From one position to another Moves within Valley's administration re- semble a life-size chess game. In chess, when an important player is lost, he is replaced by another piece, who serves in an exact or similar capacity. So it is at Valley where the adminis- tration moves may have a far reaching effect. Because any move affects the lives of literally thousands, each is carefully planned. To insure the move is correct, a test is given to select the most valuable player. Last summer many of Valley's administra- tors were wanted to serve in their present positions. Some of the moves were planned as replacements for instructors or administrators on sabbaticals, or other leaves. The biggest change came when Valley Col- lege president, William J. McNelis, left Valley for a year's sabbatical in Europe. This move was covered by Dr. Marie Y. Martin of Los Angeles City College. Dr. Martin from the very start won the hearts of the students with her warm smile and sincere personal interest in the school's students and activities. When Dr. Martin left Valley to assume the presidency of Los Angeles Metropolitan College of Business in November, William N. Kepley Jr. moved into position as Valley's president. William E. Lewis was moved in on the administrative chessboard as dean of student activities after Mrs. Nena Boyer retired in .Tune of '62 Dr. Helena Hilleary moved into the position of assistant dean of student activities, a place formerly occupied by James N. Cox. Dr. Hil- leary's duties are to assist Dean Lewis in student activities. As dean and assistant dean of student activi- ties, Lewis and Dr. Hilleary hold jobs that are directly tied to the running of student govern- ment and are charged with bettering the collec- tive student body socially and scholastically. Returning from a year's sabbatical, Robert N. Cole was moved into place to resume his duties as dean of special services. Kermit Dale, who held Dean Cole's position while Cole was on sabbatical, moved to the position of assistant dean of instruction. Valleyls chess game assures the students that when an administration opening occurs, the best qualified person can be assigned to the position and that Valley will never face a stalemate in the movement of top talent, edu- cational and administrative ability.
