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
