DEDICATED h OUR MOTHERS AND DADS They put us on the train and we ' re pretty sad at having to leave them. But in a few days after we get to school, we forget how sod we were to leave home. They sit back at home in the evenings, and they talk about us and wonder what we ' re doing and how long they ' ll have to wait this time before we write. They figure up how many days it will be until we ' ll be home. Then when we do get home, they let us have the car, knowing full well they won ' t see much of us until it ' s time to go back to school. On the surface, it looks as if we ' re pretty thoughtless, doesn ' t it? Perhaps we ore, but every now and then, we get a pong of con- science and try to express to those parents just how grateful we ore to them . . . how much we appreciate the opportunity they ' re giving us. It ' s with a bit of conscience that we dedicate the 1941 Corolla to the folks back home, the people who, after all, will always rank the highest in our estimation. To mothers and fathers everywhere . . . North, South, East, and West . . . wherever there is a family who waits for that letter from ' Bamo, the 49th edition of the Corolla is respecfully dedicated.

PAUSE U HONOR SOME OF OUR FRESHMEN OF DAYS LONG PAST Yes, most of these men were once freshmen at the University on the bonks of the Block Warrior, but the Gorgos Oak wasn ' t quite so big, and the Roundhouse wasn ' t quite so mellowed as it is now. To these men, men who carried on in the Alabama tradi- tion, bringing fame and honor to their State and University, the 1941 Corolla pays a respectful and sincere tribute. % General John Noble Kennedy, Confederate veteran, and at time of death, oldest living alumnus of the University. Frank Maxwell Moody, President of the First Notional Bonk of Tuscaloosa. Dr. William Wode Harper, one of Alabama ' s most prominent physicians. Justice Hershel Whitfield Aront, former Dean of the Ohio State University Low School, and at his death a Justice on the United States Circuit Court of Appea ls. Honorable William B. Bankhead, Speaker of the United States House of Representatives. Dr. John W. Abercrombie, President of the University before Dr. Denny, and former state superintendent of education. Dr. C. M. Pegues, while not an alumnus of the University, was an instructor in Spanish here for the past six years.
