ty-foul' D lE D ll CC A 'll' ll 0 N OIF NIEW POST EXCHANGE Moved by the admiration that Major Thomas so easily commanded in us, we wish to voice our appreciation to the Board of Regents and to Colonel Pearson for giving us this appropriate monument to the memory of so dis- tinguished a man. We know that in giving us this new building, these gentlemen have realized a true symbol of Major Thomas' life .... his constant efforts to divert life from the tedium it is so apt to fall into. We have a recreation centerg a place of comfort where we can lounge and 'take it easy'g a soda fountain at which We can cool off beneath the dust of mounted drillg halls for dancing, rooms devoted to games during idle hours . . . . a fulfillment of the hopes of cadets for years past. What could be a better memorial to a man who was so de- voted to bringing his cadets amenities of life? .... the class of 1934 participates in this tribute, in the name of the man our school honors here tonight, for us and the generations of our successors.
