Harry J. Fields Business Manager Mr. Fields' first year as Business Man- ager at MSM. was in l947. Prior to that time he served lVl.S.M. as an auditor. Since the large enrollment, which began in 1947, the Business Cffice has an addi- tional amount of work to perform. Mr. Fields and his staff have done an excel- lent job during the past two years to cope with this problem in an outstanding manner. A graduate of the University of Mis- souri, Mr. Fields has a B.S. in Business Ad- ministration. During the War he served in the U. S. Navy. Although M.S.lVl.'s bookkeeping system is complicated, Mr. Fields is a very ca- pable man to handle such a task. The business transactions of our outstanding institution are comparable to those of big business since M.S.M.'s recent growth. -1 , . Z rriest P.

An electrical contractor by profession, Mr. Hendrix first served the School of Mines in l943 in the capacity of elec- trician. Even now he, the most adaptable executive in Parker l-lall, is called upon to straighten out and complete the seem- ingly impossible tasks Which often con- front his maintenance crew.
