Dean's Greeting , ' 1 l l -' HY i .. mei? In the year 1999 a former graduate of Connors sits in his favorite chair, fondly turns the pages of his 1949 CON-RAH! and reminisces! There are the buildings I lived in, worked in, and played in. But they are more than just buildings to me-they are living monuments. An important part of my life was spent in them. There are the faculty members, the president, and other employees of the college. Some of them I didn't like much in 1949. Some of my dislikes were real, some imagined. Anyway, now I prefer to think of all of them as good friends of mine. And those were my classmates. What treasured memories pass in review as I look at their faces! That student was my room-mate, this one my favorite dancing partner, and the one with the mischievous smile was my best pal. And there are the pictures of our athletic teams, our beauty queens, our dances, and all our clubs and organizations. And those delightfully silly candid camera shots! Ah, those were the days! Like this imaginary soliloquy of the Connors grad, I hope that in the years to come you can look back on this school year as being one of the most pleasant and profitable you JW!! A. B. Childress, Dean have ever known.

These things seem like milestones in growing up. But the thing that really means you have checked in as an adult is when you register and get ready to cast your first vote. In our form of government people express themselves and their will through political parties. Since that is true when one becomes a voter, one must choose the political party which most nearly represents that one's point of view. t I have just had an experience which comes to few people in their life time. It was my pleasure and privilege to join the Presidential Party on the train at McAlester. I was a part of the procession which came to Spaulding Park. I was privileged to sit on the stage with the President of the United States, the leader of the Democratic Party, Harry S. Tru- man. I was impressed by the sincerity and Democracy of this great leader of the Demo- cratic Party. I was accepted and made to feel welcome along with governors and other state officials. You ask me how I am going to cast my first vote: I will tell you. I am going to vote for Harry S. Truman and a straight Democratic ticket with the firm belief that it will be a vote for good government and good times at home and for peace and better times throughout the wor1d. l . ugh H..
