' T i « WB HHBB FOREWORD Focus your eve down the stairs of human intellect from Kuril Fischer to the embryo chemist, from Pasteur to the scout with a first-aid kit, from Leihnitz to a child with a muddle of figures, from Huygens to the high school physicist, from Newton to anyone who has paused to ponder oyer the attractive force of the moon. Surely, natural scientists are we all ! Some professional, many, amateur — yet, in essence, scientists indeed. For the Lord ' s kingdom has grown up from the shoulders of the Scientist. And each of us has contributed a portion of his vitamins for His perpetual building campaign. Thus, it is with the imprint of this realization fresh upon our brainy tissue that we surrender our Theme to the omnipotent army of The Natural Sciences. ■ .-.

But the Theme was without form and void. And darkness was upon the face of the Symbol of our Theme. But we said: Let there be light! And there was light. And we saw the light, that it was good. And we called the light The Natural Sciences. And with the light the face of our Symbol shone forth the face of Dr. Donald Dearborn. And we called our Symbol Little Doc. And in conclusion we dedicated this book of reminiscences to the Symbol of our Theme, to Little Doc the Scientist — a natural. DR. DONALD C. DEARBORN np ■ MATHEMATICS Perplexing to the layman would be this definition: Mathematics is that science treating of the exact relations existing between quantities of magnitudes and opera- tions, and of the methods by which, in accordance with these relations, quantities sought are deducible from others known or supposed. . . . Yet, every one of us has toyed with Mathematics, from the baby proudly counting his tiny toes to the engineer proudly erecting the colossal George Washington Bridge. Mathematics is the most exact science and its conclusions are capable of absolute proof. Simultaneously, Mathematics is abstract and concrete; for it speculates in the infinite and establishes the finite. Though Mathematics may not directly be pronounced as a Natural Science, without its assistance Astronomy, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology would become sluggish. Einstein has declared: It is Mathematics that offers the exact Natural Sciences a certain measure of security which, without Mathematics, they could not attain. Mathematics is energetic, potent, tireless, and loyal. It is the rock that binds ! THE GUNGA DIN ' OF THE NATURAL SCIENCES.

HOWARD OMWAKE, President Again it is my happy privilege to extend a word of greeting and good wishes to every member of our Catawba family through the latest issue of the Swastika. My first wish is to express my deep appreciation of the tireless efforts of the editorial board in producing this excellent publication and extending the annals of Catawba College for another year. In selecting the theme for this book the editors have set high appreciation on the marvelous work of God as expressed through the handiwork of nature, and have thereby recalled us all to a sense of gratitude for the privilege of living and working in such a wonderful world. May ice all be worthy of this lofty heritage. Sixteen Dr. Allen K. Faust, Dean of Men It is a special pleasure to me to congratulate the Junior Class of Catawba College on the production of the 1939 Swastika. The Committee has had the will and the ability to produce a Swastika of truest worth. This book- lifts the readers above the level of the humdrum in life and permits them to see the true, the imaginary, the artistic and the joyous sides of life. Miss W. Augusta Lantz, Dean of Women I am always interested in the theme which the staff chooses. This year I think- you have been especially fortunate in your selection. Science, derived from the Latin word scientia, means knowledge, learning, experience, exactness, and power. My wish for the junior class is that they may become more interested in scientific methods of study and apply this principle to whatever thing they may undertake in the future, and realize that almost anything is possible for those who possess the patience, the devotion to work; and the best interest in the good of the human race — the basic virtue which actuates every true scientist.

Twenty-three ASTRONOMY Shout to the distant hills, I am not a physicist, nor a chemist, nor a biologist! Declare impetuously to the Natural Science professor, I hold no interest for those subjects! But never, never whisper to your best friend, I am not an astronomer. For, listen ! First, Man was created. Then Man commenced to reason : What makes the plants to grow and fall? Ah ! — Perhaps the change of season ! Step out into the open air, be it day or night. Look to the north, then to the east, to the south, and to the west. Point your eyes towards heaven and down towards hell. Now meditate on what you have seen. . . . Welcome, astronomer! You have passed the initiation. We must realize that, professionally, the pursuit of astronomy encircles not only a study of the heavenly bodies with reference to their distances, dimensions, move- ments, physical characteristics, and the laws which govern them, but also the endeavor to determine both their past and future. Therefore, though second of all the sciences in exactness, astronomy is imaginative, idealistic, invigorating, and ageless. THE SHANGRI-LA OF THE NATURAL SCIENCES.

