WOODHOUSE Dr. Rex Winslow William D. Carmichahl Rbove the Rest E. ' ILLY CARMICHAEL left a lucrative seat on the New York Stock Exchange several years ago to come back to his Alma Mater as Comptroller. Since then he has guided the University through a period of critical financial anxiety. Called invaluable by the administration and the Navy, he has done top-notch work in consolidating friendships for a beleagured University. REX WINSLOW, fast-talking, cracker-jack economist brings to his classes a freshness and clarity that his students do not forget. As much as any teacher, Winslow has pointed the way to students confused on a war-geared campus. A refreshing, exhilerating professor, he keeps his classes above the usual hum-drum level. Students may never know what is going to happen next, but they keep coming back expectantly. Burdened by no pedagogical illusions, Winslow knows and likes his students — and they like him. Because he has been a stimulus both in his actions and his chats, DR. EDWARD J. WOODHOUSE deserves a real place on this page. His classes — held out-of-doors whenever possible — have been termed easy by many, but they have made a more lasting impression than many a fact-filled memory course. Always ready for a chat, always ready to recommend the book you want, always up to the minute on everything from world-affairs to the chances in the game with Duke, Dr. Woodhouse has been the ideal college prof in every sense of the word.

Beki LtsiER Bhnnett men ' s STUDEni OFFICERS Bert Lester Bennett President James Stevenson Peck Vice-President Ira Samuel Gambill, Jr. . . . Secretary-Treasurer J 0 »ONG on perspiration and short on acclamation might well be the epitaph of this year ' s Student Council. Headed by efficient, energetic Bert Bennett the Council started its year ' s work early in the summer sessions and then went on from there to compile an enviable record of achieve- ment. Hard work and plenty of it was the Bennett key to success as the Council set about the mammoth task of acclimating each new student to the Honor System and the Campus Code. Working through the extensive freshman orientation program, the Council started its indoctrination campaign before the new men had time to settle into University routine. Countless letters had been written during the summer months preparing counselors and freshmen alike for what was to come. Small groups of new men were brought up before the Council each night during the fall quarter until every man in the freshman class had been thus contacted. All ramifications of the Honor System and the Campus Code were explained, test cases were utilized to show the methods of the Council and questions were encouraged. 26
