unior Class LEFT TO RIGHT, BACK ROW: A. Moser, Miller, Mintz, Meads, Klutznick, Palmer, Burns. FRONT ROW: Kratky, Doble, M. Moser. Bridges, Dargan, Warren-Koch, Stein. A junior class is a building class, building within and without in the college world in preparation for the bigger world: forming perfect mind-windows and eye-windows for observing life. But weathering muddies windows and cracks them, sometimes shattering them. Heat buckles windows, cmd often their own weight twists them into distorted shapes. The task then is first to build strong windows, reinforced with tough sub- stance to withstand heat and sharp blows. Second is to protect the windows with strong screening in order to sift well what passes both in and out. Last is to scrub and polish, more carefully inside, for plain dust gathers thick on an exposed surface. But if the shattering, melting, twisting comes? We must meet the final task: the rebuilding, not on the old formula, but with a new blending enriched by the products of experience and experiment. We are living for the experience and groping for the method.
