BIGLCDGY Of outstanding importance this year in the department of biology was the founding ofa Blood Bureau by means of which blood of students was typed. This was a valuable defense effort as well as an aid to hospitals and physicians. This year also saw the extension of the campus planting program. ln i939 the trustees set aside a tract of 22 acres for the establishment of an arboretum and bird sanctuary. Roads and a large pond have been built, and a border of several thousand small trees and shrubs has been planted. Besides maintaining propagating nurseries, the department supervises the selection of plants from woods and fields, in the endeavor to ultimately have growing in one place as many native trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants as possible, thus forming not only a place of beauty, but a living outdoor laboratory for the study of plants and animals. Campus landscaping is under the sponsorship of this department. ln April the biology department, in cooperation with the geology, physics, and chemistry depart- ments acted as host to l6O high school science students on Science Day. Right here is the heart, explains Buzz Braithwoite to biology majors Addie Statler, Evelyn Heminger, and Betty Olsen . . . Prof. Mose ley studies tree rings, surrounded by his collections . . .
