As the future unrolls, a great many things about Elon, l)oth good and bad, will be forgotten by former students. This book, it is fervently hoped, will play a large part in preventing that from happen- ing. But even without this, the important things will be retained, l)oth in the minds and hearts of all the thousands of students who learned a way of life here that will serve them well for the rest of their lives. A development process has been begun here that will continue within us all. a growth of knowledge and understanding upon which fuller and happier lives is solidly l)ased. The many litlle things that add up to a picture of four years of college life are encompassed by this book, and with the hope that it will serve you well in keeping whole your memories of Elon and things learned at Elon, we dedi- cate to you this — the Phi Psi Cli of 1952.

T. O Dr. I. W. Johnson We dedicate the 1952 Phi Psi Cli Rev. Isaac Walter Johnson, a native of Virginia and an honor graduate of Elon College; for the completion of graduate work was awarded the Master of Arts degree. Dr. Johnson was honored by his Alma Mater with the Doc- tor of Divinity degree. He has been active in the Alumni As- sociation, chosen as the annual speaker on two different oc- casions; is an ordained minister of the gospel in the Christian Church, now Congregational Christian. He is one of the out- standing rural pastors in Virginia and North Carolina. He is a strong gospel preacher, always placing the emphasis upon Bibli- cal teaching and the spiritual life of his church. During his active pastorate of 51 years, three struggling rural churches grew to be strong churches — strong in membership, equip- ment, and influence. He has served his denomination as an influential official in the Eastern Virginia Conference and in the Southern Convention. He was a member of the Board of Trustees of Elon College and of the Chris- tian Orphanage for more than 10 years. Dr. Johnson has made significant contributions to his church as a whole and to Elon College in particular. Dr. I. W. Johnson Recognizing his worth to his church and college, it is a pleasure and a privilege for the student body of 1952 to further honor him by dedicating our annual, the Phi Psi Cli of 1952, to him.
