For, though this book will be seen by many people Without the school, it is for those boys and girls who are now on the campus and whose lives this year have been lived here, that this book is intended.

We have commanded the arts of layout, writing, and photography to. build this book. May its beauty recommend it to be cherished as are the ageless memories of the vital year it describes.

Dedication We dedicate this book to Howard Red Blair, S.T,C.'s man of the year. Have you met this forceful, sandy-haired dyna- mo who came to us from Ohio State University as our new Athletic Director and head football coach? He's the husky mentor who put this college back on the map in the football sport. He took a large squad composed of unpolished freshmen and last year's losing team, and gave them courage, pep, and new methods of razzle-dazzle football that led to third place in the lVl.l.A.A. and a reputation for good sportsmanship. To the student body, with whom he mixed, he gave high hopes of a football team to write home about. He injected a new spirit into pep assemblies by making each of us feel that it was our personal responsibility to show spirit and enthusiasm at the next game. lf you do meet a man full of nervous energy, with a retentive memory Qfor he never forgets a namej, and a democratic spirit, just mark our word, you've met S.T.C.'s man of the year, Coach Howard Blair.
