E L D For the past quarter-century one man has stood out in his continuous service on the Board in Control of Student Publications. That man, Edson Sunderland, one time member of the Michigan Daily editorial staff, has sought with rare enthusiasm and by continuous vigilance, vigor, and idealism, to establish traditions of excellence in stu- dent publications. From their advent in the back rooms of professional printing shops to their present maturity in a modern self-sustained plant, the student publications have sought to uphold these traditions. In addition to his position on the Law school faculty, he serves the nation as an authority on legal procedure and judicial organization. As Secretary of the Board, Professor Sunderland has encouraged student initiative and the de- velopment of student talent. We of the University Student Publications are privileged to pay tribute to a man whose record is testimony to his service, Edson Read Sunderland.

Elliott G E T S The eleven member Board of Regents serves as a contact between the University and the state legislature. It directs expenditures as limited by legislative appropriations, and sets up the University calendar according to state requirements. Elected bien- nially for eight year terms, the Regents are able to command a wide perspective of the University program and thus capably perform their job as administrative heads of Michigan. The Board ' s ability to attack the problem at hand was recently illustrated by their efficient action on the accelerated National Defense program that they put into effect in January. 13
