For nature made her what she is And never made another! Robert Burns Twinlcling eyes and smiling lips announced the presence of our petite French Mademoiselle at North Central College. Although she has roamed o'er many landsi' and made many new friends, she has not forgotten one lair scene or lcindly smile. She has an abundance of rich, warm, feelings that allow her to include every- one with whom she comes into contact. ln appreciation of this radiating personality and friendliness, the Senior Class dedicates the 1952 SPECTRUM to Mademoiselle Annette Sicre. Fo ewo cl The real value of anything lies beyond the face of it. Outside appearance,all too ottenthe determining Factor, is not the true criterion of worth. So with North Central College, a person has to go beyond the buildings, to the students, faculty, organiza- tions, athletics, and activities to fathom its personality. ln the 1952 SPECTRUM we have made an analogy between North Central and a precision time-piece, com- posed of many parts. We are inviting the reader to see what makes North Central tick , to step behind the Face for a close-up of the works. A clock is an amazing piece of machinery. Countless cogs, gears, wheels and springs combine in harmonious rhythm to tick out the time for man. It has so many parts that to the casual observer most go without notice or meaning. Yet, if one of the parts were to be removed, the clock would stop and would not start until balance was restored. We believe it is the same way with North Central, that every part big or little, conspicuous or unnoticed, plays its part in making North Central tick. We hope that this SPECTRUM will serve as a reminder of happy experiences we have had in college, that as we go forth we will make North Central's honor known, and oft look back to watch her course.

Seniors should live. . . Said a jolly old pedagogue long ago. And lived they have, rollicking through parties and activities, enjoying themselves immensely. OF course, the seniors have also worked hard during the year, putting the finishing touches on themselves and their education for a degree from North Central College. The Senior Class came to realize that work and study must be balanced by leisure time activities and hence tried to round out their college life with a perfect year. Early fall saw the seniors assuming positions of responsibility and accustoming themselves to the honor of being the sages of NCC fno offence, profsj. Along with the falling leaves, the senior 16 girls' corduroy weskits and the men's plaid vests dotted the campus. As old man winter threw his cloak over the area, most of everyone's time was spent on studies, exams, and that long wait until the grades came out. With spring, the thoughts of every hole and hearty senior turned to Skip Day. tWhat did you expect?j Granted -the thoughts of some did turn to the junior- Senior Banquet and to that certain special some- one. Planning and producing the class play was hard work, but an enjoyable task which kept many busy for weeks. As warm weather again returned, the Senior Class began to prepare for commencement and a different way of life. Seniors need not feel that they have left North Central, for North Central goes with them wherever fortune dictates.

STANDING: Mayer, vice-pres., Lenz, president. Turning baclc the leaves of memory, or to be more practical her secretary's boolc, Martha Beed Found inscribed therein many virtues of the class of 1953. Cn the first few pages, many events of the junior class were recorded. They wasted little time, starting the pendulum swinging with both Feet Flying at the Junior Class Square Dance. The chuck wagon crew was on hand Creally on loot, to rustle up the blaclccows and Flapjacks. Turning to their more sophisticated means of entertainment, who can Forget the all male Burlesque Show, composed ninety percent of pre- theological students? The show was highlighted by the appearance of Red River Dave, and, straight from the Latin Quarter, Luvacious Lily. For the more athletic members of the class, President lim Lenz approved an evening of 30 sports For the sole purpose of demonstrating strength- We are Few, but we are strong. All those who attended this year's Junior-Senior Banquet came away with a satisfied Feeling. The food was good, and the spealcer was excellent. Carol Mamsen, treasurer, who had been on the loolcout for new business enterprises for Financing this big event, quiclcly agreed to up- hold the instigator of the hat and coat checlcing services only for the convenience of the baslcetball patrons. The class closed the boolc, and the year, with the inimitable words of Vice- President Slceet Mayer: May the waving flag be lowered: Our heads in silence bowed, When this class of '53 Draws anchor and puts to sea.

