ait a second . . . You ' re leaving your key. Yes, your key to the hook. Before you go on glancing at pictures, scanning the hook, and missing the point, won ' t you let us give you a key to its scheme and an idea of what to expect? Our scheme is to use the plan of a woman ' s magazine as far as possible. This we chose believing that women ' s magazines best record the progress of womanhood in the various fields for which students of TSCVV are studying. It also offered excel- lent standards and improvements in yearbook makeup. Such planning is exem- plified in part by the cover, the introduction of feature articles, the new trends of photography, the modern layouts, and the advertisements observing column form. Our theme is TSCVV Looking Forward. This we chose because it has been a year of Dumbarton Oaks Conferences and victorious allied drives ... all planting hope for the future and something to look forward to. That looking forward spirit was brought home to us when we on the staff noticed it in the stride of Winged ' ictory, the jaw line of The Pioneer Woman, and in the inspiration of our Little Chapel. We have striven to capture it in the expression of the girl on our cover and by feajturp articles in the book proper, not to mention its very atmosphere and style of wj ' iting. ■ ' V Our aims have been many. Our first was to give you tut very best yearbook you have ever had. Close onto its heels was to give you a memory book that ' s value would increase with every day, every year that passed. We like to think of your sitting with your grandkids on your knee, showing and reading to them about everything you did . . . from the books you read and the movies you saw to the clothes you wore and the fads you encouraged; and above all, the col- lege you went to. We hope that the book reflects our pride and mirrors our love for just those things. You may go on now ... Thank you, C ne 943 JyaeoaLian Staff
