Dedication... A man of authority, yet one who understands; a man of humor, yet one who is wise; a scholar, yet one who loves spor t; a gentleman; a teacher. This is Mr. William Telford Turk, and to this man we dedicate our annual. Mr. Turk, who was born in Homer, Georgia, attended the University of Georgia where he received his A.B. degree. After this, he studied in France at the University of Rennes, later returning to his alma mater where he served as instructor in the Department of Romance Languages while completing work for the Masters degree. While a student at the University of Georgia he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa, a national honor fraternity. Never satisfied with his own preparation in his chosen field, he has periodically continued study in institutions including his alma mater. Golumbia University, University of Alabama, and the University of Tennessee. Before coming to Blue Ridge in 1941, Mr. Turk taught at Peacock School, Atlanta, Georgia; Paris Junior Gollege, Paris, Texas; Rugby Academy, New Orleans, Louisiana; an d Sch¬ reiner Institute, Kerrville, Texas. In his twenty-four years as a member of the Blue Ridge faculty, Mr. Turk has become a beloved tradition, generously bestowing the light of his intellect and the warmth of his personal¬ ity upon one and all. Balancing sharpness of tongue, when needed, with constant and affec¬ tionate solicitude for the welfare of his students he has led, encouraged, and prodded generations of students into a respect for scholarship and a love of the classics. In their hearts remain cherished memories of one of whom it may truly be said that “gladly would he learn, and gladly teach.” 5
