Standing in the foreground is Kenneth Wynne, '46, who headed the V~12 Unit's band when he was at Trinity. The V~12 program will close at Trinity at the end of this coming October. The Unit will have been with us since July, 1943. Our prospective civilian enrollment for the fall is hard to estimate at this time- perhaps the student body will number about eighty. It is not hard to see, under these circumstances, how great a help the Alumni have been to the College in con ~ tributing generously to the Alumni Fund.
