Lincoln Long. Seated: Mrs. Alva C. Bailey, Miss Lucy L. Notestein, Probert E. Wilson, Charles F. Wis- hart, Carl V. Weyganclt, Mrs. Albert D. Frost. Here Lies the Final Say . . . 20 Doctor, lawyer, merchant, chief -plus a Congressman and a chief justice-all are represented in the Board of Trustees. Not more than tive can be non-residents ot Ohio, and ten of the thirty mem- bers constitute a quorum. Three times a year this committee settles in the green leather chairs of the trustees' room to appraise and amend the current policy oi our college. The members are blamed tor all the blots on Wooster's social and administrative page, but they, coupled with time, eradicate every mistake. They are all-powerful, appointing the president and the professors of the college, and conferring honors and degrees. The board, itself, is responsible only to the Presbyterian Synod of Ohio which owns the school: thus it is the correlating body between the Worldly and the religious.
