Dear Fellow Alumni:
The last issue of the Alumni Magazine carried a report of the fact that I expected to be in China during the Fall Semester on a deputation visit for the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions. I arrived in Shanghai on August 31 and am now engaged in a survey of missions, churches, schools^ universities, hospitals, and other enterprises which the Presbyterian Chui'ch supports. Our report will carry recommendations as to policies, personnel, and budget as the program is rebuilt in this vast country. There are five of us, only two of whom are here as yet. Our return home will probably be late in December. Dr. Lloyd S. Ruland, a Secretary of the Foreign Board, and I came to China by air- plane. I flew from Maryville to New York on August 21, with in- structions to be ready to fly next day to London, India, and China, but plans were changed and August 23 I flew from New York to San Francisco. On August 25, we left On a U. S. Navy plane for Pearl Harbor, Guam, Okinawa, and Shanghai. Actual flying time over the Pacific was 43 hours, but in addition we spent a night at Honolulu and a night at Guam. Traveling under high priorities from the Department of State we had no difficulties. We are to visit the principal centers of China except those in Communist power and some in the far west, traveling chiefly by air.
At the College This mission took me away from Maryville almost a week before college opened and as I write this I have had no word since we left San Francisco two days before students reported. There were still a number of faculty and staff adjustments to be made and the problem of housing students was a tough one. We turned away large numbers. I expect to hear that after students had found some rooms in town and town residents of the community had registered, our total would not be fa r under the pre-war figures, even though we had used some space in Carnegie for married veterans. Dean McClelland is serving as Administrative Chairman and Dean Hunter as Faculty Chairman during my absence. Judge S. O. Houston, Chairman of the Directors, Judge A. E. Mitchell, Chairman of the Committee on Finance, and Judge J. C. Crawford, Recorder and Acting Treasurer, also are carrying extra duties.
Faculty and Staff We are glad to welcome back a number of our people who have been away and to introduce an unusually large group of new members of the faculty and staff. Their names appear elsewhere in this issue. We have made good progress in rebuilding.
New Majors Not only are we re-establishing our major in Art, but are inaugurating new majors in School Music, Business Administration, and Physical Education. Alumni will be interested also in the fact that after four years' omis- sion, a full schedule of intercollegiate athletics will be conducted.
New Curricolum
The faculty are now shaping up the details of the proposed new curriculum and we hope to have them ready for specific announcement before the year is over, although other readjustments and my present absence may slow down its completion somewhat.
Class Reunions at Commencement
I hope that travel and other conditions next May will make possible a renewal of alumni visits and of a regular schedule of alumni class reunions. The fifty-year class reunion is the only one which has been kept up through the War. The Alumni Office will be announcing the list of 1947 reunions. Alumni Day will be Tues- day, May 20.
Cordially yours.

Fellow Alumni:
Anotlier year rolls by and again our annual Homecoming Day ap- proaches. The date is November 2. The war is over. The boys are back. The college halls are crowded witli students. Morale is high. Prospects are excellent. Let us gatlrer in great numbers to join in happy recollections, and in enthusiastic expectations.
As you know, President Lloyd will not be here to greet us, for he is far away in China on a special mission for our Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions. Dean Hunter and Dean McClelland, who are in charge in his absence, and the Alumni members on the faculty will make us cordially welcome. Professor Griffitts and his group of helpers will serve as official hosts and hostesses. Carl Storey and his committee are in charge of the barbecue. "Nuff sed." The football game with Middle Tennessee State College ( Murfreesboro ) will be a fitting close for the day.
Of course we do not wish to confine ourselves to semi-annual bmsts of entlrusiasm on Homecoming Day and at Commencement. As loyal Alumni we wiU not forget to send in our annual dues ( $2 ) to our Execu- tive Secretary, Rev. James R. Smith, '35, and will keep him notified of our whereabouts. If we can give him any items of news regarding ourselves or other Maryville folks, it will enable him to fill those columns of Alumni news in the Alumni Magazine that we all enjoy so much.
The Wilson Fund is still open. Here is a chance to help our Alma Mater and at the same time to contribute to a memorial to Dr. Samuel T. Wilson, our loved Professor for many years, and dien one of the greatest Presidents any college ever had.
The Living Endowment is a system in common use among colleges now, whereby annual conbibutions can easily provide tlie income that would be secured from large capital gifts. Maryville has such a system. Ai^e you participating in it?
We are proud of om- Ahna Mater. Let us be ready and eager to spread her fame and extend her influence among our friends and as- sociates wherever our lot has been cast.
