• DURING two years at Westminster Choir College with one year of touring with the Westminster choir, Davis established a friendship with a teacher, George l ynn, who ha$ composed and dedicated two choral pieces fa the A Cappello chorus. FORMING a Christian home with his wife Belly for their three sons is an expression of faith in the life of a man who exemplifies and encourages Christianity among his acquaintances. He may interrupl a game to leach his boys a principle. A staunch pillar of truth declares the radiance of i ts freedoms. To be strong in truth means defending it. Defending it demands person al integrity. Holding the perfection in truth as the goal of his total experience, as a teach er, as a stud~nt working for an adva nced degree, as a Christian developing the spirituality of others in the edification of music, Kenneth Davi s refu ses to compromise the principles of his faitJl. Seeing the n ecessity of leading others into truth, he spent several years preparing himself at H arding, NortJ, Texas Sta te College. and W estminster Choir 10 College. Much of his time is given to r evealing spiritual truths in the music of congregational singing. Besides leading singing a t the College Church, Da vis teach es a Bibl e study class, directs the A Cappella Chorus, conducts the symphonette, and t eaches college music classes . Because h e upholds the truili , his is the knowledge of its freedom-compa ssion, spirituality, tolerance, love, humility . Because h e seeks first God and ilie essence of His truili and because of his dedi cation to th is truth, ilie 1959 Pet it Jean is dedicated by ilie senior class to Professo r KENNETH DAVIS.
