"Where

are the pictures? ",

_{moans somebody,}

_and the staff gets panicky until

somebody

finds

them

just

where

the editor left them.

Frankly

we

hardly

know

what to say.

For

the past months the staff

has worked and played and found time to stick together the thousand odds and ends which goto

make

up an annual. It's been funny at times--and

at times rather exasperating. Pictures didn't turn out and ideas wouldn't click.

We

hope that you can look back over the annual and recall a year which has affected all of us, and that the faces and places you see, and the pictures of the things you did won't be forgotten.

There's not

much

else to say. We've done our best.

We

like it, so

if you like it, then we're satisfied.
