DEAR MR. BURDICK, We do not see you, unfortunately, as often as we see some of the other ad- ministrators, but whenever we do see you, we realize how fortunate we are in having an administrator such as you. We know you are wise and capable-a man who knows his job to perfection and carries it out every day with the same faithfulness and sincerity. For these outstanding qualities and many others, too, we thank you, lXIr. Burdick. Class of 1941 DEAR MR. SIMPSON, As we take time now to look back on our four years here, we realize, with regret, that there have been times when we have, perhaps, taken you a little for granted. This, perhaps, is because you fit into your position in school so well and because you are what you are-a 3 man capable of meeting any crisis, al- ways ready to give wise advice, and an example of American leadership at its best. One of the ways we can show our appreciation is by writing this letter, and we wish to thank you very much. Class of 1941 SIX
