WARD G. RIDDLE, Vice-President and Treasurer, started his career at I.U. in August of 1923 when he returned a few years after his graduation, to manage the Rook- store. In 1932, in addition to this duty, he was appointed director of the newly com- pleted Union Ruilding. In 1936, he went to the Office of Comptroller. In August of 1942, after nineteen years of faithful service, he became Vice-President and Treasurer of I.U. During enrollment, students see the name of Ward G. Riddle on their cards. That name takes on significance as they learn of Mr. Riddle ' s exhausting efforts in behalf of his Alma Mater, Indiana University. HERMAN T. RRISCOE, Vice-President and Dean of Faculties, is not often seen or heard by I.U. students, but his valuahle presence is felt by them. In his executive position at the head of the academic branch of the Univer- sity, Mr. Rriscoe patiently and wisely irons out problems of the different schools, co- ordinates the efforts of all deans, and formu- lates policies of scholastic diet. Quiet efficiency characterized his work as Instruc- tor in Chemistry, as Chairman of the Chemistry Department, and as Acting Dean of the School of Business. And his mastery of personnel administration was put to good use by the War Manpower Commission in Washington, D.C.
