9 ADMINISTRATIVE BOARD There is a time in every year directly following the spring formal season when studies are thrown to the high heavens and every good politician gets busy with his button-holing. It is at this season that those inalien- able rights of every American citizen, freedom of speech, press, and assembly, are strained to their con- stitutional limits and the abyss of un-American activity is approached. After the fever heat has died away, three haggard, successful candidates emerge victorious to mount seats on the Administrative Board. Last year, thanks to the gods and Grabert, these three were Ed Katterhenry, Gracie Schneider, and George Koch, presi- dent, secretary, and treasurer of the Student Associa- tion. These three olficers then automatically became mem- bers of the Administrative Board of the Student-Faculty Federation and met with the three deans and the presi- dent of the College to enable students and faculty . . . to promote most effectively the aims of the Col- lege as symbolized in the seven-branched candlestick of the College seal. They met every Tuesday at 4:00 to propound means to effect this purpose. Here we have Ed Katterhenry, president of the Student Association in the year of the Trium- virate. Ed, besides wielding a mean gavel in the Friday assemblies, also plays a flne game of basketball. Read his How I Became President or Holland Boy Makes .Good in the Senior section of this book. .

al C EXECUTIVE SECRETARY ai Mr. Ralph Evans Olmsted may be known to some of you as he who takes my money, or he who posts tuition notices, but his duties really extend further than that. Although he is an instructor in iournalism, his main duties have to do with the financial status of the College. As you all know, it was his grapefruit farm in Texas that kept E.C. running through the depression. Although Mr. Olmsted is a very busy man, he is very nice about giving up his valuable time for students to confer with him if they bear tuition checks. Mr. Olmsted got his start lthough you may read about it more fully in the April 1 edition of the 1940 Crescentl when he came to Evansville College in 1919 and worked very hard. Two years later he was elected editor of the first LinC the College ever published, and the next year he switched publications and served as editor of the Crescent. And in spite of his heavy duties on the College weekly, he was elected to a third office, that of president of the student body. A few years later, Mr. Olmsted came back home and filled the chair of secretary to the president, and again he did so well that before long he became executive secretary of the College. It was thought that his next step in advancement had come about when it was read in the Crescent this spring that Mr. Olmsted was one-third of the Tri- umvirate appointed by the Board of Trustees to fill the presidential vacancy, how- ever this notice did not prove to be true. l
