Greetings From The PresidentAll of us on The Hill are looking forward to Homecoming Day with 11 greatdeal of interest and enthusiasm. The return of many Alumni is all that is necessaryto make it a day long to be remembered. Plans are under way to make everyprovision for your comfort, enjoyment, and entertainment.The campus will be decked by nature in its most colorful garb and by studentswith displays of ingenious craftsmanship, artistic and otherwise.Personally, I look forward to the pleasure of greeting you and entering intothe real Western Maryland fellowship that always charactertizes HomecomingDay.COVER STORY-The moving of Ward Memorial Arch in 1937 carried with it a few incidentsone of which is related here.The chief stone mason decided to mark every stone with a number which would indicate itsrelative position in the arch to facilitate reassembling the arch after it had been dismantled,A mixture of lamp-black and vinegar was used as a marking compound, As an accompanying gesture,the foreman made a rough pencil sketch of the complete arch before any of the blocks wereremoved,The arch was taken down in late fall, Each numbered block was placed in the grass downat the old Prep School (now Levine Music Hall), It was Spring before reconstruction wasstarted, Severe winter weathering had removed from the blocks every trace of numbering,The experienced eye of the foreman guided by his rough sketch was the only thing which enabledhim to direct his workman in rebuilding the arch exactly as it had stood with but a fewstones out of place,
