One year ago, in the Bomb of ' 52, we described the Frileys as the most popular couple on campus which we explained was due to their active part in college social life. This year we want to amplify this statement to include some of the enduring iin- pro emcnts they ha e made in the more serious aspects of college li ing. In his final year as president, we hope to have demon- strated to I5r. Friley oiu gratitude. D R. CH. RLES EDWIN FRILEY was appointed ISC president in 193(i. latmching a trementloiis program for college improvement — financially, educationally and culturally. Because ol this imdcrtaking the college eitrollmcnt has nearly doubled. If the student of ' 36 were to pay a isit to liis college home, it is likely he wotdd vonder what impressi c ne v college had grown tip in place of the ISC he knees ' . LIpon second glance he wotild see the sotnxe of his conftision to be the mimerotis new btiildings constrticted in his absence. He would marvel at the massi ' e addition to Friley Hall making it one of the largest men ' s dor- mitories in the world. The modern architecttire of the Electrical Engineering and Agronomy btiildings wotild lea e him breathless vith llieir beatity. . nd a tri]) to tlie .Atomic Research Instittite votlld comince tlic stiideiu his alma mater vas still among the leaders in the Held. The first edticationallv ownetl and operated tele ' ision station, W ' OI-TV. with its special ne v btiilding, wotild inte rest otir visitor. He votild be told the foresight of Dr. Friley had made this venture into the field of edticational entertainment possible. Incltided on otir guest ' s tour would be the two new dtiplex Home Management houses vhere Home Economics stti- dents learn the most efficient vays to manage and care for a family. He s ' otild want to see the modern new Foods and Ntitrition kitchens where potential homemakers and professional home economists are trained. Also attracting the attention of otir ' isitor votild be the ntimerotis temporary buildings constrticted during the post-war years to handle the infltix of homecoming veterans. Before our guest ' s departure, he vould be con inced that under Dr. Friley Iowa State has become one of the foremost leaders in the field of teclinical education and research. II

What is college? What is life at Iowa State College? To most of us it is a mental, social and moral challenge Avhich forms the nucleus around which our college society revolves. Oin- life here is not only glorious and impressionable but is a pause and preparation for what lies ahead. All phases of college coidd be compared with the roots of a plant. Always probing — always seeking. Sometimes seeking the small and insignificant and other times the large and purposefid — and yet all of these runners relate to the connnon core which composes our college education. Whether a mighty oak or a scrawny milkweed results from these roots depends entirely ujjon the indi idual. We of the yearbook staff ha ' e attempted to create a book which will not only be cherished now but in the ensuing years. We realize that college means different things to different people and it woidd be im- possible to allow each item the relati e importance given by the indi- vidual. We have, however, attempted to dwell briefly upon the high points of this year and within the co ' er of the 1953 Bomb we hope you will find pictures and text which will help recreate the mood and the spirit which you experienced in college.
