THE LIEUTENANTS In the most controversial job on campus from the student ' s viewpoint, Dean of Men Maurel Hunkins is referred to in the third person simply as The Dean. A master of the pointed, baring question, The Dean presided over Campus Affairs Committee and acted as a faculty guiding participant in the Student Court, besides handling his more personal office duties. The ex-tennis star and violinist drives a hard bargain, but men he rescued from the city jail and organizations whose prob- lems he lightened attest to his fairness. Joe Dando Assistant Dean Cheerful and obliging, Dean of Women Margaret Deppen contrasts Dean Hunkins ' severity. Like him, she questions. In indi- vidual conferences, in committee meetings, or in CAC conclaves, her verbal probings usually regard her charges, the OU coeds, and their privileges. Working mainly to counsel the coed and to insure her a fair shake, Miss Deppen temporarily took over the dean of men ' s duties in March when he became ill. In some ways, her views are old-fashioned. She refuses to buy an automobile because of the dangers on the high- ways. Her friendliness is old-fashioned, too, but it compliments her progressive program. Erma I. Anderson Assistant Dean

' A HAPPY COMBINATION ' When John C. Baker became the fourteenth president of Ohio University, the Alumni Bulletin of the Harvard Business School described him as a happy combination of a hard head and a warm heart. The conservative Ivy League administrator had to call on both these attributed facilities in his first days in Athens. He assumed the presidency just three months and one day before the end of World War II, and he had to con- sider both his 1 37 1 students and the nation ' s nine million soldiers, sailors, and marines in making necessarily abrupt decisions. There was not much time for long-range planning in those first three months, but in the optimistic years just after the war, while he successfully expanded facilities for an influx of war-weary, knowledge-starved veterans, the man from Harvard initiated building and educa- tional changes and improvements that are only today nearing completion. The happy combination in the man who was, when he became president, a trustee of Juniata College and of the Boston School of Occupational Therapy, a director of the National Blank Book Co., and president of Avon Home, has wrought dividends for OU students. In 1955, the combination took on a wider scope, when Dr. Baker became U. S. Representative to UNESCO. 17
