lHl IllHN lll lllN DR. D. O. COWGILL One of the busiest men on the campus, Dr. Cowgill, professor of sociology, is also one of the best loved of all the faculty members. You might find him ,on an S. C. A. retreat, drinking coffee at the Panther lnn, or participating in a bull session with the boys on subjects ranging from religion to family life. He received his Ph. D. last year and achieved nation wide recognition with his dissertation on life in motor car trailers. This is his first year as Dean of lvlen and most of us agree that he is a regular fellow and would feel perfectly free to speak with him regarding any of our personal problems whether they concerned our grades or our college romance.

lHl llllll ni ill snlnui DR. G. H. BENTON The freshmen met him for the first time when they trouped into his office on registration day to have him sign those little white cards lrememberi. And even after he had looked them over carefully and had signed hundreds of them he still had a friendly smile and a personal vvord to each of us. And maybe you've had him for European or Ameri- can History or some of his more advanced courses. lf you have, you know him as one of the most scholarly men on the campus. His subtle sense of humor and sometimes satirical class lectures dis- tinguish him as an outstanding personality that we will remember long after we have le-ft Drury.

lllllllllllll MRS. l-IAECE To the Wallace Hall house mother we dedicate this book. Good natured, friendly, extremely good looking, understanding, she has performed her duties on Drury Campus in an unheralded manner for six years. l-ler word is the word of authority and, though seldom used, is respected by both the men and the women. A Every coed is very likely, at some time or another, to carry her problems to Mrs. l-laege for sympathetic understanding and sound motherly advice. Many of the young men are apt to be heard asking Mrs. l-laege's counsel about whom they should ask to their formal. She's the campus mother and it is in sincere appreciation for what she has done for each one of us and for Drury especially that we dedicate this book to her.
