W e Owe To Thee—
Another year is ending, umilher Moving-Up
Day is at hand. There is present the usual deluge
of memories, of sentiment, tempered somewhat by
the fact that this is a war-year. Again, this is the
last issue of the STATK COM.F.GK NKWS under the
old regime, and this is the last week for the 1944
administration of all the various branches of Slate
College activity.
