Within his gay and sparkling eyes a wealth of understanding lies. DR. EUGENE FREEL To you, friend, counselor, and guardian angel, we dedi- cate this record of our four years in college. We cannot hope, in these few words beneath your picture to begin to express the wealth of warmth and affection we feel for you. Only when we, as teachers, begin to guide the faltering steps of youth can we hope to repay the debt we owe to your kind heart and eternal patience. Knowing you has truly been a privilege.

TO THE CLASS OF 1953: Soon you are to join the long list of graduates who for more than a half century have gone from our college to become professional teachers. Never has our country needed teachers, educated and trained, as it does today. It will be your responsibility to pass on the great cultural and ethical heritage of our Western Civilization. It will be your duty to implant a working faith in the freedom of Democracy and to develop another generation who can think freely, clearly and without prejudice, and with sustained umm or i wills bring to reality in personal and social living the Faith of our Fathers. The College has striven to give you knowledge and vision, and the beginning practice in the Art of Teaching. Out of the experience of the college years, you may grow to full stature as a person and make your own contribution in the creation of a world free and more secure. May you meet the challenge of living courageously and never give up when problems seem insoluble. I wish you success in every undertaking. GROVER C. BOWMAN President ll il 32- g '--sb ff..j..,, 'L
