The original board of directors was Earl S. Paul, president; W. B. Prout, vice-president; R. A. Clarke, secretary-treasurer; H. A. Dixon; Thomas Wangsgard; Lorenzo E. Peterson; LeRoy Blaser; and Ora Bundy. The committee has sponsored a project each year (except during the war when the students were all in the armed services) as follows: 1. In 1940-41 a house was constructed at 2933 Brinker Avenue under the supervision of Lorenzo Peterson, instructor. It was sold to W. H. Handley. 2.
