Our year was, in a sense, a new era, symbolized by the purple-and-white Northwestern State flag which made its first appearance in the early fall . . . We had a new president, new faculty members, hundreds of new students, a new pep squad, a new flag pole, a new student body con- stitution, and a new legislature. ODVE, But there was still an abundance of reminders that change is slow and never without its challengers . . . There were jalopies galore which some- times sputtered and coughed their way about the campus and some- times refused to run at all . . . There was the rain, gallons and gallons and buclcetfuls of it . . . There was the N on the water tank and Cald- well Hall . . . These remained as they had been.

tlGHr tf F E DE W S Who, ah who, can forget the registration day lines and the bewi ' dered looks on the faces of freshmen . . . the State Fair trip, the parade, the pep rally on the square, and the beauties who reigned as State Fair Maids at the game ... or black, black cups of Field House coffee consumed in hot gulps between classes ... or the brand new squad of uniformed De- monettes marching smartly in step across the football field . . . Who can forget the way our year began? THEY LOVE.
