FGREWGRD Actors, Musicians, Newsgatherers, Intellectuals, Choristers, Orators, Lettermen, and Artists are just a few of the many kind of students whose active ities compose the substance of the Amnicola. This volume has as its theme the social calendar, and each activity has been placed in the appropriate month. Though its size has been slightly reduced because of the lower enrollment and rising costs, it embodies many new features and improvements, such as the new cover style, layyouts, frontispiece, and the increased number of candid shots. By compiling the outstanding interests and activities, both academic and social, we have tried to preserve as many as possible of the myriad memories of scenes, friends, and fellowships which we have gathered through our years at Wilkes. Because of the uncertainty of the outcome of the Hcold war and the United Nations' upolice action in Korea, many of our number will enter miliy tary service, some for the second time in a decade. During this period of cris- is, truly times that try menis souls, the world trembles as it echoes to the sound of marching feet, bursting bombs, and swift jet planes, while the threat of the quick and decisive blow of an atomic attack is ever present. On the other hand, crisis and uncertainty are not new to the graduates of 1951. The majority of us were born in the midst of the depression and were reared during the years of World War II. Still, the fact that we have come through relatively unscathed is a good indication that we, as individuals and as a nation, can cope successfully with whatever adversity Fate designs, and at the same time, can make the most of every opportunity.
