BOARD OF PUBLICATIONS OFFICERS )avii) Christian President LOYi) H. Geil Secretary Albert A. Applegate FACULTY MEMBERS Lloyd H. Geil Glen O. Stewart Fred Belen David Christian Larry Distel Ronald Garlock Ruth Halladay James Hays Don O ' Hara Jane Shaw During the past year the Board of Publications has undertaken the task of clarifying and revising the existing set-up of the student publications. After exhaustive investigation of the systems in vogue at other colleges and universities, the Board drew up a new constitution which was approved by both the student body and the faculty. The outstanding change involved was the making of student publications heads appointive by the Board rather than elective by the student body as they have been in the past. It is to be hoped that the student publications standard will be materially raised bv this method.

It is to this end that in the fall a charming array of co-eds is turned loose upon the gidlible freshman when Ik- first arrives on the campus; and that the same tactics are employed in disposing of advertising space to hard-headed business men. After the annual ' s publication he considers the year very successful if he leaves no deficit.
