Behiratinn 0 William Risby Whitehorne, Professor of Physics, who. with love and zeal, has served hates faithfully for many years and showed to countless graduates the inspiring spirit of the true scientist, this 1932 edition of the Bates Mirror is dedi- cated. Teachers of the theory of science are criticized for lack of interest in the practical. applied aspect of their knowl- edge. Professor XYhitehorne never re- ceives this criticism. His process of color photography and his activities as consulting engineer of the Maine Central Railroad reveal him as a man who combines line theory with skillful practice. Although little given to put- ting himself forward in any situation. his life is well filled with activities out- side his chosen profession. His work I in his church has been great and inspir- ing. As a teacher of men, he points the way of knowledge and expects the manhood of his pupils to urge them according to his guidance without special coercion. The senior class ex- presses a deserved gratefulness in dedicating its year hook to this Bates personality. Aw 1 ,ww 1 1 ,uf I H E ' ff , 41, 1 W fi Q 4 . -. 1, , Y ' 1 '
