THE COLLEGE ADMINISTRATION STAFF SCROGGS ALBRIGHT TROUT CRABLI' VVVALTERS BREWER MCCLENDON VIYHITESIDF E C. ALBRIGHT is assistant to the president. The countless minor duties ' of the president's office are effectively handled by Mr. Albright. Applica- tions for the student loan funds, requests of fee waivers, and the securing of speakers for convocations are examples of the duties that fall to the desk of the assistant to the president. Clement E. Trout, head of the journalism department, compiles and super- vises the printing of the catalogs and bulletins issued by the college. The publicity department, whose function it is to supply state papers with news matter regarding the school, is also under his direction. A. L. Crable, as director of correspondence studies, must oversee the thousands of papers connected with the studies of the students who are attending A. and M. by mail. Many students who are unable to attend the regular sessions are able to secure an education by this method. Miss Margaret Walters is the college librarian. The care of thousands of valuable volumes contained in A. and M.'s library, one of the finest in the South- west, is the responsibility entrusted to Miss Walters. Her job requires diligence and careful study. E. E. Brewer, purchasing agent, must have at his command the knowledge of where to buy the supplies required in the operation of the college. Every article used by the school is purchased through his office. Long years of experience have given him wisdom in his work that is a valuable asset to the college. Mr. Brewer sees that there is full value received for each dollar disbursed through his office. The Chief Clerk, T. B. McClendon, carries the key to the monies of the college. The collection of registration fees, the issuing of checks, and all bookkeeping and other records which pertain to college finances are handled through his otlice. In addition to his duties as assistant to the Dean of Engineering, George W. Whiteside has charge of the college power plant, the repairs department, and manifold other duties, Page Z0

DEANS OF MEN AND WOMEN DEAN Ci.,xiuaNc15 H. lX'lcE1,uov OLUTION of all those problems of student life, and especially those concerning men students on the campus, is the task of Clarence H. McElroy, Dean of Men. Through his personal contact with the students, his judg- ment of human nature, and by sympathetic understanding of their problems, the Dean of Hen has helped build and maintain a high standard of student life on' our campus. Dean McElroy serves as chairman of the Discipline Committee, and approval of the rooming houses for students is among the many duties of his office. The high place that Dean McElroy has won in the affections of the students is partially traceable to his belief that college students are capable and should have a large part in governing themselves, and if given this opportunity, need supervision only to keep them from acting too severely in cases requiring discipline. Dean McElroy is himself a graduate of Oklahoma A. and M. and since 1909 has been in the continuous service of the institution. lf it can be said that any one man contains within himself all the aims, ideals, and tradi- tions for which our college stands, then that man is A'Dean Mc. Of a similar function as the ofhce of the Dean of Men, is the office of Dean of VVomen. XYithin her office must be found the correct solution to the many perplexities confronting the A. and Nl. College co-ed. The Dean of XYomen supervises the living conditions of the women students, both in the dormitories on the campus and private residences in the city. She acts as advisor to every Xvoman's organization and is a member of the Discipline Committee. Dances and other amusements must be approved by the Dean of XYomen, and women students must secure her permission to leave town. So, to Dean of XYomen Julia E. Stout, we must give much credit for the high moral standing of A. and Nl, As a counselor and advisor, the Dean of XYomen has helped the co-eds make contacts, seek worthwhile goals, and realize ambitions that are most beneficial to a worthy life.
