ANDFREND He is familiar to every student on campus. His genial smile and energetic stride across campus, earns him the title of personable president . Once in awhile there is combined in one person, the dignity and bearing which accompanies good background and a worthy position, coupled with a down-to-earth per- sonality which sees eye to eye with the hybrid of individual students. President Moore is such a man. He wears his office well but doesn't let it wear him. He is at home in a meeting of intellectuals as he is at home in his garden. Wonderful carriage, snow white hair, sincere smile, an uncanny memory for names, and a great mind, meet our friend, Doctor Moore.
