THE DEANS Dean of Upper Classmen The distinctive event in undergraduate life on our campus this year, l think, has been the coming of the Student Houses. The opportunity for social development which these houses af- ford should be most carefully fostered by us all. The men of 1932 have left their imprint on the customs and characters of the four houses. Their successors, the seniors of 1933, and in- deed, men of all the other classes who live in the houses, will gradually mold either for better or Worse, what I may call the spirit, the heart, of the house,-that intangible something which includes the friendliness, the hospitality, the homelikeness, the intellectual acumen, the honor of the house. To make this spirit of the finest quality, requires the cooperation of all. Each man should contribute, purposefully and positively, his best to the common good. -Fasnnarc W. HINRICHS, JR. Dean of Upper Classmen DR. JOHN R. MACARTHUR ,,, 4, ,,.. wg F REDERIC W. HINRICHS, JR. Dean of Freshmen There is probably no class more seriously affected by the depression than that of the col- lege man. And yet the nation will continue to need college graduates, though,'for the time being at least, not so many of them. Those who are chosen will be the Well-trained and thoroughly disciplined, with good academic records, personality, social training, and char- acter. It is only men with these qualifications that institutions of higher learning will feel justified in recommending for positions. The students who have been patronizing the side- shows instead of the main performance, who have felt that other things besides study are of equal importance with it, who have cut classes frequently or have come to them tardily or poorly prepared, who have been inconsistent in their Work or have not taken it seriously-such are not for these times which demand men rather than playboys.

BARRETT Registrar No man takes a greater interest in the Insti- tute, both officially and personally, than the col- lege Registrar, Professor Harry C. Van Bus- kirk. Few can fully appreciate the vast amount of work which must be done throughout the ' year in the Registration Department. Besides carrying the responsibilities of this office, Pro- fessor Van Buskirk teaches mathematics at the Institute, Cal Tech is distinguished by many who have served long terms, but few can ex- ceed thae twenty-eight years of faithful service of this conscientious official. Many students have come to know Professor Van Buskirk very intimately because of the various problems which bring them in-contact with him. Time has shown that the Registrar has dealt most fairly and considerately with the students' difficulties. He is never too busy to listen to anyone7s troubles. It is due to the faithful service and integrity of Professor Van Buskirk and the splendid cooperation of his efficient staff that the Institute is able to func- tion. fffz vf 9 f,,y,.,' .. -- f , ZQWZQM tim 5. 51. ft 1 ., 49451492459 QA H iz- .,'-4,,,.i 2,-Ze: ' pw..

Aside from his duties as Secretary, lVIr. Barrett also acts in the capacity of Assistant Treasurer, and, because of the demands of the present de- pression, is having an extremely busy time. The Business Office under the care of Mr. Barrett has been of great material benefit in enabling many students to continue the pursuit of their studies who would otherwise have been forced to drop out by reason of financial diHiculties. A visit to the Institute on Registration Day would have convinced anyone of the numerous difficulties under which the Secretary has been forced to Work this year. The fact that he per- sonally interviews students and obtains aid for them is of creditable note. Mr. Barrett has gained the popular approval and respect of every person with whom he has come into con- tact on the campus. HARRY C. VAN BUSKIRK Thirteen
