Business Monoger With this year's enrollment larger than any in the past, all departments have suffered many headaches. Under the able direction of E. W. Martin, treasurer, the business office has man- aged to solve all its problems and to render many helpful services to the Stll- dents. In addition to his many duties such as taking care of endowments, invest- ments, physical properties, the disburs- ing of funds, and the contracting for materials and utilities he has found time to be a friend and advisor to the stu- dents. His willingness to help anyone needing help has made him more than treasurer of the College. Mr. Martin is thoroughly familiar with all departments of the College and is a leader in church and civic activities in Conway. His quick mind and keen intellect have gained him a state-wide reputation as a business man and friend. Vice-President One of the best liked professors on the campus is Dr. Robert L. Campbell, Vice-President of the College and head of the English Department. He is a friendly, conscientious advisor of stu- dents in personal problems as well as scholastic affairs. Dr. Campbell is surpassed by few in his knowledge of English Literature and his ability to impart this knowledge to students. His administrative work is accomplished efficiently and with little show. His understanding of the job to be done, and his willingness to do it mark him as a high light in the college field. He takes all occurrances in his stride, disposing of his problems in an efficient, business-like manner. Dr. Campbell might well be regard- ed as a live model of the type of person that is ideal of Hendrix College and that for which it stands. Page 11

Page 10 Deon Of The College After 40 years on the Campus, Dr. Thomas Starling Staples is still one of the most admired and respected mem- bers of the faculty. He is a leader of men, a scholar, a historian, an advisor, and above all a good friend. To Dr. Staples as Dean of the Col- lege and head of the History Depart- ment, students turn for down to earth knowledge and advice. With his ready smile and quick wit he makes the stu- dent meetings a pleasure for both the leader and the follower. For faculty and students alike, his is the conservative viewpoint, the intu- itive sense of human nature, and the fund of knowledge from previous exper- ience that keeps smooth the road to higher education. The intellect and character of Dean Staples has given him' the distinction of a leader who has earned his high place. Deon Of Women In her two years as dean of women, Miss Marie Williams has constantly en- deavored to reach her avowed goal of making each residence hall as much like home as possible. Through her efforts, two of the largest enrollments in the history of Hendrix have been provided with well rounded schedules of social activities. Even though she has many routine tasks, such as keeping the college social calendar, arranging permission and special privileges for the women stu- dents, and many others, Miss Williams has always kept her door open to both men and women students. She takes an interest in students individually and is a wise and friendly counselor and her advice is sought by many. Miss Wfilliams will long be remem- bered by Hendrix as a person who knows how and when to do the things that must be done.
