Every campus has some noteworthy person to whom everyone instinctively turns for guidance. This personality is one who sets the pace for College Activities and is an example to others in the college world. On Slippery Rock’s campus Dr. John A. Entz, the president of our college, is such a leader. Dr. Entz has prepared himself well for his position in education. After attending school at Lock Haven and Albright Colleges (incidentally, he captained the football eleven there) he taught for several years in preparation for later work in the Coudersport schools and became President of California State Normal School. We who are Juniors remember him as teacher, Dean of Men, and President; for he has acted in three capacities since our arrival at Slippery Rock. He has been a faculty member for fourteen years, part of which time he served as Dean of Instruction. Surely such a variety of positions has made him well qualified to direct Slippery Rock, and we gratefully acknowledge his splendid leadership. Now we arc at war—the burden is much greater for our president, yet his calm reassurance has proved to us that, no matter how great the rationing or the loss of male students, Slippery Rock College will carry through to the end with a great leader.

He is well known as instructor, administrator, and sponsor for Kappa Delta Pi and Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship. We discovered that his professional work was his avocation as well as his vocation. Most of his leisure time is spent in professional activities. He reads voluminously, and has written articles for School and Society, Education, Calvin Fcrum, and the Educational Forum, the national magazine published by Kappa Delta Pi. Although much of his time is spent in study. Dr. Jaarsma is fond of gardening and has flower and vegetable plots near his home on Kicstcr Road. MtiA fielle Jlolcuuay becut li otHert Ably and graciously presiding over North Hall and serving as Dean of Women at Slippery Rock is Miss Belle Holaway. She is very active in campus affairs and is an advisor to the Y. W. C. A. and the North Hall Dormitory Council. Guidance, directing social affairs, and administrative work keep Miss Holaway very busy, but she finds time to do voluminous reading and is well-informed on current problems. Her leisure time is spent in activities such as swimming, hiking, and bridge. Riding is one of her chief pleasures during vacation periods, which usually include a trip through several of the United States. Her tastefully furnished apartment reflects her versatile and cosmopolitan personality. jjameA 7 Pole ubeatt o Me All Slippery Rock students know our jolly Dean of Men, Mr. Pole, and the fine work he has done in establishing better relationships among the men on our campus. To supplement his work in college English classes and in the high school, he has several interesting hobbies. Did you know that he is very fond of collecting and making maps—any kind of map, but particularly those of historical interest. You may have seen him participating in such athletic activities as tennis, bicycling, and hiking. Pool is one of his favorite means of recreation, along with ''tinkering” with clocks and radio. Other interests are the Press Club and Sigma Tau Delta. Scvrntmi
