a tribute to dr. martin June 1950 brought Dr. LeRoy A. Martin, educated at Tennessee Wesleyan, University of Chattanooga, Drew, Boston, and Harvard Universities, and for tvk enty years a distinguished minister in the metropolitan area of New York, back to his native Tennessee and the presidency of Tennessee Wesleyan College. The Armed Services claimed many students, funds were slow in coming in, and hope was at an all-time low. President Martin set about working hard to keep Wesleyan alive and to enlist the interest of church and community in the life of Wesleyan. Four years of hard work, with a dream of building a college to serve this growing area, have resulted in Wesleyan ' s being raised to Senior College status, its physical facilities being greatly improved, its student body increased, and its friends in church and community being increased in an amazing manner. As the Athens Chamber of Commerce honored him this year by naming him Man of the Year, we too, salute him as the finest. niinniiHr ' -:. T r f 21
