Correlator Yearbook staffs come and yearbook staffs go, but the Corrclator goes on forever. liuoyed up by this hope, this year's staff went to work with a will. Even before school started, way back in September, contracts with engraver and printer were negotiated. Then dummy-making began. Sheets of tis- suey paper floated about the office in Bel- lield. as the newly-chosen staff members out- lined their pages. It was decided to publish a smaller book than usual, due to war's im- minency and rising prices. The F.Y.C. and High School editors worked in their respec- tive student councils to obtain the necessary funds. Pictures after all form the backbone of any yearbook. Therefore Correlator pictures were planned early a11d their taking began in The U-High Staff: David Mohlman: David Maefarlaneg james Meade. 20 November with High School classes and clubs. More photographs were taken. and sent to the engraver. throughout the year Amateur camera addicts contributed candid shots to an ever-increasing pile on the editor's desk. As the spring semester drew to a close,last minute shots rushed through to show the year at school from beginning to end. High School and Four Year College stu- dents worked together in the publication of this l942 Correlator. but an effort was made to separate their fields as they are actually two separate sections of the University.

Phi Beta Sigma Phi Beta Sigma, the honorary society of the Four Year College. has had a very event- ful year. The officers were Stanley Coombs, president: George Daskal, treasurerg and Eleanor Tibbetts, secretary. ln the fall new members from the twelfth grade were selected. They received the tra- ditional informal and formal initiation. Later in the fall a dinner was given for members of all four years of the Four Year College. ln February the members gave a roller skat- ing party for the eleventh and twelfth grades in Ida Noyes Gym. Phi Bete planned to give a dance in spring, but some of the members objected to this on the basis that Phi Bete was not acting or spending its money in ac- cordance with its purpose. After much dis- cussion it was decided not to have a dance but to use the money for a more worthwhile undertaking. Also the informal initiation of neophytes was abandoned. Near the end of school the members held their annual picnic. This was, as always, a favorite and very successful. Gargoyle The Gargoyle, the Four Year College mag- azine. got off to a difficult start this year when no one would take the editorship be- cause of heavy school work. However, l.ois Goldstein assumed the position and under her capable management a successful issue has been published. The staff, composed of Alice Sheehan, Eleanor Tibbetts, Catharine Hopkins, Arlene Kohn, and Stanley Coombs, met every Tues- day afternoon to make plans for the maga- zine. At first, very little cooperation was re- ceived from the rest of the student body, but as the date of publication approached, arti- cles and stories Hooded the Gargoyle office. After much hard work by the staff and its contributors, the very successful magazine made its appearance on May l8. and was re- ceived enthusiastically by everyone. E. Tibbettsg A. Sheehang A.

Stein, H. Rubin. Gleavesg G. Vvillensg M. Yam- polsky. Weekly The Four Year College XVeekly has com' pleted its third successful year. This year it aimed to unite more closely the first two years of the college with the last two. To carry out that aim, the XVeekly had a thir- teenth year student editor, .Ioan Ellen Sal- mon, who also edited the paper last year. The distribution of the NVeekly was more widespread than before. All students in the Four Year College received a copy. whether they were on campus or not. Contributions of stories and articles from the thirteenth and fourteenth year students were good, but few and far between. Staff members, except for the editor, were eleventh and twelfth grade students. Dur- ing the past year the editorial positions have managing editor rose and then completely disappeared. But the editors have had a more serious difficulty to cope withg the lack of student eo-operation. The VVeekly has never in its past had the organization that it had this year. and in spite of that, or perhaps because of that, students were unwilling to report and write up events. Several times during the year oral pleas and written ones in the form of editorials were made, with promising results.
