Dove Chomeau expounds to Jon Candy and Herb Binswanger on the inherent value of the moon. Astronomy After a year ' s absence. Astronomy was reborn this year at Carleton. Managing the revitalization process was Dr. Robert T. Mathews. Along with the elementary astron- omy course. Dr. Mathews devoted his time to redesigning the problems offered students and renovating the fine equipment in Goodsell Observatory, most of which had fallen into disuse. If all goes well. Dr. Mathews intends to launch a research program of measuring the separation of double stars, but he feels that the emphasis should be placed on making the Observatory equipment available for the stu- dents rather than on research. In keeping with this goal, part of the program of the Stargazers , a curriculum club of about 15 students with a zealous interest in astron- omy, was a monthly Observatory Open House where the public was invited to hear lectures, view heavenly bodies through the telescope, or attend a show in the Planetarium. At their biweekly sessions, the club does further study in astronomical topics and then observes heavenly bodies through the various instruments. Outside of the academic astronomy work, the college continued the maintenance of a standard clock and a rain gouge that is measured daily. Stardust via telescope . . . Mr. Mathews and Leo Nelson.

Physics The trend toward growth and improvement in both laboratory and teaching facilities of the Physics Depart- ment has been advantageously continued during the past year. The staff, augmented by Dr. Reitz, has introduced a new course which is designed to acquaint students who do not plan to major in a scientific field with the concepts of physics. Students, whether enrolled for one course or majoring in physics, find the classes not only aimed at standardized curriculum but also attentive to experimenta- tion. Research equipment, largely provided through grants which the department has received in the past years, pro- vides opportunities for such projects as the study of nu- clear magnetic resonance and x-ray diffraction. Chemistry Chemistry when used as a means to satisfy the science requirement is sometimes regarded as a hurdle to leap in the race for a complete education. Each year, how- ever, the staff, fortified with patience, shielded with a sense of humor, and armed with an ability to convey their knowledge, succeeds in inspiring students to the challenges of the field. Besides a well-equipped laboratory in the normal sense, the department, supplied with grants amounting to $3,500 from various companies, has purchased specialized apparatus which is used in research. It has also been certified by the American Chemical Society— on aid to students when applying for graduate study or a job. PHYSICS DEPARTMENT Dr. Robert Reitz, Mr. Robert Mathews Dr. William Butler, Dr. Frank Verbrugge, Up and atom: chemist Dick Miller tries to moke water take the upward grade. CHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT Dr. Arild Miller, Dr. Ramette, Dr. Hellmut Penner in the lab.
