DEDICA TION At first glance the 1965 REDWOOD portrays an enjoyable year at Santa Clara. The scenes are of happy people enjoying collegiate life in relative peace and comfort. This dedication is an attempt, perhaps an inadequate one, to place within the pages of this book some of the sorrow and shock experienced by every Santa Clara man and woman with the news of two alumni, both Navy fliers. In September, during the Tonkin Gulf crisis, Everett Alvarez was reported missing in action and believed to be a captive of the North Vietnamese. Then, in April, just as we ran the risk of becoming complacent, news reached Santa Clara that James Shea had offered his life in the service of his country while flying combat missions over North Viet Nam. In less than a year two Santa Clara men fell victim to the world struggle for individual rights and freedoms. This yearbook was produced in isolation, isolation from the grim realities which comprise the world we live in. It does not contain references to men dying in the Mekong Delta or over the Gulf of Tonkin, yet these events formed an integral part of the Santa Clara year, events reported to us by every means of communication each day. On only two occasions did these events strike home. We dedicate our annual to Everett Alvarez and James Shea because they are part of the Santa Clara family. Through them it is dedicated to all Santa Clara men and women who will be called upon in the future to offer similar service and sacrifice in defense of their country. Until every man realizes the folly of war and the senselessness of inflicting pain and anguish on other men Americans will make the ultimate sacrifice. May the soul of James Shea rest in peace, and may Everett Alvarez be returned to his family and friends in good health — this is the prayer of all Santa Clarans.
