Dedication A quiet brook meanders across the countryside in an apparently listless manner and seems to serve little purpose in the scheme of nature. Later, it becomes a larger stream, enters a river, becomes part of a mighty waterway and ul- timately deposits its water into one of the great oceans. As the stream proceeds upon its course, it gradually be- comes an influence of importance by supplying water, power, facilities for commerce, and transportation. The little brook contributes much to the welfare of modern society. F loodwaters can cause the stream to overflow its pro- per channels, to forsake its useful purpose for mankind, and to wreck tremendous havoc upon the productive land and thriving communities through which it passes. We, the members of the Class of 1957, are but a few of the small brooks that are this year entering upon a larger phase in their progress toward the ocean. It is our fervent hope that we seniors, the larger streams, now nearing the oceans of life, will find our places as useful citizens rather than undisciplined iioodwaters which menace the well be- ing of society. The Class of 1957 dedicates this volume of the Colophon to the little brooks and streams wending their ways toward the sea. 7s W 'X ,c A may so 're . gg.--'-:3:g,.ii?'-Ib '-- 1 6 I L f ie5iW.f 31111 is f , I f .J f ww K ' Aamir, Q
