 Dedication “And the exalted shall be humbled And the humble shall be exalted.” (Matthew 23:12) We dedicate this, the 1953 Edition of the Alembic Pharmakon, to a man with whom we have been proud and fortunate to associate, and to a gentleman whose conduct has always manifested itself in a keen sense of propriety and humility. To Professor Burdette G. Dewell we say simply that it is our sincere wish that the dedication of this yearbook impart some measure of our thanks and appreciation for all you have given us. The Class of 1953 Burdette Dewell was born in Windham, New York in 1903. He graduated from A.C.P. in 1923 and remained for eleven years to teach. During this time he married Mildred Vickers, A.C.P. class of ’27. In 1934 Mr. Dewell opened a store in Grand Gorge, N. Y., but the urge to teach became too great. He returned to Albany, to the New York State Teachers College, to acquire his Masters Degree in 1938. From there he went to the Catskill High School, and on to the Windham High School where he taught general science. In 1947 he returned to A.C.P. as our Professor of Pharmacy. At present Mr. and Mrs. Dewell live in Delmar with three of their four children. One son is a dairy farmer near Binghamton, another is a student of the Albany Medical College, while a third son and their only daughter attend grade school. « 5 »
