Foreword CZ'OME BACK with us, dear Reader, over the canal bridge, up the campus steps, around the Residence Halls, past the Gymnasium, to the Administration Building, and through these pages of your 1948 Chinook. Remember the inspiration of your classes, the thrill of the football games, the gayety of the dances. Listen! You can hear the poignant music of the concerts, the gay laugh of the girl down the hall, the drone of the library, the sharp ring of the class bells, the cheers for the Bulldogs.'' Can you see the candle-lighted initiations, the pile of Montanomals on Wednesday mornings, the happy students ready for the Go and the intense young graduate accepting his diploma? The next year is here waiting to go forward, but there is time for you to look once more at this past year and recall fond memories with your Chinook.

President Rush Iordan President’s Mess a e TIME SPENT in college is not only preparation for life; it is life. Live it well, for it will not last forever. Four years is but a little time. College is a place to live and learn and to be happy. Hard work can be pleasant, and learning should not be painful. College days are good days. Fill each one full. Neglect none of your opportunities lest you regret it later. When in after years you look at your 1948 Chinook be prepared to say, That v as a good year. A year I will remember. The president and the faculty wish all students success, but each student makes his own record. You are rewarded as you deserve — at college as elsewhere. RUSH IORDAN. ( 4 )
