KAHLER MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP Alternate Nancy Harms Clgij, winner Mary Behnke Crzlghtj with Mr. Roy Watson who presented this award. Once again in July, following two days of events centering around their graduation, sixty-one M-K seniors bid farewell to classmates and faculty friends. This forty-seventh annual commencement was the final event this year in which M-K cele- brated its fiftieth birthday. The activities began on Friday, July 26, when the class and their adviser, Mrs. Margaret Strode, met for breakfast at Perkins Pancake I-Iouse. Miss Eleanor Smith and Miss Esther Roesti were the speakers. On July 27, a 10:30 a.m. baccalaureate service was held at Christ United Methodist Church. The Reverend Richard Reynolds, Director of Develop- ment, Rochester Methodist Hospital, gave the sermon Yourself, Your Task, Your Life. He began by saying, Don't let the world squeeze you into its present day mold of concern for things, not people, or its something for nothing philosophy. The general order of life today should be Love people, Use things, not love things, use people. In nursing, as in many careers, the value of life is it's concern for others. We are servants of people, therefore our task becomes a calling and when one value of your life is your concern for others you are doing God,s work of lovef' Baccalaureate Service - My ,, f. My, ,f , If Chaplain A. L. Toews and Reverend Richard Rey- nolds, baccalaureate speaker. The top 10 ranking students in the Class of 1968 At 4:00 p.m. at John Marshall Auditorium the graduation ceremony opened with the traditional procession. The Reverend Alquinn L. Toews gave the invocation and the senior members of the chorus directed by Mr. Harold Cooke sang two numbers. Doctor Edward M. Litin, Head of the Section of Psychiatry, Mayo Clinic, gave the address The Nurses' Search for Identityn. Speaking as a psy- chiatrist, he pointed out that abrupt change in identity takes place at graduation - You're no longer daughters, but ladies who have parents, you're no longer under the protective umbrella of the school - you're on your own. This produces trepidation and apprehension along with your sighs of relief to be graduating. Now you will search for your own identity and ind that low self-esteem is one disease you cannot afford, until you see your value you will not be able to transmit the feeling of helpfulness to patients . Presiding at graduation was Mr. Harold C. Mickey, Executive Director of the Methodist Hos- pital. Miss Eleanor Smith, Director, presented the candidates to Mr. Howard E. West, Vice-president of the Board of Directors, who awarded the diplo- mas. The presentation of the H. Kahler Memorial Scholarship was made by Mr. Roy Watson, Presi- dent and General Manager, Kahler Corporation. Dr. Oliver H. Beahrs, Member of the Board of Trustees, Mayo Foundation, presented the Edith Graham Mayo and the Mayo Foundation Grad- uate Nurse Awards. The C,87,000l H. Kahler Memorial Scholarship recipient was Mary Behnke, Fairmont, Minnesota, Nancy Harms, Early, Iowa was the alternate. The Edith Graham Mayo award winner by the vote of her class was Lora Willemssen Brandt, Lake Park, Iowa. The Mayo Foundation Graduate Nurse Award was presented to Norma Chaska, instructor In-service Education at RMH for the past three years. Norma is now attending Boston University, where she is working for a Masters degree in nursing service administration and sociology. The M-K Alumni Association presented each of the graduates with a paid membership for 1969 and presented a paid-up life membership to Nancy Harms who achieved the highest academic rank in the class. Each graduate received a long-stemmed red rose as a tribute from the Board of Directors. This class brings the total number of M-K grad- uates to 3,711. Thirty-four members of this class have joined the staff of our hospital. Nine in this class Kahler graduates. SEN IORS Nancy Harms Daughter CMVS.

The weather was gorgeous, the setting gracious and the atmo- sphere overwhelmingly elegant. Foundation Tea Day couldn't have been nicer. Upon entering the house we were presented with long-stemmed yellow roses and invited to wander through the house and grounds. We were impressed with the elegance of the past and how well it blended into today. Refreshments were served in Balfour Hall and there we had an opportunity to visit with students and faculty from both schools. We shall remember with gratitude the pleasant afternoon we spent in this historic house. Linda Bernhard, '68 J-S Banquet On May 24, the junior class honored the seniors with a dinner at the Depot House. The Gay Nineties type of decorations in the dining room, with its small tables, chandeliers and dim lights, produced a nostalgic mood in many of us and we found ourselves swapping stories about experiences during the past three years at school. This event also made us realize that graduation was very close and we talked of future plans. Kathy Blim, junior, was mistress of ceremonies, and Julie Eldredge, senior president, expressed thanks from the graduating class. Mr. Glenn Van Laningham, executive director of the Family Con- sultation Center, was the guest speaker. His message was a timely one - The Family of an Employed Motherw. He presented useful guidelines to help us balance our careers and family lives. The J-S banquet provided atmosphere, refresh- ment, reflection and reward and we thank the juniors for making this an occasion we shall cherish. Sue Stuber, 368 5 Q .

