and physical. Scientists, though long cramped by inadequate surroundings, are now surging forward with the aid of mod- ern faeilities. Scholars of an historical bent have volumes at their fingertips, and find it within their power to supplement the existing store of knowledge. In leisure time, made sweet by the giving of our salt, we witnessed the fact that scholarship is not, nor can it ever be, in isolation. These were perhaps the times of greatest learn- ing, for it was here that mature minds emerged in eongenial argument with their peers. These many faeets are at once in- tegrated and permeated by a spiritual atmosphere which knows no sanctum of a library, no locks on a science laboratory, no privacy of a scholar’s mind. Herein lies the meaning and motivation of our work. A great part of the man is formed by his environment. We have become, in a very real sense, the eampus on whieh we have labored. Let us take a last look at our- selves.

TO A HUMANITARIAN AND SCHOLAR Ten years from now, tlie departing seniors of the Class of 1962 will look back at their college days and wistfidly dream of a return to those earlier, perhaps more exciting times. Undoubtedly they will recall this or that class, those ever-mounting cuts in Ethics or Psych, the erection of two modern buildings, or a ' isit to Dean Galvin’s executive suite. They will reminisce about Loyola Day which they won two years in a row or the evening Miss “Amazon” starred in Loyola Nite. Here and there some professor will stand out as the most impressive in those long years of suf- fering. To a few, the name of Harry W. Kirwin will bring back many memories. It is rather unfortunate that not every student at Evergreen is afforded the privilege of being in one of Dr. Kirwin’s History classes at some time or another during his tenure 12 at Loyola. For the “Doc,” as his students affec- tionately call him, is one of the finest men at the College. One could write reams about Dr. Kirwin and use such epithets as “brilliant,” or “colorful,” or “amazing.” Truth to tell. Doctor is all these and much more to his boys, and more than anything else, he is a helper, ever ready to lend an ear to their problems. In his tiny office in the basement of the Science Building is a battle-scarred cot on which he promptly invites his guests be seated. Pulling up his swivel-chair like a professional psychiatrist, the Doctor is ready to begin his ther- apy. Whatever the problem is. Dr. Kirwin’s speedy answer inevitably ends up with a word or two about future goals in life. This is the most important, he says, that one realize his aim in life, why he is here, where he is going. Too philosophical? Perhaps. But sound? Yes. In May of this year. Dr. Kirwin’s most recent book. The Inevitable Success, appeared fresh from the press. The title is significant, for it might well be the title of some future biography (or auto- biography-dare we hope?) of the Doctor himself. In addition to being a highly successfrd writer. Dr. Kirwin is also a man whose greatest joy, I think, is measured by the hundreds of successful students whom he has taught. And whether they advance in the fields of law, of business, or of education, they will always be “his boys.” To the members of the Class of 1962, the per- son of Harry W. Kirwin will stand out for these and other reasons. To those who bothered to seek him out, he was always there. To those who sought his sound advice, he gave both direction and en- couragement. It is with a sense of our own limita- tions that we stand as one and proudly ask him to accept our dedication. VICE-PRESIDENT LYNDON B. JOHNSON, WHO WROTE THE INTRODUCTION TO THE INEVITABLE SUCCESS, CONGRATULATES DR. KIRWIN UPON ITS PUBLICATION.
