Within four or five years thereafter Wake Forest College should be ready to turn over all the facilities here to the new seminary. Our agreement with the Z.

group. In the evenmg he went to K inston where about 130 persons-alumni, their wives, and a few other friends of the College-had assembled at a dinner to hear him er in the first off-the-campus appearance of his administra­ rn t ion. Next morning he welcomed officially the freshman class to the College and in the evening headed the faculty receiving line in the gymnasium when new students had their first opportunity to meet members of the faculty and their wives. Another address on Wednesday was made to students who had tra n sferred to Wake Forest from other colleges. On Friday morning at the opening convocation he was the speaker when about 2,000 stu­ dents, members of the faculty, and visitors filled the Chapel. Throughout long hours every day of this first week many private conferences had to be held, letters and telephone calls required attention, a meeting of col­ lege and university executives in a neighboring city had to be attended, but he took every one of these responsi­ bilities in his stride, winning enthusiastic laudation on every hand and from everyone. Second week, third week, on and on, new duties added themselves up as they will continue to do through the months and years. But President Tribble has convinced hundreds already that he is equal to his tasks and that he is the man to guide Wake Forest College through this period of its eventful history. Dean Bryan stated, in presenting the new president to the faculty, that he had not heard from anyone since the day of his election to his important post a single word of disapproval. What is more, it would be difficult now to find anyone on the campus who has not expressed in superlative terms com-

Three weeks before assuming his official duties president-elect spent a few days in Winston-Salem con­ fe rring with architect, city officials, business men, com­ mi ttees, and others in preparation for his position of leadership in connection with the program to relocate the College at Reynolda. While there he accepted an invitation to address the City's Rotary Club, and another to be the Mayor's guest at a baseball game. Always in talking with individuals, in discussion with architects, in conversing with small and large groups and committees the new president proved himself alert in analyzing his job and inspired confidence in his ability to measure up to his new responsibilities. Dr. and Mrs. Tribble and their younger daughter, Bar­ bara Ann, arrived in Wake Forest the evening of Sep­ tember 7. Their son, Harold, Jr., is a third year student at Andover Newton Theological School, of which his father has been president for the past three years, where he will continue his studies for the current session. An older daughter, Betty May, reached Wake Forest Sep­ tember 11, following three months of study and touring in France. The Tribbles are established in the President's House and have become identified quickly with the life of the community. At the first meeting of the faculty for the semester, September 11, the new president spoke informally to the mendation of the new president. Such also is the ap- nel.
