Excerpt from The Record of the Class of 1940 President comfort is not, to the men in College, a glorious scholastic career or author of many well-known books. He is, in the most respectful sense possible, not even Dr. W. W. Comfort. He is Uncle Billy. He cannot be, to the average undergraduate, a figure who makes speeches at banquets and holds honorary degrees. He is the old gentle man who comes up the walk from his house on Tuesdays and Fridays to sit in the middle chair on the platform at Collection. And it isn't until the undergraduate realizes that he won't always be in that chair that it occurs to him how much he belongs there.
