And then the plans took shape, growing with every day in the year. ‘The first weeks at chapel when we donned the scholarly black cap and gown of the Seniors, and with them came the knowled ge that the year could and would be the best for everyone. We all looked proudly at each other as we waltzed nonchalantly through the front door of the chapel with a black tassel dangling over the left eye. Carley, Marguerita, Skip, and Jimmy returned to the fold to add the inter- national flavor already supplied by Claude, Joy, and Seaton. And then the serious business of seminars began. ‘The mystery as to what went on there was soon discovered—more books, more papers, more talks, and more of your favorite professor. The Fall swept by with senior coffees, step singing, Sunday night discussion groups, sports victories, Barbie’s tennis cup, the riding meet, discussions on the Honor System, Rushlight’s renewed vigor, Pressboard’s publicity growth, Bobbie Kellner’s magnificent performance as ‘Thomas A. Beckett in “Murder in the Cathedral,” Wheatones performing, Murph and Angie in chapel, the choir broadcast, and Granny’s car, Napoleon, trolleying everything from Psyche speak- ers to laundry. With Christmas approaching, the Nativity Play with Mary Lou Scott as a lovely madonna and Sue Rippel an authentic Joseph brought the spirit to a wonderful height. Caroling and Lum’s ever glorious “Ave Maria” added to the festivities. The day of graduation grew nearer, and despite the frightening aspects of gen- erals, we came to look at the campus and all it meant to us more clearly. We saw in every familiar face and place a thing to cherish while it was still ours. ‘The air was full of all that we had learned of living together, what the world of Wheaton with Pan supervising had given us—the parties, the people, the clubs, the causes, the traditions—the lamp burned late and built them in us to carry into the larger world ahead of us. 23
