tit Bind A year, and what a year — Sewanee ' s Pre-Centennial Year a time of plans, of ideas, of thoughts of the future and of the past, too, as this senior class marks the end of Sewanee ' s first century. This was a time of classes, quizzes, and term papers: and a time of Abbo, Lupo, and the Red Dean— of Chapels, and Vestry talks, not to for- get Hrothgar, Pearl, and the battle of the dogs. It was a time of trips to Clara ' s and to Tubby ' s for steaks and for beer; and a time of hikes and caving to discover the beauties of the Mountan first hand. It was also a time of fraternity parties and of good dates (and some that were not so good) and of football and basketball games, drink- ing clubs and of costume parties and formal dances. There was also time for thought, and reverence, and of new revelations and the way they effected the everyday events; and it was a time of visiting — taking advantage of faculty-student relationship that gave so much more than could be gained in the classroom alone. Here, the Nineteen-Fifty-Seven CAP AND GOWN, presents a summary, in words and pictures, of Sewanee, 1957— As seen in the COLLEGE with its 8 o ' clock classes, panic sessions, and grades. As seen in the School of THEOLOGY with its ecclestical endeavor contrasted by the burning of old Powhatan Hall in effigy. In GOVERN- MENT AND PUBLICATIONS, too, we see life in the Uni- versity portrayed by its campus leaders, duly elected, working for the interests of the University. ORGANIZA- TIONS, the extremely important activities outside the classes are pictured as well. Our active program in the FRATERNITIES— presented chapter by chapter can tell only briefly the many activities of the nine on the Mountain. As no man is whole without some form of athletics, so, too, no yearbook would be complete with- emct iME. mmmmmmmimmmmm and fuller cover the year the CAP AND GOWN presents a new and extended feature section with as much of Se- wanee life as we could cram into it. So, then, to the stu- dent body of the University of the South, here is your year NINETEEN FIFTY SEVEN AT SEWANEE. QUI lilt? msionea ui oc
