OBLLALYLQAA. cvvlfi YICLQQTL V . .fee H. cVVlonnLA QUR college is fortunate in having as its Business Manager a man with the experience and ability as found in the person of Mr. Lee H, Morris. As the administrator of the college budget, he must know at all times how the finances of the college agree with the state budget. He must be able to afford, upon a few minutes' notice, accurate information to any department the amount expended for such department in any given period. As purchasing agent for the college, Mr. Morris has made a reputation reaching far beyond the borders of our State. His ideas and theories of educational buying attracted the attention of the leaders in that field to the point that in 1934 he was chosen to serve as president of the National Association of Educational Buyers. He originated and built a purchasing system and procedure for our college such as is now required by various rating agencies. From his purchase records, he can, within a few minutes, tell exactly how much the college owes in outstanding obligations. Because of his geniality and fair and ethical dealing, he has earned the funiversal respect and good will of those from whom we buy. Having direct charge of the physical plant, Mr. Morris has organized the various service agencies of the college into a coordinated unit to the end that the functions and purposes of the institution best be served. 17
