Several people have written to me about their dues, so Ed Paterson - G. Duncan Wimpress this is an attempt to explain our present procedure.

At the time, there were only a hundred or 1948 so paid-up members who received the alumni magazine. It was decided that the College would undertake to publish the magazine and conduct the President Russell Ranzona, '25 affairs of the Association through a paid Secretary so that every graduate Vice-President S.

Page 2 THE ROCK Ben Hamilton, Jr., '39.. T4e f)4esi4e#d Scu . Dear Fellow-Alumni: The books of Whittier College are audited annually by a firm of pubic accoutants. A few weeks ago the Board of Trustees received their copies of the accountants' report. It was pleasant to see the record of the increased financial strength of our Alma Mater. It was gratifying to note that the assets of Whittier College have increased over $500,000 in the past four years. All of us are aware, however, that the most valuable assets of Whittier College cannot be listed on the balance sheet in dollars and cents. It is not possible to express in monetary terms the academic prestige of our college. Since 1927, Whittier College has been on the approved list of the Association of American Universities, the highest academic accrediting that can come to an American institution of higher learning. This recogni- tion came, however, from the work of those great teachers of past and present who have given Whittier College its foundation of sound academic standards. It is impossible to name all of these beloved teachers, but cer- tainly Herbert Harris, Gustaf Ostrom, Lucia Smith, Marcus Skarstedt, Florabel Rosenberger, Howard Hockett, Paul Smith, Herschel Coffin, Esther Andrews come immediately to mind. Another asset of incalculable worth is the sense of social responsibility which is present in the Whittier College community. It is a truism to say that the educated man without a conviction of social concern may be a social hazard. The conscience of Whittier College has always been ten- der. Here on this Quaker campus social ills have been honestly considered, Learning Sango Language,' the dynamics of our urban, industrialized society realistically faced. Out Writes Ben Hamilton Jr., '39, of this understanding and concern, alumni have entered all worthy human callings with an unusual sense of service.

In discussing early U.S.C. basketball teams, the "Alumni Review" says: "These early seasons were suc- cessful except when it came to playing Whittier College. The Poets won two out of three in both '07 and '08 and then in '09, won both contests against S.C.—including one by a score of 38-8." In 1910, the Trojans won 20 games and lost only three—two of them to Whittier College. "In 1913 the Trojans . . . finally won a series from Whittier," continues the magazine.

Poets May Prove Darkhorse In S.C.I.C. Track Picture For First Time in Years For the first time in many a year, Whittier College may come up with a track and field team to be reckon- ed with this season. The Q u a k e r thinclads opened their season a few weeks ago with a decisive 97-34 victory over Mt. San Antonio Junior College to put a new light in the eyes of Coaches Aubrey Bonham and Danny Tebbs. In the dashes, Whittier College has four men, Fred Barton, Tom Tucker, Buddy Hays, and Jack Brownell, who can run a 10.2 hundred or better. Barton ran 9.9 last season while Brownell scampered 100 yards in 10 seconds flat. Coach Bonham predicts that both Hays and Tucker will run under 10 seconds this season. In the hurdles, Earl Strahi leads ok the parade. Strahl ran a 13.4-seconds flight of 120-yard low hurdles in the Mt. San Antonia meet, and Coach Aubrey Bonham chuckles over another Southern California Conference basket- should improve. He also captured ball championship with his starting quintet.