With like enthusiasm and superior strength, the victorious sophs Cyeall waved the frosh across the roaring DuPage River in a record seventeen seconds, to remain forever undefeated in their special niche of the annual tug-of-war Hall of Fame. A few weeks later they added to their prestige among the upper-classmen by ripping through the frosh again, 5-1, in Homecoming weekend's push ball contest. Many alumni and students will remember the float of venerable Old Main, displayed in the class's green and white colors, in the Home- coming parade. Likewise they will remember the soph Stars who performed in As You Liked lt and in the exciting athletic exploitations. A rollicking all school carnival Carousel, was sponsored by sophs in the late fall of 1951. Nichols Hall was transformed into a gay fiesta of hat, horn, and balloon prizes for winners of the contests. Queen Lois Henning and King Carl Silvernail reigned over the festivities. ln their greatest undertaking of the year, The Soph Minstrel Show, this class provided the entire student body with an evening of Cto quote the soph'sD Hunequalled entertainment. Guiding the Class of 1954 through a year crammed with successful activities were class officers: President Tom Stachnik, Vice-President Toh-Leong Tan, Secretary Nancy Blotch, Treasurer Carolyn Rein, Women's Representative Phyllis Parker, and lV1en's Representative Don Utzman. 35 Sopflomores ROW 1 Bonnie Allds ROW 2 Bruce Berg ROW 3 james Bowen ROW 4 Lorraine Erickson ROW 5 Melvin Gabel 36 Q 9' Charles Barr Elwood Berkompas Dorothea Brandt Marie Erickson Carol Goehring 7' M Lowell Bartel Bruce Black V Elroy Dell Gay Fisher Ronald Gould -ef -11' Lorraine Barth Nancy Blotch Ruth Dietzel Wayne Frank Edward Gunderson Richard Batman Marie Borsack Anthony Drapelick Edgar Fredrick Richard Hadraba ROW 1 Robert Hahn ROW 2 Lois Heidenreich ROW 3 Dorothe johnson ROW 4 Donna Kremer ROW 5 Marilyn Mack James Harper Lois Henning Lee Kochenderfer Marilyn Kubly Mildred Maechtle Gloria Harrison William Henry Geraldine Koelling Charles Lee Walter Marek Dean Harshbarger Elizabeth Hoel Charles Kolb Merton Lueptow Shige Masaki Nr Sopfzomores er ,+V f .Y .W A Rv New EPZ , VY VV ROW 1 Fay Meyer joan Meyer ROW 2 Donald Neuman Constance Novotny ROW 3 Robert Petersen Carolyn Rein ROW 4 Lois Roesti Carol Roth ROW 5 Audrey Schreiber Mary Lee Schreiber 38 LeRoy Mie-Ike Audrey Ogan Greta Ritzel LaVonne Sather Wilbur Silvernail Marilyn Mielke Phyllis Parker Kenneth Ritzert Kathleen Schmidt Georiean Sokup Rurh Newell Mildred Perkins Jack Redesaier Patricia Schneller Thomas srachnair ROW 1 Frances Steinaclcer Henry Strand Toh-Leong Tan Evelyn Thomas William Thurber ROW 2 Donald Utzman Barbara Van Adestine Harwin Voss Donna Wadewitz Donna Walkes ROW 3 Verlin Wandrey Ronald Wisthuff Helen Youngman oya'05 UI 0 .931 CA NO Freshman dass L. to R.: Eigenbrodt, president, Nielsen, men's rep., Ebinger, women's rep., Arneson, secretary, Fliclcinger, treasurer, Norenberg, vice-pres. Button Froshlu As a group of green Freshmen entered the portals of North Central College, this phrase was shouted from the hale and hearty lungs of the upper-classmen. Shortly after the semester began, lrosh orientation was introduced to the bewildered, but brave lrosh. Little red beanies perched on their heads offered a new color and life to the campus. As time went on, Homecoming weekend loomed in the horizon. These lrosh believed that the biggest Home- coming bonfire North Central ever had was built by them. The next day, as the Football team made their First touchdown, a loud raucous cheer went up from the lrosh as it was the last day of orientation and beanies. Alter a few months, class elections were held. Ed Eigenbrodt was elected president, Richard Norenberg, vice-president, Chris Arneson, secre- tary, Miriam Fliclcinger, treasurer, Neil Nielson, 40 men's representative, and Sylvia Ebinger, wo- men's representative. Following these elec- tions, the Frosh were formally accepted by the school at a formal reception. They were no longer considered just Hnobodiesf' but were now part of that great lcingdom North Central College. Alter this, the class ol 55', began worlcing as one unit. The first event was the lrosh party to which all the eager frosh came out For an en- joyable square dance and fun. One organization, whose sole membership is made up of freshmen is the Frosh Pep Club. Headed by Janet Wolberg and Evelyn Best, this group rooted lor the football and basketball teams, whether victory or deleat. Also, many ol the irosh participated in other extra-curricular activities and helped to make this school one of which they could be proud. Thus, the class ol '55 went forward, success as their goal.

