SPIRIT AWARD-1969 According to a well known reference work, spirit is “the thinking, motivating, feeling part of a man . . . vivacity, courage, vigor, enthusiasm . . . The definition is perhaps academic, hut in selecting this year’s recipient of the Purgold Spirit Award, the editors believe they have cited an individual worthy of the definition. W ' hether on a basketball court or in a discussion with his fellow Lorasmen, Tommy Jackson has displayed the courage, ' igor, and enthusiasm” that is in the true spirit of the Loras College community. His athletic achiex ements are extraordinary. This x ' ear Tommy became the first junior in Loras history to enter the highly .select 1,000 point club. But off the court. Tommy has also been instrumental in enfranchising us from the racial barrier that perhaps existed not so cry long ago. Both of these achievements have contributed to the continued growth and dexelopment of the Loras community, and it is in recoguitiou of these contributions that the 1969 Purgold proudly presonits Tommy Jackson with its Spirit .Award.

1969 SERVICE AWARD — Continuing the tradition of recognizing signifi¬ cant contributions to the Loras College community, the 1969 “Purgold” presents the Service Award to those associations whose aim it is to aid, to develop, and to guide less fortunate children. The clubs cited are: Buddy Club, Do-It-Yourself, and Big Brothers. Although collegians exist in a fast paced, chang¬ ing world, filled with numerous pressures, these stu¬ dents take time each week, and share it with a smaller companion who is retarded, living in less fortunate surroundings, or is orphaned. In so doing, they exemplify the true mark of a human being that shows love and compassion for his fellow man. ' c therefore feel it is a necessity to honor these Loras- men who are active in this endeav or, and hence we salute them with the 1969 Purgold Service Award. “That best portion of a good man’s life . . . Ilis little, nameless, unremembered, acts of kindness and of love.” Wordsworth 6
