PAUL GREEN Assistant Secretary Mr. David Armbruster, physical director of the association, and a student at the college, possesses the qualities so essential to a man in his position. He has a thorough knowledge of his work in addition to ni3 very pleasing personality, and controls the men as they come to him in the gymnasium in a manner that leaves no doubt as to his ability. Before coming to Mt. Pleasant he served two years as assistant physical director in the Y. M. C. A. at Sioux City, and has had two summers’ work at the Y. M. C. A. College Summer School at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. Two college classes meet three times a week, and a leader’s course is offered to college men under the regular tuition fee. Two other college men complete the administrative force of the Association—Mr. Paul Green, a student in the Academy, and Mr. Archie Marsh, a Junior in the college. Both of these men show marked talent for the work of the Y. M. C. A., and although this is only their beginning in Association work, both represent the type of leaders demanded of a challenged Christianity. The building contains twenty rooms which arc available to college men, and many take advantage of them and secure pleasant surroundings and good Christian fellowship. In addition to the gymnasium the building has a splendid swimming pool, bowling alleys, game room and an attractive reading room. A spirit of good fellowship pervades the whole building, and every Wesleyan man is invited to take advantage of its privileges. A nominal fee is charged for the college year. ARCHIE MARSH Assistant Secretary

e Cttp MR. J. E. SOUTHERLAND General Secretary The Young Men’s Christian Association of Mt. Pleasant plays an important role in the Christian life and influence at Wesleyan. Its place has become so real and vital that it is considered an integral part of the college, and its beautiful building regarded as one of the college structures. The board of directors have always considered the college when they have selected administrative officers. As a result the list of men who have acted as secretaries and physical directors presents a string of men who possess the type of leadership so essential in work with college students. Mac-Neill, Starr, Davis, Anderson and others will always be remembered by the men who knew them as men of sterling Christian qualities. Among the physical directors might be mentioned Westfall, Johnson, Caris and Slayton, all men who were well fitted for their positions and in addition possessed characters which made their work with college men peculiarly effective. Several men who are members of the college board of trustees are also members of the Y. M. C. A. board of directors, and in this way the two organizations are held firmly together in their work for Christ at Mt. Pleasant. The man who at the present time is at the helm of the city Association is a worthy successor to the men who have been mentioned before. Mr. Sutherland took up the work as secretary on the local field last September, and his genial manner at once won him a place in the hearts of the men and boys of the city. A young man himself, he appreciates the trials that beset the path of the new student at college, and is a distinct asset to the Christian life of Wesleyan. DAVID ARMBRUSTER Physical Director
