DECEMBER, 1957 3 I THE UNIVERSITY of MAINE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION OF GREATER NEW YORK D ecem ber 1, 1957 Dear Fellow Alumni We, of the Greater New York Alumni Association, wish to make public our feelings on the impending retirement of Dr. Arthur A. Hauck as President of the University and the announced plan to honor him at his retirement. It is often said that "absence makes the heart grow fonder", and this certainly has been our experience in relation to President Hauck and the University. It is difficult for those of us who have been out of college for a number of years, and removed by some distance from Orono, to try to picture the University without him. His service both to Maine and to the thousands of students who were privileged to study under his administration cannot be overly com­ mended. Selfishly, we shall miss his periodic visits to our alumni meetings, but, more important, we know he will be greatly missed where it really counts - on the Orono campus. We "New Yorkers" are anxious to do our share - and a little more - in the alumni-wide effort to provide the President with the tribute he so richly deserves. We urge our fellow alumni across the nation to join with us, at the proper time, to make successful the effort to provide the University with the Auditorium Dr. Hauck has dreamed of for so many years. Our best wishes to Maine alumni everywhere! Sincerely, * A, B. Conner '30 P resident ABC /t Raymond H. Fogler ’15 Appointed To Arthur A.
