Page TK li ' A ,Awgg ' - ' 4. Dr. Cecll F Cheverton tudent life at TCU is influenced immeasurably by faculty members and Administrative officers who take great interest in campus activities. Three men who had much concern about student affairs died in 1953. Because they knew and loved students they were especially valuable 1 to the University, Dr. Cecil F. Cheverton, whose ability to inject illustrative stories into his lectures about the Bible was admired by students, died unexpectedly during the summer of 1955. Since 1947, when he became chairman of the department of religion, he charmed undergraduate students into becoming acquainted with the Bible. He first came to TCU in 1943 as professor of Old Testament in Brite College of the Bible. L. A. Dunagan, who also died in the summer of 1955, spent exactly half of his life as an employee of TCU. He became assistant business manager in 1924. Mr, Dunagan is said to have known more students than anyone else on the campus. Many thousands of students became acquainted with the jovial Mr. Dunagan by chatting with him across a Business Office counttr. He received little publicity, but numerous students will remember him as a special friend. The Rev. Frank Edwin Billington retired from 25 years of teaching at TCU in 1945. But he did not retire from University life. His interest in the school remained fervent until his death in 1955. Serving as the first minister of the Arlington Heights Christian Church of Fort Wforth from 1926 to 1928, he also was professor of religious education at TCU until 1929. From that time until his retirement he was professor of Christian ministries. Students will continue to benefit from the influence of these men who were such vital parts of TCU. 8
