JULY 1963 Page 5 One of Whittier College's great- est assets down through the years has been its warm, friendly family spirit, and Dr. Paul S. Smith likes to refer to all students, faculty mem- bers, and alumni as the Whittier College family. Another of Whittier's outstanding assets is a smaller group of people that this writer feels also deserves to be tagged the Whittier College family, and they're a real honest to goodness family. There's Mom (Mary), Dad (Darrell Sr.), and the three sons - Cliff '63, Darrell Jr. '64, and Dave '66. Cliff really started something four years ago when he found his way to the Quaker campus from San Pedro High School. A year later brother Darrell joined the Poet fold, and now there are three Dudley boys roaming the hilly campus. Dave en- rolled at the college last September. The fact that one family has three offspring attending college at the same time is a bit unusual, but when all three are boys at the same college and all are outstanding students and athletes, then that's one for the books. The close-knit Dudley family typi- fies the spirit of Whittier College, and it was only natural that the boys would pick a school like Whit- tier. They have adopted the college, and the college in turn has adopted them. Darrell Sr. is as enthusiastic about Whittier as any alumnus. He attended UCLA for a short time in 1942 but never came close to grad- uating. It was at this time that he made up his mind that his children would have the chance to get a col- lege education. While he was raising his family Associate Director of Admissions Robert E. O'Brien '53 greets Dudley worked as a fireman in San the Dudley's (1 to r) Dave, Darrell, Cliff and their parents. Pedro.
