St. Clcir, Business Administration, and John Scott Withers, Physics and Mathematics. Two addi- tions in the Assistant Professorial rank were Sidney D. Davis and John C. Godwin. Other effects produced by the activity of restless Change were the promotions of Miss Knepshield and Miss Moore to Associate and Assistant Professorships respectively. Miss Wilson, on her appointment as full-time Director of Student Activities, relinquished her Assistant Professorship in Religious Education. LEONARD DeGARMO NICHOLS WILLIAM FRANCIS POLLARD, JR.

Mrs. Ada W. Bedell felt the touch of the subtle brush of Change near the end of the first semester of the 1947-48 schoolyear; she resigned as the College Avenue House Head of Residence. Mrs. Maude Mick heeded the beckoning finger of Change and accepted the position. Another of the many new faces Change introduced at the beginning of the year was Jean Ann McFadden who took on the task of planning menus in the College dining rooms. Madge Martin greeted Change happily as she surveyed the health office and infirmary the Time-Artist opened for her use in the new Student Center building. Change, who moves ever to the fore and pauses not a second to glance back over his shoulder, tarried not at oil as the 1947-48 schoolyear drew to a close. Our final glimpse of the itinerant artist of the time-river turned our faces, like his, to the future. Change, with a smile of anticipation, was selecting a new brush — a fine brood one — for the busy 1948- 49 schoolyear he saw drifting down the eternal river.
