rilU- M PEGEESE Dedication P-VERY year die dass is placed nnder the able guidance of oae member of tbe faculty. Thus our dass has been aided, threacened, and enoiuiaged by four separate indi- viduals to whom we owe an equal and unquestionable debt of gratitude. But there has been one guiding light that has not dimmed for four years, one smile that has never faded. No darwy project, OT play has been completed without his aid. He is one of the unsung heroes without whom life at Dwi t would nm a litde less smoothly. When the faculty is on-edge and the administraticMi is at dieir wit ' s end, Bill has pre- served his patience and has been for the students, a shdter frMn the storm, or a rainbow after a shower, and a laugh at the end of a hard day. Let it iMX be thought that Bill inspires the insipid senti- ments above stated. It is only that our memories of his self- lessness can find no expression in frivolity or humor.

In Memoriam T rO eulog) ' can do justice to Miss Jean Nichol; no brief reminiscence can forever sustain her memory. But petr ' words need not suffice while the islands of Greece still rise above the sea, the seven hills of Rome display their treasures, and the sun casts kaleidoscopic patterns on the stone below the roses of Chartres. Time has even constructed a monument to her humor in the gargoyles and grotesques that she loved in Notre Dame, and in the mysteriously sar- donic expression of Verrocchio ' s David that she always ad- mired. Art is a perpetual attempt to capture the indescribable essence, to keep forever what can endure but one fleeting second. Perhaps it has finally succeeded, for the entire span of art pays tribute to the spirit that was Miss Nichol and distills that essence which words could never have hoped to preserve.
