. To Mr. Kenneth Land, the gentleman who made our pictures-with one or two exceptions, we say: Many Thanks . . . we appreciate your work and your personal courtesiesf' We are very grateful to every business firm that has an ad in the pages immediately to follow. The support-in the form of money and good will-+of these firms is genuinely appreciated. To us it is a pleasure to know that they extend this warm and friendly hand. To Mr. George Preiss of The Paragon Press we are indebted for the answers to vexatious ques- tions as we worked along. We take this occasion to say Thank You to him for his- pleasant and courteous assistance, i Let us make a little comment, and then we are at the end. The Staff as a unit has enjoyed the preparation of this year's Orange and Black, Much work has been needed . . . and our job is com- pleted . . . something which leaves us with a very pleasant feeling. We sincerely hope that you will enjoy looking through these pages again and again. C -7913911
