SCICHCE Together Pegasus and Bellerephon slew the Chimera, and it was then that Pegasus was free from ignorance. “He flew upward and onward to the ancient stables of Zeus where he was harnessed to the thunder car.” Now he controls the rainbearing clouds which descend from heaven and send lightning, thunder, and power to the earth. Now we know some of the century-old mystery of the uncanny power of Pegasus. We saw life in its smallest dimension under the microscopic glass. We saw the giant planets of the skies through the telescope, and we listened to Miss Hill speak of radio-sensitive instru- ments from which we can hear the presence of the stars. We were curious and we wanted to understand. We examined a cat’s brain so that we could see how an animal thinks. We mixed elements and ana- lyzed compounds in order to understand the complex order of the ele- ments of the earth. And always we wished to grasp the pattern of nature and to theorize and prove our ideas about the world in which we live. And now that we have become curious, we can continue to learn the secrets of Pegasus as we leave Wheaton and become older mem- bers of our century. We can help man to slay the Chimera.

Psychology There was a magic looking glass on the side of the mountain from which Pegasus saw man from many different angles. For many years, he smiled when he watched man try to understand his own behavior. He laughed at Cleopatra when she wondered why Mark Antony left her and went back home. He smiled to see Narcissus become powerless be- cause of his looking-glass complex. But Pegasus began to feel sorry for man and he started to teach man his secrets with ink blots and dogs that respond to gongs. We learned to call these ink blots Rorsharch tests. We learned to give these tests. We heard speakers at Psychology Club and helped out at the Foxboro Mental Hospital. And so, we have become a little wiser, for now that we can better understand ourselves, like Pegasus, we can even smile at ourselves, too. MR. SHIPLEY MISS CONSAV AGE MR. GILBERT Psychology Club: E.
