he effect of this ever present element in society fnamely the Younger Generation, on the cultural, intellectual, and economic activities of the human race was tremendous. This, the I945 Koala is an attempt to pre- serve for study and future reference by coming generations, a record of life as these quaint and curious people actually lived it.

kmong the various other activities of the Younger Gen- eration were occasional events held in the gym after a game or honoring a special occasion such as Friday the l'hirteenth labovel. These were known as dances , and 'he motions there portrayed were erroneously referred to is dancing . Parents who observed, only commented 'hot this pastime had once been considered an art.

Some worshipped-some loathed-but at any rate he should have felt honored to find him- self displayed in the neat, orderly lockers of so many co-eds. ln addition to picture galleries, these lockers were also used for the occasional storing of books, :oats, and other miscellaneous material. Although they appeared completely frivolous it was this Younger Generation that was winning a war. Each month a few grinning fellows entered some branch of the service. When home on leaves they were a little less slap-happy- a little more aware of what was going on around them, but they didn't resent the fact that those at home still knew how to laugh. Instead they joined in, for that laughter was one thing they had left home to preserve.