The service followed the pattern used for the past twelve years. The freshmen CCZass Qf 79705, attired for the first time in the complete uniform of the school, proceeded into the auditor- ium before the audience of parents, upper classmen, faculty, and friends. Participating in the program were Miss Eleanor Smith, director, Reverend A. L. Toews, chaplain, Miss Ann Strandemo, Student Association presi- dent who portrayed Florence Nightingale, and Mr. Dale Mundahl, organist. For this last Candlelighting at Methodist-Kahler Miss Smith wanted to keep the event as traditional for this class as for all others so they too could exper- ience and have pleasant recollections of this service, its purpose, and its meaning. A chapter in the history of the school could be written on these ceremonies, as all M-K grads have in their memory vivid recall of the Capping , Recognition'7, or Candlelighting Service in which they were participants. THE MEANING OF CANDLELIGHTING fo one of the participants in the Class of 1970. The Candlelighting Service will always remain as an unforgettable moment to me, a freshman. I had finally attained one goal towards which I had been striving during the twelve weeks of the first quarter: I was ready to wear the white uniform of the school and the beloved white cap which is one way of identifying Methodist-Kahler School. With my head held high, I proudly marched down the aisle in the presence of my friends and relatives who for the first time were viewing me in my role as a student nurse. Not until I started to recite the Nurses Pledge did I begin to really understand the meaning of this event. This was only the beginning! The next two and a half years there will be much for me to learn and I will have many experiences and en- counter situations which will give me a clearer understanding of the words I repeated on this night. They will serve as a beacon to the future. As Ann Strandemo, senior, attired in the uniform of Florence Nightingale led our class out of the sanctuary, this signified for me her leading us into the nursing profession. The candles we carried lighted the path before us. We must never let these candles be extinguished from our hearts. Their comforting light can illuminate our way to a clearer understanding of what nursing is all about. Jean Potter, '70 CANDLELIGHTING - To a Junior A year ago, I climbed the stairs to light my candle from that of Florence Nightingale. This year I sat in the audience as an upperclassman, really seeing for the first time the beauty of the candle- lighting ceremony and for the Hrst time grasping the meaning of the Nurse's Pledge. In the time since my candlelighting ceremony, I have devel- oped a philosophy of nursing, a deep conviction of the meaning to be found in our profession through commitment. During the same time, it had been easy to become preoccupied with the day-to-day aspects of nursing-the care plans due that day and the concern of completing the physical care and the giving of medications on time. With such preoccupations, it had become at times convenient to forget the individual around whom centered so much activity-the patient. I had seen too many nurses ignore opportunities to commit themselves by becoming involved with the fascinat- ing people who needed them-their patients. It is relatively simple to give physical care and to pass out medications. It takes a dedicated professional nurse, committed to the aims of her profession, to interact with her patients on a person-to-person basis while she performs her assigned duties. This takes additional time spent in listening and caring, but the rewards are great. Emphasizing my impression was one word in the pledge-zealously. Whatever happened to enjoying nursing, to finding joy in caring for others, and to communicating genuine enthusiasm for the ideals of our profession? This quality above all attests to the degree of our commitment, and probably no other is so rapidly communicated or uncommun- icated to the patient. This initial transmission of our attitude determines the quality and effective- ness of the rest of the nurse-patient interaction. The essence, then, of candlelighting for me was renewing my belief in the goals and dedication underlying our relatively simple acts. It is more than a job one can forget at three o'clock, or a place to live between high school and marriage. It is a profession with its roots in genuine concern rj one human being for another, as Miss Smith stated. Candlelighting is a needed reminder of the ideals on which our profession rests. This ceremony is also reassurance of the inesti- mable value and rewards to be found in a life centered around commitment to and involvement with others. Nursing for me has become a part of my state of mind and state of being, a way of looking at and living life.

