The Philadelphia Textile Institute Foun- dation is entering its sixth year as a non- profit Corporation chartered to raise and ad- minister funds necessary to expand the facil- ities of the Philadelphia Textile Institute. In October l949, the Foundation reached the culmination of the first and most impor- tant step in its program, the new million dol- lar Textile Institute Building and the Edgar and Emily Hesslein Library Building were opened formally on the beautiful campus at School House Lane and Henry Avenue. To keep the Philadelphia Textile Institute abreast the progress of the Textile lndustry, the Foundation plans to continue its Develop- ment Program activities, with emphasis on building an Endowment Fund, raising facul- ty salaries, creating a faculty pension plan and last but not least, building new dormi- tory and gymnasium facilities. With a new year under way, one of in- evitable greater progress in the textile in- dustry, we find ourselves under the heading of THE PHILADELPHIA TEXTILE INSTITUTE. No longer are we associated with the MU- SEUM OF ART. This is significant of the fact that we are leaving the old entirely behind. In our advancement, we have had the guid- ing hand of a constructive and modernistic group, the Board of Governors. Ever con- scious of improvement and progress, this group functions in an administrative capac- ity for the school establishing the policies followed at the present and planning those for the future. The future, with a strong and aggressive band of leaders at the helm, looks very bright for our new P.T.I. LEFT TO RIGHT-Colonel M. D. Brown. President: T. B. Hayward. First, Vice-Presi dent: R. C.

DEAN'S MESSAGE Dreams have a tendency to exaggerate situations and surroundings in most cases. Our, dream of many years has come true in even greater proportions than we dared to expect. Our new buildings and surrounding are more beautiful and appro- priate to our use than we had hoped. The class of l95U is to be congratulated on being the first class to leave the new school. The Faculty and all of those connected with the Institute wish you all a successful career in the Textile Industry. Your support as Alumni will bring to future classes, bigger and better facilities as time goes on. We have just started our new plant, more buildings and increased facilities will be needed in the future and it is to our Alumni that we look to keep the Philadelphia Textile Institute in front in Textile Educa-v tion. Good luck and success to you alll RICHARD S. COX lllllt Illllllllllll DIRECTOR'S MESSAGE Returning students must have rubbed their eyes in disbelief of their own vision when they saw what their school had be- come. There is now no finer physical plant for a textile school than the one housing the Philadelphia Textile Institute. Our textile college is outstanding in most respects, and it is the duty of faculty and stu- dents to see that it becomes and remains so in every respect. During my recent trip to England, in France and Switzerland I saw many schools and mills. If in the United States, you and I had the fullest appreciation of the superior- ity of our opportunities, I am sure we should work harder to deserve them. What we take for granted would in many countries be re- garded as miraculous beyond dreams. If we will match the greatness of our opportunities with the greatness of our efforts, then you and I may be assured that this school, and our country, may be soundly secure in its future.
