05 AND X oe NI x THIS PRODU o IS DEDICATED TO DR. MURVEL R. GARNER As an outstanding director, not only of the collegiate drama but of the greater drama of life, Dr. Garner holds a high place in the hearts of Earlham students. He excels as a professor of biology in the laboratory and the classroom, but he never permits the quest for a knowledge of nature to drive him or his class far from nature. , His love of hiking and field trips culminates in his able direction of the All College Outing and helps to make this event an annual delight. His ability as a camera artist has led to the establishing of an active camera club and two popular camera classes. Unperturbed and unruffled in any situation, he stands firm for the cause of truth. Believing in the worth of human personality and in the value of reason and adjustment as contributors to human happiness, Dr. Garner lives the part he directs. In his role as husband and father he is offering an example of the principles which he suggests to others. With a sympathetic understanding and helpfulness he is quick to offer advice to any troubled student who seeks his open office door. Thus his ideals are understood, appreciated, practiced, and passed on to future generations.
