the head and the flash of the eyes when a man says. l'm from Purdue. But the Boilermaker Spirit is more than the lift of the head and the fire in the eyes, it is something that is in every activity, in every cheering section, and in every class. And we have tried to put it in every page of the Debris, to run as an undercurrent in this record of a college. as it runs through every bit of life at Purdue. ln this way we believe that we have achieved an honest transcript of the University. A yearbook such as this is could not be a success were it prepared by only a few, and we wish to acknowledge the many sources of aid in the preparation of the l93 I Debris. We are indebted to the Indianapolis Engraving Company in the per- sons of Mr. Joseph Todd and Mr. Noble Ropkey who planned the book with the editor and who were a great help in making the work progress smoothly. To the famous Indiana artist, Mr. Frederick Polley. we owe a great many thanks for the eight beautiful drawings of the campus. One of these is an original etching of Eliza Fowler l-lall. This particular picture will prob- ably be cut out of the Debris by many and framed. The White Studios of New York have done an excellent piece of work in making the photographs of the seniors and the organizations. Mr. J. C. Allen of West Lafayette presented us with many very good athletic and military pictures. The Foster Shop of West Lafayette photographed the beauties. The cover was designed by the S. K. Smith Company of Chicago. The final phase in preparing the l93l Debris was the printing. The gold ink and the color printing were handled by the Colortype Corpora- tion of Indianapolis.
