University policy. Ilic ])ast ytai has been a trying one for him with all the problems created by the coming and going of the Army unit, but despite all this his friendly Hello is none the less cheerv as he begins work on plans for the jjost war era at Maine. And over in Fernald, across the street from the l)us Alumni Office, Mr. Philip (. Hrockwav. Placement Director, has been conducting interviews between the seniors and rejircsentativcs of war indus- tries. The Alumni office has set uj) extensive fdes wherein the addresses of all . liuiini and siudcnis in the service are kept up to date. Through this office the Campus is mailed weekly to the undergraduates in all branches of the armed ser ices, and main of them res|}ond frecjucnth wiiii letters. The Ahimuus is still pul)lisliL(l each month and a special overseas cdiiion has been jjrepared for transshi])nuiii to all those outside the United States. The difficidties have been numerous, but by tenacity, loyalty, and plenty of hard work the administrative staffs have ke|)t their work u|} to the usual high standards, and in so doing have made a really usefid contribution to the war effort. 1R 1N(; I ' IKRCl.