Sincerely yours,
H. J. BASSETT, '04

FOUNDERS DAY
The fourteenth annual Found e r s Day Service will be held in Voor- hees Chapel a t 9:45 a. m. Satur- day, November 2. The general theme will be'Tlie World- wide Mission of the Christian Col- lege." The Rev. Dr. Charles T . Leber, of New York, will be the speaker. Dr. Leber has been a Secre- tary of tlie Presby- terian Board o f Foreign Missions since 1936 and in that capacity has visited missions in the Middle East, the Far East, and Africa. He is also a mem- ber of tlie General Council of the Presbyterian Church and of the executive committee of the Foreign Missions Conference of North America.
Judge Houston, Chairman of the Board of Di- rectors, and Dean Hunter and Dean McClelland will also take part in the service. All alumni are cordially invited and urged to attend.
DR. LEBER
FIFTY-YEAR REUNION
There were three members of the Fifty- Year Class who attended the alumni dinner and the Commence- ment exercises in May. At graduation the Class of 1896 numbered seven, of whom four are still hving. The tliree deceased members are James Allen Davis, James Moses Ewing, and Harvey Boyd McCall. All four living members planned to be present, but tlie development of tlie railroad strike prevented Rev. Frank Jonathan Milman of New Jersey from coming. The three who were present are Roger Sherman Boardman, Jonathan Houston Newman, and Samuel Bovd Parker.
Each of these three spoke briefly at the alumni dinner and fifty-year certificates were awarded to them at the Commencement exercises. A similar certificate was sent to Mr. Milman. Mrs. Nevwnan and Mrs. Parker were also present.
The following citations and presentation were read at the Commencement exercises by President Lloyd of tlie College:
"Roger Sherman Boardman, who resides in Bloom- field, New Jersey, and has his business in New York City, graduated at Maryville College while his father was serving as the fourth President of the institution. After his graduation here he attended Harvard Uni- versity two years and received a second degree there. For the next three years he taught in Texas and Okla-
homa. But in 1902 he entered what proved to be his life work- the pubhshing business. For ten years he was with Ginn and Company, Boston, and beVinne Press, New York. Since 1912 he has been with Charles Scribners Sons, New York publishers, in the general field of editorial supervision, except that following World War I he spent almost two years with tlie Red Cross in Paris. His writings in- clude a book containing the biography of his an- cester, Roger Sherman, and also ten biographical sketches in the Dictionary of American Biography. We are sorry that Mrs. Boardman is unable to be here today.
"Jonathan Houston Newman of Johnson City, Ten- nessee, and Mrs. Houston are related to Maryville College in several ways. The one of which we are thinking today is his graduation in 1896. For eight years after graduation he taught in North Carolina and for three or four of those years was principal of tlie literary Department of the Asheville Farm School. Since that time he has been engaged in the general insurance business. For many years he has been known as a Bible student and teacher and is an Elder in the First Presbyterian Church in his city.
"Samuel Boyd Parker of Knoxville, and Mrs. Parker, like Mr. and Mrs. Newman, were Maryville College students. Mr. Parker taught for ten years, was a YMCA secretary for eleven years, a newspaper man in Knoxville three years, and for the past 26 years has taught matliematics in Knoxville High School. He is to retire at the end of the current year. I first saw him and heard him speak and sing at Mary- ville College when I was a student here and he was a Tennessee State YMCA student secretary. I can remember him still for he made a definite impression on me. Singing has been his principal avocation and he was a church choir director for 26 vears.
"To you the Class of 1896 who are here, and to the one who is absent, I extend in behalf of your Alma Mater hearty greetings, sincere congratulations, and earnest good wishes in celebration of this an- niversary. All of you are Christian men who serve in the Church of Christ and in the causes of Christ. In recognition of your contiibutions to your dav and generation, I place in the hands of each of vou a cer- tificate which is a symbol of affection and honor. Mav God bless you."
FACULTY AND ALUMNUS TO IRAN
Mr. Commodore Fisher of the Class of 1916, who served his Alma Mater during tlie college vear of 1945-1946 as Associate Professor of Historv, after twenty years of service as a missionary-educator in Iran, finally answered the urgent call to return to Iran to re-establish certain of tlie educational \\'ork there. He and Mrs. Fisher and daughter, Pegsrs' sailed in July to resume their residence and work on the foreign mission field.
FIVE
SUMMER ON THE CAMPUS
Summer at the College was not the quiet restful time that some people imagine it was. Synod and Synodical, young people's conferences, and a music festival brought many people to the campus and kept the staff exceedingly busy.
