Taking the whole burden of the administration of Park College is the Board of Trustees. This is the group most directly concerned and responsible for the way in which Park is governed. And it is the group in whose hands Park ' s future rests. The Board of Trustees, chaired by Mr. Elmer H. Norrington, have had as their most difficult task that of finding a new president. This was achieved this spring with the announcement that Dr, Donald Mackenzie would fill that position. The Board is made up of men of various pro¬ fessions, and includes a great number of Parkites. These men hold high positions in fields of industry, medicine, theology, and business. Elmer H. Norrington, President of the Board

Built from nickels contributed by Sunday School children, Nickel houses the honor dorm open to sophomores, juniors, and seniors. It was built in 1895 and is one of Park ' s oldest structures. Woodward Dormitory was built in 1908 in memory of Rev. George S, Woodward and of the stones from Old Number 1, the hotel in which Park found its beginning. Today it holds upperclassmen and a few hardy freshmen, including a group called, naturally enough, the Hermits. Houseparents there are Mr. and Mrs. Lake.

The President of Park College has a tremendous job and with that a tremendous responsibility. It is his chief duty to act as a ’’go-between for the Board of Trustees and the college as a whole. He presents to the Board the requests and wishes of the staff and student body, and in return, carries out the decisions of the Board in these matters. This is the second year Park has been without a full president. Until one could be found, the duties of the office were assumed by Mr. H. Milton Mohler. The college owes Mr. Mohler a debt of gratitude in the sacrifice he has made to fill this vital part. At the right, President Mohler re¬ ceives a contribution from Mr. T. L. Paulson of the Folger Coffee Com¬ pany, with Mr. Edwards looking on. Mrs. Hasel R. Bellamy, Secretary to the President H. Milton Mohler, Acting President of Park College
