THE PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE MAY 2 5 ' 54 DR. FRANCIS PENDLETON GAINES To the Seniors: The college yearbook gathers and preserves a wide variety of the im- portant elements of acade-mic life. Here are the views of places you love, pictures of people you admire, summaries of undertakings in which you had conspicuous parr. Such a book holds promise of singular and lovely enhancement of value. Hurrying years bring the mutations of life but here is the immutable record of a significant period; and the record grows ever more precious as seen through lengthening perspective. Such a book is more than brief history. It is a treasury of remembrance. It could be. moroever, a power-house of the soul, for renewals of strong purpose. May this particular book bring to each of you largest joy and finest enrichment. FRANCES P. GAINES

WSJ7c DEDICATION With bo+h teachers and students, friendliness and un- derstanding have become characteristic of Marshall Fish- wick. A man whose willingness to devote his time and efforts to so many worthy endeavors must be recognized as a positive, driving force, permeating the atmosphere of Washington and Lee. In the field of American studies, he stands as a pro- vocative symbol of this institution ' s forward movement toward a well-rounded program of individual develop- ment. His lectures achieve the all important goal of in- spiring critical thought among students. Not only in the classroom, but also in his office and home, his hospitality is well-known and appreciated. In a short time his versatile personality has been mani- fested in almost every phase of campus life; thus, with humility and a deep sense of graiitude we dedicate this, the 1954 CALYX, to Dr. Marshall Fishwick.