The Svnod, Synodical Society, and Westminster Fellowship Council of Mid-South met on the campus June 25-28. Over three hundred persons attended. Four voung people's conferences were held. The Knoxville Presbytery (Presbyterian Church, U.S.) conferences for senior young people and for inter- mediates were held simultaneously from June 17 to 22, with 266 attending; the East Tennessee senior conference (Presbyterian Church, U. S. A.), June 10 to 17, with 125 attending; and the intermediate con- ference (Presbyterian Church, U. S. A.), July 1 to 8, with 1.38 attending.
From August 12 to 23 Mr. Guy Maier held a music festival and workshop on the campus. About 240 musicians attended, most of them teachers, from a wide area including Canada and States as far away as New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Indiana, and New York. Mr. Maier is a very fine piano teacher who holds seminars each summer in various parts of the counhy. This summer his seminars were at Mac- Phail College of Music, Minneapolis, Sherwood Music School, Chicago, Juilliard School of Music, New York, and Maryville College. Mr. Maier con- ducted classes in piano pedagogy and he and his staff gave private lessons to those desiiing them. Each evening there was a concert in the Chapel.
On May 31, the College gave a luncheon in honor of Mrs. Juhus Young Talmadge, of Georgia, President General of the D.A.R., Mrs. C. Edward Mmray, of New Jersey, 'Vice-President General, and Mrs. 'Van- Court Carwithen, of Pennsylvania, National Chair- man of Approved Schools. The local D.A.R. chapter was invited to be co-hostess with the College.
NEW COLLEGE DIRECTORS
The following four new Directors of Maryville Col- lege were elected in June by the Presbyterian Synod of Mid-South to fill vacancies on the Board.
Rev. Harrison Ray Anderson, D.D., LL.D., Litt.D., Pastor of the Fourth Presbyterian Church, Chicago, Illinois, one of the great churches of America. Dr. Anderson has led the February Meetings on tvvo oc- casions, in 1939 and 1944.

Before going to the College he was a pastor in Detroit and Water- loo, Iowa. He is regarded as one of the most con- structive leaders in the field of Christian education.
The degree of Doctor of Divinity was conferred upon the Rev. Sam H. Frankhn, Jr., of the Class of 1924, now Acting Secretary of the Board of Foreign Missions in the Chicago office. His home was in Maryville and his father and mother still five across tlie street from the campus. After graduation from college he attended McCormick Theological Semin- ary, recei\ing tlie Bachelor of Divinity degree there in 1928. Later he received the Master of Sacred Theologv degree from Union Theological Seminary, New York, and spent one year at the University of Edinburgh. For five years he was a missionary to Japan, where among his friends was tlie famous Japanese Christian Kagawa. Then he was associated with Dr. Sherwood Eddy in a number of his pil- grimages to Europe, and after that became manager of the Delta Co- operative Farms in Mississ i p p i , in whose establish- ment Dr. Eddy was a leader.

MRS. SNYDER RESIGNS MISS MASSEY APPOINTED
Mrs. Grace Pope Snyder, Supervisor of Women's Residence and Head of Pearsons Hall, resigned on September 16 to accept a position as counselor in the guidance program of the schools at Berryville, Arkansas. Last spring Mrs. Snyder completed ten years of service at tlie College and expressed tlien the desire to enter work which would allow her to spend a greater portion of time in counseUng witliout the responsibility of residence supervision. She ex- pected to complete the first semester here but at tlie request of the Berryville superintendent asked for a release in September and it was granted by the Col- lege.
In her years at the College Mrs. Snyder has render- ed a noteworthy service in residence supervision and in furthering the cooperation of students and faculty in administering tlie social hfe of the campus. Her efi:orts in this direction have paved the way for furtlier progress in the years ahead.
Mrs. Emma Lee Worley, formerly Head of McLain Memorial Hall, succeeded Mrs. Snyder as Head of Pearsons Hall, and is serving as Supervisor of Wom- en's Residence for the remainder of the fall semester. Mrs. Esther C. Brunson, of Pine City, New York, was appointed Head of McLain Memorial Hall. She is assisted by Mrs. J. E. Edmondson, of Lynnville, Ten- nessee.
In January Miss E. Frances Massey, of Oxford, Alabama, a graduate of Maryville College in the Class of 1934'^ will join the college staff for duties corresponding to tliose of a dean of women. She will not serve as head of a dormitory but will main- tain an administrative office on the campus.
Miss Massey was an honor student throughout her four years at Maryville. She was active in campus hfe, particulariv in dramatics. Since her graduation she has taught biology at the Anniston, Alabama, High School. Thus she brings to her new duties at Maryville an intimate knowledge of the College and its activities supplemented by a successful teaching experience.
