Professor Taub Professor Bailey CHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT From the first valence to the last assay, the chemistry division of the C.U.C.P. faculty has been intimately tied up with the fortunes of the class of ' 53. Each year, through the expert guidance of the chemis- try professors, we gradually increased our knowledge of the chemical sciences. The road was never easy and at times it was quite rocky. But now as we approach our graduation we have come to realize it was a road worrh traveling. Whether you were sitting in the first row or the last row when exam time came around, the entire class took Professor M. Irene Bailey to their hearts. Her task was to impart to the freshman class a basic and firm foundation. Although we would not come into contact with Pro- fessor Bailey again in a teaching capacity it was her course that gave us the key to a future understanding of the more advanced chemistry courses. In the sophomore year we again met our interviewer Professor S. Liberman. However, this time it was in the lecture hall and chem- istry laboratories. Here, in Qualitative and Quantitative Chemistry, we were taught to think for ourselves as we applied the concepts of vol- umetric and gravimetric methods to our work. We came to appreciate Professor Liberman ' s great patience and sincere understanding of the students ' problems. Dr. August DiSomma made his appearance in the educational cycle of the class of ' 53 in our Junior y--ar. At this time we were ex- posed to the intricate and often marvelous ways of organic syntheses. It was apaprent from x the very begining, this was going to be one of the most difficult courses we would have to contend with at C.U.C.P. However with Dr. DiSomma at the reins, we were able to successfully weather the Organic storm, and look forward to mysteries of Pharma- ceutical analysis. Pharmaceutical Analysis, under Professor Taub ' s tutelage is the apex of three years of Chemistry. Here the senior puts to use the knowledge of both Chemistry and Pharmacy. It is the accumulation of organic and inorganic theories and techniques woven into a pattern of delicate precision work. Professor Taub has long been considered to be one of the best men in the country in his field, and it has been the good fortune of the class of ' 53 to benefit from his storehouse of knowledge. ■JH Professor DiSomna Professor Liberman
