                            T      his  year  the  Mosaic board  has  found  it  necessary  to  work  under  rather
                                    extraordinary  conditions.  Because  of  general  business  conditions  the
                                    board has had to proceed with considerable deliberation.  To economize
                                    without  lessening  the  beauty  of  our  year  book  and  detracting  from  its
                            usual  value  as  a  pleasant  reminder  of  past  days  at  Moses  Brown  has  been  the
                            major  problem  of  the  publication.
                                 Nevertheless,  the business staff, consisting of Alfred Stokes,  business  man­
                            ager,  Danforth  Mitchell,  Walter  Hanson,  Herbert  Adams,  Edmond  Schiller,
                            and Fred Wilcox, as assistants, have struggled valiantly and deserve exceptional
                            credit.  Richard  V.  Chase  was  elected  editor-in-chief,  and  George  Sprague,
                            managing  editor.  Richard  Scott  and  Fred  Wilcox  became  class  historians,  and
                            have acquitted  themselves  nobly.  Donald  Mayo,  Fangan Swent,  Edward  Hoyt,
                            Wilson Todd, William  Ferris, Richard Scott, Holden Nicholson, Walter  Davis,
                            and  John  Macomber,  as  contributing  editors,  have  conscientiously  written  up
                            the various  departments.  Richard  Merritt,  art editor,  and his  assistants, Gilbert
                            Morgan and  Elmer Strong,  have put much  hard work  into the plates,  under the
                            valuable guidance  of  Mr.  Cole.  The  numerous  photographs  were  procured  by
                            Samuel Waughtel, Jr., with his trusty camera, which accompanied him to dozens
                            of school  functions  in  the past year.  The advice and aid of  Mr.  Paxton,  faculty
                            adviser,  have  been  of  incalculable  assistance  to  each  and  every  member  of
                            the board.
                                 The goal  for which the board has constantly aimed  has been to produce,  in
                            spite  of  difficulties,  the  best  and  most  interesting  Mosaic  ever  printed.  Each
                            member  hopes  that  he  has  labored  to  good  advantage,  and  that,  when  the  fel­
                            lows of the Class of  1933 glance over these pages in years to come,  happy recol­
                            lections  of bygone days  will  come into  their minds  and  they will  remember  the
                            lasting  friendships  formed  at  Moses  Brown.  The  hope  that  this  Mosaic  will
                            give much pleasure to its readers, whether connected directly with the School or
                            not, has made each member of  the board  feel  a sense of pride and responsibility
                            in the  execution of his assignment.
