', 9, .. J., ZX :F Y .gif iff 2x 'Z f ' iw, i . .v ' .c Embodiment of ultimate responsibility for any college is its President, who is the link be- tween administration of campus, ideals, and outside persons and organizations. Working with trustees, faculty committees, administra- tion officers, student representatives, friends of the college, he must at all times serve as stabil- izing guide for a cause in which he believes implicitly. As President of Pomona, Charles K. Edmunds has multitudinous duties which this year carried him to the East Coast and back again twice, is ably assisted by a score of assistants and administrators. As Counsellor of School Relations and Director of Admissions, Howard H. Pattee advises prospective students, administers the entrance examinations and re- quirements. Dean of the College is William E. Nicholl, coordinator of college administrators and students, important member of Life com- mittee. Dean of Women is charming Iessie Gibson, who with her competent assistant Ellen Bowers guides and furthers relations between women, faculty, administrators and college lite. Working together in Sumner Hall, these people and their assistants act along the prescribed lines of administrators, but they are more than that- ----i they are the guiding force which inte- grates and makes into practical experience the ideals of a college. Characteristic pictures show President Edmunds at work, banquet, convocation, walking across the quad to his office.
