The inside front cover of the June 1943 Howitzer featured an aerial view of the Central Area overlaid with selected lyrics from "Benny Havens, Oh!". The song commemorates a many storied tavern opened in the 1830s in Highland Falls and it's proprietor. From the West Point Scrapbook, 1871: "...Benny Havens opened a tavern on the river's edge below the cliffs of Highland falls, about a mile and a half from cadet barracks. To this tavern, after taps and against regulation, came many cadets whose names were later to be written on their country's roll of honor." Over 60 verses are known to exist.
