• A vernal transformation which Spring alone can bring upon the Hilltop becomes a perennial treat. Through the long winter when only snow swirls through the quadrangle on the edge of University yard, it is comforting to know that but a feu months and the heart of a hare, rock-frozen ground will soften with the gentle persuasion of Spring. Soon to flower forth in shrub and foliage, campus verdure each season is stippled with the maroon and yellow of great crocuses which spread their beds along the lau n. An even fairer touch is visible in the Marquette coeds. SPRING

DEDICATION • F. J. Sensenbrenner was trained largely in the school of life. He began on the very lowest rung of the ladder, and by dint of character, perseverance, industry, alertness and courage, has risen to a dominating commercial position in the state and in the nation. He is, too, one of the main figures in the general industrial development of the state of Wisconsin and of the middle west. He has always stood ready to serve whenever called on by public authority, with a high sense of public service and of trusteeship. This has been true notably in his activity on the local selective service board of Winnebago County during the World War, on the Wisconsin State Board of Education, and on various state and national committees of the National Recovery Administration. He has been charitable to an extent no man can know, because even his left hand knows not what his right hand doeth. For many charities he was honored by the Pope and made a Knight Commander of the Knights of St. Gregory. He has rendered many constructive public and social services, and not the least has been his service to Marquette University in many ways, and particularly on the Board of Governors. • We gladly pay tribute to the continuing consecration of Mr. Sensenbrenner to the highest personal, spiritual and religious ideals of life in his poverty as in his wealth, and in his early obscurity as in his present nation-wide prominence. • Because of the character of the man, his humanity, his charity, his personal example, his constructive public service in the state of Wisconsin, and extending way beyond its borders, we are happy to dedicate the HILLTOP of 1934 to Mr. Frank J. Sensenbrenner.

Mellowed by its years of sen ice Johnston Hall has endeared itself to the many students who have spent the greater part of their school lives there. It has become synonymous with Marquette.
