Excerpt from The 1949 Murmurmontis Black marks on a white ground that is all these words would mean to a savage who might glance at them for a moment and then away. Without a doubt he would stare with awe at the pictures found on these pages, but soon his interest would fall on other things. To you. The Wesleyan student, they are something more. With no other guide than mere printer's ink on wood-pulp. You will again be able to relive the days of a former year. For you they are building a bridge across time and space. A bridge that forever will connect the present to the past. A bridge that grows longer as the years go by and will serve as the main artery to the year of '49 on Wesleyan's campus.
