Dedication To be successful, a person need not have acquired wealth or fame. These are merely the material symbols by which the world identifies success. The inner fulfillment of success comes through helping one’s fellow man to find a better way of life. To the world outside, this accomplishment may not be earthshaking, but to the individual it is all important. This is his source of happiness. Without happiness there is no success worth having. To the embodiment of this idea of success, the class of 1968 dedicates the ALEMBIC PHAR- MAKON to Professors H. Russell Denegar and Lauren Hanmer, both of whom know true happiness. Biographies II.
