CLIFFORD V. WHITCLUMB, VicefP1incipal But soft, what light from yonder transom hreaks? Oh! It's the VieefPrineipal's office. Mr. Wliiteimxiilw, an importation from Bay View, has proved to he a real Westsider. His office, nestled in an atmosphere of refinement hetween the newspaper and annual oiliees, is one of the busiest places in the school. Witli knocking knees and clicking teeth, the frosh pauses hefore room 102. As he enters the door, he has a feeling of relaxation, for he tells his problems to a kind and friendly person. As the frosh talks to Mr. Whitecmiiih, he realizes that to help, not to hinder, is the VieefPrinCipal's aim. One ean't help feel' ing good when our friend slips in some good oldffashioned humor. Though understanding, misdemeanors do not go unpunishedg yet they are settled fairly and wisely. Yes, here is a man whose reputation for fair play and common sense have made him as much a part of West as the ereaking steps and familiar halls. 7
