To newcomers at Wooster, the faculty and administra- Q tion are just that-the faculty and administration. To us, they are definite and interesting personalities, each with a background of lore surprisingly large. Their individual customs leave indelible marks on our f memory. One of these is the picture of Prexy seated at the piano, playing the Wooster Love Song-a pic- ture so effective in its simplicity. THE FACULTY AND A .MINISTRATIG

Prexy kept fifty-one speech appointments last year, speaking to about ten colleges, and at five academic meetings. Arranging Prexy's schedule, typing approximately 4,000 letters annually and recording all board and committee meetings keeps Secretary Kurt Taylor busy. Prexy Upholds Wooster Traditions. While Wooster boys are sniping in Australia, bombing in the Solomons, and gunning in Africa for the preservation of humanity, Prexy in Wooster is fighting his own battle for the maintenance of the liberal arts college and its cultural ideals. The year, l942, time of headaches and heartaches, ended with a partial victory for him. Mainly through his efforts, six hundred navy pre-flight students supplemented the slowly decreasing student body. The inevitable changes that followed were quick and extensive, but the important thing to Prexy and the students is that there is still a Wooster. Now Prexy can continue giving his convocation welcomes, speaking in chapel, attending academic conventions, appeasing the Board of Trustees, spreading the Wooster spirit. More than that, he can continue fighting for the College of 'Wooster in his traditional fashion.
