We would like to welcome everyone back after what we hope was a profitable and enjoyable summer. To the new students of the Glass of 1960 we extend our deepest wishes for a very successful and rewarding four years to come. If your enthusiasm at Saturday's scrimmage and the activities fair is an indication for the future, then you are bound to give a welcome bo6st to student spirit and interest on the campus. We were all very much surprised to learn of the conflict between the college and the state highway commission over the proposed turn- pike extension. To all of us who are aware of the long struggle to fr ee the college from its strangling environment on the old campus3 this new threat comes as a bolt from the blue.
