Autumnal hopes shone brightly as we entered the room we ill had just inherited. Predestined to work and grow together for another year, we seemed closer than ever. Morning memories have the oneness of Mr. Gavin’s early criticisms. One by one we submitted to his impenetrable reason- ing, and were charmed by his boyish spirits. And his nasal cliches were the barometer by which our growth was registered. No one could completely sympathize with our attempts to render our personalized perceptions, but even those working beyond the confines of our room, after having learned with us that “every color is red, yellow and blue,’’ must have heard that Pete was doing it the hard way, Aarne’s got bigger and better.

Illlllllll Harold was somewhat of a “chiceur,” and most of us were on the “right track.” The varieties of thesis work added to the space between easels, but the rest of the school was not altogether wrong in typing the Senior D.P.’s. We were by nature as heterogeneous a company as Bottom’s, but we found it perfectly natural to share interests in the Deacon’s corner. There were art exhibits, plays, radio programs, and a dozen other common bonds to start with; Hutchy’s skiing casualty and Lorraine’s rowing in from Winthrop became matters of common concern; and when our tricolored feminine entourage caught some of the enthusiasm of the hockey play-offs, our unity was complete. From Mr. O’Donnell’s urbane witticisms or Mr. Major’s eruptions we would return to the room we felt was our own. In the afternoon light, the after-images of our classmates stood before their easels, and we saw beneath the surface of the paint. Underclassmen poured in to pass judgment. Blind to the personalities lingering only for us, they could not realize that Cliff’s “were better than they looked,” or that Phil “knew what he wanted.” Stealing a momentary respite from our theses, we ponder the problems of the professional field which seem all-important and yet somewhat remote. More than ever we prize each moment because it seems that we shall never again thrill to the experience of living in such a close-knit community, sharing labors and dreams as readily as paint, rags and lunches. —EDWARD MALSBERG
