VICE-PRESIDENT Archibald Macintosh Mac will never need introduction to any group of Haverfordians. Cast in the unhappy- role of being responsible for all of us being here in the first place, he is then stuck with the job of making sure we don ' t make him look bad. But most important in our minds, he always has time for a couple of words and a grin, behind which lies the knowledge that he is always available when help is needed. DEAN Gilbert T. Hoag Somehow managing to be available at all times, the Dean combines a deep love for Haverford with a realistic view of its problems. Although his job has many unpleasant aspects to it, his friendly and understanding guidance is the reason for the academic success of unknowable numbers of students. We have been lucky to have a man of his caliber in his key position, and we will not forget the value of his practical approach to our misdemeanors any sooner than he would dissociate socialism from intermediate composition.

PRESIDENT Gilbert Fowler White The Class of 1951 has watched a fledgling college president achieve maturity in administering Haverford. The Gilbert White we saw as freshmen had experienced only a sampling of the problems to come in his past five years here. These last four years have made manifest an air of confidence in Gilbert White, echoed daily by the faith of the college community in him, his tact and judgment, as it relies on his solving its countless problems. Mr. White has retained through the fire of functional formalism an informality that on Campus Day made a dungaree-clad college president no more inappropriate than a sweating junior. The truly personal relationship that Gilbert White has built up with the members of the college community, his willingness to help individuals, and his insight into what is best for Haverford, have made this man a vital factor in moving Haverford smoothly toward its goal in education.

VICE-PRESIDENT Lester Haworth Haverford owes much to Lester Haworth for his effective handling of the fund drive. The biggest and most amtitious campaign in Haverford history and one destined to help the College over the difficult times to come was a success due in a large measure to the efforts of Haworth and his assistants. Another of his contributions was a guiding hand behind the formation of the much-needed press club. COMPTROLLER Aldo Caselli The proprietor of Haverford College. Every- thing depends on his approval, and luckily so for the continued financial success of the Col- lege. Voluntarily withdrawing a little from the everyday life of the College, Aldo nevertheless will do anything for you within the bounds of good business with a sincere interest in your particular problems. If you really want to be his pal, just ask him if he actually got Tos- canini ' s autograph, or if Club 50 isn ' t a white elephant after all.
