THE COVER

"Playback on an Ancient Bull-Session" is the title given to this drawing by Abner Dean '31, who with tongue in cheek has done a dozen cartoons in this issue to illustrate "Time Out ... Reunion." His drawings last appeared in our magazine in May 1946, and we are happy and privileged to present his amusing reunion feature this month.
