SECRETARIAI. STAFF Cooperating with the administrative forces, keeping oHicial records, and assisting L department heads are all duties which are undertaken by the secretarial staff in main- taining the efficiency of W. S. T. C. Mrs. Ann Dahle serves in the capacity of secretary to Dr. Beery, Registrar. In addi- tion to keeping the ofIicial records and mail- ing transcripts, she must be on her toes con- tinually to answer all types of inquiries from prospective students. Formerly employed as secretary in the col- lege office, Mrs. Olive Kohlmeyer was sec- retary this past year to Mr. P, A. Carlson in the Commercial Education Office. Much of her time is spent assisting in the work of placement of students in the commercial cur- riculum. I Miss Maeta Lewerenz as financial secre- tary must see that the books of the college are in balance. Maintaining a budget, pay- ing bills, cutting down on unnecessary ex- penses all have a part in Miss Lewerenz,s schedule. Relieving President Yoder of various du- ties wherever possible, plays a part in the work which Mrs. Margaret Rinn undertakes as secretary in the college ofi'ice. One can easily imagine how busy Mrs. Rinn is be- cause of the many responsibilities which are incurred by one who is secretary to the president. Mrs. Mary Updegraif acts in the capacity of secretary in the training school office. Her duties as secretary to Mr. Cannon of the training school are many and varied, but, nevertheless, center around one objective, and that is making the training school an efficient part of the college.

Pres. Claude M. Yoder Mr. Dwight M. Warner Mr. Edgar G. Doudna ADMINISTRATION President Yoder will be remembered by the students and faculty of this college as the white-haired gentleman with the stately air and kindly manner, whose main concern is for the welfare of W. S. T. C. As a result of personal contacts With Presi- dent Yoder, the students have great respect for him. From the first days of school the freshman becomes acquainted with the presi- dent. When meeting him in the hall, stu- dents are always greeted With a warm and friendly tthello? Never too busy to see his students, the president has always encour- aged them 'to stop for a personal visit. One of the new problems which had to be coped with during the past year was that of helping the war veterans adjust themselves to civilian life and the school routine. Presi- dent Yoder,s vital interest in their welfare was repeatedly shown through his personal contacts with the veterans. He also took an active part in state-wide discussions on the amount of college credit which should be given to returning veterans who have com- pleted intensive training courses While in service. The two other members of the administra- tion Who are vitally interested in all current problems of W. S. T. C. are the regents, Mr. Edgar G. Doudna and Mr. Dwight M. War- ner.- Mr. Doudna also serves in the capacity of Secretary of the State Board of Regents of Normal Schools. Mr. Warner, better known as ttPop Warner to the students, is the resident regent of this college. 14
