ADMIIISTR William P. Graham c;hancellor (5 From the Chancellor . . . ilXVOXE who examines the file of Year Books in the University Library will be unable to find the Onondagan of the class of 1919. But when this class oraduated we w cre again at peace, try- ing to put together the |)icces of our shattered national life. This task was very difficult. It has never been fully accomplished. liut. we learned something by experience and from all responsible leaders comes the cry, carry on as nearly as possible in normal fashion . Nothing would please our enemies more than lo ihomughh dis- rupt our ways of life and thought. In the days inmicdiaiely following the oiubreak ol i ' ar, there seemed to be some prospeci liiai fifth column activity would sucked. Vc l)ecame jit- terv. We jiunpcd this way and that in feverish desire to do something . Fortunately we now seem to be sobering do ' n and preparing our- selves for the long strong pidl ahead. And, I am sine that in this respect also, the Axis powers will fail. The Onondagan of 1920 is the most interesting of all the series. It contains a long Honor Roll and a very long Service List . But, it tells a ery small part of the story of Syracuse University in the First ' orld War. Perhaps the Onondagan of 1944 ■will lell an even more interesting story. Whate er comes, we know liiat the University will bi- proud of ils record.