Out of Our College Album i : .i ' 4ft K 1 1 P H Y S I C S Scientifically quoting: Physics is the science of phenomena of inanimate matter involving no chemical changes, comprising mechanics, magnetism, electricity, light, heat, and sound. In essence. Physics is the knowledge or science of everyday life; for tlie laws and principles of Physics govern our actions day after day. The Natural Sciences have been nursed from infancy, through adolescence, to their present state of adulthood by an aged, but sincere, exacting, and open-minded Mother. Just a few centuries in the past She was still a virgin, nicknamed by Her disciples Natural Philosophy. But. by observing the condition that Her responsibility was gradually becoming overbearingly great, these disciples realized that She was destined to bear children for the comfortable preservation of Her objective. And eventually the children were born — by name Chemistry. Geologv. Botanv. and Zoology. The Mother ' s name was Physics. And at present Physics wheels powerfully forward in behalf of mankind ' s progress. THE DYNAMIC MOTHER OF THE NATURAL SCIENCES.

It is through extra curricular activities — of the students, by the students, and for the students — that the call may be obeyed. Enacting a mock international congress before an assembly of Catawban scholars. the members of the International Relations Club rallied to the call of self-initiative — and marched home with the bacon of benefits.

For Individual CD 3 CO o (D o (D CO CHEMISTRY What Natural Science is collectively vital for a farmer fertilizing his fields, for a physician preserving health, for a cook preparing a balanced meal, for a manu- facturer producing high grade rubber, paper, glass, steel, or textiles, and for even an artist painting a picture? A knowledge of Chemistry (Liroad or narrow) must be the possession of eacli of these laborers. Ever since our days as curious children, we have pounded into our minds the questions: Why is one substance different from another? Why is helium different from hydrogen ? Gasoline different from water ? Salt different from sugar ? The internal composition of gases, liquids, and solids holds the key to the answer. It is the science of Chemistry that endeavors to secure the key — at times bv experi- mentation, more often merely by rationalization: for the ultimate particles of matter are invisible through even the most powerful microscope. Thus, recently, the chemist has favored the study of the subsequent changes which these particles undergo when they are combined or separated. The astonishingly beneficial result has been modern industry ! Firstly. Chemistry is a sleuth. Yet. more important to us. Chemistry is a manu- facturer. THE INDUSTRIAL MAGNET OF THE NATURAL SCIENCES.

The crusading- Elon Christians had been tomahawked. Now nothing- could mar the completion of the designs except a small den of bears — who had already suffered fractures inflicted by the Christians. Why worry over disabled bears? Fear of overconfidence ? Perhaps. Be that as it may. On that gloomy November afternoon the Indians grew jittery and quit before our tearful eyes. Our team deadlocked with Elon for the championship. Therefore, the ' 38 season surely must be declared a success — but a most disheartening grade of success.

Winning eight conference games and losing six, the Indians staggered into the lower brackets of the first division.

Homer Yearick — of the get-out-in-front-and-stay-there attitude — saved the hide of our weak middle distance department.

Botany, zoology, and human physiology had been established as branches of knowledge many years in the past. Yet. there was no unifying force for these basically related sciences. Suddenly, the doctrine of evolution, expressed in subdued tones since Aristotle conceived the theory of development, cried out for the consideration of all scientists. Its cry served to bring together in search o f common problems and princi- ples the botanist, the zoologist, and the physiologist. Biology was born — the general science of life. In pursuit of the answers concerning plants and animals Biology lunches on the fruits of Physics and Chemistry. But She settles Her debts promptly. The newly acquired vigor assists in Her endeavor to cure the diseases of mankind. In despera- tion for life She may rush to the operating table; for under oatli She has avowed to preserve the human race. THE SAVIOUR OF THE NATURAL SCIENCES.
