The second category of needs, in the area NEW CAMPUS ADDITIO-NS of scholarships and endowments, can best be answered in the estate plan­ ning of alumni and friends. As we look in retrospect, legacies from two women, Miss Minnie Mandelle and Mrs. Winifred Dewing Wallace, have meant more to the financial stability of the College than any philanthropies in which the College has shared. Living as we do in an era of vanishing estates, it is increas­ ingly important that hundreds of alumni and friends remember the College in their estate-planning. The months just ahead will largely determine the future of the College. In the century and a quarter of our existence we have built solidly.

The future of our College depends on at­ tracting a sizable number and of challenging them with the opportun­ ities afforded through ideas and understanding, and the inculcation of ideals by which they can live and lead.

Many phases of the work for the 125th anniversary of Kalamazoo College, to be observed during the academic year, 1957-1958, are well under way. A second ail-day session will be held on January 19 for the major planning committees, including Homecoming, Com­ mencement, the Convocation, Publicity and Promotion, Mementos, and Regional Alumni Meetings.

Above, Dr. Arnold Mulder, professor emeritus of English, ponders the final touches to the history of Kalamazoo College he is writing, covering the past twenty-five years. The book will be published this spring and will be available for purchase by alumni during the an­ niversary year.

Miss Sue Slayton '15 is shown at the right, examining samples of Wedgwood plates at the College Bookstore. Miss Slayton is serving on Rolph Rolston's Mementos Committee, and they are making o selection of a Wedgwood commemorative plate for Kalamazoo Col­ lege which will be among the mementos you will wont to hove, marking this anniversary observance.

Dr. H. Lewis Batts '43 of the biology de­ partment is supervising the filming of a spe­ cial anniversary production for use at alumni meetings during the anniversary year. Dr. Batts is shown at the right, working on campus scenes. The film will be twenty minutes in length and will be in color, with sound. He is being assisted in the script by Mrs. Donald Balch, College drama director.

WINTER ALUMNUS, 1957 7 Miss Nancy West, Kalamazoo. College sen­ ior from Newton, Mass., was the first recipient of the Winifred Dewing Wallace Memorial Scholarship for a summer's study for an undergraduate majoring in English to study abroad or at one of the leading American summer schools in English. Miss West spent last summer at Breadloof, Mid­ dlebury College in Vermont. She is an out­ standing student, and among her extra­ curricular activities, she has served as vice president of the Student Senate.

Another phase of the Winifred Dewing Wallace Memorial Program in English brought to the campus on November 26, the distinguished English scholar, author and critic, Dr. David Daiches. First to appear in the English lecture series, Dr. Daiches spoke on " The Contemporary English Novel."
