National Defense classes and those closely connected with the warm emergency occupied Dr. R. E. Berry, director of adult education, and his staff this year. Hundreds of men and women enrolled for special day and evening work on the home campus and at the Chaffey airdrome. The program included the federal groups of Off-Reservation-In-Service Training Classes, in machine shop, parachute packing, leather work, aircraft engines, airplane construction. Adult national defense classes, training for work in the aircraft fac- tories, operated around the clock through the winter months in the machine shops. Classes which were definitely related to the war effort were the only ones offered in the regular evening school. These included PBX; business classes in typewriting, bookkeeping, ofiice machines, shorthand; Spanish; orange and lemon packing, sewing, woodshop, mechanical drawing. A series of lectures and demonstrations in agriculture, teaching new gardeners how to raise vegetables, chickens, and rab- bits were followed by a series of demonstrations by members of the home economic department on methods of food preservation — hot water bath canning, pressure cooker canning, and dehydration. Red C ross home nursing classes continued throughout the year. In May classes in English and agriculture were developed with a bi-lingual faculty for the group of Mexican Nationals brought into the district to help with the citrus harvest.

Administrators Dean Pearl E. Clark found the women eager for information con- cerning their place in the war effort and counseled them throughout the year. She served also as adviser for the Associated Women Students and the Young Women ' s Christian association. With Dean Hall she took over some of Mr. Flum ' s classes in mathematics. Dr. Clark was awarded her doctor ' s degree at the University of Southern California this spring although she completed the work during the summer. She was congratulated by members cf the college faculty at a tea in her honor. Dean Walter A. Hall had a busy year as he served as liaison officer for the college reserves of the armed forces on the campus, and acted as adviser for all men who wished in- formation about the different branches of the service. When Mr. Flum left he taught his engineering classes and became adviser for the tennis sguad and Engineers club. (above) Dr. Pearl E.

Faculty Meets Challenge Chaffey college faculty dedicated themselves to the task of offer- ing as much higher education as possible to young men about to enter the armed forces this year, to those men and women who reguired special training for defense industry, and to those whose long-span plan included training at the universities. To this end they studied and made every adjustment of teaching assignment and change of course. When members of the teach- ing staff left to join the service or enter defense industry, they closed the ranks and carried on so that no class was discontinued because of lack of teaching personnel. College faculty mem- bers have served the cause of higher education and the con- tinuation of the American way of life in a company as loyal and as devoted as those whom they honor in the country ' s service. The role of eight members who are on military leave for the duration of the war is one which they respect. Faculty Service Roll Captain Paul J. Birkofer United States Army Air Corps Sgt.
