Thu Totum Q52 Volume X. IX Billie Gandy . Iris Kendall . Co-editor Co-editor Jane Ann Steen . Business Manager • • oreiron I 9 Colleges an made from dreams. This. the 1952 Totem. b dedicated lo the dream of the lair Mrs. J. M. Radford. Mrs. Radford had a vision of a Student Life (lenter which would fit the varied needs of an entire stu- dent hodv. and she had the strength of conviction to work for the fulfillment of that ision. She dreamed of a build- in ;. spacious and wcll-npiippcd for the development of even phase of a student's life—social, cultural, physical, and religious. I )reams are fragile things hut, if well nourished, will grow unendingly. Ilerdreains may be compared lo those of tin late J. . I hint, founder of McMurn College. Dr. I hint env isioned a great Methodist center of learning here at MeMurrv, and dedicated his lift to making that idea an actuality . Ilis vision has not materialized fully as of this moment, but the dream is not forgotten. More people are dedicating their lives to the saint cause, and what was once called impossible is now nearing its final phase of completion. So it is with Mrs. Radford’s dream of the Student I Jfe (lenter. She gave of her time, courage, and money to make this wonderful building possible, and with the same devotion from those living after her, this gracious dream will be fulfilled—the Radford Memorial Student Life Center. The Radford Memorial Student Life Center, theme of the 1952 TOTEM reflects the • liaracter of its donor, throughout its entirety: it is warm, gracious, friendly and a monu- ment to the Christian ideals upon which it is built. The building Mrs. Radford began as a memorial to her husband, and finished it as a tribute to the graciousness of the family and their faith in the future of McMurry College. It is with deep pride, therefore, that we dedi- cate the 1952 TOTEM to our friend and benefactress, the late MRS. J. M. RADFORD. Back iow left to ricjht. Will White.

Ii is not what we make about but what wo do. not what we have but what we are; not what we ros.-ess but what possesses us, that counts that is life. This is summed up in the statement of Jesus: For a man’s life con- sisteth not in the abundance o' the 'hings which he posses- sed. Again let me say. Life is in the living of it. Altogether too much the ten- dency has been to measure a man by his bank balance, his weekly or monthly deposit, by the sire of his lock-box or his safe These things can never measure the man. Regardless of the house one lives in. the car one drives, the clothes one wears, or the nature of the food one eats, the man himself is mind and soirit. what he is in the innermost recesses of his personality. Man is what he is. stripped of oil material thinas as he stands alone before God. The whole point in education i-. the development and unfold- ing ol this inner man through study and excenence to en- large the mind that one may see clearly think deeply and comprehend broadly, through human relationships and Divine fellowship to strengthen faith, elevate hope, and develop out- going and unselfish love. Thtr is education. The most damaging heresy of this age is not in the field of theology and religion, but in the field of educa- tion. The most damaging heresy of this age is ihe current and widely accepted idea that the maior purpose of education is to qualify one to hold a job. to start with the largest possible beginning salary and to end up with the greatest possible degree of physical and social security. Whatever importance we attach to these things, and we do not gainsay them, this is not education; rather, it is a by-product. Education is in the realm of knowledge and conscious being the development oi the ability to think straight, to judge accurately, to evaluate precisely, to adiust one's self to reality, and to possess one’s mind of as much of truth as possible. This is education. Education is the enrichment of the mind and the enlargement of the spirit. Life is in the living of it. Seek ye first these things, and the other shall be added unto you. For life is not meat and drink, but righteous and joy and peace in the realm ol mind and spirit. HAROLD G. COOKE. President McMurry College idwinistratiou W. B.

McMurry tuliilled its pre dictions as Jar as the Texas Conference race was con corned during the 1951 season. A pre-season predicting contest taken lrom conference radio managers, sports editors, and publicity directors put the Tribe in fourth place, as did several sports magazines and that’s exactly where they wound up. While compiling only a 3-7 win-loss column. Wilford Moore's Indians lived up to expectations in other depot • merits also. Sabin Hendrickson, powerful fullback, was cited in pre-season releases as an outstanding back in small colleges ol the Southwest. Hendrickson came through to lead the conference in ground gaining and scoring almost the entire season Although he rntssed a game. Austin College, he came out second in rushing with 949 yards and scored a total of 60 points The Littlefield ace rated Honorable Mention on the Associated Press’ Little All-America squad All-Texas Conference selections in December contained a quartet of Redmen. Guard Billy Sisson and back Stephen Brock were on the defensive eleven while center Bob Loving and back Hendrickson were among the ranks of the offensive platoon. If any one factor could account for the Indian s below average showing in 1951. it would probably be ”mex l erience. The Redman roster was adorned with 23 freshmen and transfers and coaches Moore and Mel lowell began the season with only 10 lelterrnen Seeing final service for McMurry were seniors Sam Burns.
