This revolution in building utilized the slabs for floors of thJ dormitory after lifting them to their appointed height. No frameworlsl of steel was needed — time and money were saved from the start. But more than a revolutionary building was constructed at Clemson— a growing center of textile education is making it more attractivj than ever for firms in any branch of the textile industry to select the South for their home for profits both today and tomorrwf £$uc/cfev& tit attt/ €^ //fe &ete//i DANIEL CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, INC.

For obvious reasons, Frank Howard's hair hasn't turned to silver, but in 25 years time the Clemson football coach and athletic director has made a lasting impression in the realm of college football and relating athletics. His reputation as a Southern humorist is without equal, while his renown as a football tactician reached national scope in 1948 and 1950 when his teams went unbeaten and won bowl championships. It was 25 years ago this fall that the young Howard, fresh from commencement at the University of Alabama, where he had played on an unbeaten Rose Bowl football team, first came to Clemson—line coach under Jess Neely. Nine years later, in 1940, after helping Coach Neely put the Tigers into the national limelight with a Cotton Bowl victory over Frank Leahy's undefeated Boston College team, an exuberant 30-year-old Howard took over the head athletic reins at Clemson when Neely headed to greener pastures at Rice. His first team won the Southern Conference championship, his second was ranked among the nation's "top twenty" teams, and following only mediocre success during the war years and immediately afterwards, his 1948 and 1950 teams went undefeated to rank among the nation's "top ten" while his 1951 squad finished up in the "top twenty" though losing a Gator Bowl battle to Miami. In addition to heading up the Clemson football program during a period which has seen the Tigers take a back seat to no one in the tough Atlantic Coast Conference, Howard has also had the job of directing Clemson's entire athletic program and at the same time rais- ing all the required funds. Going into his 25th season at Clemson, he has never known the athletic department to wind up a sports year in the red. A native Alabaman, with a thick drawl which helps his reputation as a "professional hill-billy," the Clemson coach was graduated from high school in Mobile before attend- ing the University of Alabama. 4 illinium iiiitiiHiii illinium hi in illiillllin i iiiniitiii mint iiimimmiiiiiiiiimiiiiii n lliiiiliiiini llillllllllllllllllliiliiliiliillilllllililiiiililllllllllllimlillllllllllllllimiiiiminj PENDLETON OIL MILL COMFORT Pendleton, South Carolina BEAUTY ENTERTAINMENT CLEMSON THEATER The Grass on Clemson's Football Clemson, South Carolina Field Was Fertilized With Always The Best In Film Fare Pendleton Fertilizer 1 1 1 1 IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 M 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 n 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 m M page seven A Clemson Monologue .
