The 1953 BISON .OOKmO TO H0WA.0 0M«^ We, the Class of 1953, offer this yearbook as a record of the happy days we have spent at Howard University, our beloved Alma Mater. This volume, however, is more than a mere record of the past. Chronicling, as it does the earl\' careers of many who will be tomorrow's leaders, it is also in a very real sense an earnest of the futiu'e. With this thought in mind, we have chosen as the theme of our yearlx)ok: "The Howard of the Future." ,W'^ The 1953 BISON ^^^«***- CHARLES HAMILTON HOUSTON 3n fflcmoriam and ©cdication to Charles Hamilton Houston During the \ cars you served so well as Dean of the Law School, you instilled into yoiu- students an idealism and a sense of devotion which elevated and transformed the legal profession among our group. As a pioneer in the Civil Rights Movement and as the initiator of the strategy used in the legal battles which the movement promoted, you were the outstanding and most effective force against segregation and discrimi nation in America. In this fight for freedom for your fellow man, you unselfishly sacrificed both monetary gain and personal health on the altar of service, but in this sacrifice you added dignity and honor to the profession of yoiu" choice. Because of yoiu* eminence as Legal Scholar, as Civil Rights Cru sader, and as Humanitarian, we the Class of 1953, humbly dedicate this book to \'ou. The Class of 1953 DR. MORDECAI WYATT JOHNSON President of the University 1926 - 1953 To all whose names and faces appear in The 1953 BISON Greetings: We have had great times together at Howard—in work, in fellow ship and in growing.

Meanwhile, I pray that God will bless the life, the work and the loved ones of ever> one of you. SincereK' >()tu-s, MoRDECAi W. JOHNSON President ADMINISTRATION DR. JAMES M. NABRIT, JR. DR. ARMOUR j.
