-.il The conversion of a peace-time college into a war-time institution for training the Navy, Marines and civilians is the job President M. E. Sadler has accomplished in the last two years. He has done an excellent job in making the work between the civilians and military personnel so well coordinated. Dr. Sadler, a man of wide experience and receiver of many honors, is now doing one of the biggest jobs of his career. He has received degrees from Altantic Christian College and Vanderbilt and Yale Universities. He won the Henry Allis scholarship award from Yale and was granted a Sterling fellowship, one of the highest academic awards given by Yale. He did educational research in japan for the Rockefeller Institute of Social and Religious Research. Among his many titles were dean of Lynch- burg College in Virginia, director of leadership education of Christian Churches of Virginia, Maryland, Delaware and the District of Columbia and also director of the same program for all Christian Churches in the United States and Canada. Dr. Sadler is away from the campus a great deal, always doing some- thing to improve our war program or help such programs elsewhere. He is looked up to and respected by the students on the campus as a fine leader and competent director of the educational activities of the University. PRESIDENT M E SADLER

I x War came to the T. C. U. campus, of course. just as it came to everything. While there are many perceptible changes around the University the metamorphosis was apparently smooth and practically effortless. The people behind the scenes know this to be false. They know how many traditions were broken, how much money was spent, the amount of time this transformation required, and the endless amount of work involved. They know because they planned these changes and are now carrying them out. These people are the faculty of Texas Christian University. They are the ones who make it possible for us to carry on at all during the war. They are the ones who will lead us back to a normal peace-time college and expansion program after the war. The faculty too has undergone some changes. There are now six deansg some old faculty members have returnedg others are on leaves of absenceg the armed services have taken several. Despite all of this, the faculty is the least changed thing around. The faculty then is the principal link from the past to the future. The following section presents T. C. U. faculty in War Time:
