TO GEORGE KEITH FUNSTON CLASS OF 1932

Clarence E. Sherman '11, chair­ man Board of Fellows, presents Ei­ genbrodt Cup to President Funston.

G EORGE KEITH FUNSTON, neither a divine nor a teacher by profession, but with faith in God and an abiding respect for scholarship, you have brought back to Trinity from your experi­ ence in the world beyond our college gates, the training and business experience so useful in the successful direction of an educational institution today, thereby breaking a Trinity tradition and, at the same time, participating in the development of a new direction in the profession of college presi­ dents.

"For your philosophy of progress, your energy and enthusiasm, and your glowing spirit of youth, a spirit that kindles in the hearts of so many of us a determination to help build a stronger, a more effective college,-we salute you!

"In behalf of the Alumni, I hereby present to you, in token, the Eigenbrodt Cup. It now bears your name, a most appropriate addition to our "Who's Who" in Trinity's recorded pageant of dis- tinguished personalities." ... CLARENCE E. SHERMAN, 1911 Chairman of Board of Fellows
