U 'xt il ll! S ll' ll ll fl' ll lu fl l E' l, il ,lc lt ,il tl Rallying around lVlr. Shipps, a staff of enthus- iasts headed by Bill Lacy and lVlidge Alcott, spend ever-active seasons persuading the youth of the nation that Wesleyan is their school. VVith a speculative gleam in the eye and the traditional Wesleyan friendliness radiating from them, they reconnoitre about the country con- tacting and contracting. Representatives often lecture, using slides and movies. 'Feature attrac- tion was smoothie alum, jim Nlcliinnie, now in service as assistant to Gene Tunney. During all of the four seasons they are busy corresponding, informing, answering questions like, How many formals should I bring to school? Or, Does it rain much in Delaware? When spring comes this oHice plays host to numbers of prospective Freshmen, lunching them at Stuyvesant, introducing them to col- legiate eccentricities, piloting them about the campus. Field day for this department is High School clay when prospective recruits llood the campus, and the college salesmen annex hoarse voices and starchecl smiles. Top shot at the left is of Director Rusty Shipps. Below are Midge Alcott, personnel counselor, and Ward Nlctfally, Fentury Club co-chairman. just below are the office scribes, joy Myers and Nlarjorie Christman. The club's co-head is Gladys Breen, shown with Bill Lacy, personnel counselor, in the bottom picture. Chores the office performs on the side are playing mother, adviser and builder-upper. They supervise and advise daughter-organiza- tion Century Club. One and all are servants of the public if the public is eighteen years old, with an aura of ambition and a high school 'kg diploma in the bag. Wi as X, iw M 'N ,ft ai!
