i 'SJ J ILSON S. Delzell was appointed Regent of the College in 1939 after the death of Mr. Martens, the former Regent. It is necessary that there be one regent for each teachers college in the State, who, when called together under the direction of a regent at large, function as a board of directors on all matters pertaining to the teachers colleges as a whole. Mr. Delzell confers with the President of the College on matters pertaining to the school and acts for the state in an emergency such as occurred when President Smith passed away during the school term. Mr. Delzell is very active in all civic affairs, is member of the local board for draftees, and is in the oil distribution business. He has four children, a daughter and son, Suzanne and Wilson Jr. in the training school and two sons. Bob and Jim. in private schools. — 19 —

'ecut MR. H. R. STEINER MRS. E. PFIFFNER 13 ON'T look at the picture above, and imagine the following combination: a beaming smile (wide and everlasting), a hearty handshake, and a genuine chuckle. Now add a good sprinkling of mirth-quaking iokes (the humorous kind), a line (fisherman's), and—well, there you have our genial Master of Ceremonies —Dean Steiner. Mr. Steiner became Dean of Men way back when—or, ALMOST, and has been guiding the men students of C.S.T.C. through woeful worries since. Although we can't verify Mr. Steiner's alleged possession of a rich bass voice, we do know that he constitutes a one man cheering section on Schmeeckle field (he's a member of the Athletic Committee and an ardent football fan). PrIOR to 1940, Miss Mary Neuberger had been acting as nurse and Dean of Women. Last year Miss Neuberger was unable to devote much of her time to Deaning , since the health offices were enlarged, and her services were needed there. Because of her excellent work in the guidance department of the local high school, Mrs. Elizabeth Pfiffner was asked to become a member of the college faculty and to act as Dean of Women. During this, her first year at C.S.T.C., Mrs. Pfiffner has admirably won the confidence of and counseled the women students. Next year she is planning to inaugurate a guidance program with the purpose of training our future teachers in high school guidance work.

Miss Susan E. Colman chairman of the Committee on Advanced Standing, took time out to attach her signature (''Sue”) to this page. Unlike Mr. Colby, who may be drafted from the radio department into the army, Miss Colman plans to teach again this summer session, and then brush up her roller skating (honest). Mr. Evans acquired the flashiest bus among the faculty this year and even his seven year old puppy—Jerry—sniffs at the old Packard”. Mr. Burroughs is secretly delighted at the professional orientation” for next year—that means an increase in the speech department membership. According to idle rumor, Miss Adele (pronounced ad-a-ley) Davidoff is leaving Central State for better climes next year—Good Luck! Miss Carlsten's handwriting is similar to Mr. Nixon's, and we kinda like Miss Davis' interesting lettering. Miss Carlsten’s art department is producing artistes in ever increasing amounts, and Miss Davis was plagued this year by prospective draftees who wanted to parley-voo in 6 lessons—just in case. This fatalistic attitude is not Iris policy, but while we're on the subject we might add that Miss Allen's home-ec girls will keep — 20 —
