IN MEMORY OF LEONARD NEWC-ARD Ill In January of 1975, Lenny, as he was known at Palmer, passed away at age 23. He was a member of class 3-75. Lenny was very active at Palmer in student functions, and served as treasurer of the Student Activities Committee. He helped organize the 19 74 Homecoming parade and was one of the four delegates responsible for obtaining the official Chiropractic Proclamation signed by Governor Ray. He had also developed a large practice in the Palmer Clinic. Lenny had a pilot's license and flew several of his fellow students to the South Dakota Basic Science Boards in June of 19 74. Those fortunate enough to have known Lenny, know that he thought first of God, the college, his many friends, and last of all, himself. Lenny was from lVlandan, North Dakota, the eldest son of Dr. and lVlrs. Leonard New- gard ll. Two brothers and sisters reside at home, and a younger brother, Joel, is presently attending Palmer. His contributions to Palmer and the Chiropractic profession will long be remembered. In his last days, when he knew the end was near, he expressed his greatest disappointment --that he would never get the chance to practice his beloved Chiropractic with his father. As a living memorial to Lenny, the doctors in North Dakota have established a scholarship fund in his name so others may benefit, for the future of Chiropractic. ln Lenny's lVlemory, Class of 3-75 W 7'l
