NOW PAUSES TO REMEMBER WILLIAM EMIL HIECKEN After eaniiiiu; liis A. 15., A.M., and I ' li.D degrees at Indiana Uiii er.sity and teacliin; then ' and at otlicr in.stitution.s, Dv. Hiecken tanic to Milisai)s in 1934 as head of the Department of Bioh)gy. Jle hecaine Dean in 1939 and continued in Ijoth position.s until ill lu-altii forced hi.s retirement in 19.53. His pliysica! conihtion Ix ' came progressixcK ' worse, and lie died |anuar 20, 195.S. The 1947 Bohashela said of Dr. Hiecken: Dean of Men, Teaciier of Hiolog) ' , member of Flii Beta Kappa — these are just a few of the things w liicli make Dr. Hiecken a very ersatile person. An outstanding scholar, he is unsui ' passed in tlie fair execution of his duties. Iustincti c ' l ' , Millsaps students rcsi)cct and like Dean Hiecken. As this statement indicates. Dr. Hiecken was one of the most respected members of the college community. He was respected for his intellect, his industr -, but most of all for his integrity. His unswer ing lo alt ' , honest) ' , and sense of fair play were his outstanding characteristics. Students and facidty members might not always agree with his opinions anti policies, ])ut they always knew they could get a frank and cantlid answer from him, and they always respected him. Dr. Hiecken was not responsible for establishing the high ideals and standards characteristic of Mill- saps, but throughout his tenure as Dean he was prob- ably more responsible than any other person for up- holding them. His devotion to the college which he loved and the principles for which he stood won the admiration of all who knew him, and Millsaps today is a better place for his having been here. CURTIS MULLEN, III Millsaps College, on January 20, 1958, was sad- dened to hear of the death of Curtis Nhdlen, or Sonny, as most of his friends knew him. Curtis was one who had li ed but shortK among us, but one who had gained the respect and admiration of all those who knew him. He was a student well ersed in the graces of everyday living — one who thought of others more than himself; one who loved Cod and li ed a high e. emplar ' life. Millsaps has lost an inquiring student; journalism has lost a promising journalist; mankind has lost a fine friend and excellent companion. We all feel deeply the loss of this one who was so much a part of Millsaps College.

...TOMORROW ' S FUTURE THROUGH WORK TODAY The Second Half of The 20th Century Belongs To THE SOUTH The South is fortunate in having the advan- tages that it has. There is no lack of inteUigent minds ready to assume its places of leadership. These minds are being developed in the South, and they wish to remain in the South. As more and more of its educated men and women elect to stay within its bounds, the South can not help but to continue to grow and assert itself. MISSISSIPPI Mississippi, too, is in good position to con- tinue its growth and prosperity. Enjoying good resources, good educational institutions, and interested people, it is destined to rise economically as well as culturally. If we can continue to interest our young men and women, we need not worry about training our youth to see them assume roles of wealth and distinction in other parts of the country. Mississippi can depend on its schools to provide it with well trained citizens, and Mississippi will continue to grow. MILLSAPS Millsaps froin its founding in 1891 has con- tinued to grow. Set up as a small, liberal arts college, it tries to train its students for well- rounded lives rather than for narrow profes- sional careers. It is an atmosphere of intellec- tual growth, of congenial friendship, and of religious maturity. It draws from its wealth of knowledge and experience to prepare its stu- dents for higher and nobler things. With a Southland so soliciting, with a past instructing, and with the future inviting, how can we not go forward?
