While most of your interests were centered around the College and its activities, you discovered that it was nearly the opposite for Max W. Milbourn, direc- tor of public service. He kept the various College publics uppermost in his mind. Buzz sessions quite often took care of your col- legiate problems, but there were times when even these wouldn ' t help.

Baehr, librarian, and his staff were busy with the opening of the new stacks early in the year. A new K-Stater this year was E. M. Gerritz, regis- trar, who enrolled other new K-Staters. You thought he had his hands quite full keeping track of who were coming here from where next year and their ap- plications.

As assistant dean of students, he also participated on various student committees in an advisory capacity. Lining up the big-name dance bands was credited to him, too.

Assisting the dean of students is Philip H. Sorensen ' s job. All women students receive advice and supen-ision in dorm and campus activities from Helen Moore, K-State ' s dean of women.
