lll Iilflllllilllilll How can we begin to ex- press the loss we have suf- fered in the untimely assas- sination of the thirty-fifth President of the United States, John Fitzgerald Ken- nedy? This act of grotesque indignity has pierced the hearts of our nation and the world itself. The cause of his death, ignorance and bigotry, was his avowed enemy. ln fight- ing this, John F. Kennedy realized the paramount im- portance of education and understanding in this bat- tle, hence came the Peace Corps, the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, and, above all, the spirit of understanding. He was the first President that our generation has ever really known. Such a sharp, vibrant appearance as he had was never before seen in the White House. He brought something so dif- ferent to the Presidency that it seems almost impossible to sum it up in any eulogy long or short. The loss of this man is without question immeasur- able. The magnitude of ex- cellence and intellectual character which flowed from him will flow in turn in the tears of a weeping nation and world.
