II MISS MARIA M. ROBERTS GEORGE V. GODFREY » The Student Loan Fund, ad- ministered by Miss Maria M. Roberts, has proved to be a life- saver to many students, who without financial assistance would be unable to remain in college. The total assets of the loan fund available to senior col- lege and graduate students arc now over $100,000. Miss Roberts believes that today the needy student learns to organize his time that he may obtian exactly what he wants from college. As chairman of the Y.W.C.A. Ad- visory Board, Miss Roberts aids student welfare. The position of Director of Ag- ricultural Relations at Iowa State College, filled by George W. Godfrey, is unique. The purpose of his office is to coordinate the various agricultural activities of the college and form closer rela- tionship with the agricultural interests of the state. Mr. God- frey attends farm meetings in dif- ferent communities and manages the college ' s 18 farms. His hobby doesn ' t take him far from his work as he is an expert gardener. Librarian C. H. Brown is a man whose hobby is his work. His seventeen years here have seen the number of books in the library triple to the present 300,- 000 volumes. The attendance, on the average day, of Iowa State College Library is 3,000 students. Further increase in library use is prevented by lack of space. His greatest compliment is received when university presidents ask, How do you get so many stu- dents to come to the library? The main purposes of the Stu- dent Health Service under Dr. J. G. Grant are to give medical attention to the students and to impress upon them the import- ance of keeping physically fit. The success of his program is seen in the fact that 2,200 stu- dents received cold treatments last year and that a constantly higher percentage are seeking treatment for minor ailments. Dr. Grant likes to read fiction and keeps fit by playing golf. dfUi ij ttalL LCH CHARLES H. BROWN DR. D. G. GRANT Page p