North Central is fortunate to have a Student Council which discusses and settles many of the important affairs on and off campus. The council regulates all student affairs and carries student opinion to the administration. Functioning in many activities, the council put onavery successful Homecoming, controlled Friday Chapels, ran a used boolc service, engi- neered College Day, and worl4ed on the problems of class cuts and of student evaluation of their professors. The bi-weelcly meetings found the Student Council room occupied by the representatives-at-large, representatives from the different classes and Christian organizations, and from the publication, athletic, and forensic boards, and the faculty. All subjects of the Kingdom of North Central inte- rested in council proceedings attended these meetings. The executive committee composed of Ruth Johnson, sec- retary-treasurer, Marilyn l'loover, vice-president, and john Adams, president, co-ordinatecl the activities. At mid- semester Marilyn accepted the duties of President which were left vacant by the graduation of lohn.

The Social Commission is the organization which helps to provide this iun through its well-planned activities, some of which were: hay rides, squrae 1 dances, teas, receptions, and slcating parties.

To be admitted into this honorary forensic Fraternity, persons must have gained a sufficient number of points by participating in debate, extemporaneous speaking, or oration at intercollegiate tournaments. Before the students exhibited their skill at tournaments, they had to learn about both sides of the subject concerned. Not only does being a member of Pi Kappa Delta give training in the art of speaking and arguing effectively, but it also teaches par- ticipants to judge factual material and to enter into competition. The chapter of this fraternity at North Central was advised by Professor Oliver. Alpha PM Omega SEATED CL. to RJ: Hill, Schneider, Kliphardt. STANDING: Snider. Pi Kappa Delta Hoover.

The paper itself is inanimate, but the work and skiII of its composers gives it Iife and personality.

Ruth's Iot feII to writing Iast minute stories, proofreading, and, colloqui- aIIy speaking, everything from soup to nuts. In QII respects she did an admirable job as associate editor. AI set forth to finance the CHRONICLE by selling S2400 worth of ad- 58 vertising. The enormousness of a job like that can only be appreciated fuIIy by a person who has tramped the streets seIIing advertising for a school pubiication. Not content with mereIy financing the CHRONICLE, AI Iaunched his Iiterary career with a weekly coIumn Borrowed by Bronsf' fAs the SPECTRUM went to press, AI had successfuIIy avoided any IibeI suits.Q Under the CHRONICLE training program, Mary KoIze, Jim Kerr, MariIyn Bender, and Larry Ross took over and directed the pubIica- tion of the November 16 issue.

The '52 model is the accumulation of years of yearbook-making experience, and hence,we believe the best of its kind on the market today. Seriously speaking,the staff has worked very hard on the '59 SPECTRUM in an effort to make it the best ol its kind. Mel Gabel, art editor, created the two-color division pages and helped develop the theme. His work required time and skill, and he gave generously of both. Scotty Elliott, associate editor, played her part in design work on the dummy.

The work of a yearbook divides itself into two halves, literary and Finance. The business depart- ment ol the SPECTRUM makes publication possible. Without it, no annual could be pub- lished.

Baseball 1951 Weakness at bat and in the Field caused the plight ol the 1951 Cardinal baseball team to be anything but a happy one as the nine played a dismal Q-11 season. Only two days out ol the 13 game season saw everything go right, and on these two the Cards took lull advantage of their abilities to win two. One of these was a 6-4 victory over Elmhurst, while the other was a 17-6 victory over Lake Forest. The second victory was a juicy one, since it knocked the rival Lakers out of a chance lor the league crown in baseball, and gave what little satislaction there was in the losing season. In the course of their losing streak, the Cards lost to Concordia twice, Wheaton twice, III. Wesleyan, Carthage, III. College, Lake Forest, Elmhurst, III. Tech and Augustana. Injuries to Bill Bazant and jim Hrdina and the loss oi Don Riel and Dan Dobrowski created a serious handicap. However, bright spots in the gloom were: the pitching of Duane Ivlehn, Ray Keller, and Doug Heddon,and the Fielding 76 and hitting ol Bill Bazant, Bill Gossell, Rog Ulrich, and Tom Stachnik.

