DEDICATION John M. Houchens, a native Kentuckian, received a degree in physics from Georgetown College in 1926. After graduation he was employed by the Louis- vi11e Gas and Electric Company as a Maintenance Engineer, then for three years taught related science and mathematics at Ahrens Trade High School. At the invitation of Dean Bennett M. Bridgman, he went to the University in January, 1930 under the presidency of Dr. Raymond A. Kent to become Speed Scientific SchooFs first coordinator of the Cooperation V'Vork Program. During the war he was also director of adult education at the University of Louisville, directed engineering defense training, and served as instructor in physics, mathematics, electrical engineering, engineering drawing and descrip- k k k tive geometry. On December 1, 1948 he was elected Registrar of the University to take oHice on July 1, 1949 upon the retirement of Registrar Ralph E. Hill. His term as Registrar has coincided with the great growth of the University and the corre- sponding increase in voluminous records and admissions. He has worked con- stantly to increase the efficiency of the Registrars Office by more up-to-date forms and procedures and in line with the times is making everrgreater use of computing machines for speed and accuracy. He is an active alumnus of Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity and was instru- mental in the formation of the University of Louisville Chapter, which was installed in April, 1948. He was Faculty Advisor of the local chapter for some years. In 1956 he was awarded the much-coveted and rare Order of Merit by the national organization. . Mr. Houchens was tapped for honorary membership in Omicron Delta Kappa in 1958 and is now faculty advisor of the campus Chapter. He is a member of Sigma Pi Sigma, honorary physics fraternity and has been active in Alpha Phi Omega, service fraternity. He is a past Chairman of the Louisville section of the American Institute of American Engineers and a past president of the Louisville Personnel Associa- tion. He has served on the Board of Directors of the Family Service Organization and has been a member of the Advisory council of the Merit System of the Kentucky State Board of Health. Last year he was President of the Southern Asociation of Collegiate Regis- trars, and is active in the State Organization of Registrars, and in the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions OH'1C61'S. We are proud to dedicate the nineteen hundred and sixty Thoroughbred to Mr. John M. Houchens, Registrar of the University of Louisville.
