“NOW IT SHOULD LOOK LIKE THIS” Beginning with the provision of programs and public address services for the football games in the Teachers College stadium and for your Old Gold of 1936, the Publicity Office has been kept busy throughout the school year of 1935-36. During this time, four football programs, seven basketball pro- grams, four departmental bulletins, the Student Handbook, and four issues of the Alumnus have been published as part of the services of the Bureau. Through its regular daily news service to state papers, some 2,000 news stories have been mailed out. GEORGE H. HOLMES Director Bureau of Publicity Page 29

FRESHMAN AND SOPHOMORE TESTS GRADES ARE RELEASED The Bureau of Research has had charge of the freshman and sophomore testing programs. The scores made by the students in these tests have become a part of their permanent record.

PLANNING FOR THE ALUMNI There are nine thousand graduates of Iowa State Teachers College in Iowa alone, plus a great number in other states, and it has been the task of the Bureau of Alumni Affairs and Public School Relationships to keep in close contact with all of these people. The information obtained through these contacts has been used by the college in keeping informed of the advancement of graduates. The Homecoming events were planned by this office and a banquet arranged for at the Iowa State Teachers Convention at Des Moines. Nearly four hundred graduates attended this affair, at which Mr. A.