THE ARTISTS SERIES
The Ai-tists Series again will present three concerts of unusual attraction and high quaUty. The first concert has been set for Friday night, November 1, as a part of the Homecoming weekend and tickets will be available to alumni at a special rate. If purchased ahead of time through the Alumni Of- fice the price will be $1.20 (tax included); at the door tickets will cost $1.80. Address all requests to the Alumni Office, Maryville College.
Leonard Pennario, briUiant young American pianist, will give the November 1st concert. Since he was twelve, Mr. Pennario has been a pupil of Mr. Guy Maier and he played twice this summer in Voorhees Chapel at the Guy Maier Music Festival. Those who heard him then were deeply impressed by his playing and are looking forward eagerly to his con-
cert in November. He was in the Army and gave concerts throughout die CBI theater.
The second concert, on January 25, will be "A Night in Old Vienna"— the finest music of Vienna sung by five outstanding young artists. Mona Brad- ford, contralto, and John Gurney, basso, are known to Maryville audiences through previous concerts. The other three singers are Laura Castellano, soprano, Richard Gordon, tenor, and Eduardo Rael, baritone. Giuseppe Bamboschek is the musical director. Their program will include some of the greatest writings of Haydn, Mozart, Schubert, and Brahms, as well as the hlting aiis, waltzes, and polkas of old Vienna.
On February 24 Grislia Goluboff, young American viohnist, will close tlie Series. As a child prodigy, Mr. Goluboff tom-ed the United States and Canada, Europe, and Australia. Then he retired for six years for study and rest. Last fall he returned to the concert stage and won new acclaim as a mature musician and gifted artist.
Season tickets may be purchased for $3.60 (tax included) from tlie Alumni Office or from Professor George D. Howell.
FALL ENROLMENT

He taught in the public schools in East Tennessee and in Maryville College before entering the ministry.
LIFE MEMBERSHIPS IN THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
Several of you have written the Alumni Office for information on Ufe membersliips. Since others of you have doubtless had similar questions in your minds about it, it seems wise to give the information in the Magazine where all can have it.
We have made a survey of what the associations in many of the colleges and universities are doiirg. This article is something of a summary of what this survey revealed plus the attitude taken by the Execu- tive Committee in session on September 16th at the College.
Those institutions that put in a form of life mem- bership have discontinued it. They report that the life membership became impractical especially for the tliiee following reasons: (1) it required account- ing that was too costly since reserve funds had to be set up from which to draw from year to year to pre- vent exhausting the capital income before there was any source of replacement; (2) it was based upon the earning power of such a reserve fund invested at interest— the investment possibilities have been so greatly curtailed and the income from investment so small that this practice has had to be eliminated; (3) it rather unexpectedly resulted in ahenating the life members from the institution, for when the dues were paid for hfe the institution was dismissed from the mind and a gradual and subtle esti-angement set in.
With this material before them the Executive Com- mittee voted to pass over tlie matter of Ufe member- ships until a fm-ther study could be made. The feel- ing was that it was not a wise procedure under exist- ing circumstance. Especially did they feel this to be true under our circumstance, for, if the large univer- sities with the staffs that they have find the labor too much, then we who are exti-emely hmited in office and clerical help had better be careful of it.
But we should not leave the picture witliout tak- ing a look at what these institutions are doing. Many of them, probably most of them, have discontinued alumni dues altogether. Instead of alumni dues they have substituted the alumni living endowment fund;
some of them call it simply tire alumni fund. The general principle is the same with tlrem all. They ask tlieir alumni to give each year (and this apphes to the big state universities as well as the smallei colleges) to this alumni fund; the minimum so far as we have been able to establish it is $10.00.
Some associations are run on theii- own income. Many ha\'e to have supplementary income from their institutions. The institutions charge such supple- mentary funds to pubhc relations and promotion. In the state universities the association is either self supporting or the support comes from legislative appropriations. Maryville, like many other similar colleges, has no state appropriation to call upon. We have had $2.00 alumni dues as a purely vol- untary participation. Out of 3000 graduates less than seven hundred pay dues. As we close the year's books it looks now as if our membersliip will not do as well this year as last. The Magazine goes to every one regardless of whether dues are paid or not. The cost of that Magazine has steadily risen; it has been expanded some also.
Our living endowment fund has done very well. We are looking forward to the day when we can have enough help to make a complete and accurate report of all who are participating in that fund. It is open to the whole Association, and a larger partici- pation of the membership would be encouraging.
We should like to hear from you. Do you feel that to do away with all alumni dues and to substi- tute an alumni fund to which annual payments of no stipulated amount can be made would increase our income?
