XXtX,x i THE ADMINISTRATION ,When Asbury College first came into existence, it boasted eight faculty members and two students. The faculty tended the meadows and kept the live- stock from wandering too freely over the campus. For these extra tasks they were given the hay which grew on the campus in order 'that they might keep some livestock of their own. However, the school in- creased by leaps and bounds, and in l862 co-educa- tion was granted by a liberal faculty and adminis- tration in spite of the sharp protest of a student . petition. Today DePauw boasts of a faculty and ad- ministration of over a hundred members varying Widely in interests and personalities. Even when our college days are a thing of the past, there are certain little memories that we shall always cherish: Tilden shaking his glasses with a Now, when l was in the legislature or a nod of the head followed by Probablah . . litters Iome with chalk on his coat sleeve . .

i l L '-,.f PRESIDENT WILDMAN Dr. Clyde E. Wildman, President ot DePauw, is one of the tinest exernplificatoins of the true DePauw spirit. He literally lives and breathes DePauw in his numerous and extensive tours ot the country. He is the tinest interpreter ot DePauw tradition we have. Although he is constantly traveling and speaking, he has shown his remarkable ability time after time to understand and appreciate any situation. Perhaps it is the bright twinkle in his eye and knowing smile as he views a funny situation or recalls the days when he was a student in DePauw. Dr. Wildman has received the lollowing degrees: AB., Ph.D., S.T.B., and Ll..D., and still he remains to us just a grown-up DePauw student whom recently at the sophomore Snow Ball we christened King Curly, which title is his students' way ot paying a tribute to a mon they honor and admire. 15
