Ilis interest is not only in the field of chemistry, but also in the success of extra-curricular activities. He is one person who can do two things at once and do both of them well. M.

Alembic FRANCIS JOSEPH O’BRIEN, Ph.C., A.B., A.M., Ph.D Professor of Pharmacy and Mathematics Dr. Francis J. O’Brien is an associate of whom we may well be proud. A graduate of our Alma Mater and New York State College for Teachers, Dr. O'Brien became an instructor in Pharmacy and Mathematics in 1920. Shortly after this appointment, he received the appointment to be the Pharmacy Department head. A brilliant man. Dr. O'Brien received his Ph.D. degree from Fordham University in June, 1940, and we can think of no man more worthy of this honor. He teaches his students with the knowledge and wisdom that only he possesses. J. GEORGE LUTZ, B.S., A.M., Ph.D. Professor of Chemistry Dr. Lutz is a ready, willing, and more than able member of our faculty. In 1925 an A.M. degree was bestowed upon him by Columbia University from whence he went to Westminster College to become Professor of Chemistry. Subsequently he resumed his studies at Columbia University and was awarded a Ph.D. degree. In 1935 he was appointed to the faculty of Union University. It was in 1937 that Dr. Lutz became a member of our faculty. Needless to say, Dr. Lutz is a man of good sense and intelligence which account for the respect and admiration shown him by the students. JOHN EDWARD WOLFF, Ph.C. Instructor, Pharmacy “A friend in need, is a friend indeed.” This old adage may well be said about Mr. Wolff. He has made himself outstanding in his field by being one of us. His interest in outside activities is as great as the interest of any student. Mr. Wolff is an industrious, helpful, and intelli- gent associate. We are fortunate to have him as a mem- ber of our faculty. Page Fourteen
