TO 1945 Like its predecessors, Nike, 1945, is destined to be- come a book of reference and remembrance. For a while you will not need it to remind you how Sally, Anne or Phoebe looked, or what you wore in senior year. Nor will you require it to recall those high-lighted events and incidents that ‘‘simply thrilled’’ you or made you laugh or weep. The pleasant paths and places on campus now seem etched forever on your mind. But the day will come...To paraphrase slightly Watt’s fine old hymn: “Time, like an ever-rolling stream Bears memories too away They fly, forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day.” Then you will need to take down from the shelf—or per- haps retrieve from the attic!—this yearbook if you are to recapture the faces, facts—and fictions—of your college years. 2 Nike, 1945, will serve other purposes: It will furnish amusement for your children and grandchildren on rainy afternoons, for, believe me, you will look as funny to them as you think we looked twenty-five years ago, and as we in turn think our mothers did in the ‘‘Gay Nine- ties.’’ For the historian of Wheaton, writing at the pinnacle of the century, Nrxz, 1945, will be a social docu- ment, chock full of evidence of what the Wheaton girl in the war-torn Forties looked like and what she did.
