TI-I DEAN OF MEN DABNEY S. LANcAsTEn. In the remarkably short time of seven years, Dean Lancaster has become an in- stitution on the campus. He is the friend and coun- sellor of every man student in the University. He is ad- mired and respected for his sincerity, his frankness, and his fine upright manhood. In addition to his service as Dean of Men to the students, he has rendered invaluable assistance to Dr. Denny in performing administrative functions at the University. E ADMINIST MR. SHALER C. HOUSER. The position of treasurer of the University of Alabama is most adequately filled by Prof. Shaler C. Houser. It is he who has so competently and efficiently helped to administer the University's finances during its recent financial difficulties. Besides handling this job so well, he has served as a member of the faculty and as a member of the committee on athletics. ' Mn. ROBISON Buowrv. Another man indispensable to the financial administration is Mr. Brown, who as Land Commissioner, is in charge of all the Universityls real estate property. Mr. Brown also serves as Secretary to ' DR. JOHN MCCLURE. Ample evidence of Dr. John McClure's fine work as Director of the Summer School was afforded last summer when the enrollment for the first session soared to a record height of almost two thousand, nearly half the regular session enrollment. Dr. McLure's untiring efforts are responsible for this splen- did development of this part of the University in :1 short thirty-two years. ' DR. R. E. TIDWELL. The importance of the Exten- sion Division of the University is a tribute to Dr. Tidwell's excellent managership as director of it during the few years it has been established here. Extension is one of the most modern ideas in education. Through it the University has been enabled to offer classes to many people all over the state who are unable to come to attend RA the Board of Trustees. MR. SHALER C.