During the past year the Student Store continued to flourish and all are agreed that our location in the basement of Clara Madsen Hall promoted more student business. A new item added to our stock this year was 10 ounce white pottery mugs deco- rated with a navy blue border and the school emblem glazed in gold on one side. This has been a good seller. Seven girls volunteered to assume responsibility for the store for the coming year. Mary Behnke, 68' s. K , N .... -. X N v xxxx go . X X X Q N Shirley X Q R QXNM . ,X 3 X? . s NX SNS .

Gifts Last fall the Class of 1961 gave a memorial gift of 29 Methodist Hymnals for use in the Third Floor Chapel at Rochester Methodist Hospital. This gift was in memory of their classmate Mary Odegaard who passed away in January 1962. The hymnals have red covers and each one has an appropriate bookplate recording this tribute. This hand carved wood Hgure of the compas- sionate Christ was a memorial gift to the hospital from Mrs. Dora V. Tonne, in memory of her husband Edwin E. Tonne who passed away at R.M.H. Mrs. Tonne is the mother of Mrs. Willard Johnson CMarib1n Tonne, '56D who was an assistant- instructor in nursing from 1957-1960. . This gift is located in the front of the Meditation Chapel on first floor of the hospital.

Not only does Sam keep our school and part of our dormitory meticulously clean, but with his powerful hands he moves all heavy articles around the school with rugged skill, yet handles all our china and breakables with protective care. Both faculty and student requests for special assistance have been unfailingly met. Sam has always been a busy, hard-working man. Before coming to Rochester, he and his wife farmed for many years near Pine Island. In 1955 he joined the RMI-I staff as a houseman and in 1960 was assigned to the school. 'CI like my work - I try to keep the school so clean that no student will ever have to apologize for it.', Stunts that cause property damage, how- ever, make his temperature rise. Sam is close to students and understands them, we all are familiar with his cheerful smile and warm HI-Ii . Perhaps it's not unrealistic to conclude that Sam7s homemade brand of discipline and advice often delivered without the knowledge of the faculty has contributed to character building in a few students. During his spare time Sam enjoys Hshing and does carpentry work and gardening around his home. When our school closes in 1970, he plans to retire and move into a new home located on the Mississippi River at Wfabasha. The senior class wishes Sam the best, for all the happiness he has radiated with his smile and gen- uine concern. 'fThank you, Samf' Mary Behnke, 368 In November 1967 Dina O. Bremness, '27 retired from her position of administrator at the Glenwood Community Hospital. She had held that position for 35 years. In 1946-47 she served as president of the Minnesota Hospital Association. She now lives in Florida. Ill-H Graduate Gu-Huthnr Mrs. Harold Dison Ulforma Greenler, '52j is the co-author with Minette Nast Uatebf member zyf the faculgf, Hosjbitalfor Special Surgegz, New Torkj of the 4th edition of Simplified Drugs and Solutions Man- ual for Nurses. Mrs. Dison did the revision of this edition as Minette Nast was unable to do so because of illness. The new manual includes a simplified, thorough review of elementary arithmetic, the interrelation- ships of the metric and apothecary systems, exercises which apply these basics to clinical dosage calcula- tions, and new illustrations which demonstrate the relationships of various types of measurement equipment. A new presentation of the common household utensils which can be used for measure- ments has been added. The paper covered manual is 5M X 8M in size, contains 86 pages, 7 illustrations and costs 82.50 per copy. It was published in March 1968 by C. V. Mosby Company. The first three editions of this manual have been used primarily in Solutions and Dosage courses in Schools of Practical Nursing, however, it has also been adopted as a basic study guide in all types of nursing programs. Mrs. Dison held faculty positions at Methodist- Kahler as an assistant instructor in science, instruc- tor in Chemistry and medical-surgical nursing from 1952 - 1961. She holds a B.A. Degree from Val- paraiso University. Last year Mrs. Disonis first book, entitled An Atlas of Nursing Techniques , was published by C. V. Mosby Company. Retired Army Major Ethel Sylvester, 334 died on january 18, 1968 in the Veterans Hospital at Fargo, North Dakota. She was 55 years old and had been ill for several years. She served in the Nurse Corps for 16 years and had a 3 year tour of dity in several hospitals in Germany during World War II. She retired from military service on May 1, 1959 and returned to her home town Wadena, Minnesota where she had resided until her illness. Mrs. Henry Rader CNorma Bornfield, ,240 passed away on November 5, 1967. Mrs. L. C. Stuber CFern Heelland, '-Ml, passed away on january 31, 1968. Mrs. D. W. McConnell CLeona Dale, '32l, died on july 14, 1968. She had been ill for more than a year. miss Pladson Hetires Miss Nina Pladson, a faculty member known by hundreds of students, retired in August of 1968 after 26 years of service to the Methodist-Kahler School of Nursing. Miss Pladson graduated from the Kahler Hos- pitals School of Nursing in 1927. She attended State Teachers College in Mayville, North Dakota, and in 1947 she received a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Minnesota. In 1951 she earned a Master of Arts degree from Columbia University. Her broad experience in nursing and in nursing education have made Miss Pladson a valuable member of the faculty. Her first position was head nurse at the Worrall Hospital Qtwo yearsl. Succeed- ing positions included that of supervisor Qfveyearsl and assistant superintendent Ctwo yearsj at Robert Long Hospital, University of Indiana, Indianapolis, Indiana, instructor in nursing arts at Bismark Hos- pital, Bismark, North Dakota Cone yearj, assistant dean of women, State Teachers College, Mayville, North Dakota fthree uyearsj, instructor in nursing arts at Brokaw Hospital, Normal, Illinois Coneyearl, and instructor in charge of nursing courses during the freshman year at Methodist-Kahler School of Nursing C26 yearsj. Miss Pladson has always exemplified a role model of a nurse that students found inspirational. Her modern philosophy of nursing was consistently re- flected in all of her teaching. Her skill in demon- strating nursing care transformed the classroom setting into a realistic situation-revealing, perhaps, a hidden talent for acting. She also looks like an ideal nurse - impeccably groomed, attractive, calm and poised. In addition to her teaching responsibilities, Miss Pladson provided understanding guidance to stu- dents in other roles. For 18 years, while she served as residence director at Colonial House, Delano, Palmer and Damon Halls, she listened to students' Problems, met their boy friends, shared the excite- ment of plans for careers and weddings. As adviser to the Classes of 1945, 1948, 1956, 1959 and 1962, she spent 15 years helping students to achieve group identification through social and organiza- tional activities. Miss Pladson's retirement marks the end of an era in the history of the school. The fall of 1968 is the first year in which no freshmen students were admitted g therefore, the nursing fundamentals de- partment was discontinued. During the years that Miss Pladson was in charge of this department, she helped it to grow. The staff was increased from two to five, which made it possible to provide guidance by instructors for students when they were in the clinical area. The physical facilities of the depart- ment were also improved. From its overcrowded and unattractive location in the basement of Kahler Hall, the department was first moved to the fourth floor of the Worrall Hospital annex and in 1966 to the fifth floor of the Colonial Building. Miss Pladson's skill in planning, and her good taste in decor, produced classroom facilities that were func- tionally efficient and attractive. On July 8, a party in her honor was held at Clara Madsen Hall and students, faculty and hos- pital staff came to wish her well. Miss Pladson now resides in her home town of Hatton, North Dakota, with a sister and brother. IH-H Graduate Promoted A news release sent from the Activities Ofiice of Walter Reed Army Medical Center reported that on January 18, 1968 Army Nurse, Major Marian C. I. Kennedy CMarz'an Itse, '47j, was pro- moted to Lieutenant Colonel in a ceremony at Walter Reed Hospital where she is a Supervisor of a surgical unit. Lieutenant Colonel Kennedy entered the mil- itary service in 1943 and served as a staff nurse in Iran and Italy until 1946 when she left the service. She was then employed as a head nurse at the Tacoma General Hospital, Tacoma, Washington until 1951 when she re-entered the Army Nurse Corps. Her assignments since then were at Fort Lewis, Washington, two tours of duty in Japan, one in Okinawa, and at Fort Benning Georgia, Fort Leav- enworth Kansas, Fort Belvoir Virginia and in Korea just prior to her assignment at Walter Reed in October 1966. Nurse Kennedy and her husband Lieutenant Colonel Robert W. Kennedy live in Silver Springs, Maryland. From Ruth Haarsma, '65, Jos, North Nigeria, W. Africa, January 1968: My work continues to be interesting-so many illnesses which I only read about and never saw while a student are becoming a real experience. In February I will be leaving the mission station for a few months of intensive language study. So far I have had to communicate through an inter- pretor which has many disadvantages.. In May I will begin teaching a course in anatomy to a class of mid-wives and thanks to all that I learned while at M-K I think I'll be able to man- age. 7 i Hlumni Celebrate Seheels 50th Hnniversaru june 27-29 were gala emotion-packed days for those alumni who returned to M-K for Alumni Days 1968 to enjoy the usual events - but this year had an additional event that has not been usual. A two-day seminar sponsored by the Rochester Methodist Hospital on The Nursing Specialist preceded the reunion activities this year. Both the seminar and the reunion events were highlights of this year in which we commemorated the fiftieth anniversary of our school. Those who attended the seminars heard speakers Miss jean Yokes, nursing specialist, cardiovascular nursing, Kansas City Medical Center, Miss Flor- ence Blake, director, Masters program in pediatric nursing, University of Wisconsin, and Dr. David Trites, director of research, Rochester Methodist Hospital. The seminars offered a thorough descrip- tion of the functions of a nursing specialist, the academic and other requirements of this position, and stimulated a free exchange of ideas about this new type of health worker. Extensive participation by the audience enhanced the enthusiasm which marked all the sessions. Alumni returned from both coasts and many other parts of the United States C20 statesj as well as from such distant points as Geneva, Switzerland, and Alaska, approximately 500 joined in the fes- t1v1t1es. Major reunions were held by four classes with numerals ending in eight, but many alumni from other classes also attended. Registration figures showed the following totals for the reunion classes: 1928 - 22,1938 - 20,1948 - 51,1958 - 48. On Saturday morning alumni began pouring into Clara Madsen Hall where they were greeted by a huge banner reading Welcome Alumni . The coffee was a mixer where alumni'had a chance to communicate with classmates and faculty from gen- erations both before and since their own. From 12:00 - 2:00 p.m. reunion classes held special luncheons and had their class pictures taken. In the afternoon many took advantage of the tours through the Rochester Methodist Hospital and Clara Madsen Hall. As evening approached the scene shifted to the Kahler Hotel where over 450 alumni and visiting wives and husbands attended the banquet. Mrs. Edward Brackenbury, '42 was mistress of cere- monies for the after dinner program. The Reverend Raymond B. Spurlock gave the invocation. Dr. Gerald M. Needham brought greetings from the board of directors of the school and hospital. Miss Eleanor Smith, alumnus and director of our school, complimented the alumni on the excellent reputa- tion they have established as nurse practitioners which has reflected favorably on the school and also has served as a stimulus for keeping a quality program at M-K. In reviewing some historical facts she pointed out that during the past fifty years one hundred and fifteen M-K graduates have served their school as faculty members. She then paid tribute to two well-known faculty members who left the school in August. A standing ovation and applause saluted Miss Nina Pladson, '27, nurs- ing arts instructor, and Miss Myrl I. Peterson, '37, science instructor. At one point in the program, students wearing the M-K uniforms of the past passed in review while Miss Grace Lahre '29 amused everyone with her own original thumbnail sketch of M-K's history. Following the style show, the students lighted the candles on the large four-foot high birthday cake which the Rochester Methodist Hospital had pre- sented to the alumni in honor of the occasion. The highlight of the program came when Miss Lois Arneson '45, alumni president, unveiled and presented to Miss Smith for the school a cast iron replica of the M-K cap mounted on a wooden base, a gift from the alumni association. This object d' art is a permanent symbol of the school's con- tribution-that of serving humanity for fifty-two years. The model cap will be placed in the hospital so alumni past and future will always have a tan- gible reminder of their school's existence and its contributions to nursing and society. It also tells of the real feeling of loyalty alumni have for their alma mater. Closing our 50th birthday party Miss Marian Hall '33, standing in the glow of the candles on the cake, led the old grads in singing the original Alma Mater. The banquet was followed by a dance and parties which continued long past midnight. Comments and messages received since Alumni Days have been most complimentary. Alumni offi- cers and committees can take a well deserved pat on the back. Having a luncheon for those not in the reunion classes was a wonderful idea. All the meals were excellent and we too had an opportunity to visit. The weekend was an experience in sharing. Greetings, cordiality, coffee, memories, congratula- tions, gifts, honors, all added to the enthusiasm and excitement of the events. I enjoyed having the opportunity to see and hear members of the faculty we so appreciate. Another excellent part of the program was the style show and student chorus. It's good to see the pres- ent students - and they did their parts well. I wish to