Satsuki Uyeno Miss Maud Spencer Joke Editor Circulation Editor Assistant Circulation Editor Typists Adviser It was night. The crickets were singing with the violent calls of the bullfrogs: the moon had not risen. A dusty old tramp was treading wearily down the road, a cane in his hand tap. tap. tap. He looked confusedly to the right and left, so fatigued that he sat down. Now the curtain of black night fell. Thirst and hunger en- veloped the victim of poverty and he hung his head. Suddenly and miraculously he saw a flame in the distance the bright glow almost reflected in his eyes, warmed the discouraged heart and hastened the blistered feet toward the scarlet blaze. The flame was a burning torch near the crossroads of the tiny village. Nearby lived an old woman whom everyone called, Grandma Rose. who generously aided the suffering passerby. Here was good advice, medicine, and courage for the lowly. Here was the torch of love shedding its radiance to humanity. The monthly newspaper. The Torch, has radiated the warmth and fellowship of college life. The spiritual, social, mental, and physical development of each person has been integrated by this publication. It has been as a tiny wick in the lamp of knowledge uncovering con- cealed talents and fostering interest in journalism. The hungry spirit of intellectualism of each student has been fed perpetually by con- tributors to The Torch. A new understanding of college ideals, a boosting of morale, an awakening in college activities, and finally an aim of democracy has been brought about: that of the freedom of the press. It is the torch of the crossroads in college life: it brings joy, advice, news, humor, confidence, admiration, and love into our youthful spirits. Finally The Torch has induced loftier ambitions and fulfilled a command of God: Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free. Page Twenty-nine
