QQ' li .- J X W 117 , versity, New York City, had been a member of the A V lx s 'ly LQ Nil , During his connection with the college, Professor Nichols was among the most ardent workers for its welfare. He did not, however, confine himself entirely to things academic, but took keen interest in all the outside activities of the students, so that it soon came to be felt that he was inspired with that something which we all like to call true Dartmouth spirit. With Professor G. F. Hull, who succeeds him as Appleton Professor, he carried on extensive physical research work. Their paper on The Pres- ure Due to Radiation, published last year in the United States by the American Academy of Sciences, Astro-physical journal and Physical Review, and in Germany by the Annalen der Physik, attracted wide attention through- out the scientific world. The best wishes of the college, especially the class of 1905, his last Physics class at Dartmouth, go out to Professor Nichols in his new field of labor.
