Deans IT HAS BEEN INTERESTING, Seniors, to plan, work, and learn together. Your four years at Elon are a good beginning. You have tackled many phenomena — music, painting, poetry; health problems; the woods, stones and stars; radio and other ethereal mysteries. Of these, continue learning; learn some new worth while item every day; they unveil Divine meaning and expand your concept of God. The trained and exalted mind gives world service; it radiates joy; and it finds serene and lasting peace. May that. Seniors of ' 45, ever be yours. Sincerely, Mary L. Phares, Dean of W omen and Head of Department of Education and Psychology, Elon College. FOUR YEARS is not a long time; it took much longer than that for the Colorado River to wear away the soft stone cliffs of the Grand Canyon; it took longer than that to build the pyramids; it took longer than that to perfect the linotype machine. But four years of one ' s LIFETIME is a period not to be ireated lightly. Four years of study, exercise, and fun are now behind you, and you go forth from the campus of Elon College with the stamp of her life upon you. Because of these four years you will ever be known as Elon Men and Women. The glory of Elon lies in the alliludes, deeds and accomplishments of those who have gone out as her sons and daughters. May you always be proud of this, your college, and may she ever be proud of you! Sincerely, Daniel J. Bowden, Dean of Men and Head (.1 ihc Department of i ' lnlosophy and Religion.

The President THE INDOMITABLE spirit of Americiin youths to cany on in peace and in war and their determination to prepare themselves for any eventuality is characteristic of our forefathers who cleared our lands, Iniilt their homes and made our country great. In the members of the class of ' 45 we find that same spirit of aggres- siveness and determination. Many of your classmates, at the call of their countiy, broke ranks and are today out in the thick of the fight. You, too, are on the firing line and are making your contribution to our program for complete freedom and permanent peace. You have not only been loyal to Alma Mater Init you have been cooperative and helpful in campus responsibilities. You have brought much to us. As you go from our midst, we shall miss you. Alma Mater wishes for you the best. May God use and prosper you in those undertakings for which you are best fitted and may He give you satis- faction and peace in all things. Leon Edgar Smith, PresiiJpni.
