DEDICATION For twenty years Alfred Evans Clarke has been identified with this campus, first as instructor of history and government at Port- land Junior College from l94-6 to l95O, and then with the added duties of part-time Director of Admissions at PIC and UMP until l959, when he was appointed full-time Director of Admissions for the Portland campus of the University of Maine. Mr. Clarke has won a place in the hearts of thousands of students over the years, for his fatherly interest and helpful words of counsel have continued long after his duties as Director of Admissions have been completed in individual cases. For more than twelve years he was advisor to both the Student Council and the Cuting Club, and for ten years he was also coach of the golf team. Even now, busy as he is, he finds time each year to help at the Mountain Day cookout and to act as Santa Claus at the annual Christmas Party for the children of UMP faculty and staff workers. A A native of Gorham, New Hampshire, where he was born on October 29, 1905, Mr. Clarke attended Dartmouth College, where he became director of Dartmouth's famous Outing Club and a member of the board of directors of Dartmouth's Winter Carnival. After graduating from Dartmouth in 1928, he worked in a variety of positions for the next twelve years before attending graduate school at the University of New Hampshire. During this period Mr. Clarke and Annette Bouchard were married. Their first daughter, Patricia, was born two years after their marriage, and their second daughter, Carolyn, ten years later. The Clarkes now have four grandchildren. At the outbreak of World War II, Mr. Clarke was teach- ing high school at Berlin, New Hampshire. When the shipyards opened at South Portland, he was made director of supervisory training for the Todd Shipyards Corporation. His work was so successful that he was promoted to become general director of training for the Todd Corporation, supervising the training of employees at yards scattered throughout the nation. When the war ended and he was free to return to peace-time education, Dean Bonney of Portland Junior College learned of his availability and persuaded him to join the faculty which was starting to develop what is now the Portland campus of the University of Maine.
