Now it was some- thing real, and we all were looking forward to September when we would start our work. As We look back in retrospect, we can see that work it has been -hard work. Many problems came up in rapid succession, but were lllet by an eager and cooperative group of students that were willing to sacrifice a little time and effort for the furthering of their dream. Today we can look around and see the fruits of our labor. lt is not a bitter fruit either, for it has a taste of unusual quality and value. That taste is accomplishment. But those who follow us, fand how We envy themj must realize the job isn't complete. They musn't relax, for time does not allow it. They must grab up the torch to carry on and follow through with the job. The keel is complete and through our combined efforts we have tried to make it sound. The hull has yet to be started. The keel is the traditions and standards that we have striven to lav and leave to you to maintain and build upon. Through the problems we encountered came our opportunity to set up what we thought right and good. It was the realization of these that brought out that wonderful quality that saw us through many a dilemma - spirit. The value of spirit cannot be underestimated. It was the predominant factor that held us together in our struggle, and steered this ship through many a storm. Yes, it was this pride that molded us from a teeming mass to a group of individuals who were shoulder to shoulder guiding our course toward success. As the problems mounted, we seemed to rise to each and every occasion. The problems were met with an unprecedented cooper- ation. As each new predicament presented itself, an ominous thought came with it: Woulfl this wonderful spirit of cooperation and willingness subside and our problems get the best of us? However, that problem went by, too, as our spirit seemed to spring eternal and squelch the fear. Yes., Drake has fine traditions and worthwhile goals. Through our toil. our labor, has come our reward. NAS ye sow, so shall ye reap. We have sown deep and true -- our harvest speaks for it- self. Yet again must we sow, and what will be our product? Here is another quandary - can we meet the challenge? Remember, here is a wonderful opportunity, and to ignore it is to destroy all that has gone before. Our harvest speaks for itself and so will yours. Maybe its worth will not show immediately and we will have to be patient. But the passing of the years will bring forth its value. What shall it be? If you who remain have built a solid hull upon a firm keel, the finished product will be truly worth its weight in gold. Then we will be happy, for the greatest joy is accomplishment. Time will be our judge. -MIKE MCCONE 4'
