P ELMER BECKER, DD, Interested in youth and their problems as well as in the Christian life and emphasis of the church, Dr. Becker, president for the past eight years, has won his way into the hearts of the students who have been on the campus during that time. Huntington College is his Alma Mater, graduating in l924. Following his graduation he spent l3 years in the active pastoral work in Ontario, Canada. ln l937 the General Conference of the United Brethren Church elected him as Secretary ot Christian Education, a position which brought him into close contact with the youth ot the church. After spending a term ot tour years in this position, the Board of Trustees elected him to till the responsible position of President of Huntington College. Since that time, Dr, Becker has been zealously engaged in the expanding program of the college. His greatest desire is to have our college, as a Christian school, ade- quately fill the needs ot the youth ofthe church, community, state and nation who may come within her doors to prepare for life's service. 10

MUSGRAVE, Ph.D. : gudinejzi anager An important vacancy was filled in the col- lege administration last fall when Mr. Harry Chamberlain accepted the position formerly held by Mr. J. Edgar Cole as treasurer and business manager. Mr. Chamberlain comes to Huntington from New York State where he has been supervising principal in New York high schools for the last twenty years. It was Mr. Chamberlain's interest and desire to become affiliated with a college of high Christian stand- ing that prompted him to become interested in our school when he chanced to hear of it from the president of an eastern college. He accepted with pleasure the invitation to become our busi- ness manager and both he and those at H. C. have not regretted his decision. HARRY CHAMBERLAIN, A.M.
