.and P. . l-larry Gunnison Brown, Dean The School of Business and Public Administra- tion was established by the Board of Curators in January, 1914. It is the aim of this school to equip students with a general knowledge of business and public administration and to provide training in special fields of business and public service. The greatest difficulty under which this school labored in its early days was a lack of material for study. It was not until after 1914 that business research was established, and many fields of business management were still unexplored for the purposes of study. As there were no textbooks and no satis- factory sources of material in many subjects, one of the achievements of this schoolwas to make the teaching of business and public administration possi- ble. The offering of such courses as sales manage- ment, retailing, industrial management, auditing, accounting, business statistics, municipal administra- tion, investments, labor problems, and others, is the evidence of growth, but of a growth that is far from being complete. Harry Gunnison Brown, of General Economics fame, is now serving as Dean of the B. and P. A. School. Page Z4

BOB BRIGHAM Boldly fighting for liberal policies, Bob Brigham is cheered on by his masses of followers. Accentuating the positive is apparently the Brigham philosophy, and it works very successfully. His understanding manner in the class- room, has made it possible for even Beowulf to come to life. To that, we can only add, he must be a miracle man. FRED MCKINNEY ELLIOT SCHEER Perhaps the most popular Spanish instructor on the campus is Dr. Scheer. His friendly manner can make even the most backward student sit up and take a little mental nourishment. He says that he spends most of his time cutting the grass at his home, and he further contends that he can see it growing behind him, which is extremely dis- couraging. Page 23 Recently returned from service with the Army volatile Fred Mc Kinney is once more proving himself to be one of the most sought after men on the faculty. Vitally interested in personality makeup of students he gets much firsthand information from his close association with student affairs. We extend a hearty Welcome back'

Concerning the latter, we refuse to be quoted. A former Pennsylvanian, professor Faust has rapidly adopted Missouri as a home. 1 l I JOHN G.
