y Fay E. Smith Fiscal Consultant ADMINISTRATION Mr. Fay E. Smith knows that the cost of running a University is high. He is one of the financial wiz- ards who helps keep the budget under control. Bell gave us the telephone, Morse gave us the tele- graph, but Walt Miller gave us the seven cent bottle of pop. He is taking our Union out of the red and is putting it on solid financial ground. When John Jones or Mary Smith cracks the Honor Roll or does something else equally difficult. Miss Gertrude Dorety is the one who sends their names in to the home-town newspaper. She serves as pub- licity agent for all the students on the campus. Mr. H. L. Van Blair is the keeper of the A.S.U.W. books. He is the man who gets hot on your trail if he finds that you owe the University money. He keeps strict surveillance on the school budget. R. Walter Miller Student Union Director Gertrude Dorety News Service Harold L. Van Blair Auditor, Student Accounts 23

N. O. Rush Director, University Library L. G. Meeboer University Business Manager Mr. L. G. Meeboer is the man who pays the bills here at this multi-million dollar institution. You think your bills are high . . . brother, you haven ' t seen anything. Mr. N. O. Rush, who came very recently to the Uni- versity of Wyoming, has developed our present li- brary to a degree that had never previously been reached. He has many plans for the development of a new library. Construction on the new build- ing is slated to begin sometime in 1951. Dr. O. R. Hendrix is in charge of the testing services which find whether students are best fitted for teach- ing school or washing dishes. He plays an impor- tant part in finding jobs for graduating students. He also lends an ear to students with long, sad stories who find college life not to their liking. Mr. J. D. Alford is a school teacher who doesn ' t know whether his students are slim, chubby, or ob- noxious. He is in charge of all the correspondence courses which are mailed to all parts of the state. O.

H. M. Briggs Dean of Agriculture R. R. Hamilton Dean of Law DEANS AND DEPARTMENT HEADS This year, the theme of our WYO is New Fron- tiers. Befitting our theme, we have asked some of the Deans and Department heads to speculate on the exploration and development of new frontiers still to be pioneered in each of their departments. Dean H. M. Briggs was not in Laramie at the time of the WYO interviews and was therefore not avail- able for comment. This is Dr. Briggs ' first year as head of the College of Agriculture, and we are sure he has many ideas for developing and exploring new frontiers in Agriculture. Dean R. R. Hamilton: Although it may be a sur- prise to many people, we do not plan to have too much of an increase in enrollment because we do not wish to overpopulate the state with lawyers. However, we do plan to extend our legal services to various agencies in the state. Dean David O ' Day: Being a comparatively new de- partment in the university, we have a great many plans for expansion, such as increasing library facili- ties, installing two new laboratories, and the taking over of the first three floors of Merica Hall. Dean Mundell: The College of Commerce and In- dustry is working on improvements and changes in each four-year curriculum and in each individual course. It is anticipated that physical facilities and equipment will continue to be the best available. i stfY ioa David W. O ' Day Dean of Pharmacy M. C. Mundell Dean of Commerce 24 m
