He died in his home, 721 :emher 22, 1959, more t0 Howard ,cept his clrurcil, tended regulaIlY- ,le-hearted devo- lrew to manhood rr UNE r. aware! jzimer ei A TRIBUTE By Dr. Iohn D. M. almost under the shadow of its walls. Here he made ahiding friendships, and established great loyalties that lasted through life. As his father had given willingly thirty-six years of self-sacrificing service, so he too gladly served his College in every way he could for more than half a century. Together, they gave ninety years of service to Muhlenherg. For thirty-five years, during three adminis- trations, he was a faithful memher of the Board of Trustees, serving most of that time in the im- portant executive committee. A zealous, untiring memher of the College Athletic Board, he helped to shape the athletic policies of the institution for thirty years hut with characteristic modesty he would not permit his name to he given to the ath- letic field of the new College. Ever since his stud- ent days he was active in the Alumni Association, giving aid and counsel during periods when the existence of this organization hecame precarious. Like his father, he won new friends for the College and encouraged old friends to continue their loy- alty. This is a record of service worth commemor- ating. Few Alumni have equaled itg few will surpass it. Bl'Ol.Ul'l This memoir would not he complete without acknowledgement of our deht to Dr. Seipls dis- tinguished father. As secretary of the first Faculty, Theodore L. Seip helped to estahlish our College in 18673 as financial agent during the economic depression of the Seventies, he saved the new Col- lege from hanlcruptcy hy securing, personally, sulfi- cient funds to insure its financial security: as third president, he planned a larger institution at the close of the century, and laid the cornerstone of the present Administration Building in 1905, six months hefore his death. From humhle heginnings to the threshold of the greater Muhlenberg he led the way forward, leaving to his son and to other Alumni and friends of the College this message for the fulfillment of his cherished dreams: Muhl- enherg College will never he huilt up hy the repu- tation of any one man, hut worlc, persistent, earn- est, and direct, hy its friends and well-wishers everywhere, whenever the opportunity offers, will he needed to make it all its founders designed it to he, and to utilize its advantages to the fullest extent for the henefit of the church and com- munityf, ' iff vi H5 c , ., ., , . - ...nn .-rl'-'K-1f3. .m 4-- g. -- I Y I , V ,H U, 'W ,,r.:. ..,.i,-W ,, ,eh Q . . gpg-..,,-.v .3-, A-.gif wfr?'mfs .-.fljvk v - , , 1, fr ,y,.-U-. - V , - . , I . 5 uf ,-...nf '- ., .1 7,1,,kc,,.Q5,,g-' ,.,rpK,,g,,vf1f.

Even higger things are expected for next year. Muhlenberg Alumni are hecoming even more inter- ested in the welfare of the school than ever before. Because ot the work of Doctor Tyson, the Alumni Secretary, and the administration, the alumni are consciously aware that they are an important part of the school, even though they are not physically present, and that it is their duty to continue to support it. This they are doing with an ever increasing spirit. The Placement Bureau ot the Alumni Qttice is always on the joh, and is performing an excellent service. The Administration is keenly interested in the future, as can he seen, hy the preparation of pians tor the new Stu- dent Building which has been proposed. Sorety needed in the past few years, this addition to the school will he wet- comed hy att alumni, students, and prospective students. This is just another of the many improvements which the administration will make. we-wi 'THU iz f'fffTfflHMf7fft tfffmffif Twenty-five A 'A Wm
