Preface T IS YOURS, this picture of yesterday. It belongs to you, the Wide-eyed freshman, the sophisticated senior. It is the story of your year, a record of your dreams, your hopes, your accomplishments. You are at once its principal players and its interpreters. It has no theme other than that Which you provide; it lacks rigidity of structure as does your campus life. Take it home with you, this piece of memory. Read between the lines. Remember the little things, the end of autumn days from .a rain-splashed Window . . . the mood of yellowing leaves and faded summer; a Winters twilight, purple on the glistening snow . . . the mood of blanketed silence and faith in Him Who was born 1,900 years ago; the hesitant beginning of spring on Wednesday evenings Which are clear as the church bells that sing of peace . . . the mood of Lent and hope. Remember the deeper things, the more abstract. The Christian meaning of the pattern of the University. We have tried to capture this elusive beauty, this essence we call Valparaiso. We have attempted to put down on paper its amaz- ing meaning. If, With the aid of this book, you Will iirecollect in tranquillity tomorrow or twenty years from tomorrow the peace you knew here, we Will not have strived in vain. 8 3Q3Q

It is to you, our returned servicemen, Who have fought for the preservation of our ideals, that we humbly and gratefully dedicate this 1946 Beacon. Page 4
