QRAMA AND PUBLIC SPEAKING Closely allied with the extra-cur- ricular activities of the college, the department also provides a compre- hensive understanding of the art and practical appliances of speech. All phases of play-production are stressed, thereby engaging more talents. D S. G. G.

(;;;hemistry when Middlebuiy Collci;c is dis- cussed among people who arc strangers to the school, it is usually referred to as a fine institution in the held of mod- ern languages and English. Quite true, but little do such strangers realize the fame of the Middiebury Chemistry Department among those well versed in the field. It is a department both progressive and impressive. Twelve percent of the graduating class of 1940 were chem majors. The curriculum offered by the department includes General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Quan- titative Analysis, Biological Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, as well as a sepa- rate department of Household Chem- istry for the women of the college.

MR. RUSBY. DR. PATTERSON. MR. PRENTICE, MR. FIFE ECONOMICS Pipe and Economics are not synony- mous at Middlebury. Nevertheless, Ec is fifth most popular Midd major. Department Head Harry M. Fife, B.A., M.A., a great teacher and sympathetic adviser, with a wealth of world-wide ex- periences, aids students in analyzing and diagnosing, aiming toward the middle road. He believes that, given the facts, students are fully capable of moving in the right direction. Labor ' s champion, enthusiastic Paul Rusby, B.A., M.A., presents the sociological view. James S. Prentice, B.A., M.A., broadened by oversea contacts, approaches from con- servative angles, expounds historical sig- nificance. John H. Patterson, B.A., M.A., Ph.D., grapples with fundamental principles, ranges from middle to conservative. Theodore H. Zaremba, B.A., gives Ec majors a valuable foundation in accounting. ACCOUNTING Turning out men and women who are capable of doing good bookkeeping is the main object of this course in accounting given by Mr. Zaremba. A knowledge of practical accounting is a necessity in order to under- stand advanced economics and the ramifica- tions of price, supply and demand, etc. The practical aspect of accounting is stressed. Neatness is one of the main requisites of a good accountant, and accuracy goes with it. MR. ZAREMBA U L T Y SEPT 29— THE GIRLS WERE NOT ALL PRESENT AT CHAPEL THIS AFTERNOON DISCOVERED LATER 2J
