Graduate Manager Graduate Manager Ted A. Sherman is business agent of the student body. Upon his shoulders fall the problems of handling finances for all ASUI and class projects, ASUI dramatic productions, athletics, publica- tions and other activities that concern the student body as a whole. Through the graduate manager’s efforts, ASUI events have been kept alive and publicized throughout the state. Ted A. Sherman Seonetaties Secretaries to the graduate manager this year were Mrs. A. E. Whitehead, who resigned in March, and Mrs. Virgil Cherrington, who took her place. Keeping ASUI files and writing letters is only half the secretary's job. The other half consists of answering innumerable queries of harried class officers, assembly chairmen, and other activity leaders to facilitate ASUI activities. Mrs. A. E. Whitehead 24

sdminishative staff calls University signals, Despite no relief from government priorities, labor shortages and great cuts in available funds, university administration officials have continued to operate the school smoothly and efficiently, as evidenced by main- tenance of pre-war educational standards, well-kept buildings and lawns. Keeping up university supplies and equipment has been a difficult job these war years, but Mrs. Evelyn M. Albrecht, acting purchasing agent, has handled it well. D. D. DuSault, appointed registrar late last sum- mer, has helped keep academic requirements up to pre-war standards. O. A. Fitzgerald, university editor, keeps Idahoans informed of university doings through bulletins to newspapers. Robert F. Greene, director of dormitories, who con- verted civilian dorms into Army and Navy headquarters, was faced this year with reconverting them back into civilian quarters. Chrisman Hall already has Idaho men living in it, and Willis Sweet Hall is now being recon- verted for occupation next fall. Overseer of the library is Miss M. Belle Sweet, who keeps the university book haven supplied with latest best sellers and important reference books, including government bulletins pertaining to all colleges of the school, Frank Stanton, bursar, is the man to see about all finances—administrative and student—where the uni- versity is concerned. Superintendent of buildings and grounds, C, A. Truitt, was handicapped by lack of labor, but the university’s physical assets have remained in fine shape—lawns are as well-cared-for as in former years. Dr. C. A. Armstrong and Dr. C. J. Klaaren, Moscow physicians, hav e jointly assumed the position formerly held by a full-time physician at the infirmary. They are not only responsible for student health, but have the added job of caring for the physical well-being of the Army unit. The “hats off'’ department gives a vote of thanks to Idaho's administrative officials—for their untiring efforts to keep giving students the things they take for granted, despite present hardships. 23 Evelyn M.

Mrs. Louise S. Carter Dean of Women Mrs. Louise S. Carter, acting dean of women, finds herself busy as director of women’s activi- ties. Her job is a much greater responsibility in war days because of the greater number of women enrolled in the university this year. . . Member of Spur . . . Received degrees from University of Washington and Columbia .. . Dean Carter has the last word on women’s activities . . . establishes lockout hours, passes on social functions, and all in all watches with a motherly eye over a brood of university women. She retains friendships when saying “yes’’ or “no” to that ticklish task, and retains her enthusiasm for campus events. tN 82) Herbert E. Lattice Dean of Men Herbert E. Lattig, acting dean of men, was former head of department of agricultural edu cation. Dean Lattig now takes up his comparative- ly new position by serving on the student-faculty council and some half dozen other student and faculty committees . . . acting as NYA adminis trator and coordinator of reserves and draftees, he has his working day most thoroughly filled. Naturally at this time his job is abnormal, but with the men students gradually returning to the university, his duties will be shifting toward @ more pre-war campus life. His calls to men's houses and halls will be more frequent and an increasing number of men’s activities will be quided
