W. B. JuDD, Registrar N. C. Beaslev, Dean Several years ago the Midlander staff abandoned the pohcy of dedicating the annual to individuals. most cordial wishes for continued experience in the posi- tions which each has loyally filled. The staff this year would like to set aside this policy for the moment to recognize the outstanding contribution to two members of the administrative staff who are observing their silver anniversary as members of the MTSC faculty. Dean N. C. Beasley, counselor and friend of students, has served as Dean of the College for twenty-five years. He has aided the teaching profession of Tennessee and the nation in important official positions, not the least of which has been his twenty years of consecutive service as secre- tary of the MTEA. The second member of the present staff who is rounding out twenty-five years of service is Registrar W. B. Judd. For many years he served as professor of economics, and yet maintains his deep interest in the social studies. We would like to take this opportunity, also, to thank all those who had any part in making this yearbook pos- sible. Particularly we would like to thank the Nashville Banner and its editor, Charlie Moss; and King Features Syndicate and cartoonist Mort Walker for their cooperation in making possible the use of Bettle Bailey in our book. Beetle is a comic strip character appearing daily in the Banner. His experiences as a college undergraduate and later m the Army have paralleled the experiences of many collegians. We would also like to thank the students, faculty, photographers, engravers, printers, and the Midlander staff for their patience, hard work, and fine cooperation in producing this book. We have enjoyed the opportunity to work and serve you in this capacity, and hope that you will enjoy this, the 1952 Midlander. To these faithful and friendly members of the MTSC family the Midlander staff extends congratulations and The Editors