express thanks and appreciation to the alumni people in Rochester for all that was done for the Class of '48 and for me personally. It was an unforgettable experience. I have been back for all my class reunions and have long felt that our association has an excellent approach to a happy alumni weekend. As it is set up we oldsters coming back see our own generation yet we also feel close to other classes. We enjoy the signs of growth and progress but do not feel alienated. The alumni who came from Alaska, Switzer- land, California and other places at considerable expense all said, f'It was worth every cent, I wouldn't have missed it for anything. The large attendance at the dinner should indi- cate to all of you the interest in this alumni event. Surely we just celebrated one of the most successful Alumni Days. Ht The Hlumni Banquet The following messages of congratulations were read by Miss Smith: . It has come to my attention that the Methodist- Kahler School of Nursing will observe the 50th Anniversary of its founding at an alumni reunion. This is a Golden Anniversary that certainly deserved my sincere appreciation and hearty con- gratulations, on behalf of the citizens of Minnesota. The Methodist-Kahler School of Nursing has effectively complemented Rochester's great inter- nationally famous healing arts center. I want to commend all who have contributed to the half century of humanitarian service and success of this noble institution. Harold LeVander Governor State of Minnesota Congratulations to the members of the staff, the students and the alumni of the Methodist-Kahler school of Nursing as you celebrate the fiftieth anni- versary of its founding. Please extend my best wishes to all in attendance. Albert H. Quie Member of Congress Reaching the Golden Anniversary fifty-year mark in the profession of teaching the skills of nursing to thousands of students of the Methodist-Kahler School of Nursing is certainly a significant and historical accomplishment. ' I wish to add my congratulations and appreci- ation for the wonderful service to mankind that Methodist-Kahler School has given over the past fifty years. Such efforts deserve the greatest admir- ation and expressions of sincere thanks from all in our community of Rochester, and in addition there- to from our entire State, and people throughout the world who have had the blessing of being cared for by the most excellent graduates of Methodist- Kahler. Harold Krieger State Senator, 4th Legislative District Rochester, Minnesota I have just returned from the Seminar sponsored by the Methodist Hospital. I enjoyed the two days very much and have some appreciation of the planning and work that made it so effective. Congratulations on the fiftieth anniversary of the Methodist-Kahler School of Nursing. Best wishes for a happy alumni reunion. Sister M. julie W Director St. Marys School of Nursing Congratulations on this happy occasion. Sorry I can't be with you. Your many and varied suc- Cesses, loyalty to your school and happy comrade- Shlps are of my early dreams for you, come true. Thank you for letting me be one of you through these many years. Good wishes to all. Irene English Countryman Fourth director of the school more Hhuui the 50th Hnniversaru In honor of this celebration, the Alumni Associ- ation provided the financial support for the publi- cation of an historical booklet which was distrib- uted to the entire M-K family and many friends of the school. Miss Eleanor Smith '36, director of the school, spent several months researching and writing the publication. She collected data from hundreds of letters, papers, minutes, documents, and by inter- viewing persons who had intimate knowledge of the school. The research turned up considerable buried treasure in the way of source material. She found pictures of early classes which had been stored away by M-K graduates which showed the first cap worn by those first 5 students. Miss Smith presented in her own literary style an informal, readible chronicle of the school's main- stream of events over the past fifty years. It is no small task to prepare a publication whose contents were fifty years in the making. The booklet 50 years serving humanigf through edu- cation is thirty-two pages and is illustrated with symbols, photographs of people, places and events memorable in the school's history. The Board of Directors of the alumni association voted to have a commemorative bronze medallion cast as a memento of the school's 50th anniversary. Miss Lois Arneson '45, past president, and Miss Joan Bruce '60, .vice-president, designed the face of the medallion and jostens manufactured it. It is 3 x ZMU and incorporates the school pin. It is pleasing to the sight as well as the touch. They are available through the Alumni Association for 35.00. . . 593 454 mt-. rgl?a?: is liirk itiiitilira nfiilii f . gig ' ' I W' 1 Q59 6 f .- Q pfbgfii 'fi x il f ia- . 1-x:3 N 3:5 qiivluvu I From Major William P.
