Garnet .stag members take a break to pose with some past editions of the Garnet. THE This group prepared the bulk ofthe 1954- Garnet. The 1954- edition of the Garnet is the 99th volume of a traditional Union College publication. The Garnet holds a distinctive place in American college literature, being one of the oldest college annuals in continuous publication. This year's edition breaks from the traditional pattern in several respects. The first is the unusual color scheme of the cover which first introduces the theme. The use of color in the opening section and on the divider pages highlights the book. The effective and we hope interesting characterization of the Dutchman serves to unfold the events of 1953-54. Another new departure will be the pub- lication of a 16-page supplement this summer to record the spring sports of 1954 and the commence- ment activities of the Class of 1954-.
