THE RECORD KEEPER • • •

DR. STEWART H. SMITH -- PRESIDENT

Dr Smith, 28th President of Marshall College, is an able administrator and one well qualified for the position. A graduate of Millersville State Teachers Col­lege, Gettysburg College, Columbia University and Syracuse University, his exper­ience as a teacher has been fully varied including work in a one-room r u r a I school, in high school, in university summer schools, Dean of Teacher's College at Marshall, acting President and finally President of Marshall.

Page Ten

Dr. Smith believes that a college student's experience is broadened by outside activities, a fact evidenced by his own undergraduate days when he was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Tau Kappa Alpha, Omicron Delta Kappa, president of his student body, a member of the debating team, busi­ness manager of his college publication, and a member of the Inter-fraternity council.

Now, who says he ain't "hep"?

In 1837 the citizens of Cabell County banded together a n d founded Marshall Academy "to keep up a good school prep a r ­atory to entering college - and to prepare young men fo r teach­ers in the common school's of the country."

The record since then has progressed with an amazing growth. Marshall Academy has become Marshall College, and from the small State Normal School it has emerged into a nationally recogn i­zed institution of higher learning.

In contrast with the Marshall of 1837, where only reading , writing, history, latin, and mathematics were taught, the Marshall of today offers equally as many degrees, not to mention graduate work in nine separate departments. Our first full faculty of five members, in 1859 has grown tremendously as our record shows here.

They are a capable, qualified, and understanding group of in­dividuals, and its been swell hitching a ride on this disc through our days at Marshall with them.

SOCIAL DEANS

It's not unusual to find one or more students wandering about the office between Dean Buskirk's private office or Dean Brailey's. But it is unusual not to find "Millie," (Dean Buskirk's private secretary) at her desk. But a miracle happened the time this shot was made so we find Marilyn Knotts, student assistant, Elizabeth Barron, secretary to Dean Brailey and one of the students hard at work.

Page Twenty

"THANKS FOR THE MEMORY •••.. "

We dug up some old Ohio State Year­books and really got the lowdown on this fellow. And Brother, after three and one­half years as assistant dean there, he's really qualified for his job here at Marshall.

The Dean is both enthusiastic and con­scientious in his work as we well know. He is always willing and happy to lend assis­

-tance and give advice to all as the Chap­lain of the Campus - "Take it to Brailey."

His duties and responsibilities are un­limited: housing, financial aid, unemploy­ment, social aid, and many o u t s i d e activities, not to mention bailing us out of jail, but as Dean of Men his most frequent phrase is - "Ain't That Just Like A Man?"

If you've lost anything whether its your gloves or ability to smile - the place to go is Dean Buskirk's office. She is always there to fix you up. Mrs. Buskirk knows what a Marshall co-ed thinks- for she was one herself- left Marshal to get her Master's at Columbia - she knows the professor's side of it too for she has taught in three separate schools.

As Dean of Women she fills in her "extra time" directing Marshall's social calendar. She is in charge of the sororities and Pan­Hellenic Council and works overtime as a chaperone at the various "And Stuff Like That There .••.. "

To the right of the sanctum sanctorium (Dean Bartlett's

office) we find the quartet harmony. Here Mary Day,

standing, checks a schedule with Sylvia Summers, sec­

retary to dean. Virginia Duling Via re-checks a letter

in the background. While Mildred June Cotrill gives

information over the phone.

The record of records is kept in the registrar's office.

Here Marianne Jordon, veteran's c I e r k s e t s P e t e

Chacharonis straight as Anne Kauffelt, secretary to

registrar, checks with Mary lou Haslett, transcript clerk.

Sue Washington, Mr. Young's secretary types in the

background .

"How do you do it" records to read, records to write,

records to file, records to look up, records to send out,

records to keep: It is truly a record day for all the staff

in the various offices of Marshall.

We took a camera and wandered around the hall of

Old Main and snapped a few shots because without

it, would have a broken record .

What they don't teach in teacher's college can't be

taught! Fixing up a schedule for a prospective teacher

is Miss Mary linda Barilla. Hard at work at the left

is Ethelene Holly, Secretary to Dean Wilburn.

The President's office might be called the Smiths'

office - for it is not only President Smith's second home

but also houses Vita lee Smith, College Secret a , r y.

Caught in the midst of a working day are -- left to

right; Mrs . Jack Owens, secretary to Mrs . Smith, Mrs.

Vita lee Smith and Miss Adrian Arnett, secretary to Mrs.

Smith . Standing is G. J. Dickerson, Jr., assistant to Mr.

Benner.

A new addition to the family of building and maintenance em­ployees is Charles Co II in s w h o came to us from Poca High School. He is loaded with experience and a degree from West Virginia Tech.

Charles Collins, Superintendent of

Buildings and Grounds

George Beckett a college instit­ution for the last 7 years is our new Chief Engineer. He super­vises our new custodial staff.These are the people that keep o u r needle clean so that our tone is better than it would have been if they weren't on the job.

Page Twenty-two

George Beckett, Chief Engineer

Marshall has more than its share of Smiths in the adminis­tration departments. But one man we can't forget is Fred Smith, college comptroller. This is his first year at Marshall and those of us who have been here have noticed the changes he has brought about. Below we see him speaking at a dinner for the custodial and maintenance group given in February.

The place where the forms for all the records a r e made is the mimeograph office. Lillian Newcomb is the chief record maker. If you ever want any information or ideas on how to make-up a paper, bulletin, or records, Mrs. Newcomb is the one to ask. She keeps novel ideas up her sleeves, with hard work, good nature in her finger tips, what more do you need for a scribe.

The one office at Marshall with which we are familiar is the treasurer's office. All of us know Mrs. Edith Alexander, cashier, but not all of us know those who keep track of all the money of the college. Here is Mrs. Vida Franklin, book­keeper, Mrs, Constance Arther, payroll clerk and Mrs. Helen J. Clayton, clerk typist. Mrs. Louise Thompson, treasurer was counting money in her office and we didn't get her pict­ure in.

Books, paper, pencils, pens, ink - all the things to help you think, are in the bookstore. Here we see Jim Wright a student buying sup­plies from Everett Newman, assistant manager. Another student and Junior Vandall, the stud­ent assistant looking on. The room behind this main bookstore serves as the college postoffice and informal gossip center of the fa cuI t y.

Everett Newman, assistant manager, hails from Huntington. Percy Galloway, manager is from Kenova. He attended Marshall 15 years ago and liked it so much he just stayed on.

CHIEF DISK JOCKEY • • •

Page Twenty-four

"There'll be Some Changes made/' was the tune to which our chief disk jockey climbed on the turntable. You've seen the guy presiding at the Student Council meetings or College Theatre conclaves. Heard him as John in "Two on an Island" or Masters in "Joan of Lorraine." The administration knows him for as he spins the platters the music comes out harmoniously for he has the technique of blending all the notes of college life into a pretty good melody.

"He's a Real Gone Guy" and you can tell from the picture above. The Independents started singing "Old Loudermilk Sky" when they heard the election was coming and the majority of the student body must have heard that song for election day they come out to put Don to work supervising the music that issues forth from this Marshall Wave Length.
