The Gold and Green As the roots grip the rock And the branches soar 'Til the stars are netted In the gold and green S0 the river like a hammer Splits the hills And molds the 'valleys in beticeeng And time like the river Whirling leaf and stick Builds the college - brick by brick. Like the tree it grows With every part Rooted in the mind, Nourished by the heart. Lois Ferry Pendleton i? .aff wife X ? 3lvx-I.: WWW 'K N 1 K 'E if ll ll if X flee UCATIII

Administrative Council ,I X ff, ff, f 'mt A X ' N J E. L. Krause VV. Bay I9 t'ine Mc0'9'ill R. Patterson The year 1948 brought several changes to MC and one of these was the installation of an Administrative Council instead of a College President .... The Trustees chose Eng- lish Prof. and violinist Dr. Merrill Patterson, Chemistry Prof. E. L. Krause, and Dean W. Bay Irvine to head the college .... Eyebrows were raised at this new policy, and many people sat back and waited for the whole college system to collapse. Who ever heard of a college without a president? . . . The record of the past year is the proof of these men's ability. Improvements have been made on the campus and more are coming. The remark has been made by many members of this staff who have Worked intimately vvith the council that this has been a great year. The council has proved themselves capable of any task and everyone has enjoyed working with them. . . . To the Ad- ministrative Council We say 'ibest Wishes for 1949 and our heartiest congraulations for a fine job well done.
