At the luncheon after the June 6, 1942 Commencement exercises at the College of Puget Sound, Dr. Edward H. Todd was presented with a number of gifts thanking him for his 29 years of service as president of the college. Dr. Todd and his wife Florence are pictured holding pieces of a silver tea service, a gift from the faculty. He was also presented with the book that he is holding, a bound volume of testimonial letters from 250 associates and friends. In the background is a framed enlargement of a colored photo of Jones Hall, the center of the college and where his office was located. Dr. Todd would be retiring from his office effective August 1st. (T. Times 6/8/1942, pg. 3)
