TRADITIONS ON THE CAMPUS Paul R. Kitch. Builder alumnus and Wichita attor ney, is Orator of the Mound. On the afternoon of September 16 the freshman class made its annual pilgrimage to paint the "S" on the hill north of the campus. In short order the largest freshman class in the history of Southwestern College whitewashed the sixty by ninety foot letter of natural stone. New students became Builders in true fashion during the Building of the Mound ceremony on the evening of Sep tember 12. Grand parade marshal, James McPeek, led the group of approximately 900 participants up the "77" through the blackness of the night with torchbearers leading each class section. Those bearing torches were Kenneth Froman, Howard Hickman, Conrad Kahler, Donald Culver, Robert Wright, Alfred Gallagher, Ward Akers, and Edward Boyd. Orator of the Mound was Paul R. Kitch, Wichita attorney. Dr. Leroy Allen originated the Building of the Mound ceremony in 1927, and it has become one of the significant occasions of every school year.
