Clemmons It is with a deep sense oflove and pride that our Yearbook be dedicated to the sacred memory of two loyal and conscientious members of the Arkan- sas Baptist College Familyg whose love, care, influence, brave and beautiful lives helped to mold the lives of so many young women and young men, With'God's assistance. Pride in a work well done, true to our ideal of "Up-holding a High Standard" - these stalwart souls gave to us and to the world the best they had. To Dr. Beckley, a devout Christian wife, mother, and a graduate, and a most loyal servant of Arkansas Baptist College for some thirty-seven years, and to Mrs. Clemmons, an eminent teacher and brilliant scholar, who gave most of her lifetime in the Classroom, including seven years at A.B.C ......... we gladly and proudly dedicate the 1973 Yearbook of Arkan- sas Baptist College. "Thoughts of you will never be few - The A.B.C. Family will always remember you."

An opportunity of being a great man or Woman, a chance at infinity, a chancetodomorethan anyhave done. Nothing stands in the way of seeing what hasen'tbeen seen,ofchartering an ambition to Whatever it may lead, and following. Etched deepin the soul is thatwill, thatneed to find the thing you really Want to do, to be. And over all is the cloudof uncertainty. 'K ' I, HEI . , 1 MY MOMENT WITH GOD Dear God: Each morning that I Wake up, I give you thanks for another day oflifeg Each evening that I return to my bed, I ask forgiveness for the sins I have com- mitted. Dear God, I thank you for the love you have given me to shine upon othersg I thank you for the love that is shined upon me. I thank you for this earth,- which I am a part of, and for all mankind, which is a part of you. And, dear God, I give thanks for this gift of life that you have presented me With, which will forever be a reminder of your love. t Amen. L .Q Administration ' 19- gi.r .1 '. .A l Mrs. Dorris R.

Arms of teachers are long, but none reaches past Friday. Friday is freedom, is life, is the opening door. Monday does come, but there is time to relish being free, not enough time though, not quite ...... but there never is enough time. Funny thing, that. I 1 fx Q- , 4, 13,4 1 .-4h,f,v .

Lingering in the felt and velvet luxuriousness and glory ofit all, they are rending their hearts into bits ofburning flesh until the end, and long years after they flow in the beauty of the joy. Youth is doing' what youth does best - having a magnificently wonderful time of it. They are living life the way it's supposed to be breathed, felt, and enjoyed - with gusto, in the vital vein-bursting pleasure of being- within life itselfg forever opposite from the pale white world of the week's work, not thought of a moment.

The unre-ality of accomplishments on pieces of paper now relinquishes its pedestal, drops its false veil, sheds its shield, and reality looms. Of all events, this will be a sobering moment, a moment of seeming ending to a wearisome struggle. Dingy nights of studying facts will be gone, now there are the facts themselves, unrelenting challenges- which acute minds will face or perish. Ingrained in the beaming faces will be the light of accomplishment, little thought given them to the oblong and eliptical pathes that must be blazed. Robert McGhee - President Birdie Ballard Elem.
