Excerpt from Pot Pourri, 1942 Has tried not duplicate last year's book, but to change, to experiment, and to improve for the better. Although the 1941 book was a prize winner, it is hoped that the new pot pourri will do even better, and that in future years the Class of 1942 will find in this book, especially the feature section, a worthy reminder of their under.

Excerpt from Coraddi, Vol. 46: May, 1942 John turned toward the s10pe below. Dark shapes stood out with the fast-breaking dawn. Over to the left were three lights. Another sprang up and glowed dimly. Taking a deep breath John raised the bugle to his lips; and a sharp call swept over the camp. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Coraddi, Vol. 47: October, 1942 I haven't had time to be homesick yet. Joan Martin, a junior who is my student adviser, has planned something to keep me busy all the time. And when I get home at night, I'm too tired to do anything but sleep. Last night I donned my white jersey evening dress and went to a kind of glorified tea party that my church group gave. I had a fair time, but it sure does seem funny to go out all -by yourself in an evening dress, and without a date. All of which reminds me, I know I promised to go to church every Sunday, but it's all the way across town and you have to get up in time for Sunday School if you want to get a ride, but I'll make it as often as I can. Had an awful sweet special from Bill waiting for me when I got here night before last. He said that he was going to see you after I left. Be sure to let me know if he comes over, and tell me what you talk about. We register day after tomorrow and upper classmen the day after that. They are beginning to come back already. Never have I seen so many girls in one spot in my whole life. I'll try to get Dr. Carr like Sis said to, but my adviser had him and says that he is the hardest p'rof on the whole English faculty. With all that has been happening, it does look like I could find more to write about than this, but I'll write you again soon. Please send me the belt to my blue wool dress; I won't need it yet, but I forgot to pack it. And I tore my stockings on a dining room chair. If you have a spare pair around, you can 'send those too. Take. Care of my gold fish. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Viennese composer Julius Bürger (also named Burger (1897-1995)) intersected with many important figures of 20th century western classical music. Despite success in some of the world's leading opera and broadcasting houses, Burger's true path as a composer was forever altered by the National Socialism. Burger studied with Franz Schreker in Vienna and Berlin. On Bruno Walter's recommendation, Burger later joined Artur Bodanzky as assistant at the Metropolitan Opera in New York. In 1929 he became Otto Klemperer's assistant at Berlin's Kroll Opera, returning to Vienna after Hitler's appointment as Chancellor in 1933. En route to Vienna from London in 1938, Burger and his wife foresaw what lay in store for Austria and detrained in Paris, abandoning their luggage. In 1939 Burger relocated to America and in 1949 he rejoined the staff at the Metropolitan Opera, starting a close working friendship with Dimitri Mitropoulos. His mother and four of his brothers were murdered in the Holocaust. A fifth brother's fate is still unknown.
