Many elements in the Packer we know had their beginnings in a more or less distant yesterday. Now they are our concern, and they combine with the things we do differently and the new factors we create into the experience of today. In turn they will be a part of tomorrow. l want to congratulate the members of the staff upon this volume. It is not only outstanding as a yearbookg it is also tangible evidence of the unity of the past, the present, and the futurefand it emphasizes good work in the present as evidence of that unity. 10....f1v. 34.4. SHINING MORNING FACE 'LWith reading and writing, and paints and plays, and history and music to fill their days' '... the gingham and plaid' clad youngsters of the Elementary School are climbing the stairs of learning in search of the lamp of knowledgefor maybe even a cap and gown. The stairs are new, and some are new to the stairs, hut donit think that keeps anyone from taking them two at a time! The Sixth Graders have a few more honestftofgoodness steps to tread since the pentf house is no mere product of a Utopian imagination. Work and play with lots more ahead. Going up? Just as the ivy clmgs and climbs It would be nice to hold such a council around such a table with such a President presiding, for another purpose than that of having a picture taken. This doesn't mean, however, that the officers of the Elementary School are unfriendly towards one another. Connie Thayer, President of the Eighth Sail on, ob ship of state Grade, smiles graciously at Ann Browder, Polly Hume, Edith Kepke, Mary EitzRandolph, and Ruth Wasson, heads of the Third through Seventh Elementary respectively, and they immediately feel at home. New presidents or monitors are elected so often, that by the end of the year, several people have been honored in an official capacity, and everyone has had a chance to get better acquainted with everyone else. A democratic form of government surpassed only by the Student Council. 9 Vitamin Parade Expectant, curious, wellfbehaved, wellffedfe e-the First Elementary. The Senior Lunch Room after ofhce hours is the scene of important table talk, hroken straws, and second helpings, With a dignity befitting the younger generation, sixteen little damsels and seven little men march across the campus, slide towards the dining quarters, out of their legginls, and into their seats. 'Nuff said. ACADEMIC RECESS Assembly Room-Y radio, dancing, Dixie cups. Rhythm a daily recurrence. Accent on Touth. Remember the thrill of finding a room all your own? Remember an exclusive spot Where you talked to whom you pleased, danced in stocking feet, and really felt terribly important . . . even ifit was only till the clock struck one? Academic School means Plane Geometry and Elementary Algebra, but it also means a hurried lunch and the music of Tommy Dorsey. Let's remember more than that, though. Let's not forget a separate building for the little tots, a pentf house for the Sixth Elementary, a Social Room for the juniors and Seniors, and yet . . . a chapel and school spirit for all. Let's remember the sound of the piano, the squeak ofthe chairs, the phonetics chart on the wall, the crack of volley' ball against window. Let's remember the jump ofthe clock, the jump of the jitterbug, the jump of the heart. Lets remember. Rllytlimir Shadows 11 -0 FACES AND PLACES ELEvAToR f Th e elevator is the comf mon meeting ground of all. The students try not to slaughter the faculty and the faculty tries not to lose its dig' nity climbing over the bodies.

Maude Erskine , Conversation Piece COLLEGE NOTES Ten to one, only one out of ten entering Juniors does not think of the privileges the Collegiate School offers her. The privilege of actually vvhizzing out of school hefore tvvofthirtyffive, if you're freeg of using the lihrary until six when you need it inostg of squishing out your cigarette in the cork' centered ashftray of the social rooni. But there are other privileges too. That of out' lining the Psychology chapters, of taking class notes in Econoinics and of preparing two hours work per course instead of for ty' live minutes. Yet take a vote and you'll get unaniinous approval of the vvhole Collegif ate School System. Mayhe it's because by this tiine we realize that the faculty are real, human people who are willing to niake school life more informal and more palatahle. 13 4 f.. Yi' THE JUNIOR CLASS 14 Modern Tmtype This widefeyed group of bewildered young ladies was much too suddenly plunged into a new system of work and play. Overrunf ning the Social Room with hridge players and uhoogiefwoogien addicts they left the settled Seniors breathless at the pace they set. Nevertheless, time has shown that these sprightly juniors can work. Under the expert guidance of Louise Giordano, President, this energetic group was eventually organized, and the finished product is quite satisfactory. They were fortunate enough to have Miss Giddings as Prefect, Alida Brown as Vice-President, Grace Clark as Secretary, and Anita Leather as Treasurer. They collaborated with us in hockey, turned out en masse at the PELICAN Prom, and gave Spring Dance. No wonder we foresee big things ahead for these prospective dignified Seniors. ii A loud scream after a discovered suicide hrought the faculty rushing to our assistance. But this was only part of a rehearsal for k'Stage Door, the play that snapped, craclded and popped its way through Deceinher sixth and seventh. The show almost didn't go on when the hero pulled an incognito act hehind a moustache and under a derhy . . . hut we surf vived the shock and cleared over two hundred dollars. 'Ioan Scheele, general chairman of the whole ailair, breathed a sigh of relief when the proceeds were handed over to the Aniy Dunlap Memorial Fund.

Betty Dean proved herself the Elsa Max' well ofPz1cker while Mary Qetjen and her committee lived up to their reputation as cakefhzikers. Mme. Lash's soothing punch remains her piece de resistance, and the trio of overseers, Miss Ascher, Miss Scheele, and Miss Riley, was nohl Y rewarded for its ellorts. 16 i MMM SENIOR PROM The Senior spring dance was exceptional! The dance floor was so crowded we tripped over one another right and left, and when we became bored dancing we played findfthefhirdsfinfthefpaperfhousesfweftackedfonfthefwall.

There was gold, but there were some of the latest 1041 models, too. A toast to the Pelican Preview of Spring, to the manikins, to the chairmen, to the commit' tees and to the sponsor! A toast to Doris Kessling and Mary Giordano, to jean Follett, Helen Sears, Florence Zimmermann, Mary Oetjen, Elaine Ascher, and Madame Lash. Copious thanks to Jean jacaruso and Edith Flaacke who so nohly portrayed our Sad Apples, and still more thanks to Helen Davidson and Janet Young of the Second Ac. who sold so many tickets we wondered if they ate them Friday, liehruary twentyfeighth, was then indeed a day of days. The models draped in silver fox and toeless shoes as well as in red socks and nioccasins dis' played their wares with an almost prof fessional touch, and to them the Senior Class is grateful. lvlarian Bainbridge, Loretta Cuoio, Audrey Egan, Henrietta Hughes, .lean Alacaruso, Mzirgo Macf kenzie, Ivlarion lVIacRury, .lean Markf ham, Ruth lvlurray, Natalie Smith, Nan Wgulsli, and Ann Walters were the chosen characters and they seemed to he thoroughly enjoying the sport. ln one teemefweeme hour you were told to join the Navy, Check into Plaid, 'Suit Yourself, and 'Dress the Partf' You were also informed that k'Girl Meets Boy, 'Dresses Follow Suitf' and L'The Night is Young.

It has been a great pleasure to work with the 194-1 staff, to collaborate in the planning and creation of the book, and to go on record as appreciating the fine spirit and splendid co- operation which was so manifest at all stages of the work. For more than forty years, many of America's most notable yearbooks have come from the BJH presses. lt is a service to college yearbook staffs that has been augmented in many im- portant ways, an experience of constantly mounting value to those whose classmates entrust them with the challenge of making their book superior to all the fine books that have preceded it. And it is because We so keenly relish the opportunity to have a part in the acceptance of that challenge that we look forward to working with future yearbook staffs with the same fervor, the same right hand of assistance, that made the creation of this excellent annual such a mutually gratifying experience.
