PROF. CHARLES LESTER
Head of Chemistry Department and a native of Covington, to whom
the annual staff dedicated year book for 1938.
Year Book Is
Dedicated T o
Charles Lester
Lee Harwell Serves as The
Faculty Adviser To
Annual Staff
The ninteen hundred and thirty
eight "Memory,” the popular year
book at Emory at Oxford, was is-1
sued this week by Editor. Ben Blue,'
and Business Manager, Epp Harris.!
The dedication this year was made
to Professor Charles T. Lester, head
of the Chemistry Department, who
was born and reared in Covington
It Is a coincident that two young
men of this community should oe
identified with this book inasmuch
as Professor Lee Harwell served in
the capacity of faculty advisor to
the annual staff.
Upon examination it may be found
that the staff in publishing this
year's annual diregarded the formal
type of journalism used in such by
giving to the students a more pic
turesque and informal interpreta
tion of natural campus life. The ed
itors have made the book more in
the story form rather in the old
style of formality.
More new feature are found in
the ''Memory” than in former years,
The staff was very fortunate in
securing the services of George Pet
ty an art editor of Esquire to make
the choice in the beauty section of
the book. Mr. Petty is well known
to many friends for his cartoons that
appear in Esquire and for the adver
tisements of Old Gold.
Another new feature is that of
carrying a daily dairy of student ac
tivities through out the year This
has added much humor in addition
to leaving many unique and plea-
5 ant memories Instead of the for
mer who who's selection, the staff
took the liberty of having a campus
ba )l 0 f fame established,
Judging by the manner in which
the books have been accepted by
the students and faculty, it may
well be concluded that this year's
-Memory'’ is the best that has ever
been published by a staff at Elmory
at oxford
