Text from Pages 1 - 108 of the 1953 volume:

A Partial Record of the Year 1952-53 12090 Sponsored by Snow Branch Student Body The Noyes Building has, for almost a half century, been the center of the college Cosmos. It is a symbol of the durable ideals that activate Snow. Mysteries of life and the universe have motivated centuries of searching. In the laboratories and lecture rooms, students are introduced to the knowledge accumulated in this endless quest. n victories and defeats must be accepted in the that comprise the gayer aspects of college lift many friendly games and activities A college is more than a plot of ground, equipped buildings, and people. It is a Cosmos in which there is living — intense, diverse, and purposeful. Here Youth accepts the wisdom of the ages and visualizes realistically new worlds to conquer. It laughs and plays, tastes victories and defeats, gives freely of its skills in diverse ways, and prepares to grapple with the challenges of a complex world. The staff of this SNOWONIAN hopes that some of the multiple facets of the Snow College Cosmos during 1952-53 have been herein recorded as reminders of the year. Miss Phillips has, for more than a quarter of a century, dedicated her keen and versatile mind, her untiring energy, and her genius for fellowship to the youth of Snow College. The Spirit of the Master is manifest in her services. She is ever the Good Samaratin ; always she is willing and eager to go the second mile . Seldom are her efforts limited by contract, clock, or calendar. She leads; she demands and inspires others to lead. Hers is an uncanny way of finding what each of her students most needs or can best do. Hers is the art of giving herself, frequently and ardently, to the task of helping make more successful, useful, or outstanding, the work of her students and fellow workers. She has helped to inspire, shape and record Snow's achievements, character and traditions. She has been and is our teacher, challenger, counselor, friend. Fern Y.

Nuttall The Year Book of 1952-53 is now written and in it is recorded for the future, the history of campus life for this year. Its pages can never be turned back, nor can events recorded be relived. Through the years to come this book will speak to us from its pages and bring back to us memories of the friends we have made here, and of the pleasant experiences we have had during the school year. With the closing of this year, ends another chapter in the lives of each of us. What the year has meant to us and what this Year Book brings back to us depends now on what we have done with our time and opportunities during the year. To most of us it has been a year of growth and achievement and happiness. To all of us it has been a period of self-discovery and orientation. If to us it has opened the vision of our possibilities, and given us a desire to develop them, increased our friendships, given us a desire to do something worthwhile, it has been a year well-spent. May success and happiness always be with each of you, I sincerely wish. H. R, Christensen Clayton Stout Delphia P. Jorgenson Vance L. Allred Winnie H.

I sit by the door of the college hall; Watching the students - both short and tall -Arriving for classes that they themselves choose And my attention is drawn by their shoes. None are alike except for the fact, The wearers have come for knowledge they lack. Work is ahead for those shoes passing there; But if they are treated with kindness and care, They’ll carry their masters through college days And watch them get wiser in worldly ways. When the time comes, and college is through, There’s a bigger job waiting for these shoes to do: They must carry their masters through calmness and strife After they go through the door down the pathway of life. Maxie Peterson A great while ago the world begun. With hey, ho, But that's all one, our play is done. n
