Dr. Sheldon E. Davis, President Emeritus J1 ROM the land of Don't Forget comes the 1947 Chinook, joining the long shelf of yesterday-tomorrow. You who have made and lived this worthy volume will be fondly saying in 1975, Has it been that long since our bunch play-worked on this book? How much time we had then! Not one of us looks worried or in a hurry. Is that the way I looked? No, the pictures played us false. I remember how short the time was. If we needed an hour, we had a minute. Maybe I did not see myself, but I remember how some of you looked—sometimes. That peaceable posing staff used to fight like the 702,143 robins on the campus (census of 1940). How much the Chinook left out! Still, I like you, Old Book, and I hope the class of 1975 is as busy and unpeaceable as we were. What you leave out, pleasant memory supplies. On with the Chinook.
