Above Is a view of Iho flag on Iho main drive way as seen through the entranco to Mendel Hall. Along with the towering spires of the Chapel, tho flag symbolizes the two-fold aim of Catholic education. Those alms include not only the molding of men who are good citizens but also the molding of citizens who are good mon. The education which Villanova offers is indeed a priceless possession. How- ever oven more priceless than the train- ing recoivod are the many pleasant hours which one spends in the com- pany of his follow students. No moro fertile ground can be had for the culti- vation of life long friendships than the oxistenco of tho common aim to gradu- ate and the united offort to attain this aim.

 No more picturesquo sight may be had than a view oi tho Villanova campus at the arrival oi spring. Its winding pathways aro shaded by numerous trees and lined with flowered bushes oi many colors. Possessing both grace and beauty it adds dignity to a sector which is reputed as ono of the most picturesque areas in the county. DELUREY HALL A glimpse of Dslurey Hall during the days activities. The increased enroll- ment and the cessation of construction during the war prompted the purchase of a number of private residences to supplement the inadequate dormitory space. Acquired in 1943 tor this purpose. Delurey Hall accommodates thirty students. Although not as improssivo in appearances as the other dormitories, its limited quarters promito a friendlier relationship among the students and it tends to doparl from the regimented life oi the larger residence halls.
