COLLEGE ADMINISTRATION The air is ominous ; an important decision is to be handed down ; the Administration of Manchester Col- lege is at work. Behind closed doors these mem- bers of the faculty formulate matters of school policy, indicate the direc- tion of student life on the campus, coordinate college activities. New- members, President Schwalm and Dr. Morris, took their places with Professor Kintner, Dr. Cordier, Dean Holl, and Professor L. D. Ikenberry this year. With the spring term came an ac- celerated program for the college and new problems for the Adminis- tration. Revision of the college pro- gram to meet new demands is no eas} ' job, but through the Adminis- tration ' s careful planning a class schedule was worked out that af- forded time for extra classes and yet recreation hours, too. Primarily in- terested in the welfare of the stu- dents, the Administration is ever mindful of inno ations and changes that make for an enterprising and progressive school. •:. .- f -•::r3 i ( O Mk ( ' • c 0 '

PRESIDENT DR. V. F. SCHWALM Our new president. DR. OTHO WINGER President Emeritus President Schwalm quickly, quietly, and efficient ly took on the duties of college president, making the transition a pleas- ant experience for faculty and students alike. AVe miss his Tuesday morn- ing chapel talks, his broad brimmed hats, his resonant voice. But these — the physical things — we can afford to miss, for we know we have his inter- est, his influence, his spirit al- ways here at Manchester Col- lege — the shadow of a great man, of Otho Winger. 26

RELIGION L. W. SHULTZ A.M.. Librarian, Professor of Religious Education. R. H. MILLER A.M., B.D., D.D., Professor of Religion and Philosoph} ' . No Other creature on God ' s green earth can rise so high or sink so low as a woman, announces Dr. R. H. Miller during one of his black board illustrated lectures. His students conscientiously learn the kings of Judea and Israel, paraphrase Paul ' s letters, and expound on philosophi- cal theory ; yet the outstanding memory of the vast number of stu- dents who year after year enroll in the Bible and philosophy classes is not the chronological order of the judges but the sane, workable philosophy of life presented by Dr. Miller. A garden and a sense of humor to keep his perspective, equal ease in the pulpit or in the classroom, an early riser — R. H. Professor L. A ' . Shultz buys the liooks and takes the relief money in the back office of the librar}-. Occa- sionall} ' , though, he lays aside his duties as chief librarian and jour- neys up the library steps to his classes in sacred art and sacred mu- sic. Religious fine art takes on a new meaning as Prof holds forth. Church historian, admirer of Kagawa, avid reader — Prof. Shultz. 28
