Greeting with a warm smile all who visit her office on the second floor of McGuffey Hall, Dean Margaret Deppen characterizes the friendliness of the Ohio University administration. Despite her full schedule of business and social activities, Miss Deppen welcomes any opportunity to become acquainted with the students, whether it be at Women ' s League functions, dinner in the girls ' dorms, or a casual visit in her office. In Miss Deppen may be found a sympathetic friend to whom students can bring their problems. Naturally, Miss Deppen ' s primary in- terests center around the college and its students. But she also enjoys golf on the new OU course, as well as reading or play- ing br idge. Erma I. Anderson Assistant Dean of Women

VND PLAYTIME . . Dying-summer hot, early-autumn days when the streets and walks are boiling over with flailing limbs of many persons, and school begins again to rush along the hurdled path to June. Freshman Week takes a tentative, apprehensive step and crescendos toward the Registration Hop when the dancers meet each other for the first time. Couples wade hand-in-hand through puddles of fallen, pastel leaves, smiling. The whole world shouts al the parade of flowered floats. The parties and then the next day . . . oh, well. Concerts, shows, sesquicentennial celebrations; and then it is Thanks- giving, and thanks are given. The season slips into an ermine jerkin, and the Green is decorated as if it were a large Christmas tree. Christmas, New Year ' s Eve. Back to the books with memories of cherry-sparkled yule logs. Exams . . . books are bought and sold because another semester is here. A torch flaming against a grey weather and Greek Week livens things up again. Nature yawns and wakes with a luxuriant gesture. And so does the J- Prom spirit. The lake becomes popular again. Studying and strolling on the green, down at the field and across the river. Sure, Spring. It is more difficult to cram for exams this time, but it must be done. There is a lot of rain now. Violets among the Hocking are drowned. June announces heated approach of summer, bringing with it gradua- tion among other things . . . and the Seniors stroll into the sunrise. 23
