DEAN ELVA BAILEY

Dear Students:

"I hope the experiences you have had here

will become pleasant memories and stand you in

good stead for what I hope proves to be a most abun-

dant future. Return and visit with us often, you are

always welcome.**

PRESIDENT RAYMOND DOOLEYDear Students:

"The years 1955 and 1956 have been banner

ones for all the Lincoln College family with the

largest enrollment in modern times and prospects of

a new dormitory, as well as continued renovation of

our present buildings, are most hopeful indications

of the progress of Lincoln College.

I want to take this oppormnity to congratulate,

not only the members of the LYNXITE staff but the

students in all college activities who have given so

generously of their time and talents. I sincerely

hope that in years to come you will treasure the mem-ory of college days and that you will faithfully

keep in touch with your alma mater through visits

to the campus and the Alumni Bulletin.

Best wishes to all of you.

Student Council

The main purpose of the 1955-56 Student Council is to serve as a link between the students

and faculty, striving to bring them closer together as a unit. The Student Council has

always tried to maintain the best social and scholastical attitude for the school, and as

in the past, as now, they have done an excellent job.

Lynxite

Copy, mats, pictures, deadlines, they are all a part of putting out a yearbook as any of the

staff can tell you. One of the major changes that have been made this year is a change in name

from ECHOES to LYNXITEo With Mr. Gordon Purdy's help as advisor this annual has been made

to include both this year and last year's students and activities.

Lincoln Room

The Lincoln Room contains a large

number of books on Lincoln and other

interesting items connected with him.

It is one of the main attractions of

Lincoln College and each year many

visitors come to see this room. It is

said to be one of the most extensive

collections on Lincoln in existence.

Housing Committee

The main purpose of establishing the Men's Housing Committee is to create a backbone for a

student organization in the new dormitory for men. There are representatives from all of the

men's housing units. The officers of the Committee are Chairman, Kenneth Pawsat, and Secretary-

Treasurer, Jay Landwer. Highlights of this year's activities were the carnival held in the be-

ginning of February, and the Ugly Man Contest, which was won by Mr. Clarence Sims. The

treasury was created from this project from which next year's organization can draw from. The

faculty advisor for the Committee is Dean Bailey.

Mr. Robert Karabinus, the director, were: "You'll Never Walk Alone," "Porgy and Bess,"

"South Pacific," and "Oklahoma." The operettas were THE CHOCOLATE SOLDIER and THECHIMES OF NORMANDY.

ning chapel service. Membership on the committee is voluntary, as is attendance at the ser-

vices. Speakers for the services are chosen by the committee and may be students, faculty

members, or ministers from nearby churches. The services are for no particular denomination

and the form for each service is set up by the chapel leader in charge of that service.

YEARS AGO was the first major at

Lincoln College. It was given in

November, 1955, under the direc-

tion of Mr, William Stigall. The

LYNXITE regrets that they do not

have room enough to picture or

name the number of students who

worked so hard behind the scenes.

Years Ago There Was No Snack Bar

The newly opened Snack Bar, which incidentally is a memorial to Jefferson Davis, is quickly

becoming a stop spot between classes. The 24 inch television set is a feature attraction to stu-

dents and faculty alike.

Museum of the Presidents

First permanent exhibit ever created to honor

the thirty-three men who have served this country

as Chief Executive, the Museum of the Presidents

was unveiled during Commencement on May

29, 1955. Pictures cannot show either the beauty

or the importance of the museum. Walnut

paneling and special lighting do full justice to

the materials in the collections. Centered in

the room on a block of Vermont marble are five

flags: those of The United States, the Christian

Church, State of Illinois, the Confederacy and

Lincoln College. Dr. I^alph Newman says "This

is the first time an institution has memorialized

the office rather than the man. All of our Presi-

dents collectively are honored at the first school

named for the sixteenth president of the United

States.