Coach Belding, in cu period of rebuilding, saw the Cards drop to their lowest conference spot in years. Although the Cards won two dual meets, they were Forced to a third in a triangular meet with lV1illilcin and lll. Wesleyan. The conference title was won again by Whea- ton, and the other Little Nine schools were forced to battle for the runner-up Spots. Baseball man Duane Mehn shifted into his track suit for the conference meet and toolf a place in the broad jump and the high jump,to give the Cards their scoring places. The improving thinclads worlced up to a sixth place Finish in the Carroll Relays,to give rise to speculation For a better finish next year. Loren Patriclc, who picked up many points in the javelin and discus through the year, suffered the worst loss in the conference meet when his best throw of the day struclc an opponent in the leg and caused him to lose the distance. The 78 meet was then interrupted by a rainstorm, and Pat was unable to get solid enough footing to get the proper distance lor a winning effort. Outstanding men on the squad beside Patrick and Mehn were Dale Kreslfe, Stan Slcirmont, Don Neuman, Bill Chapelt, Warren Cooper, Walt lelinek, Bob Sebastian, Bob Morauski, and John Adams.

The NCC cheering squad has instilled an enthusiasm and spirit into the North Central students that has been laclcing for years. The success of the '51-52 cheerleaders has been the by-product of untiring efforts and regular Thursday afternoon practices in which they perfected their yells and added new numbers to their repertoire. NCCS iron lungers amalgamated scattered shouts into coalescent yells Cin other words, they organized a Freshman Pep Clubfl. They have also done a remarlcable job in getting organized participation from the entire home side. The squad pulled through the football season in good shape fThe only casualty was Bill Chapelfs now famous trip over a French Horn, and continued as Red and White livewires, sparlcing cheering at the basketball games. The all-set sextet consisted of: Donna Siemsen, Bill Chapelg Joyce Mertz, Slcip Filbey, and Marilyn Brownellf led by their captain, Rainie Davis.

