TEMPLE SPEAKS... Life magazine, through the medium of pictures and words, each week gives its readers a picture of life the world over. To a more limited degree that is what Templar ' 52 seeks to do. Through the medium of pictures and words, Templar tries to give a picture of life at Temple University during the past year. What we have tried to do is to keep alive for you your happiest memories of college life. As fully as possible, we have tried to keep a pictorial record of your undergraduate days. Through the photographic medium we have tried to capture some of the spirit of homecoming, carnival, the dances, sporting events, pep rallies, dinners and carefree hours that went into the making of your life at Temple University. We realize it is impossible to capture every single event each one of you may remember, but as fully as possible we have tried to do just that. We hope that years from now when college life seems far in the misty past, you will be able to pick up your copy of Templar and recall your life at Temple University. The Editors u Any (earn?

PRESIDENT GREETS... A greot teacher prepares for life by doing two things for his students. He sets before them good examples, and he gives them courage. I hope we have done both. Basically, life at Temple University, of which this book is a record, is pretty much like life anywhere. That is one of the important lessons that college has to teach. Principles of good conduct are the same, rewards and penalties are similar. If you have found life good at Temple, you will probably find it good in the world you are about to enter. Ambition, intelligence, integrity, courage, and staying power will bring recognition in business and the professions as they have in the activities of campus and classroom. You who are being graduated are the survivors of a process of repeated selections. You were chosen four years ago from among many more who sought to enroll at Temple. Each year a certain number who were unable, unwilling, or uncertain of their goals left your ranks. You proved yourself and stayed to the end. I salute you. Only this is not the end. Not really. Graduation, as I have indicated is only a way-station. Life carries you on, presenting you with problems and tests not unlike those of student days. Since the further you progress the sharper the competition becomes, you may not always emerge as victor. But when final scores are totaled, I ' ll expect you to be in the top flight. You have shown your willingness to tackle something hard, and you have demonstrated your ability to finish the thing you start. Those two qualities form the base for the habit of success.
