DR. GEORGE MERRICK BAKER DEAN OF THE COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES A Yankee Republican has to be pretty good to stay long in Sewanee, and Dr. Baiter came here long before his students were born. As liaison officer of the College he has admin- istered faculty decrees and heard student complaints with rare tact and good sense. In class good humor and sound scholarship make French and German fascinating studies. DR. RAYARD H. JONES DEAN OF THE THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY Under the leadership of Dean Jones the Theological School has increased the number of its students and made several other changes. Besides his duties as dean, Dr. Jones is professor of Church History. He holds degrees from the University of California, Harvard, General Theological Seminary, and Oxford. [18]

AT HOME TO THE STUDENTS No record or picture of Sewanee would be complete without notice of the gracious hospitality of Mrs. Guerry. Charm, beauty, and jollity are permanent visitors in this household which has become that of the students. Years hence, equations forgotten, dates fled, and authors no longer remembered, Mrs. Guerry ' s image will remain bright in the hearts of Sewanee men. I 17 J
