GOVERNOR This man is a citizen of College- town, USA. Not like the student, or the ]nofessor in T-10, or the business man down town, or the woman who takes boarders; he doesn ' t work here, but he ' s as much a citizen as any of these. He works for CoUegetown, USA. As governor of the state of Mis- souri, it is his responsibility to give us wise and efficient admin- istration, and part of that job is in working for the best interests of the state university. Governor Forrest Smith is, in the best sense of the word, one of the first citizens of our town. Board of Curators CoUegetowns first citizens include nine of Missouri ' s most prominent men who represent all sections of the state. As the Board of Cura- tors, they determine policy and govern the university in College- town, USA. Left to right in the ptiotograph are: J. H. WoLPKRS, Frank Stonnf.r, Dr. Glknn W.
