INN DUCING THIS IS WHY - - . SO WHAT? For a group Whom We know and recognize as edu- cated, We have prepared a very unique edition of the Argus. Therefore an insight into the theories back of it will be helpful at the outset. The ideal yearbook is that one which is most prolific of mem- ories from the real life which it portrays. ln addition, it must give a pleasing, authoritative picture to the college patron and the prospective student. lf the original enjoyment of it is too quickly exhausted, and it does not invite repeated exploration or chal- lenge the reader's ingenuity, it cannot be perfect. Moreover, it must be natural, not grandiose and for- mal. Others may judge in this light what We've done. INTRODUCTION . . DEDICATION BOOK II - - . SNOW BOUND CLUBS - BASKETBALL . SCENES BOOK IV .

WELL, HERE'S WHAT . . . WHY NOT? A rather exotic theme lends the necessary continuity to this work, which We present as the product of an ideal. lt is an international language motif, which begins with the hand- painted view of the Tower of Babel, symbolizing the original division of languages. We follow with the story, season by season, of this year as We have lived it. Among the pictor- ial sidelights of the campus and the more or less meaningful Words, We have strewed bits of wisdom in the strange guise of foreign tongues. The book ends with an artist's panorama of views typical oi alien lands, as emblems of the present clarity of idioms. The modern page style constantly reminds us of the depth beneath the informal surface, and the unity of tone is an aesthetic implication of universal human traits. BOOK I . .
