CRAIG ADDRESSES COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES

PRINCIPALS IN THE 99TH COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES WHICH WERE HELD on June 3, are left to right: Norris D. Hellwig, '49, valedictorian ; John W . Craig, '29, commencement speaker, AVCO vice-president, and general man ager of its Crosley Divi sion, Cincinnati, 0 ., and Father George J. Renne ker, S.M ., president of the University of Dayton .

In his address to the graduates, Mr. Craig complimenting them on the achievement of a college degree stated that the real test lies ahead . "The manner in which you meet such problems will determine more the real meaning of your education than will the official granting of this degree, with 'all the rights, honors and privileges a ttached thereto'." A compa rison was made with conditions of twenty years ago--when Mr. Craig earned his diploma. The fields of television and sales engineering, merch a ndising were cited as typical examples of this change. H e pointed out th a t in 1946, 6,500 televi ion receivers were produced. In 1949, total production will be nearly two million. " Education produces a literate people, but the mere ability to read and write, however well, does not necessarily produce men a nd women who put first things first," Mr. Craig said in evalua ting our educational ystem. He pointed out tha t education a nd industry have been close partners in many ways. "Businessmen have believed in the power of education with the same confidence with which educators have looked to busines to provide opportunity for the gradu ates of their schools . . Wealth can no

longer be the principal goal toward which h e set his course. Our tax laws make it virtually impossible for him to amass a million dollars." Along with achieving a certain monetary goa l- Mr. Craig pointed out that men and women should receive pl ea ure and self satisfaction from their vocations. H e also pointed out that the greatest demand for persons going into business was in the selling fi eld . V ery few people are properl y qualified to do a good job in selling the products of their employers. H e also pointed out th a t the greatest demand for persons going into business was in the selling field . Very few people are properly qualified to do a good job in selling. Norris D.
