Aerial View ot Arkansas Villagee-Sterlington FGIQEWORD l Because l949 marks Ouachita's igy- fiith anniversary-its emerald yearee, the Roarer Staff has endeavored to re-X' llect this year's events at our Alma Mater and also to record something oi the past and present oi the School, the Parish, and the Riverfall endeared to us by the name Ouachita. The result we submit proudly, hoping that any short-comings may be re- garded leniently, since We have been prompted in our undertaking by the lotty purpose of depicting features ot the three beloved Ouachitas, and have labored unceasingly in accomplishing our aim. May the Hoarer oi l949 be such that in years to come it will touch gently and delightfully the tender chords ot Memory. ' Monroe Skyline Page Five ' ,
