hx, mducer . . . CII.-KIRhI.NN DR. BRYN-JONES journeyed to England for the first part of the year. Carleton missed him and was glad to welcome back its famous speaker at the end of his sojourn. Once more he was able to hold the attention of all the students as he told of conditions in Eng- land. lve all agree that he is Carletonis example of good international relations. While D1-. B1-yn-J ones was away, no one played, because Mr. Lang, Bliss Stoddard, and Dr. Young carried on the department's policy in an excellent and efficient fashion. Dr. Young is the newest addition coming to us from Washington. TAXES, BANKING, corporation law, and monopolies are just a few of the subjects under discussion which attract students to the Econ department. There is also Mr. Robinson, chairman, and his contingent of helpers, Messrs. Bianchi, Bond, Gillam, and Pu. Most of the graph-happy majors elect an economics major with an eye to nternationa Relations F Psychology Philosophy further study at law school or as fortification against a cold and callous business world. Incidental: The national debt is still this de- partment's biggest headache. Professor Headley leads the academic procession when the faculty dons its splendor and also leads the psychology department. Freshmen are first introduced to A the mysteries of psychology un- der his direction. Dr. Rautman ably instructs classes in mental hygiene and per- as sonnel management. Economics Mrs. Rautman's students of child psychology commute daily to the nursery school for first- hand observations. Mr. Hossick is a newcomer to the department bringing with him experiences gained from study at Michigan and as a telephone pole climber. He deals with experimental and applied psychology. Dr. Creegan, another new man at Carleton this year who has studied at Duke and has traveled in France, teaches educational psychology. THE HDEEP THINKERS,, of Carleton are guided by Dr. Eshleman, chairman of Philosophy, Dr. Phenix, Dr. Phillips, and Mr. Ebersole, all of whom hold other important roles when not philosophizing. Dr. Phenix is the man who leads us in our religious services in Dr. Gouldis absence, Dr. Phillips is the best ad-libber the faculty shows ever pro- duced, and Mr. Ebersole made his name as the fortune teller at the Junior Carnival. Together, these men in their various roles make philosophy one of the most discussed subjects on campus. l13l M-1 f '- -Ji Lf. ggi, ,L V A .

FRANK R. KILLE-Dr. Kille is the man to see as the person with the finger to Carleton's pulse-beat. As Dean of the College, he works with the faculty, the Deans of Women and Men, and the stu- dents. As a teacherof embryology, he maintains his interest in his first love, Zoology. Although to a casual observor, his appearance may seem hurried he still has time for that cheery greeting of his. HAZEL M. LEWIS-To play the role of a charming lady who dictates in an aura of friendly co-operation the social policies for over five hundred women is surely not an easy task. Yet no one is better qualified than Miss Lewis. Her office is always open, even until the wee hours as freshmen can testify, and her sincere and understanding advice is always forthcoming. This year Miss Lewis is assisted by Miss Coulter who also holds the position of guardian of the udate book. I MERRILL E. JARCHOW-Here the iron fist wears a kid gloveg Dean Jarchow has proved himself a real friend despite the pressures of his position dictating a policy of freedom within control and motivation, especially academic motivation, of less ambitious Wfest- Siders. His collegiate attire a.nd crew-cut make a deceptive foil for a keen, mature personality whose closest interests have always centered around student welfare. H21 Y v . ,, iw, s-razxxf-:Az-,-x., .' .

Chemistry Geology ancl Geography WHILE ANXIOUS STUDENTS impatiently look at their watches after Willis has declared the end of the period, Dr. Kaufmann, chairman of the department, bravely carries on. Surprisingly enough no one really minds because his dramatic explanations and wry sense of humor add spice and charm to the elements Dr. Seifertis knowledge of radioactive matter impresses everyone, especially beginners, while Dr, Hart keeps us just as awe-struck with his discussion of qual and quant. Dr. Hammer is the easy-going likeable scientist whether bal- ancing equations or jarring sensitive ears by scratching on the black- board. OUR GEOLOGIST .mn Gi-:OGRAPHER have much in common. Both graduated from Nlichigan as did their predecessor, Dr. Gould. Dr. Wilson, who served as a Lieutenant Commander in the Naval Reserve, was given back to Carleton recently by the O.S.S., and Dr. Stewart taught geologic interpretation to the army engineers at Lehigh University during the war. Back SQCIQIQQY on the CARLETON-front, Dr. Stewart handles the fossils and rocks, and Dr. Wilson encourages those with a wanderlust via field- trips. Between them they claim to know everything about rivers and mountains. Dr. Strong no longer heads Macalester's soc department, but has given Carleton students the benefit of his genuine interest in - his fellow men. His colorful stories of his daughter or the man who sat next to him on the train add to his lectures and help us to see people his way, too. Professor Phelan is an old friend as he has been here since 1928 teaching Rural Soc and Fields of Social VVo'rk, his chief interests. Somewhere, too, he managed to squeeze in a lot of traveling. Mr. Klapp, our criminology specialist, is the Navy's gift to Carleton this year. THOUGH DR. GINGRICH, head of the math department, appears aloofly dignified, he is always ready with a pleasant word and a smile for students. Dr. Wegner, long familiar to Carletonites, gives helpful advice as an advisor to many underclassmen, l DV- NIH-yis infectious g1'in and easy manner no less than his acid wit make him one of the most sought-after teachers. hliss Beasley, new to the Carleton campus, makes her classroom lectures popular by her sincere interest in her students.
