GDVEIQNUIQ LLOYD QSTARK Missouri's crusading governor, the Honorable Lloyd C. Stark, is in no small way responsible for the progress which has characterized Central Missouri State Teachers College within recent years. The intense interest with which Governor Stark has followed educational developments and has urged their refinement in state schools has given an invaluable impetus to the advance- ment of Missouri colleges. While a guest of the college at the dedication of the new library and gym- nasium on December thirteenth, Governer Stark expressed, in his presenta- tion speech, his confidence in the work of the school and its directors: The Ward Edwards Library and the Walter E. Morrow Physical Educa- tion and Health Building comprise a splendid addition to the physical plant of this institution. I am pleased to learn that this external growth is matched by a corresponding development in improved methods of instruction and gen- eral educational progress within the college itself.

Despite its original limited facilities, the college set a high stand- ard of excellence which has been re- fined and still further developed. Within recent years, however, its progress has been more tangible, being marked by the construction of two new buildings whose combined value exceeds one-half million dollars.
