Three times during his term of office, Presi- dent Iohn Kennedy called on I. Keith Mann to serve on three-man Presidential Emergency Boards to investigate labor disputes affecting the national interest: in 1961 it was a contro- versy involving the Airline Pilots' Association, the Flight Engineers' International Association, and the nation's airlines, in 1962 it was auto- mation litigation between the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks and the Southern Pacific Rail- road, in 1963 the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and the nationis railways. Following the last Emergency Board, I. Philip Randolph, President of the Brotherhood, and representa- tives of the railroads spoke to Dean Mann's La- bor Law class about the dispute and the Board recommended solution. Besides his duties as professor of law, Mr. Mann serves as associate dean of the law school with primary responsibility for implementing faculty decisions in the area of academic affairs. This year he is also Chairman of the Presiden- tial Committee on Stanford Athletics. Anyone having dealings with Dean Mann will usually find this gentle and marvelously tactful man in his office surrounded by books and huge stacks of papers on all the available tables, chairs and even the floor. Dean Mann was born in Illinois in 1924. After serving with United States Naval Intelli- gence, he received a B.S. in Far Eastern Studies Q1948D and an LL.B. 119491 from Indiana University, where he was a member of the board of editors of the Indiana Law journal. Following graduation he served as law clerk to Mr. Iustice Rutledge and Mr. lustice Minton of the United States Supreme Court. He prac- ticed law in Washington, D.C. and served as Special Assistant to the Chairman of the Wage Stabilization Board in 1951. In 1952, after a year on the law faculty of the University of Wisconsin, he came to Stanford. He has been associate dean since 1961. He has also served as visiting professor at Chicago in 1953, and Sunderland Fellow at Michigan in 1959-60. He and his Wife, Virginia, have five children rang- ing in age from two to 15. 1.

It is a rare week that finds Bayless Manning at Stanford for seven consecutive days. Between alumni meetings, professional conferences, scouting trips to lure top-ranking faculty to the Farm, and consulting trips to Washington and New York, Dean Manning manages teaching assignments each term and the administrative tasks that confront the head of a growing and changing educational institution. Born in Bristow, Oklahoma, in 1923, Dean Manning received an A.B. in economics from Yale University in 1943. During World War II he served in the enlisted and officer ranks of the Army Signal Corps as a Japanese translator. In 1949 he received an LL.B. from Yale, where he was editor-in-chief of the Yale Law journal. He served as law clerk to Mr. Iustice Reed of the United States Supreme Court in 1949-50, practiced law with Iones, Day, Cockley 81 Reavis in Cleveland from 1950 until 1956, and taught on the Yale law faculty from 1956 until 1964. In 1962-63 he was special assistant to the Undersecretary of State and has served as a member of federal and state commissions and agencies, particularly in the fields of conflicts of interest and corporation law. Last summer he was appointed by President Johnson to the Presidential Emergency Board to investigate the dispute between American Airlines and the Transport Workers Union. He came to Stan- ford as dean in 1964. A man of many styles, the Dean can be seen speeding from meeting to meeting in his black Porsche, or quietly attacking the pesky winds of San Francisco Bay in the Windward', sloop he owns jointly with Professor Ehrlich. His Wife, Marjorie, has occupied her time since coming to Stanford with the remodeling of their old campus home and smoothing the educa- tional transition from East to West of the four Manning children, Bayless, Ir., Elizabeth, Lucia and Matthew.

Dean Headrick characterizes his duties at Stanford as anything once, nothing twice - a shorthand description of his tasks as a spe- cial assistant to the Dean for a whole range of special projects, including advance planning for a new campus law center.
