In our Drawing and Painting haunts at the north end of the building, we have aggregated individual apti- tudes and interests, even as we maintained our per- sonalities to afford a happy, creative atmosphere. This year the department has been rejuvenated with four hitherto foreign courses. In addition to the week-long mornings of life painting, we work know- ingly with tempera and fresco. Our nights are filled with problems of air brush and spatterings of lettering combined with compositions and illustrations, ex- periments with color, etchings, and blocks; but we are most Intimate with the fine arts, pastels, oils, and water colors. We are strong in the belief that ours is a firm foundation. FLORENCE WHITMORE RUTH DOHERTY

ip aKRrasf I IKE newly minted coins, we fondle happy memories of all the yester- days. In autumn there was the procession of green, effervescing with quaint ideas; in June the procession of sombre black and flaunting blue in a paradoxical mixture of joy and sadness. There were zestful afternoons of etching when the keen miracle of black on white took hold; Mondays of joyful rejuvenation and Fridays with dirge of broken hopes. There was the allspice of the class and the tang of distinct flavors: Charlie painting furiously long after the model had gone, Dick’s intense quietness, and Put’s never-tiring puppet walk. Books, conversations. Pops, museums, galleries, made up the broad repeating pattern against the individual moments of elation. We enjoyed en masse the Disney creation; in threes, the French productions — and we all agreed on “The Baker’s Wife.” Tolstoi, Chesterton, Thoreau, spoke to us in our separate hermitages, enchanting us away from the dross of the mart. We all tried, but more often than not we had the maddening feel- ing of making holes in water. Now the pattern is changing into a dual repeat of thesis and job. Even the carefree have adopted an attitude of serious absorption, for when we trickle out into an indifferent society, there will be few to pay heed to puerilities. These were all of our days and years. VINCENT PORTA RICHARD CHASE
