His individualism embodies all of the hardy virtues of the American frontiers- man. A sportsman of the first water, Dean Eagle believes firmly in interspers- ing work with a proper amount of rec- reation. His favorite piece of philosophy — Life always pays in kind. Xr. cdj. Jxie y B. S., M. A. Dean of Men Professor of Biology A modern version of Socrates is our Dean Oxley. Interrogative as he is lo- quacious, he makes his class hours inter- esting and informative with his clever witticisms. His fondest pastime is attend- ing the movies. A friendly counsellor, he is easily one of the campus ' most popu- lar personages, and rates ace-high in the hearts of the students. C mitu rradti v 9 s B. A., M. A.

v. O. VUomcick J- ' resident From its very inception, the name of Lambuth College has been synony- mous with that of Richard Elwood Wo- mack. Any success it has attained must undoubiedly be attributed to this man who has so patiently through the years poured every iota of his being into the institution which today we proudly hail as our alma mater. In- deed incomprehensible the sacrifice and toil of this admirable scholar, and even more limitless the degree to which they have been responsible for Lambuth ' s meteoric rise in the aca- demic world. To those who are privi- leged to know him, Dr. Womack repre- sents an ideal, lofty and unattainable; yet practicality and expediency are the intrinsic characteristics of his pol- icy. To attempt to enumerate those qualities which endear him to us would be to aspire to infinity. So let it suffice to say that here is a Christian gentleman whose personality embod- ies a boundless galaxy of the cardinal virtues of mankind.

Cora B. Griffing, M.S., M.A. Business Administration and Psychology- Here is one who presents an unusual Dmbination of worthy attributes. Erudite, :holarly and academically honest, she is addition sociable, practical and versa- le. Her classes are both enjoyable and lformative, and she leaves an indelible repression on her students. Lyle Bauguess, B.S., M.S., Ph.D. Chemistry Another new arrival to the fac- ulty, Dr. Bauguess has carved for himself a niche in our institution. Prima-facie evidence of his mas- tery of the realm of the sciences is seen in the degree he possesses, and his unguenchable thirst for even greater learning is attested by his constant presence in the li- brary and laboratory. J. R. Walker, A.B., A.M. Religion and Greek In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. Dr. Walker not only knows the Scriptures; he believes them, and, moreover, he practices the life they teach. He derives the fullest measure of satisfaction from his career of serv Frederick Q. Friedmann, D.Litt, Ph.D. Philosophy A real gem is Dr. Friedmann. Lambuth is indeed fortunate to possess a faculty member of so wide and varied experience. A native of Germany, Dr. Fried- mann has studied extensively in many countries and is widely lauded as an authority on world politics. dLambuth d Here we pay humble tribute to Lambuth ' s most capable faculty and their lives of unstinting service. It isn ' t a large faculty— but it is nonetheless one which is well prepared to acquaint us with those principles which will en- rich and enable our lives. Not only do they impart the more abundant life to Arthur E. Evans, A.B., A.M. Modern Languages Undoubtedly one of Lambuth ' s most beloved characters is Mr. Evans. Diligent as he is con- scientious, kind and courteous, Pop , as he is affectionately known, is an integral part of the college set-up. In addition to his curricular duties, he serves as editor of the Lambuth News- Letter. Otto Waldner Music A newcomer to the campus is Prof. Waldner or Otto , as he prefers to be addressed. Besides being a most outstanding man in his field, he is a popular favorite with undergraduates, who have made his adjustment to American customs infinitely less tedi- ous and protracted. 10
