Wah-Hoo-Wah!

BY FAR THE LARGEST, loudest, and most roaring of the roaringest Wah-Hoo- Wahs is given this month for the man who was inducted Eleventh President, in the line of the Wheelock Succession, just 25 years ago this month. He is a guy we can all cheer for. He is the one big reason for the unity and morale of Dartmouth College.

This distinguishing characteristic is the envy of other colleges. It was given tangible form in the phenomenal success of the Anniversary Campaign of the Alumni Fund last spring when 10,800 alumni and friends contributed $196,000 to the Alumni Council's annual drive.

Prexy was forced to withdraw from the OPM job in Washington when the decision practically amounted to choosing between government full time work and the presidency of Dartmouth. The latter, he said, he was "not ready to give up." Others can carry the heavy burden of work that was his in Washington. But there are no three men to equal the strength and wisdom of his guidance of the College in these times, when the going is tough—when he is at his best.
