Active in college activities, he is a member of the Advisory Council, the board of athletic control, a member of the war council, advisor for Blue Key and advisor of Sigma Chi. Lately he has taken periodic trips to Bis- marck to act in his capacity on the state board, hearing the cases of enemy aliens. Gardening is his most popular non-academic hobby. XVHEN a student's draft number turns up, he turns instinctively to Dr. Otto Beyers for advice on what his next step should be, for Dr. Beyers is the college's co-ordi- nator for national defense activities and director of personnel. His du- ties were greatly increased with the advent of warg he now must act as liaison officer between the govern- ment and students as well as han- dle his usual work of seeing that students are well qualified for their professions by means of various psychological examinations. An ar- dent lover of classical music, he was one of the instigators of NDAC's Concerts-on-Records. KX? ITH a cheery bedside manner surpassing many doctors, Miss Elizabeth Bertsch is the happy girl whose sole aim in life seems to be buzzing around the health center making sick students feel better.- A graduate of the St. John's hospital school of nursing, she worked in a Hollywood hospital before coming to the campus. Work , Miss Bertsch says, rates as a hobby along with travel. ARTHRITIS sufferers may soon turn to NDAC for relief, for Dr. C. I. Nelson, head of the bacteri- ology department, has done some promising experimentation in that field. Civic minded, Dr. Nelson is a past president of the Fargo public school board and a member of the Fargo public library board. Proud of his flower garden, he helped or- ganize the Fargo Garden society. Besides being professor of bacteri- ology, he also is bacteriologist for the experiment station and teaches night classes for nurses. At one time he was center on the River Falls, Wisconsin, state normal school basketball squad. . .-EEN: 2 .ia-.1 Ee: Dr. W. C.

Helen Stokke Murray Schaetzel MW Liga. 2 , . :Y V ,N ', ,VN J. .. A GROWER of prize peonies, Dr. Elmer C. Darling is the boss in the division of education. His du- ties include the coordination of the departments of education in applied arts and science, education in agri- culture and education in home economics and the supervision of music, physical education for men and wcrnen. To his duties this year was added the supervision of adult extension and night school classes. He is a graduate of NDAC and re- ceived his master's and doctor's de- grees from the University of Iowa. RESTING upon Helen Stokke's shoulders is the task of keeping alive the ties between ND AC 's alumni and their alma mater. Hel- en, a former student herself, is kept busy these days with the job of keeping track of an alumni list that changes addresses every day. Main- tenance of contacts with former stu- dents in the service also adds to her Work as editor of the Alumni Review. Helen's hobby is news. News of what NDAC's alumni do. MRS. ETHEL MCVEETY, college librarian, has pointed a warn- ing finger at more than one over- boisterous student. It was 45 years ago this year that she got her first glimpse of the NDAC campus. She came to the campus March 20, 1897. as stenographer in the experiment station. Three days later she was assigned to the library. Since that time she has attended two summer sessions for librarians at the Uni- versity of Wisconsin. Mrs. McVeety finds that war interferes most in her work by increasing the diffi- culty of securing foreign publica- tions. Travel is her favorite pas- time, and summers often find her at her lake cottage. WITH a Sunday quarterbacks interest in military aviation and a neglected collection of solid model airplanes as sidelines, E. Murray Schaetzel is the man to whom students turn when they are in search of a means of making a livelihood. In his capacity as stu- dent employment manager for the college he has assigned students in need of Work to positions ranging from bartender to coal heaver. ' War has affected conditions in his de- partment also. Intensified curric- ula and the improvement in farm incomes has decreased the demand for part-time employmentg military services have cut the number of permanent positions wanted. b.,...,.... an 4 .. . Dr. Elmer C. Darling Mrs. Ethel McVeety THE Library, one of the oldest buildings on the campus, has served in varying de- grees as a fount of knowledge to thousands of students.
