Formulating. the spirit of Rosemont in words and focusing this through a theme was the problem that faced the Senior Class in preparing the 1953 Cor- nelifm. From individual impressions came ideas and finally the plan. Mal-ze-up was changed and re- changed, rewrites were given conscientious attention, pictures were posed and snapped. We wanted this book to focus on all the classes as we saw them. The staff directed, but the entire class contributed, we enjoyed the challenge for creativeness and selection. XVe hope we have captured what we feel-our love and appreciation of Rosemont. The photography committee get some pointers, I. 10 r. M. Tickle. B. Kodes. M. A. McNally. M. G. Flynn, L. Schaeffncr. B.
