ni Ser oa eetesal aaoEs aap A rocket to the moon! What a wonderful dream to dream here in 1956. Who knows what lies beyond the confines of our atmosphere; who can say if there really are people on the moon; who would have thought, 50 years ago, that mankind would be as close to the secrets of outer space as he is today? 50 years ago, rocketships and jet planes were merely visions. In September of 1955 this book was a vision, too, an elusive dream in the back of the minds of the people who created it. Like the scientists and research men who are slowly trying to conquer the heavens, so does the staff of the ‘56 Citadel attempt to capture and preserve the spirit and feeling of the school. We who are graduating find it hard to say goodby—even to inadequate facilities. You, the undergraduates, may have a beautiful new campus, but it will be an impersonal structure. The spirit of- warmth and friendliness that is so much a part of our school here at Kalurah Temple will be missing. Like that spirit, we who write this now will be among the missing, and we hope you will miss us, too.

Dedication MR. MARION A. FORBES “Let’s keep pecking away’’—familiar words of encouragement to Mechanical stu- dents when the drawing room benches seem to get harder than usual and the ‘’whir-r-r’’ of the coke machine becomes unbearable. However, arousing enthusiasm and encouraging tired and thirsty Mechanicals is just a part cf the daily routine for our expert on stresses and strains, Mr. Marion A. Forbes. Mr. Forbes, an Associate Professor of Mechanical Technology, is one of the members of the staff who has a Professional Engineer’s license. A quick peek into his eventful past would reveal that he worked on the research for the Norden Bomb Sight (a highly secret project of World War II); was a project engineer for the celestial navigation trainer at Link Aviation, Inc.; and served as a consulting engineer, to name just a few of his varied experiences. At the present time, Mr. Forbes is busily at work as advisor to the social committee and also is an active participant in his church work. The dedication of this yearbook to you, Mr. Forbes, is just our way of saying ‘’thanks’’ thanks for being our friend.
