ADMINISTRATION OFFICE Since our school is really a huge business, the main office is the connecting link between the state and us and handles everything from payrolls and hiring to guinea pigs for biology lab. Even taking our money goes through this busy system. Miss Carolyn Rolfson, Mrs. Eileen Glinski, Miss Grace Pehoski, and Jeanette See always find time to give information to the seeker as to the whereabouts of Suzy at some particular hour, or where some instructor who is not in his room might be. Some of the other odd jobs that fall to their lot include the mimeographing of tests, charts, and bibliographies and the tracking down of possible blood donors at the request of the hospital. Humorous incidents occur at the information desk too. More than once a student has been known to come in to inquire about the class schedule of another student, only to find that they are both in the same class at that hour. The personnel of the records office includes Dr. A. S. Lyness, registrar, Miss Sidone Anderson, secretary, and Harriet Obinger, student secretary. Applications for enrollment, transcripts. recording of subjects dropped and credits earned, and upkeep of our little brown books are among the jobs that keep this staff busy. The Training School Office, with Miss Marie Swallow as its secretary, takes care of placement and credentials for all graduates in addition to keeping a record of all children who attend the school from the year they enter until they leave. This analysis of the work of the administrative staff should make us appreciate the many services they perform for us. 15

In Memoriam On the twenty-sixth day of September, nineteen hundred forty-seven, the Angel of Death suddenly called from our midst a beloved member of our faculty, Alex T. Petersen. An illustrious alumnus of Central State Teachers College, he was a fine student, a skillful teacher, a true friend, and a man four-square. Deeply we mourn his passing while we strive to find consolation and understanding in the words of the poet: Its duty done. — as sinks the day. Light from its load the spirit flies; While heaven and earth combine to say 'Sweet is the scene when virtue dies.' WRITTEN BY — Miss May Roach 14

Health.. Maintenance.. Testing WE DIDN'T NEED AN APPLE Ka Choo!” . . . Say Ah! . . . Take two of these daily! . . . are familiar words which remind us of our Health Department. Once again we are indebted to Miss Mary Neuberger and Doctor Fred Marrs who have performed such noteworthy service in providing us with excellent medical service. THEY MADE THE HALLS A LITTLE BRIGHTER Too often we take for granted the work of the maintenance staff which has served us so well during the past year. From them we were always assured of the best possible service. To them we owe a debt of gratitude which can be but partially repaid with a sincere Thank You. NOT A MORON IN A CARLOAD A recent innovation at CSTC is the college testing bureau which provides students with a comprehensive battery of tests designed to guide them in their vocational selections. This service, though originally established to assist veterans, has been made available to all other students. Many of us have tried it... . it's time well spent. 16
