Prout resigned his duties as superintendent of the il f Sandusky schools to become president of Bowling Green State Univer- l sity. During these three years the campus has seen many innovations, l the results of his energetic ambition. With their many interests at heart, he has proved himself a friend of the students. He eagerly and sympathetically hears the problems of the lowliest nobody to the mightiest somebody. ln a youthful institution such as this, we, the l students, realize the importance of this democratic interest. i l Prexy signs old friend, Coach Whittaker, toa long term contract . ..

This year the Bureau has had a fine opportunity to function extensively because of vacancies made by men joining the armed forces. Probably the greatest need has been for teachers in the elementary, science, mathematics, and industrial arts fields. Dr. Walter A. Zaugg heads the Bureau.
