SCHOOL OF Chemistry Eager chemists always have some new way to raise a stink. Chemistry Behind that tie is Prof. Williams, in that infernal rat lab. So you think you want to be a chemist? Well, fine, but first let us introduce you to the life and job that will be yours for the four years of undergraduate work in this interesting and revealing profession. Like all other freshmen you are introduced to rat chemistry in your first year. Dean Hunter will conduct the lectures and you the learning; or else. Next on the schedule is Doc Schirmer with the rudiments of analytical chemistry which includes both Quanitative and Qualitative analysis. Here a prospective chemistry major learns to think or right away changes his course of study. Pete Carodemus is the little man who explains the intricacies of carbon atoms in organic chemistry. Abo$ri| here you ' ll be having wild dreams in which you ' re pursued by separatory funnels, distilling flasks, etc. Still with me, bud? And now for the orgy of them all, and it ' s none other than Doctor Pollard. From this dis- tinguished educator you learn the fundamentals of physical and colloidal chemistry. Here ' s where you ' ll put that calculus to use. These aril, merely the highlights of the poor chemistry student ' s life. But seriously, it ' s a mighty fine school of study, and the men who go through thea» four years are well prepared for their life ' s work and profession. First Row, Left to Right: F. I. Brownley. Jr., H. T. Polk, H, L. Hunter, Peter Carodemus. Second Row: F. B. Schirmer, Jr., J. H. Hobson, J. R. Salley, Jr., Williams, G, E. Bruncr, W. E. Grant. Third Row: B. H. Gerritsen, C. M. Guest, A. A.

DR. H. L HUNTER Dean You never will get out of that lab that way, Rat. It ' s easier to fill in the lab manual before class. The study of the elements, don ' t let it explode, Bud. Don ' t breathe too close to that tube — you ' ll ruin the temperature. I MH The scales of justice, only there ain ' t no justice here. You can ' t even guess. ' Lsdii Berry ' s getting quite a kick out of that plaything. You ' d be surprised if it exploded, wouldn ' t you, Harry?
