GUTEKUNSTS For the past three years, Mr. and Mrs. Gutekunst have diligently striven to keep McKendree going forward in war, as in peace. They are always on hand when something needs to be done, and are always deeply interested in cooperating with the students in anything they undertake. It has been their constant supervision and cooperation that has made possible the sending of Reviews to all McKendree servicemen, both at home and abroad. Without their support there would have been no annual. It is to these two fine Christian leaders, that we dedicate our 1945 McKendrean.
