Facult tread ACULTY members, like students, felt the heavy of war on teaching schedules and study conditions. It was indicative of the times when 11 faculty wives joined the teaching and business staffs of Bowling Green State University. The total number of new teachers reached 22 as the increase in enrollment made the reorganization of several departments necessary. The demand lessened for some courses but Dr. Prout employed his ingenuity in utilizing these instructors in temporary emergency positions. To freshmen and upperclassmen the friendly informality of the faculty members was encouraging, for their personal interest in each student made concentrated courses of study more enjoyable. Departmental clubs remained an effective portion of the extra-curricular program guided by the faculty members. Earning the students' appreciation by chaperoning campus social functions, the faculty won the gratitude of the entire student body when they joined with the townspeople to secure the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra for a November concert. The little-discussed Committee for Post-War Planning was at work throughout the year coordinating the needs of the departments, arranging programs for building and departmental expansion which is to be inaugurated when s to the campus. peace ag ain return fefgififa grit ,,e, i , j , - -. - . - 1 .

ROBERT BURRY Lmcr. HAROLD BOLD Navy Administration IDDEN beneath a maze of 48-hour liberties, restricted lists, and log books is the efiiciently managed administra- tion of the Bowling Green Naval V-12 Unit. Set apart in one corner of the Administration Building is a suite of offices to which come telegrams, long-distance telephone calls, and official correspondence from the Navy Department and from which issues a barrage of orders, restrictions and an- nouncements which regulate the day-to-day living of the V-12 trainees stationed at Bowling Green. Behind the battery of files which hold the grade reports, sick bay charts, and barracks records of the trainees is the staff which calmly dispenses official information each day and duti- fully attends to the multitude of routine tasks which are so essential to the management of a Navy training unit. Lieut. Comdr. Robert Stokes came to Bowling Green in July of 1944 to take over his duties as commanding officer. A Yale graduate and a former member of the New York Stock Exchange, Lieut. Stokes received his Naval commission in 1942. VVhen Lieut. Comdr. Stokes was transferred to another training station in April, the duties of commanding officer fell to his assistant, Lieut. Harold Bold. Lieut. Bold, a Phi Beta Kappa and botanist from New York, was assisted by Lieut. Cj.g.j Edward Martin. Over in sick bay on the second and third fioor of Johnston Hospital, Lieut fj.g.j Robert Burry was responsible for the treat- ment of the V-125' ailments. He patched them up after accidents on the obstacle course, and he quarantined the Navy boys when they contracted mumps. These officers kept Bowling Green's Naval V-12 Unit run- ning smoothly and helped to make it one of which to be proud. -1. -cg., . illlllu ,
