DR. FRiCIS P. m}in Gentlemen of fhe Senior Class: In fhe pleasant course of the normal years, a college annual is little more than a sweet agency of remembrance, to give permanence of record to the faces and the episodes that crowd the undergraduate epoch. For the Class of 1943, we hope, the memory of Washington and Lee will be as rich in quiet and unpretentious suggestion as for any group. But something more will speak through these pages, something of the greatness of heart and the boldness of spirit that, char- acteristic of your Alma Mater in every period of crisis, remain as your own assets of inspiration. Draw deeply upon the assets of honor and faith and sacrifice; and go forth unafraid, go forth proud that you will write another chapter of comparable glory. FRANCIS P. GAINES, President.

Sb. ' ecember 7, 1942, saw the dawn of a new war-time Washing- ton and Lee University, The past two years had seen an accelerated program, the adaptation of courses to the war effort and a some- what reduced student body. The first anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, however, was the day when the Army School for Special Service came to the campus signifying a new and different W. L. for the duration.
