1931 PEGASUS path is now flanked by an imposing brick gateway, harmonizing with all the build- ings and topped by ornate lamps of colonial design. This gateway is the gift of four of the classes. Student and alumni generosity is responsible for the impressive stand of structural steel on the newly laid- out athletic field. Like the Washington College of the past 148 years of conscientious effort, the Washington College of the future will strive to continue to fulfill the prophecy of General Washington expressed in his let- ter to William Smith of August 18, 1782: Seventeenth President When that period shall arrive, when we 1 -t 1 1 1 c V -11 1919-1923 can hail the blest return of peace, it will add to my pleasure to see this infant seat of learning rising into consistence and proficiency in the sciences under the nurturing hands of its founders.

1931 PEGASUS To the Class of 1931 S President, in greeting the seniors of 1931, I want to express to them two hopes: I hope first, that in perusing these pages now, and even more particularly ten years from now, they may have the joy of living again the glorious incidents of college life which will more and more take on a halo of splendor as college years recede. I hope second, that every member of the class may have put such earnest effort into his college work that, not only now, but particularly in the years to come, he may experience what every good craftsman enjoys — perhaps one of the most lasting satisfactions in life — an increasing sense of significant tasks accom- plished with zeal, imagination and roundness, which made their accomplishment in fact the pursuit of a fine art. Paul E. Titsworth.
