Jt harmony known only to one HI sing you a song of college days, a single theme drawn from a varied collection of mixed chords, tempos and moods. From all places its notes, torn from scattered voices, gather, arrange them- selves and enter, some to grope, sortie to stumble, others to glide freely, but all from their places to enrich the growing modulation. Skilled hands appear, to guide, to coax, to shape. Shades of dissonance are chipped away: the notes ring clearer and truer. A beat falls into a rhyme and iveaves its way forward with easy grace. It finds a quick tempo, breaks off into a sudden ticist. then checks itself and flows into a measured, solemn chant. It judges, it dis- covers, and it rejects. It pauses to listen, then it sings again with a sound more pure and certain. The theme drives forward, crashes into the iveighty and slips into the obscure, but begins again to swell. The rhythm surges more profound and even, ready to enter into the future. The composition is complete: the melody is one. our song of our years, our song of Merrimack. Jrorn buildings does our song burst Our music is formed within these walls and it tells of them and of the long hours spent in classes . 6 . • ***• wr - tt**.V* '**#V§** * " r: r : *j% •* .r-lPi *« • ^ 'r i . ^ i« jCoSv muL- and of the endless notes and of the restlessness of hot days and of white towering columns and also of the serenity and quietness of holy places .
