SENIOR COUNCIL ond Row left to right: Profitn. Sleeper, Knowl- lon, TomainI, Kopsiaf- During these four fast years at Northeastern we have seen many changes come to us, the University, and the world. We have become mature in an immature world ; the Univer- sity has added one building, admitted co-eds, trained the ASTP ; and the world was shaken with the worst war in history. We also saw sane people go berserk trying to figure out songs like Hut Sut Song, Pistol Packin ' Mamma, and Mairzy Doats. This war has come close to us, for we have seen our classmates leave — some, never to come back. And now the rest of us are leaving the doors of Northeastern behind us to go out into the world to help in as many ways as we possibly can to win this war. We realize the task that is before us and we know that it will be hard but we will do our utmost to speed the day when once again all people can live in a free world.
