May This yearbook serve in years To come as a link To Tormer classmaTes and a means oT recalling acTiviTies, Triends, and TaculTy. Planned and prinTed during The Time when The world was oTTicially aT peace, The TwenTy-TiTTh volume oT The Clan-O-Log has come ouT in Times ThaT have been anyThing buT peaceTul. Problems are world-wide and Tinally came righT To our small world here aT PiedmonT l-ligh School, where, among oTher Things, The Clan-G-Log STaTT has had To grapple wiTh The eTTecTs oT war and The TransiTion To peace. We oT The sTaTT OT I947 Teel ThaT much crediT should go To Those ediTors during The war who main- Tained The sTandards oT The Clan-O-Log, while some schools abandoned Their yearbooks enTirely. This ye a r, alThough we also have been aTTecTed by some oT The same shorTages and by The high prices, we have also had opporTuniTies To reTurn To TeaTures Typical oT The prefwar ClaneOAl.og. Cne oT Those TeaTures oT which we are proud is The cover oT heavy maTerial To replace The breakable plasTic bindings, and The size oT The book has been increased slighTly.
