ninisTRRTion GLENN C. WORST— Mr. Glenn C. Worst was placed, last fall, in the assistant president ' s chair; a fleeting scowl was affixed to his countenance and a permanent courtesy to his mien, and a post-dated receipt for the ten months ' work he was to ac- complish in five left in his hand. No trust was misplaced. When, in pity, they extended the school term, he had al- ready been resting easily for a week. WILLIAM G. WILSON— Mr. Wilson ' s new position. Director of In- struction, so situates him that he renders nothing but good, helpful service from statistics for President Bartky to pro- grams for students. He runs, through a fiendishly accurate filing system, a miniature Pinkerton service for club treas- urers and teachers. All this places him mainly in the sphere of the revered and blessed. EMMA FLEER MULLER — Her office presents an innervating picture of industry. Her files of grade averages, personality evalua- tions, and attendance, are even more accurate than Mr. Wilson ' s and haunt students and graduates applying for positions, in school and out. She is poised and efficient, and winsome. She is Mrs. Emma Fleer Muller, Registrar and Director of Personnel. CLAIRE O ' REILLY— Miss Claire O ' Reilly became, last September, Di- rector of Social Activities. Miss O ' Reilly believes in time, and a half for overtime. That is, she spent five hours in school, and two and one-half more in helping undergraduates initiate their mid-semester dances, in establishing the Tues- day Musicales, and in securing better organization of other school social functions. DAVID NYVALL, JR.— With unfailing regularity the College Choir has assembled for unmistakably progressive sessions. Teacher and students co-operated in the selection of the utmost in artistic composition and Mr. Nyvall ' s personality and in- creasing knowledge of the music provided all necessary impetus. So, motivating the Green Lyres and Madrigal Singers, he has produced three enthusiastic, splendid choral groups.

Dr. Kopel, with Dr. DeBoer, will be superintending a study of the problems of underpriv- ileged children by a group of C. G. practice students. This enterprise marks one phase of the preparation of masters ' theses and the first student con- ducted experiment of any magnitude. This division ' s magnum opus is the freshman course. Home and Com- munity. Nearly the entire staff cooperated in the experiment whose product was, according to one woman student, more an experience than a course. Students have given It credit for bringing recognition to and introducing them to community leaders, and for developing a consciousness of the whole child. Everyone but Dr. Branom, Mrs. Schacht, and Mr. Swear- ingen are newly minted mem- bers. It is from among these recent appointees that the ad- ministrators of the Community course were chosen, except for Mrs. Schacht, who is also on the staff.
