Address Style Changing In preparation for the use of auto- mated mail sorting equipment, the Post Office Department has prepared a standardized two-letter state abbre- viation for use by mailers. Since much of our alumni mail goes out in bulk, we have started to convert our ad- dressing to the new state abbreviations. Some alumni will note that their addresses have been changed and others will soon note the differ- ence. This may help to explain why some state name abbreviations look incomplete.

Appreciation I want to express my sincere appreciation to all alumni who have an- swered the Roll Call. Your putting some of your treasure into ICC shows that you are also putting your heart into it. I know of no place more worthy of both. Every dollar that you contribute to Roll Call will be used for the improvement of faculty salaries. The improvement of faculty salaries should keep pace with the improvement of the physical plant, which every alumnus must be proud of. Thank you sincerely.
