FOREWORD 

The Spring 1975 issue of Analecta combines the talents of those who 
previously contributed with promising newcomers. We were once again for-
tunate to receive outstanding work from Scott Bird, Phyllis Moore, and 
Dennis Wujcik. Newcomers like Judy Moon and Thayne Oppelt answer the 
hope for continuing talent resources. Phyla Phillips, who was the author 
of a short story in last spring's issue, appears this time as a poet. 

Some artists are becoming legendary: Henni Akkerman and Sue Hartup 
continue to display outstanding talent. In fact, there is so much talent in 
IUSB's Art Department that it astounds me. 

The basis for selecting material was originality and overall quality. 
All submissions were carefully considered by our editors and several 
readers; some material that had been rejected in the fall was returned to 
us rewritten and accepted this time. I hope this serves as inspiration to 
those whose material does not appear. Space limitations force us to view 
submissions on a competitive basis, and the response of students this time 
was overwhelming. Material selection for this issue was enhanced by the 
efforts of Bill Borden, Paul Whitfield, and Gayle Zubler. 

We were again flooded with artwork of excellent quality, thanks to 
Deloris Davisson, Dick Feingold, and Marie Remington, faculty members 
who were vital in encouraging student response. Marie Remington and 
Harold Zisla took the time to help us make decisions on artwork when 
high quality submissions made our choices difficult. 

We have Analecta's first student translations from a foreign language 
in this issue, thanks to Dr. Jacob Sudermann and Dr. Rogelio de la Torre. 

A last word of thanks goes to the students of Sl05 who designed 
covers especially for Analecta, and to our faculty advisor, Elaine Gottlieb 
Hemley, who gave freely of her time and talents. 

Analecta is a Greek word which means a collection of literary pas-
sages. That is fitting for this issue, though I feel we present much more 
than that. We have tried to carry on the trend set last year by Anna Skid-
more, who upgraded the magazine's overall quality. It is hoped that our 
editorial successors will take the lead and direct their efforts toward an 
even higher quality publication with more and more interest and contribu-
tions from the IUSB student body. It is not an easy task, but a worth-
while one. As editor, the pleasure has been mine; now, as a reader, I 
hope the pleasure is yours. Enjoy!
