It is with keen satisfaction that I recognize the marked development within the University of Southern California and its position, not only in the community, but throughout the entire Southwest. I remember those earlier days when the institution was struggling to get and maintain its place in the sun, and am grateful for the faith of the laborers who refused to surrender even when further progress seemed well nigh impossible. The present administration, faculty and student body fully justify the faith of those early pioneers. From the beginnings of the school, character building has been a chief goal, and it is most gratifying to see that this emphasis has not been lost in the later years. We have now come to the end of a half century of University history. As we face the years ahead it is with high hopes and keen anticipation of an institution which shall be without a peer in the country. I wish to express my deep appreciation for the many messages of help- ful sympathy and understanding which have come to me from the faculty and students in the passing of my son. Colonel Warren Bradley Bovard, vice- president and comptroller of the University. GEORGE F. BOVARD 19

The task confronting him was as difficult as that facing Marion McKinley Bovard in his effort to build a University out of a tiny institution. Dr. Bovard ' s place is one of honor in the history of Troy. 18
