PlllElUlNl'E MlEElEl lu tht' Class uf 19453 OU WILL always remember that your college years were not spent in an academic isolation, far removed from the struggle of civilized peoples against a barbarism that seeks to destroy all that the free spirit of man holds of supreme worth. This war continues, and calls you now to active service. Some go to the armed forces to give of their physical and mental strength in the conflict of battle. Most of you go to a service equally essential for the preservation of a free civilization, and one that will call for a like unswerving faith, for loyalty and fortitude. To teach is front-line service for the great victory of peaceg for you fight directly against the forces upon which barbarism depends,-ignorance, hate, prejudice and superstition. You will keep alive the fire of divinity in man when darkness threatens to overcome humanity. My wish for you is that no cynicism or despair will ever quench this fire in your own hearts. Grover C. Bowman 4
