0l 2lfU0lf' In preparing the 1948 Edition of the Blue Book, we, the editors, have followed certain aims. First we have tried to catch something of that intangible quality, which, for want of a better word, we call school spirit. To get this we have tried to dig beneath the surface of school life for items which we think best account for the reasons for the tre- mendous loyalty for our school. lt has not been easy to do this, the editorial writer can not describe school spiritg nor can the photographer always' catch it in his pictures, but through these photographs and their accompanying captions. We hope we have caught something of the es- sence of the quality that is unmistakably Pingry. Another aim of the staff has been to create a tangible history of the year that will not only interest our readers now, but also help revive long-forgotten memories in the dim future when we hope you will again open this book. XVe have tried particularly in this edition to be more inclusive in our coverage of the school. For the first time, we have included certain phases of school life such as chapel. luncheon, and rallies, which have heretofore been omitted, but which we consider to be an integral part of our daily existence. To catch a glimpse beneath the surface of school life, we have added many more pictures and several new pages. By also adding pages to parts of the school, which, in our opinion, have hereto- fore received insufficient attention, we hope we have created a well- balanced yearbook. We do not know how successful we have been in putting out this annual. But whether we have had success or only failure, we have de- rived constant pleasure from the preparation of this book. XYe only hope that our readers will gain as much pleasure as ourselves from this work. If this is the case, and if these pages are again turned fifteen, twenty-live, and fifty years hence, then our time has been well spent. 4
