In Remembrance DR. JOSEPH E. BURK Few of today ' s Ward-Belmont students knew Dr. Joseph E. Bink, who held the presidency of the school from 1939 through 1945. Even so, personal acquaint- ance was not necessary for an appreciation of him and his contributions to the ' ard-Belmont ideal of living. His patient efforts to instill tolerance, industry, and loyalty in each of his girls were among the corner- stones in our present strivings toward these ideals. It is in this way that we remember Dr. Burk; it is for this reason that he will continue to exert a contribu- tive influence on the Ward-Belmont of the futine. We Remember MISS GERTRUDE CASEBIER Miss Gertrude Casebier held the position of Dean of Students of Ward-Belmont from the fall of 1943 through the spring of 1946. All those girls who worked and played during their college days under her recall her willingness to aid them in all problems, personal or academic. It was with a sense of loss that they learned of her resignation from this post; her executive capabilities and personal magnetism had formed an integral part of their conception of Ward- Belmont. Miss Casebier ' s interest in the school was firm and lasting. This interest is one of those things about Miss Casebier that we appreciate and remem- ber.

JO- a a (mtne iM QentiemoM . . . Ward-Belmont as a whole has, during the past two years, been particularly aware of the helpful influence of one man, Dr. Robert Calhoun Provine: one whose quiet, unostentatious wisdom has had its efl:ect on even the smallest of campus organizations; on members of the staff and faculty; and especially on those of the student body, each of whom will carry her own recollection of him through the years of the future. He has endeared himself to every Ward-Belmont girl through the little things we will always remember about him: his detached way of telling jokes in chapel, the way he looks into space and plays with his car keys while he makes a decision, the fun he gets out of playing a tennis game or watching basketball, his special horse show hat whose brim is perpetually at the mercy of the wind, the informal parties in his home made even more memorable by his artistry at the piano, the way he tries to keep from laughing at pointed jokes in chapel, and more than anything else, his sympathetic understanding . . . the strength behind his leadership. In years to come our appreciation of him will grow as we recall his medium of bringing out the intangible good in each of us: his abstractions which brought order out of chaotic minds, his belief in the inherent good latent in every individual. It is this good in us we dedicate to him.
