To this great figure in the founding of Bethel College, we dedicate our l950 Graymaroon. A man of many interests, his activities covered a great variety of fields including the ministry, missions, immigration, education, journalism, deaconess work, relief, business, literature and music. He pioneered in many of these fields among Mennonite immigrants and rendered distinguished service in all. David Goerz had faith in the cause of Mennonite higher education. We owe him a debt of gratitude for his pioneer work in this field. Often misunderstood and misjudged, a man of sensitive nature, he still did not allow criticism or opposition to swerve him from a purpose on which he had set his heart. We as students of Bethel College owe him a debt of gratitude that can only be repaid by active support of this, our school, to which he gave the best that was his to give.

Some aspects of the picture are important and others are not so important, but so also are the experiences of life in general. Study, play, work and worship as expressed by individuals and groups are all a part of a true cross section of a realistic picture of our Bethel College school family. May the experiences of this year - those represented in this volume as well as others -- increasingly fit together into a wholesome pattern for all of us and make us all more useful citizens for this life and the next.
