In gratitude lor his many years of d evoted service to Wake Forest College, I he Howler of 1957 is dedicated to Dr. William E, Speas. Fifty years ago, in the spring sun- shine of the magnolia-studded campus of Wake Forest College, he received his 15. A. degree, a Phi Beta Kappa graduate. He later received the M.A. from The Johns Hopkins University, and then the Ph.D. from Cornell. The influence of Dr. Speas has been far-reaching in the realm of physics, including a past presidency of the North Carolina Academy of Science, hut he is best known to students and alumni as one of the most quoted pro- fessors of all time. Though a scholar of unusual ability, he maintains an under- standing of students and a kinship with them in stud;, that have become his trademark. Continually youthful in spirit. Dr. Speas truly seems to gain as much en- joyment from each lecture demon- stration and lab experiment as his students, chuckling in his unforgettable manner when he finishes the demon- stration. He has long been an advocate of a balanced program for Wake Forest, sttessing, among other things, the im- portance of cultivation of the fine arts. Incidentally, his three daughters, Alice, Melinda, and Frances, are all accom- plished musicians. It is to men such as him that Wake Forest owes her place of greatness in the educational world of today, and it is with a true spirit of tribute that we congratulate Dr. William F. Speas on his thirty-seven years of outstanding work here. Wc feel honored to have know n him. SHfl
