THE CULLOWHEE YODEL RUTH OLIVER, BURSAR Miss Oliver came to Cullowhee in the latter part of May, 1924, and accepted a temporary position as Assistant Secretary to the President. Her diligence in work and her fine training soon proved that she was a young woman of unusual business qualities, and within three months, her duties were enlarged to that of Secretary and Bookkeeper. Her responsibilities continued to increase, and in August, 1926, she was relieved of Secretarial duties and appointed by Governor McLean, upon the recommendation of President Hunter, as Budget Officer of the School under the new State Budget System. Upon the death of Mr. W. N. Coward, Bursar, in January, 1928, Miss Oliver served as Acting Bursar until the annual meeting of the Board of Trustees in May, when she was officially appointed Bursar of the School. This position involves the handling of the entire financial resources of the School and requires the making of a $10,000 bond. Miss Oliver was born November 13, 1905, in Sylva, North Carolina, and is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Oliver. After completing her elementary school training in Bryson City and Sylva graded schools, she entered the Sylva High School, where she graduated in 1923. Following her graduation she entered North Carolina College for Women and completed the Commercial Course offered at that institution in the spring of 1924. Since coming to Cullowhee, Miss Oliver has won for herself the confidence and good-will of all her associates. She is retiring in her manner, but is always courteous to her friends both in business and social relationships. Her efficiency in her work and her neatness in keeping her records have brought repeated commendations from the State Auditors and members of the Budgeting Commission. It is quite safe to assert that no other young woman in North Carolina of Miss Oliver's age is being entrusted with such heavy responsibilities in keeping the records and handling the State's finanses. Mr. S. B. Hutchinson and Mr. Nor- val Rofrers, former students of Cullowhee, were welcomed visitors on the campus Tuesday, the 8th. Mr. Hutchinson is teaching English and Science and Mr. Rogers the 5th and 6th grades in the Rock Hill High School, Haywood County. Field Notes We are glad to know that Mr. Lewis P. Hamlin, who graduated from Cullowhee in 1912, has been named as floor leader of the Republican party in the Legislature. Mr. Hamlin is from Brevard, N. C. He is one of the most popular men in that section and his selection to the post of honor brings joy to his many friends in Transylvania County and to all those throughout the state who know him. Messrs. John and Edward Battle are connected with the G. M. Cole establishment in Sylva, N. C. They are among our influential advertisers for the Yodel. Mr. J. O. Wood is superintendent of Black Mountain School, Black Mountain, N. C. Mr. Vernon W. Brown is principal of Red Oak High School. His address is Asheville, R. 1. Mr. O. S. Dillard is serving his second year as principal of Leicester High School, Leicester, N. C. Miss Gene Johnston, a graduate of Cullowhee, is teaching second grade at Hayesville, N. C. Mr. Vance Green, a frequent visitor on the campus, is teaching at Jud- son, N. C. Mr. Marshall Gass has joined the U. S. Navy. He expects to leave soon. Miss Ha Bost is teaching first grade at Concord, N. C. She is enjoying her work very much. Miss Lucile Endy, a 1927-'28 student, is teaching near her home, Hamlet, N. C. Miss Marion Langley, who has been working in Durham, N. C, is now at home in Oriental. Miss Mary Davis, one of our last year's basketball stars, is teaching at Ironduff, N. C. Mr. Theodore Jervis is teaching at Almond, N. C. Miss Verayle Calhoun, a former student at Cullowhee, attended Cecil's Business College last year and is now working for the County Superintendent of Swain County. Miss Mary Bost has given up the teaching profession and is now taking a Business Course. She is getting along fine with her work. Misses Sybil Hinnant and Mildred Davenport are both attending East Carolina Teacher's College, Greenville, N. C. Mr. and Mrs. Mack Kelley are teaching at Pleasant Hill, S. C. Miss Queenie Ledbetter is teaching at Nesbitt, N. C. Miss Lorene Yorke, Editor-in-chief of the Yodel last year, is now attending the University of Tennessee. Miss York is doing excellent work. Miss Vera Stewart is teaching at Bishop Branch, S. C. She is enjoying her work very much. Miss Gladys White is attending school at Fredericksburg, Va. Miss FACULTY AND STAFF MEMBERS Serving Since Beginning of Present Administration. Top Row (reading from left to right): F. H. Brown, \V. E. Bird, R. L. Madison, F. L. Key, Mrs. Lucy Posey, E. H. Stillwell. Bottom row: Alice Benton, H. T. Hunter, Eleanor Gladstone, C. H. Allen. Wilhelminie Branch was attending school at Fredericksburg, also, but, on account of sickness, she has had to return home. Miss Vivian Jones is teaching at Qualla, N. C. Miss Annie Sawyer is teaching at Oriental, N. C. Miss Ivy Woodward is teaching at Vandermere. We hear that both Miss Woodard and Miss Sawyer are thinking of changing their names Miss Victoria Carroll is teaching at Exchange Did You Know That: Santa Claus brought Ruth Jenkins a ring? Mrs. Posey doesn't like "long good- Conley Rogers will graduate with an A. B. (a bum) degree? Virgie Watkins has decided to be a millionaire instead of a school teacher—and how? Roy Watson ate too much tongue the other night? (Lucy Lee) Gabriel recently blew her horn? Zora Mae Dotson has forgotten the rest of her name? Terrible! Ha Champion is the champion proctor so far? She checks up every night. Miss Powell forgot to give us soup Monday ? The Yodel wishes to acknowledge the receipt of the following papers. We are glad to see our exchange list grow not only in quanity but also in quality. Among the new exchanges are: The Eastern Progress—the publication of Eastern College, Richmond, Ky., is a well balanced paper. It has just enough of the college events, college sentiment and fun. We like especially the editorials. The Chalk Line—published by E. T. S. T. C, Johnson City, Tenn., is very interesting. When we read the first page we just have to read the rest of it because the next article always looks so inviting. The Campus Chronicle -a weekly publication of the students of California State Teachers College, California, Penna. The Yodel is glad to welcome this Northern friend. Through its pages, perhaps, the Cullowhee students may come to know of the problems which confronts teachers in other sections of our country. The Blue Flame—The Seniors of Pickens High School, Pickens, S. C, deserve the highest of praise for this publication. In their Foreword, we find this statement, "We are presenting to you the characteristics of our high school life." In the body of their magazine we find ample proof of the statement, and a very interesting life it must be! Campus View from Neighboring Hill