With a 3-5 season and a 2-3 con- Iierence marlc, the Cards dropped down into a lowly sixth place in the Lil Nine. Long runs, long passes, and rough play lea- tured all the games that the Olsonmen played against their conference and outside Ioes. Although baclcfield men lilce Dan Dolnrowslfi, Ray Kellerfand Dean Harshharger rated most of the headlines, the linemen lilfe Diclc Gauch, Bolo Heinrich, Reinhold Heinrich, Dewey Mehn, Diclc Johns, and Ron Thoreson did their worlc well and toola most of the bruises. Dan Dobrowslfi and Duane Mehn, who acted as co-captains for this year's squad,were unani- mous All-Conference selections, while Ron Thoreson was given an Honorable Mention in the balloting. BELOIT 61 NORTH CENTRAL Q0 Beloit's Buccaneers proved to be too much For 83 the untried Cardinal defensive team in the sea- son's opener, as they romped for a 61-20 de- cision. The Bucs asserted their superiority in the line in the first few minutes of play, and their split T continued to confuse the Card defenders as the evening progressed. The Cards scored all three of their TD's in the third period, all coming with lightening like speed. Don Neuman picked up the first on a 100 yard kickoff return, while Dan Dobrowski and Dale Kreske picked up the others on shorter runs. MONMOUTH 13 NORTH CENTRAL O A stubborn Monmouth defense, and an in- ability to get the offense going helped the Olsonmen to absorb their first shut-out in 14 games in their home opener. Paced by the speedy Steve Brooks, Monmouth dominated play for most of the game, as the North Central offense sputtered and stammered. The play of the line again improved, but costly fumbles and intercepted passes hurt North Central in strategic moments. NORTH CENTRAL 7 ELMHURST 6 A grey rainy day and a slim crowd saw Coach Olson's boys win their first victory of the season on a missed point after touchdown against EImhurst's Blue Jays. Bill Ciossell scored on a pass from Ray Keller early in the first half, and the Cards hung on the rest of the way to eke out their victory. Elmhurst put up a furious pass attack in the second half which finally gave them a touchdown, but the slippery ball skittered off the side of the kicker's foot and gave the Redbirds their one point bulge. LAKE FOREST 35 NORTH CENTRAL 7 A rock ribbed defense that held down a highly touted Lake Forest team to a 0-0 tie at the intermission went for naught as the Foresters exploded for three touchdowns in the first five minutes of the second half and went on to win by an appreciable margin. With the injured Duane Mehn unable to play, the Card offense did not begin to function until the final period when it produced the consolation TD, as Dale Kreske went over from the six yard line. ILLINOIS COLLEGE 14, N. CENTRAL 7 Illinois College of ,lacksonville spoiled North Central's Homecoming celebration as they rocked the Cards with a 14-7 defeat before the largest crowd of the year. The Blue Boys held a 7-0 half-time edge as North Central was unable to gear its attack properly. Full of fire after the intermission, North Central punched straight down the field for a tie with Dan Dobrowski big man in the attack. Big Dan finally plunged over for the TD, and Walt Larson kicked the extra point. On the following kickoff Steve Banks of Illinois College returned the pigskin for a winning touchdown, going the whole 100 yards with the Olsonmen in vain pursuit. WHEATON 26 NORTH CENTRAL 7 Wheaton settled fora 7-7 half-time tie in their annual classic with North Central, and then proceeded to wear the Cards down with superior line play and take a 26-7 victory from the Qlsonmen. After George Dryden had given the Crusaders their lead, the Olsonmen sprung their slickest for- mations with Dean Harshbarger flipping to Duane Mehn for the tying TD. The Cards drove down to the ten before the half and set the stage fora field goal attempt, but time ran out. Weight in the line decided the second half, as the out-manned North Centralites were forced to allow three Crusader touchdowns and allow Wheaton to keep the Brass Bell for another year. NORTH CENTRAL 26 MILLIKIN 12 A hard driving snow that obliterated the land- scape and the field set the stage for North Central's upset victory over James Millikin of Decatur. Dan Dobrowski started things off as he crashed through the center of the line for 46 yards and the opening touchdown. Bill Gossell kept things rolling as he sprinted 68 yards to give the Cardinals a 14-O bulge on the strength of Walt l.arson's perfect placements. The Big Blue struck back for two touchdowns to come up to a 14-12 deficit, but North Central was enjoying the snow, and scored twice more to prove it. Duane Mehn took Deon l'larshbarger's shot put pass and carried it past the defenders for 70 yards and a touchdown. Don Neuman followed perfect interference fora 12 yard final tally. NORTH CENTRAL 25 CARTI-IAGE 19 North Central finished off its season with a win against Carthage, in a game marred by official indifference to the rules and flagrant violations of the rules by the players. Bill Gossell got the headlines in this game, after he ran a Carthage pass back 40 yards after the half had ended to put North Central more securely in the lead. The Cards had gotten away to an early 7-O lead on Dan Dobrowski's TD, but Carthage whittled it to 7-6 before' Ciossell performed his heroics. Dobrowski scored again in the third quarter, and Don Neuman finished off the tallies for the season. The Qlsonmen had to withstand a hard finish by the indians to pull it out, but they were equal to the effort and finished a losing season on a happy note. Cross Country Coach Les Belding's harriers lost their three contests this fall to Navy Pier, Elmhurst, Carroll, and the elements. ln rain, snow and the cold the distance men galloped the two miles between halves of lfootball games. Only Lyle Littlewood and Bill Chapek were in the First Finishers often enough to earn letters. The Card runners dropped the bout with Navy Pier at Homecoming, 39-21. Against Elmhurst, the rabbit chasers came closest to victory with a 29-28 score. Cn November 3, they faced Carroll and snow, losing 34-22. Corretore, Henry. man. Basketball B Saaaa' The B squad Bombers, commonly lcnown as the hamburger squad, played a schedule of 12 games, garnering a 3-9 win-loss record.

Team spirit and Finesse picked up as the Bombers trounced Aurora College 77-62 and Fournier Institute 73-65, in the last two games.

