thi s year Ami this book is not the real va - it was all tlu ' time. Sometiines it ' s the life we had before we started our ON or before we grew up or before setbacks on a piece of geographv half a world awa ' . But mostl ' it ' s the wa ' we want it again . . . full of fun and peachy and colorful. Full of people and places and things we like. Full of peace and light thoughts and all that. Jane Woodruff, ART editor Hon Snell, ALUM editor W ' ihna C liidcstcr, editor, niaile up for in stamina what she never had in height . . . wrote innu- nierable letters, lost office keys, but somehow collected enough pages together for the ' 51 ON.

this time isn ' t the last you ' ll look at Syracuse there ' ll be homecomings and alum chapters and building drives you ' ll meet old grads, remember old times when you meet again and sometime you ' ll look at Syracuse in a new light, find new youngness in the warmth you brought back to the hill, see the dash and spirit that used to characterize the kind of life we worked hard at. There wasn ' t time to stop and wonder why life was so gay all of a sudden how nicely peace plans bubbled all over. They told us we ought to enjoy a bit of fun while we could but you couldn ' t. You read as many downtown dailies as DO ' s, and you really couldn ' t d about things that hurt. You couldn ' t do anything but think of the light-hearted way it had been . . . the casual, lively years you had made for yourself. They ' re not easy to forget . . . and sometimes, in the scheme of things, it ' s important to remember the life that was the college years.
