*Membership in Phi Alpha, honorary scholastic organization of the college.Seniors carrying a full academic load, who have attended Whitworth College for one year,are elected to active membership and awarded a certificate if they have maintaineda cumulative scholarship average of 3.5 over four years of college study.

Appearance of a name on this program is presumptive evidence of graduation, but itmust not in any sense be regarded as conclusive. The diploma of the college, signed andsealed by its proper officers, remains the official testimony of the possession of the degree.

Flowers in the auditorium are given in memory of the late Mr. Grant Dixon,former member of the Board of Trustees, by his wife, Mrs. Grant Dixon.

Closed circuit television in the Little Theatre.

ALMA MATER

Hail, Whitworth College, hail ever hail.

Long may thy banner victorious wave;

Thy sons and daughters, loyal and brave,

Hail thee forever, hail, Whitworth, hail!
