|in JjBlemoxnam JAMES VANCE BOWEN Dean, School of Business and Industry No one individual was more instrumental in the development of Mississippi State College than was Dean James V. Bowen. In all his work, first thought was given to the advancement of the institution, and to the thorough train- ing of its students. Firm in manner, Dean Bowen tempered his views with a humorous and philosophic attitude, that can only come after many years ' experience. Farsighted in his views, and always showing exceptional qualities of loyalty and efficiency, Dean Bowen was loved and admired by both faculty and student body. SAMUEL BARBER HATHORN Dean, School of Education Attaining outstanding success with the annual Summer Session of Mississippi State was the major accomplishment of Dean Sam Hathorn, as he was affectionately known to students. As Director of Instruction, he was re- sponsible for the maintenance of strict standards in the classroom, result- ing in the high academic standing of the school. By tempering forcefulness with humor and understanding, his training was sound in all details. Missis- sippi State has lost one of its most loved officials, who gave his health in the pursuit of duty, and who commanded our respect by his extraordinary common sense and knowledge, and strict attention to duty. CHARLES H. GIST A loyal friend and an outstanding student was lost in the untimely passing of Charles Gist. Always popular on the campus, Charles was prominent in student activities and was a member of many honorary groups and of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity. Beloved by all his acquaintances, and honored as a gentleman, Charles will live on in the hearts of all State College students. GEORGE EDSON WALLACE Professor of Industrial Education The wisdom that comes with years of experience in dealing with young people was the greatest possession of this highly-regarded and respected teacher, who held the esteem of his students by his liberal and yet firm dealing with them. Having an unusual respect for the personal opinion of every acquaintance, Prof. George gave individual attention to every student and problem that confronted him. This liberal attitude, coupled with a fine understanding of human nature and an eternally humorous out- look on all matters earned for Mr. Wallace the trust and confidence of every associate.
