OFFICE STAFF The newest addition to the office staff is Miss Loretta Gonering. She is a most competent secretary and already has proved herself to be effective in carrying out the many responsibilities that are hers in the registrar's office. Another member of the office staff whom we have yet to know better, since she came only last May, is Miss Arline Mayville. She is already familiar to us for her brisk businesslike manner and her willingness to supply information to those who seek it at her desk daily. Although these two members of the office staff are comparatively new. we still claim priorities on efficient Miss Carolyn Rolfson. She is secretary-treasurer of the college board of administration, and rumor has it that it is no small task. It is as financial secretary-treasurer, that Miss Rolfson handles all business matters transacted the whole year round. She deserves much credit for her remarkable perseverence and for the way she accepts her duties—she enjoys it all, because, in her own words, there is something new and different every day. The other mainstay of this busy office staff is Miss Marie Swallow, who is the very capable secretary at the Training School. Her job there must keep her hopping, because we catch sight of her only when she makes occasional business visits to the home office up on the second floor. Miss Rolfson and Miss Swallow are roommates. Their interests and hobbies are rather allied, in that Miss Rolfson collects antique glassware, and Miss Swallow has accumulated quite a bit of antique plateware. They both enjoy travelling and have made several extensive excursions together. 14

 REGENT M R. Delzell brings to Central State as regent of our college a rare combination of training and experience for the position which he holds. Reared as he was in a home where the profession of teaching was always the chief interest, he has a sympathy for and an understanding of that phase of our educational program. He himself was graduated from a state teachers' college, taught school, and was a supervising principal at one time. Later he completed the law course at the University of Nebraska and was admitted to the bar. At the present time he is engaged in business and is one of the most successful in his field. Because Mr. Delzell's background is what it is and because he possesses a remarkably public-spirited attitude in all civic matters, his appointment to the Board of Regents was welcomed by our college, the community, and the state. Although he has held this official relationship to Central State for only a comparatively short time, we already feel the results of his contribution and deeply appreciate it. Regent Delzell's father, the late lames E. Delzell who was affectionately known to all the students as Uncle fimmy. was Director of the Primary Division here for many years. Mrs. Wilson Delzell. the former Ruth Oster, is a graduate of our Home Economics Department. Three of the Delzell children. Robert, who is now studying medicine at the University of Wisconsin, James, a cadet at Northwestern Military Academy and Suzanne, a freshman at P. J. Jacobs High School, completed their elementary and junior high school courses in the College Training School here. Wilson, Jr., the youngest son in the Delzell family, is now a pupil in the fifth grade at the Training School. 13

HEALTH SERVICE Regular student health service is an indispensable part ol the daily life at CSTC. The helpfulness and skill of Dr. F. A. Marrs and Nurse Mary Neuberger have made a success of this health service in the past. This year, especially. have new developments been made in regard to the health and well-being of the student body at Central State. One feature of the health service which our college offered to its students this year is entirely new. This feature is free hospitalization for each student. The college has made arrangements with the local St. Michael's Hospital to furnish five days of free hospitalization in a semi-private room for any regularly enrolled student during the college year. This may be needed because of accident or illness. There are a number of restrictions which students should observe, however. One restriction is that the hospitalization must be on the recommendation of the college physician. Dr. Marrs. or. in his absence, on the recommendation of Miss Neuberger. During the one to five days that the college pays for this hospitalization, the use of operating room anesthetic or ordinary dressings will also be taken care of by the college. The regular health services which have been provided in the past will be continued as usual. Each new student is given a complete medical examination and tests are announced from time to time. Dr. Marrs and Miss Neuberger are available for consultation in the health center during regular office hours. Each student is entitled to one home call by the college physician during the year without charge. Miss Neuberger also makes such home calls as are necessary without charge. More and more students have come to avail themselves of this health service offered by the college. Evidently they have come to believe (as Dr. Marrs and Miss Neuberger do) that a little attention at the right time may prevent serious illness later which may interfere with college work. 15