The Redmen defeated every College Conference of Illinois foe at least once, with the exception of Wheaton. Dean Harshbarger, Bob Hahn, Bernie Riley, Duane Sahs, and Bill Finlc filled out the first ten, but were used sparingly as the starting five proved to be the powerhouse in scoring and defense. For a season opener, the quintette traversed the roads to Iowa to down Iowa Teachers 58-47 and Grinell 69-61. Will Warden walltecl off with top scoring honors in both frays, copping Q0 against the Tutors and setting a new individual North Central record of 33 against the Pioneers of Grinnell. The Olsonmen opened their home contests by throwing a scare into DePaul of Chicago before bowing out, 74-63. Warden with 18 and Arboe with 16 were top point getters in a losing cause. The worst defeat of the season came in the form of a 83-57 trounce by Beloit. Willie Warden had only 14 points for high honors. The first conference foe of the Cards was Illinois Wesleyan, who fell to the powerful on- slaught of Olson and Co. by 73-61. Warden raclced 26 points, Bradish 15, and Ulrich 13. Opening the cage contests after a Christmas layoff, the Cards dropped one to Fort Sheridan on a very cool three point second quarter, 50-49. Against the U. of Chicago, the Cards walked away victors, 57-50. Warden was high man with 17 points. Against a very hot Lalte Forest team, Willie pumped in 25 points, but the cards still came out second best, 86-75. For a follow-up, the NCC five went to Wheaton, only to be 87 downed 75-71 in a close hard fought game Warden took honors with Q5 points. ln perhaps the biggest thriller of the year, the Olsonmen dropped lllinois Tech from the un- defeated list with a 61-59 victory. Don Arboe's lelt-handed hook in the Final seconds put the game on ice for North Central as Warden got Q4 and Arboe 2? in winning. The cross town mates of Tech, the U. of Chicago, bowed to the tune of 73-57 as Warden picked up 30 points. As a revenge match with Fort Sheridan, the Cardinals dumped the soldiers 65-55 as Bill Bradish connected on 22 points for high honors. At Elmhurst, the Redbirds were tops by a 66-55 score with Warden getting 25. The 68-58 upset of conference winner, Millikin was a high spot in the NCC basketball season. Bradish, Arboe, Ulrich, and Stachnik played well in helping Warden score 26 points to swamp the Big Blue. On the road, the Cards came from behind in two contests against Augustana and Carthage, winning 68-65 For Augies first loss and 64-59 over an inspired Carthage team. Warden with 23 and Arboe with 20 were high against the Vikings, while Warden with 26 and Arboe with 19 had top honors against Carthage. Stretching their victory skein to eight straight, the Cards edged Elmhurst 75-67, Warden col- lecting 29 and Bradish 16. Again Wheaton came out victors by a 74-67 score as Warden garnered 25 and Arboe 23 in losing. The biggest morale victory of the season came in a 69-54 triumph over l.ake Forest. Arboe's 24 and Warden's Q0 helped in winning. Records fell as North Central bombed lllinois College 99-88 For the conference Finale. Warden with 30 and Bradish with Q3 had hot nights. Against lllinois Tech in the season closer, no one was hot as they lost 61-51. ROW 1 CL. to RQ: Fink, Ulrich, Harshbarger.

Prospects looked dim in December, but the un- expected strength ol lrosh lim Kalas, Bill Ran- dall, and Bob McBride more than compensated any misgivings. The addition of Doug Scott at mid-season added strength to the team. Other consistent place winners were Captain George l'lanosh, Ken Lewis, and Dave Shumaker, while Eddie Kung and Andy Noxon added team depth. ln the conference meet held at Augustana, the l'lenningmen took seven out of ten events to swamp lllinois Wesleyan and Augustana and annex their third consecutive conference crown.

Playday also played a major role in the girls' activities. Many of the girls had an invigorating time at playdays at Wheaton, Aurora,and their own swim playday at Merner Field House. Not only do these girls progress along the line of sports, but they also learn to co-operate and create a fellowship while earning money for this associa- tion. Running the concession stand at the baslcetball and football games was a tremendous taslc which the girls undertoolc in conjunction with Varsity Club. Furthermore, through the worlc of many capable hands WAA was able to talce second prize on its float during Homecoming. All in all, WAA has fully carried through its purpose: to promote an effort for physical efficiency, to stimulate interest in athletics and athletic accomplishment, to create a spirit of good sportmanship,and to co-operate with other campus organizations in promoting and maintaining the highest standards of college life.

WILLIAM ROSS WENZEL Every day, every hour, every moment, someone in this world experiences a tragedy. Somewhere goodness and virtue are forever lost to the world. A life is silently blotted out, a life that perhaps would have gone on to great heights of achievement. Now we Feel this most lceenly through the sudden loss of one we loved and admired. We who lcnew him are certain that his gilt oi determination would someday have contributed much to the world in which he lived. Yet, the loss of Ross is not a complete tragedy, part ol him still lives on among us. l'lis empty chair in the class room speaks of hard won achievement, his own familiar humor still abides in us all, and his empty seat in chapel tells of one whose life was in order with the One above. All oi these things we have in remembrance. Then let us not be sad, for Ross has gone to receive his diploma from the greatest president of them all.
