IN WAR TIMEhave continued to practice athletics still

fairly and squarely. Despite the fact that

our interests have oftentimes shifted to

other channels, we preserve our organi-

zations and attempt to make them even

stronger. Despite high costs and the many

economic problems war brings, we do not

wish to relinquish our features but retain

them even in a more simple form.

Yes, we must admit that Appalachian

has changed physically, but that undying

spirit still remains—remains to welcome

such a spirit throughout the world.

is this spot that one's very soul and

nature is seemingly cleaner and more pure

from the contact. Thriving by and echo-

ing the merry laughter and carefree

atmosphere created by the presence of

youth, strong with the desire and com-

every phase of American life even the

most remote and secluded places has made

our Appalachian no exception. Our con-

ditional spirit despite the inevitable" and

through persistence we have succeeded.

Despite troubled and confused minds, we

have continued to study and gain knowl-

edge. Despite innumerable handicaps, we
