President Fred T. Mitchell 3L PRESIDENT of MISSISSIPPI STATE COLLEGE This is the first year that Dr. Fred T. Mitchell has served in his present capacity as President of Mississippi State College. A Mississippi State Alumnus, President Mitchell has had at heart the progress of his Alma Mater. He has, furthermore, won the respect and admiration of the students for his seemingly unlimited enthusiasm for student activities. In his very first official speech to the student body and faculty, Dr. Mitchell stated his plans for the postwar progress of the college. Inasmuch as V-J Day came during this long-to-be-remembered year, President Mitchell has put his plans into effect. We here at the College appreciate his efforts and are glad to dedicate this page to the man who in one year has come to rully represent the Mississippi State College spirit of up-and-go-and-succeed . . . President Fred T. Mitchell. 15
