The Tags show, Inside F. S. C. was a blight splash in the entertainment world before all heads went down for the third time in preparation for final exams. Several students obtained their long awaited sheepskins and one hundred forty-four students found their places on the first se- mester honor roll. February found the MENC chapter at Fairmont State busy making the music conference the big success that it was. Ground was broken for the president ' s ranch-style home. The class of 1924 was honored on Homecoming Day with a dinner, game and ri nce. Indignation and pledges of loyalty were aroused when the no- torious Bill No. 405 proposed the conversion of FSC into a four-year medical and dental school. In March, the college choir gave a four-part concert. Throughout the year, interesting art exhibits were on display in the administra- tion building. Assembly programs featured Rear Admiral Ellis M. Zaeharias, Dr. George S. Counts, Cornelia Stabler, Eve Gentry, the West Virginia State College Male Choir, high school bands, movies and special holiday programs. April and spring-time brought the retailing department into the Lime-light with the annual Mer- chant ' s Fair in Colebank Gymna- sium. The campus saw numerous confabs and a Big Five musical. New student body heads were chosen for next year and the lithesome spirit was touched off with a flowery junior prom. Spec- ulation crystallized into a Satur- day Senior Day when hundreds of high school students from all over the state of West Virginia flocked to the campus for a glimpse of college life.

He was awarded the Army air medal, air crew wings, five battle stars, the Presi- dential unit citation, and was sep- arated in September, 1945, with the rank of major. Although he still writes occa- sional fiction, Alexander ' s post- war interest has been in journal- ism. He joined the staff of the Baltimore Sun, left there to ac- cept the post ot senior staff editor of Kiplinger ' s Magazine. Fifteen years ago Alexander married the former Mary Barks- dale of Lynchburg, Virginia. The couple have two teen-age sons and a daughter.
