WBSBM fames X. Zwinfae T HE DIAMOND JUBILEE celebrations at Park College have been a great inspiration to me. Institutions and in¬ dividuals alike are tested by their ability to plan for the future while meeting the demands of the present. The seventy-five year life-span of Park College has covered the most turbulent period in world history. During these years our nation and indeed the whole world has moved from one mode of existence into something almost completely new. We must in part ad¬ just to new conditions and must in part hold fast to fundamental principles. Therefore, the administration of Park College has endeav¬ ored- to fulfill both obligations. While celebrating the Diamond Jubilee we have tried to visualize the Centennial; and our dreams of the future are not dreams alone but are commitments; commit¬ ments not only of money but also of effort and of conviction. The students here are an inseparable part of today’s work and tomorrow’s hopes. In that deeper sense the family of Park has sig¬ nificance. As future alumni you become the hallmarks of the college, by whom it will be judged, by whose quality of citizenship the in¬ stitution will impress the supporters of tomorrow. We wish you every good fortune, and give you our best wishes J. L. ZWINGLE President

Mrs Zwingle, Kathie, Christa, and Erla In THE FOUR YEARS that he has been here Dr. Zwingle has done a great deal to assist Park’s continued progress. He has been instru¬ mental in raising the standards of Park by laying considerable stress on academic work. However, in doing this he has never lacked an active concern for. the religious phase of the campus, the work program, student- faculty relations, or public relations. In his interest for the future of the college he has formulated plans with the Board of Trustees for expansion of the campus with new buildings and other improvements. During the summer of 1947, Dr. and Mrs. J. L. Zwingle and one-and-a- half year old Christa came to Park A few weeks later the new president and his wife announced the birth of twin daughters, Kathy and Erla. Christa, Kathy, and Erla are familiar to all Parkites who have ever passed by the White House and seen them playing in the yard. The “President’s Reception,” held annually in the fall for new students, and Alumni Day in the spring produce intense activity in the Zwingle household The formal dinners cooked by Mrs. Zwingle for the graduating seniors, too, have become part of the tradition associated with the inhabitants of the White House Wherever we see the president and his family, we find them genuinely striving to do their part to make, Park, as it has already become for many of us, our “second home, and to make the Park fellowship something which we can never forget. — 11 —
