THE DARTMOUTH PICTORIAL
November, 1930

Since its first number five years ago, the Dartmouth Pictorial has earned popularity until it has attained a ranking position among the undergraduate publications. And the small body of alumni who have become acquainted with this magazine has been steadily growing as the alumni find in the Pictorial a medium for keeping the everchanging Dartmouth before their eyes—hundreds of miles away.

Last year witnessed further progress of this publication. Pictures of the many new college buildings that are so much talked about today, photographs of the beautiful country in and about Hanover, featured in sections in blue and green inks, cutouts of individual athletes, all impressed upon a grade of paper that takes such pictorial matter much better than any used previously, a new cover design—these and other innovations aroused favorable comments among students and alumni.

This year the Pictorial is continuing its program further, and as a part of its policy, announces an enlargement in the amount of pictorial matter in proportion to advertising space. Additional photographic equipment is at its disposal this fall, which will enable it to picture even better the traditions of Dartmouth life—Delta Alpha, the Football Rush, Carnival, Old Timers' Day, Commencement, and the new Green Key Prom. The color section will be extended and other features added—including pictures of Admiral Byrd's visit to Hanover, intimate glimpses of the older and better known members of the faculty, the college miniaturegolf champion, etc. Under the guidance of a professional engraver, these will be set up in the magazine to give it a more diversified display, through colored insets, ovals, cutouts, and other photographic devices.
