The board of trustees has approved a proposal for a revised administrative structure of the college submitted by President Flora. The new administrative chart creates a position, to be known as Academic Vice President, replacing the present office of Provost, to whom all academic departments and cluster colleges would report. In addition, reporting to the vice president would be the Dean of the Graduate School and the Dean for Faculty Research and Grants. The shift in reportage of the latter two positions in the new plan TRUSTEES IN SESSION-Western’s Board of Trustees listen to comment from person in large constitutes the primary change from the audience during recent meeting.

For the past 14 years, Dysart O. Maconaghie, security marshal, has been a familiar figure in his blue uniform on Western’s campus. In carrying out his job, he has been a benefactor to students and faculty members In his role as one of the most helpful and understanding security officers around. He has also been a nemesis at times, writing citations or ordering an errant vehicle impounded. Effective the end of March, Mac has officially retired from the security force, and in doing so has ended his second career. Before coming to Western, the smiling campus officer spent 30 years with the U.S. Navy and at the time of his retirement from the service was the last man on active duty who had been a member of the crew of an American rigid airship. Born In Bloomington, Illinois, 1909, Mac joined the navy in 1929 and became an aviation structural mechanic. Looking back on those days, he says he Is glad he enlisted when he did because he was assured of a regular paycheck during the difficult days of the Great Depression and he had a head start on developments in the service during World War II. “I had planned to go to college,” he said, “but my education would have undoubtedly been Interrupted by the depression. Then, just as my career would have been nicely started, the war would have taken another four years out of my life.” As it turned out, Maconaghie went through the ranks as an enlisted man, became an officer and emerged from the navy as a commander, in charge of security at the lighter-than-air station at Lakehurst, New Jersey. During the 1930s, Mac was assigned Angeles, which was used to train crews squadron was transferred to a larger, to a squadron of Curtis biplane fighters and develop mooring techniques.

5 Alumni groups hold meetings The Alumni Association sponsored two social events recently as part of an effort to generate dialogue concerning higher education in Washington. The King County members of the alumni board arranged for a no-host social hour at Seattle’s Olympic Hotel February 17 for alumni and parents of currently enrolled students at Western.

Vik hoopsters finish with 15-10 record Winning 10 out of the last 12 games, including the final six, the Western Viking basketball team closed out its 1972-73 season with a highly respectable 15-10 record. The performance gave the Viks a second place finish to Central Washington in the tough Evergreen Conference and preserved Coach Chuck Randall’s record of never having had a losing season in his 11 years on the hill. Guard Mike Franza enjoyed a spectacular year on the maples, finishing with a 25.6 per game scoring average which was tops in the Northwest and 15th among the nation’s small colleges.
