Harrlerte Hardin Editor In chief Editor's Epitaph Thejob is done, the book has gone to press, but the fun and friendship shall linger forever? As I sit by my typewriter, I find myself lost for words. It is hard for 'a person to express himself about a job that he has done. It is sort of tak- ing a full time job, enjoying it immensely, and then leaving it. I have more than enjoyed my editorship of the 1969 Oval. A year of continuous at- tempts for perfection is now over, and I can recall the hours and days of work as only a memory. Capturing significant emotions and experiences has presented itself to be one of the greatest challenges that I have thus encountered, and the success of this trial lies in the readers' opinion of these 212 pages. In the book we created, we tried to capture the essence of the student's life at Fisk University. If we succeeded each individual student, whether he is a secluded scholar or a person well known to the campus popula- tion, will find himself represented somewhere within these pages. The vitality which the Oval Staff began its tasks gradually dwindled as deadlines approached and grades dropped. Yet we steadily sensed the immense responsibility reflecting the composite ofthe Fisk University Oval My utmost thanks to Walter Evans, the yearbook representative, for his long hours of work. For enduring our mistakes, providing the answers to our many problems, giving advice and stimulating morale. - I would like to thank the entire staff for their earnest co-operation and endurance. I would also like to thank my friends who willingly overlooked my often distressed and brusque moods. Thejob is done,the book has gone to press, but the fun and friendships shall linger forever. , ' If ' ' iJ55afz.w51fCz,f M414 fu ,J Harriette Hardin Editor-in-chief m

Acknowledgements On March 14, 1969, Room 103, several steps down the hall from the Co-op, bustled with activity, but on a different nature than that in the Co-op. The Oval Staff was hurrying to meet its last deadlines. This is only one of the many evenings they had given up throughout the year. It is those evenings, hours after classes, and Satur- days that we now acknowledge. But we first extend our thanks to the department that aided in the production of the book. . Our thanks to: The art department, under the chairmanship of Mr. David Driskell, for enabling us to use photographs from Charles Whiteis art collection. Mr. Earl Hooks for the use of his sculpture photographs. And now our thanks to: Karen Powell for the cover design which is beyond com- pare. Donald Graham for his collage, Art is Soul. Emily Jenkins for her art work on the various pages. The Advertising Staff, whose hours of soliciting provided a large portion ofthe budget. The typing staff for typing the endless amount of text that a yearbook requires. Oma Olive, our business manager, for the 'financial prob- lems that were handled so well. The Literary Staff for the text and captions that describe one year of college life. - The Layout and Photography stali' for the imagination and creativity that comprise 7096 of the annual. Forum stall' for the use of the pictures published in the newspaper. Dr. Nebraska Mays for assistance in planning budget. Dean Hughes, our advisor, for his willingness to break precedents. Dr. Bowie for the use ofhis camera. It's the time and effort of this staff that has made the 1969 Oval possible. We hope they will recall with pride their association with the 1969 Oval. As this book is evidence of their work, so we hope that these acknowledgements are evidences of our sincere appreciation. Thank you. Harriezze Hardin-Editor Robert Ratcl1jfeAAss.
