Mr. Werner is especially wel ' fitted to inaugurate a period of expansion in equipment and enrollment. Equally happy was the selection of the other new members of the faculty. Our versatile registrar, Mr. G. D. Peavy, handles skillfully both athletcis and social problems. Under the direction of Coach Ed Adams and Miss Frieda Hutchinson, the physical education department is progressing. Mr. Herbert F. Langdon is increasing the popu- larity of the courses in engineering. To the department of commerce, already one of the largest in the college, Mr. Claude Addison ' s a valuable addition. As chairman of the division of science and mathematics, Mr. John B. Lemos continues his invaluable services in teaching and admin- istration. With him are associated Miss Jean McKay in biological sciences, Mr. J. R. Clarke in chemistry, and Mr. Langdon and Mr. Earl Sauble in mathematics. The dean of women. Miss Faith Eraser, is doing notable work in her public speaking classes, especially the verse choir organized this year.

Murray, Mr. Harry Noland, Mr. Bayard Young, and Mr. Everett L. Knowlton, and Dr. R. D Case, Secretary. It was due to the farsightedness of these men that the Salinas Junior College is now enjoying its new home. The individual members of this Board are to be commended for the interest which they have shown in our Junior College, as well as for the effort which they have put forth, and for the success which they had in obtaining the cooperation of the community and of the state authorities all of which have made the new up-to-date Junior College possible. Not only have the Board members given us a new Junior College building, but they have been liberal in equipping the building with the most modern of equip- ment. For this the students and faculty of the Salinas Junior College are very grateful. R. J. Werner. R. |. Werner, . C. Pn ' Mj,;,

r }) B U I T y ■ARL SAUBLH, Dai,i „t AI » Mr. John Murrin has the responsible position of mentor to the prospective Journalists try- ing out their talents on La Kiuifii and Tbc daiiery. This year we point with special pride to our achievements in art and music ' . Mr. Leo Ainyx participated in the promotion of the first art exhibits held in Salinas. Our first annual concert and first opera, Pinafore, ' brought great honor to Mr. Lorel McCann and Miss Gertrude Lowe. The other members of the faculty can report substantial progress in their respect- ive fields. No doubt Mr. Legro Pressley stili dreams of a new agricultural building, and Mrs. Hope Baxter looks forward to home economics unit on the college campus, bui. both are gratified by the steady growth of their departments. Although Miss Luella Hall anticipates with pleasure an instructor in German, more space for her social science library, and enlargement of the social science courses in number and enrollment, she is not displeased with year ' s results. Miss Ruth Rothrock, likewise, welcomes the problems inherent in the rapid expansion of the com- merce department. Being dauntlessly optim- istic, Mr. Louis Eris challenges all obstacles to bigger and better French and Spanish classes, with psychology as a recreation. Rothrock McCann Langdon Baxter Q
