i 10 But if you werenit ready, if you hadn't quite finished, you found yourself, for some strange reason, coddling yourself less and admiring Swarthmore all the more. And if we have all long since learned that Swarthmorels candy coating melts quickly, we have also more recently learned that its center affords considerable cerebral chewing. Somehow we have come to feel that the night vigil, the drafty room with the rattling pane, the understocked Libe and underequipped lab don't seein quite as bad as they used to, aren't quite as noticeable. For in the midst of all this, and in spite of an occasional dull lecture or tedious seminar, we've sensed the fascination of the free, quick play of ideas, the tangible flash of insight, and the pride of intellectual rigor.

Night vigil, The burnt-out ends of smoky days, ten o'cloek, twelve . . . two . . . four. . . . The sugar coating of the catalogues and pamphlets has long since dissolved, and now, every morning: Swarthmore, l've got you licked! And every night: O.k., Swarthmore, you win. But you go on studying, or writing . . . or dreaming. Five o'clock, six. And when all the world came baekf And the light crept up between the slzultersf And you heard the .spurrows in the gutters, maybe you were ready. Or maybe you weren't.
