MCWHINNIE At certain tunes ot the vear there ? % -it ' ■ ' !■ ' ■ there is undoubtedly no more thoroughly discussed individual than Mr. R. E. McWhinnie, Registrar of the University of Wyoming. Those tfmes are registration and time for grades to ' come out. ' On this page we present a hirds-eye view of what registration means to the student bodv. But do the students realize what this does to Mr. McWhin- nie? To coin a phrase, Oh, confusion ! (There seems to he no tangible method of illustrating what the com- ing of grades means to the student unless we portray him standing silently at attention ... with a .45 at his head.) S J ' ■ K ' : ' - w » ■.::■ ' ! ... V FALL QUARTER SKETCH Listen, my children, and you shall hear Of the quarter gone before it teas here. Oh, why am 1 here — what did 1 come for— who are all these people — 1 don ' t have a book— quit slapping my back, 111 join your organization — I love that hat. ' said alj the funny people. Can you think of anything lovelier than fall quarter with its quiet repose and lovelv parties? No...? Well, now 1 can ' t understand whv. Tlmre were no books » • and you re griping: friends, is a nice legitimate reason I h a t, my or a PARTY. Even when hooks came in there seems to have been very few peo- ple who could afford them . . . except the little men with requisitions. Then descended Homecoming, replete with alums, sunny skies, a football team (at; last ) . and two Colonnas with but one mule. Jov Delatour reigned as Homecoming queen (that was a fine job of campaigning, Tri Delts), and one poor AP teletyper nearly lost his job when he wired the score of the game. They thought he had been celebrating the event in true WVoming fashion. Many students journeyed to out-of-town games such as those at Greeley, Boulder, and Denver (the Pi Phis and Sig Alphs had a lovely time, thank you). Queens, queens, queens! Jean Watson (Engineer Queen), the Hayes sisters running of! with just a few I uh-hiih ) of the honors at the Little International . . . just a few of the many royal pfr- i h sonages reigning. Then descended the final blow . . . FINALS. Just a feeeeee- www down slips were sent out. Oh, pish- posh ! Lets forget it (if we can ) . jc,

EDNA TICHAC i Bi Amid assorted screams, yells, giggles, broken coffee cups, old cigarette butts, and defaced tables plus a multitude of varied complaints and questions works Mrs. Edna Tichac, director of the University of Wyo- ming ' s Student Union. The only reason that Mrs. Tichac has not had a nervous breakdown from the strain is probably the pace which she has set for herself which keeps her going so fast that she doesn ' t have time for such trivial things. She has been in her present capacity for a number of years and has done an excellent job of keeping the focal spot for the University students in some semblance of order. It is one of the biggest jobs on the campus with more gripes than credit given in return, but Edna continues to take it on the chin and still be able to laugh about the whole thing. C. B. JENSEN If you are at a basketball game or a dance in the Union ballroom and somebody says to you, and we quote, You can ' t smoke that cigarette here! that man is undoubted- ly Mr. Jensen, head of the Buildings and Grounds Department. It is Mr. Jensen who sees to it that all of the buildings on the campus are kept in repair and that the campus itself is mowed, weeded, etc. It is also Mr. C. B. Jensen we have to thank for the happy gurgle of little irrigation ditches in the spring. You don ' t think the campus is so big, huh? Then go over and trade jobs with Mr. Jensen for a few days and see if you don ' t change your opinion. 19
