DEAN DALE Dean Dale is the friendly embodiment of the Howard spirit. His office is the meeting place of large groups of students who gather to absorb his wit and understanding, and his classes are famous, or should we say notorious, for the frec- dom of discussion he allows. His very real inter- est in students led to his appointment as Dean of Men and there is no man on the campus bettcr fitted for this post. 'ww P'!Q' DEAN UBE CHAIN Howard students are proud of our open-minded and open-hearted Mrs. Obenchain. prominent in civic and educational circles. Especially lucky are Women students who claim her attention as advisor for small, yet terrifying problems of the moment. And versed as she is in more important problems of the world, she proves her stature by her willingness to lend a sympathetic ear or to render personal assistance. Mrs. Obenchain is a charming person to know. In short, she is the type of woman college girls dream of becoming.

UH. REID ,lice-lqreaialenf Dr. A. Hamilton Reid, vice-president, has led Howard College through difficult days of financial reverses. His tireless efforts in regard to the Centennial For- ward Program have supplied the college with a sizeable fund for building and improvements after the war. Last year Dr. Reid left Howard to accept the position of President of the Executive Committee of the Alabama Baptists. It was a loss which we felt deeply, but we wish him every success in his new office. MHS.
