Greene Director of Dormitories Frank Stanton Bursar M, Belle Sweet Librarian C. A. Truitt Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds Faced with an unprecedented enrollment jump, university officials this year managed to gear Idaho's administrative machinery to top speed. C. A. Truitt, superintendent of buildings and grounds, scoured the Northwest for veterans’ housing units, Registrar D, D. Du Sault handled an apparently endless stream of returning veterans, and ©. A. Fitzgerald, university editor, published the final edition of his regular news letter for Idaho servicemen. To these adminis- trators fall the myriad jobs of keeping the university operating efficiently, from scheduling classes to selling basketball lickets. Supreme in the administration of the university is the Board of Regents which, at quarterly meetings, determines policies and final decisions. Regents’ principal project this year was estab- lishment of a sound veterans’ rehabilitation policy. Be ard of Regen ts Latt to right Mr. G. C. Sullivan Mrs. A. A. Steele Judge W. F.

The President of the University I believe the editors of this issue of the Gem of the Mountains would join me in congratulating those who prepared and edited the Gem during the war years for putting out such excellent publications despite the handicaps under which they worked. The war is over and with this issue I am glad to extend congratulations and good wishes to this year’s editorial staff and to the ‘‘reconverted”’ student body, including the hundreds of veterans, now enrolled in the University of Idaho. HARRISON C. DALE President

Graduate Manager Gale L. Mix Freshmen lounging in the Bucket early this year probably didn’t look twice when a short, rotund man in a green coat followed a long cigar into the back rooms of the Student Union building. But to old-timers, the arrival of Gale Mix was the reminder of a colorful Idaho past and 4 promise of boomer days to come. Since 1939, when Mix first assumed duties as graduate manager, he’s proved 4 fireball sports promoter and super salesman. Upon his shoulders fall the complaints and problems of executive boards, rally committees, and student body repre sentatives, who have found him always a good listener and a dependable advisor. Ted Sherman, acting graduate manager during the absence of Gale Mix, sparked Idaho's publicity program and handled ASUI finances ably and enthusiastically until early this spring, then went back to a heavy teaching schedule in the English cepartment. Mrs. Virgil Cherrington served as secretary in the graduate manager's office until March, when she turned the job over to Mrs. James Christiansen. Acting Manager and Secretary Ted A. Sherman and Mrs. Virgil Cherrington
