Using four of the six committees from the previous year, the Student Coun- cil began to work on elections, organizations, social life, and various other problems of student government. For the first time in history, elections were conducted during registration for the spring term. This program was conducted by the elections committee headed by Andrew Roeder. Plans are being made to carry out this same program for the elections of coming years.

• BUSINESS MANAGER. Ever since the time he kicked the winning goal to beat Iowa University in a football game, way back when, Mr. Boardman has been serving Iowa State Teachers College in some way or other. At present he is business manager of the college and is noted among administrators for his efficiency in handling of funds and by students for his persistency in col- lecting fees and room rents. • REGISTRAR. No longer by the Grace of kind hearted professors and C. S. Cory'1 but through the Grace of the professors and Dr. Selmer Larsen will seniors be allowed to graduate from Teachers College. Dr. Larsen, replacing Mr. Cory as registrar, comes to this campus this year with wide experience and background ranging from Technical Engineer in Chicago to Registrar and Head of the Mathematics department in New York Normal. • SUPERINTENDENT OF GROUNDS. Who is the man who never misses a thing that goes on on the campus, and who is always there when there is building, landscaping, planning for the future or working on the mechanical equipment of the college? Surely you've guessed it: it's Eldon E. Cole, Super- visor of Buildings and Grounds, one of the most important men behind the scenes of this well-lighted, well-heated, and well-organized campus of ours. Benjamin Boardman Selmer C. Larsen Eldon E. Cole Business Manager Registrar Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds Page 23

campus was the main task of the Committee on Organizations. Don Burch was appointed chairman of this committee. Under the direction of Paul Weaver, the Social Life Committee carried on a survey of students' participation in activities on the campus. The committee is publishing a booklet containing a program of social activities, facilities for recreation, and other valuable information for students of the college. They have also made many recommendations to the Council on what should be done to make this a better campus socially. Tutor Ticklers, the biggest all-student activity of the year, was again sponsored by the Student Council. All funds taken from this production were given to the Student Loan Fund. Aside from these activities the Student Council has been sponsoring all- college dances, cooperating with faculty committees, carrying out a definite social program, and working with other student organizations. This year a new committee was created for the purpose of coordinating all freshman orientation programs on the Campus. This committee will be headed by Joe McPherson who will begin active work with the freshmen next fall as soon as registration for the term is completed.
