HEALTH SERVICE The show must go on! Illness on the part of the cast is a calamity which must not occur. To safeguard the health of one thousand three hundred twenty people is an impor- tant as well as a difficult assignment to fulfill, but our Health Service Department has proved itself adequate to meet the demand. Daily, Dr. Scattergood, with the expert assistance of Miss Glance and Miss Dreis, ministers to the sick and wounded in the well-equipped infirmary on Rosedale Avenue. They offer preventive as well as curative measures in an effort to keep their charges In a state of physical fitness. A campaign against syphilis, the administration to seniors and freshmen of the Mantoux test for tuberculosis, and a physical examination of all students are projects which have been executed by this department. Afraid of a doctor? Or nurse? They are our friends and are vitally interested in our well-being. They are the unsung heroes who help make it possible for the show to go on. Dr. Scattergood C Mr. Chambers MAINTENANCE The Maintenance Department is one of those behind- the-scenes departments. It is little heard of, and yet it is one of the most important departments on campus. Included under the jurisdiction of this department is the supervision of the physical facilities of our campus and of the interior of our buildings. Because of the untiring efforts of Mr. Herbert Chambers, our stage and stage settings are always repaired, clean, and ready for use. Miss Rebecca Dissinger is the authority that keeps the Main Dormitory in good working order. To this efficient department we owe a debt of gratitude tor the wholesome atmosphere in which we live. Without a doubt, the greatest influence on our lives during our four years in college is not so much our courses, our faculty ' , or our athletics, but our reaction to life as it is on the campus. This department, with its efficient and capable staff, provides the proper atmosphere in which to live and grow toward better personalities. Twenty-five

c Eleanor E. Starkey Assistant Dean of Women Mr. Killinger ' s greatest forte lies in his sincerity and in his wilhngness to place himself as one of the men. By his innate understanding of their problems, coupled with his straight- forward manner of attack of those problems, he has made himself a force for good, affecting not only the dormitory men but the entire group of men students. Through iier helpful associations with the women Miss Starkey, work- ing with Mrs. King, has done much to foster the finest type of social life on our campus. Not the least of Miss Starkey ' s activities is the lending of her musical talents to various func- tions of our school. Glenn Killinger Dean of Men Twenty-four
