T yN X f QQGreen and White if .M- Because we agree with the Yellow Shadow when he says that Will Rogers is one of Americas most noted hurnorists, and because we feel that he understands the adventure and romance of everyday life, we believe him to be a worthy ideal for the youth of today. Idealism begins with childhood, and whether the ultimate goal is a policeman on the corner or the President of our United States that ideal holds forth a continual inspiration and stimulates the desire to achieve. As the rugged, unconquered West of yesterday expressed itself in the careers of the dauntless pioneers, so today the spirit of the West, with its modern realism, is typified by the life of Will Rogers. Therefore, as an expression of our appreciation for the things he represents in the West today, we have dedicated the 1930 edition of the Green and White to Will Rogers, THE ANNUAL STAFF. Page Eight
