DEDICATICDN. ln a Time when world problems dominafe our Thinking. we may iusfly be proud of The feeling of which we are conscious day by day. From The Time when The firsT covered wagon moved across Wesf Texas, our forefafhers have been free To do as They pleased. Unhampered by The influence of biased and infolerable opinions, freedom of speech, press, and religion have been held in The highesf of regard. Wifh The esfablishmenf of Texas Tech, Those same Theories were puT inTo pracTice. They have remained unchallenged Through The years. We Talce pleasure in dedicaTing This volume of LA VENTANA To ThaT spirif of democracy which prevails, and To Those Wesf Texas pioneers who are responsible for iTs exisfence.
