A Glimpse Into The Past i LY pAMSIE LAND gathers its own once a year in the month of October. From East, West, North, and South come former students and alumni. Some bring with them many rich memories of former days at Panhandle Agricultural Institute, for it was that the school was named when it was opened on November 1, 1909; others bring their pleasure and esteem for the present Panhandle A. and M. College, the name borne by the college since the addition of the two year college course in 1921. Both P.A.I. alums and P.A.M.C. alums exemplify a oneness in their common hope for the future of this rapidly ex- panding and improving four year institution. Many of them have seen the school emerge from its original home on the second floor of old First State Bank Building to a campus which blossoms as an oasis on the prairie where its 60 buildings sprawl in the protective shade of beautiful trees.

It may be seen in action every day in the lives of those who once journeyed along campus walks, but who now serve their communi- ties with wisdom and dedication. Some of the crowd at the 1958 Homecoming (above) might well be in the first class of 55 students (at right) who are pictured in front of Franklin Hall. As our contribution to6 the observance of the 50th anniversary of Panhandle Agricultural and Mechanical College, the 1959 Plainsman Staff has attempted to present a brief written and pictorial view of the growth of an institution, the advancement of a people. Within these pages, it is our hope that the reader may catch a glimpse of the spirit of P.A.I. and grasp the meaning in the beauty of the development of a school—the essence of the present PA.M.C;
