F OREWORD 64 A great French poet once wrote Where are the snows 0f yesteryeariw and we of the Staff have been wondering if he had in mind Riverside and North Georgia dur- ing the winter of 1960. We can,t come up to the poetic talents of Francois Villon, but we have striven with pen, typewriter, brush, and camera to translate the 1959-60 year into a collection of writings, photographs, drawings, and comments that will serve to keep alive the interesting experiences shared by the Corps elow moments, highlights, personalities, incidents, and events in connection with every phase of cadet activity. We hope that in doing so we have cap- tured something of the fine spirit that has made this one of the finest Corps in River- side,s history. U DEDNICATIO Warmth, interest, friendliness, unfailing eouirtesy, eihciency, firmness, and definite- ness are among the qualities s0 abundantly evident and so highly appreciated by us that we take pride in dedicating to their possessor, Captain Maurice O. Edmonds, U.S.A., this the forty-first volume of the Bayonet, With regret that Army orders take him from us at the end of this session, but with warmest appreciation of the three years that it has been our good fortune to have him here.
