GOVERNOR OF THE STATE POLITICIAN JULIUS PETER H E I L POLITICIAN extraordinary, his enormous personal fol- lowing enabled him to assume the regular Republican leadership of the state and become the standard-bearer in the last campaign for the governorship. LEADER, with remarkable magnetic appeal, it was his personality and accomplishments which endeared him to the electorate. FOUNDER of the FHeil Company of Milwaukee after a youth of hardship, best salesman of Wisconsin products, he has nevertheless shown that a long political career is not necessary for success with the voters. BUSINESS- MAN always, his administration has been devoted to an attempt to balance a budget left out of joint by a legis- lature which voted the highest appropriations in history. SPORTSMAN of an unusual cast, his attendance at Uni- versity athletic contests and support of its athletic plant have made him a familiar and welcome figure on Satur- day afternoon in the fall.

Scott H. Goodnight can C ' Considered the most representa- tive Dean of Men today. Scott Goodnight came to the University in the dim past as a Professor of German. Without much doubt, the system which he has intro- duced into his department dates from his training in the rigid German standards. The fact that discipline can be combined with such widespread popularity indi- cates that the man matces the office, and not the office the man. As a University increases in size, it must develop a personnel system as a means of knov ing its students, their needs, and the ways to meet them. The Wisconsin Personnel Council is composed of representatives from the teaching fac- ulty and from all the personnel agencies ; it is attempting to coordinate and de- velop the latter more effectively. By grouping the testing service, the dean of men ' s office, the Registrar ' s office and the information office together v;ith it in the north and central corri- dors, we hope to attain a greater unifi- cation and convenience in functioning. That is the primary purpose of the re- moval of this office to Bascoir. We are more spaciously accommo: ' ate:l and we hope to have a larger student utilization of cur services than ever before. en
