7 claw Perhaps, several years in the future, someone will find this book in an attic, surrounded by dusty, cobwebby volumes, and take it down for a moment of inspection. Perhaps, too, after brush- ing the accumulated residue of time from the edges, he will recall some of the shifting panorama of the year of its publication. Nine- teen hundred and fifty, he may say, was a rather momentous year. Certain things happened in the world which caused a con- siderable amount of concern and doubt, The hydrogen bomb made its appearance, there was persistent talk of Imperialism and status quo, Americans were supporting the desolated nations of Europe with arms and resources, cold wars and faster jet planes broke into the headlines, world destruction was dismally on the lips of worried scientists. These problems were facing all men, and demanding the utmost of courage and resolution. Other things, too, of a more intimate nature were occurring at the mid year of the Twentieth Century. Colleges throughout the country were preparing for the largest graduation ceremonies ever to take place, the last great veteran class was leaving its alma mater, jobs were increasingly difficult to locate. And behind it all was the seeming endless quiet of the College. Shadows still lay softly about University Hall, there were yet dances and movies and plays, there was studying and there were discussions, old trees budded across the damp walks, and the misty glow of lamps shone down the campus green at night. And there were professors and friends and room-mates, all caught momentarily in the warp and woof of memory, How young they seem, how far-away and lost-and yet familiar . . . And perhaps this prophetic someone will place his book gently back among its fellows, and go quietly from the attic, companioned by the ghostly spectors of the past.
