ROREVN ORD This year we are celebrating the golden anniversary of the Royal Purple. In 1909 the Royal Purple was selected as the name of the Kansas State college year- book, which would be an annual publication. The first student publication of permanent importance was the College Symposium, published in 1891. Class books, known by various names, were also published by the classes of 1896, 1898, 1900, 1904, 1905, 1906, and 1907. The class of 1908 issued only a pamphlet. Nineteen fifty-nine will especially be remembered as the year Kansas State became a University in name as well OS in fact, and the first time the Wildcat bas- ketball team was rated the nation ' s number one team in the final major college basketball polls. In the words of the 1909 staff, We trust that the record of college life contained within, is complete. We of 1 959 hope it provides a lasting memory for you. 1909 Royal Purple Board of Editors — TOP ROW R M Wyatt, A. G, Kittell. SECOND ROW: Vera E, Holloway, Elsa T. Sikes, A. Mabel Hazen. BOTTOM ROW: Chairman J. E. Martin, M. R. Alleman.
