President Andruss, Captain McGarry, Members of the Faculty and Alumni OF the College, Students, and Friends: As President of the Board of Trustees of the College I wish to take this opportunity of extending to you, Captain McGarry, as the representative of the United States Navy, our sincere thanks for this manifestation of appreciation of the efforts put forth by this institution in developing the young men sent us into etficicnt and capable members of our Navy during the last World Conflict. 1 need not tell you, sir, nor those in this au- dience, what an important part our Navy played in bringing victory to our arms. History will record the overwhelming odds under which they many times fought, of their valiant exploits in the face of what appeared to be insurmountable obstacles, and of the splendid victories they achieved. We are especially proud of the young men our Country permitted us to train, and of the untiring zeal exhibited by them and the Faculty of the College in the performance of the work assigned them. Both the students and their instructors were at all times filled with the spirit of patriotism and devotion to the cause of liberty. I know you will not be surprised at this when I remind you that it was in this Commonwealth that the Declaration of Independence and Constitution of the United States were framed and signed, and that Independence Hall, the Cradle of Liberty, nestles just a short distance over those hills. I consider it a signal honor, sir, to have been chosen as the representative of the College to accept this token of esteem tendered by our Navy. I assure you it will be given a conspicuous place among our trophies, one where it will never fail to be a con- stant inspiration to all those who enter these halls. I accept this award, sir, acting for and on behalf of the Bloomsburg State Teachers College, as a Memorial to the Service Men trained here and their instructors, and promise you that it will always be cherished as one of our dearest possessions. May Almighty God help us always to preserve the ancient land marks which our forefathers have set. 25
