Description

This is the last issue of the year before the seventy-fourth commencement events that were held in honor of College of Wooster President Charles F. Wishart, known as Prexy, for his 25 years of service. The first page features an article about the Ohio College Association honoring Wishart with a special tribute at their meeting. “The Shack” is said to be affected by the war saying the clientele is now dominantly female, and, “...that wars may come and go but the ‘Shack’ will carry on, leaving a poignant memory in the hearts of all true Woosterians.” In addition, page 2 has an ad for war stamps, as well as an appreciation of Wishart proclaiming, “Prexy's leaving creates a void which can never quite be filled.” Page three has a large photo of Wishart with the title "Wooster merchants congratulate Prexy on his 25 years at Wooster," many businesses showing their support are listed. Another image of President Wishart can be found on page four.
