Laboiatoiy Luncheon. Professor Ingle caught the scienca department heads in this conference. Dr. UJinston L. Hole Physics and mathematics niiss fllary fllargaret Handel [Uathematics Dr. H. H. Helmick Chemistiy Professor Alfred Ingle Chemistiy Dr. Harvey DeBruine Bioiogy ITliss Geraldine Illoon Bioiogy Cornering Clues in the Laboratory ... The one field in which the student may occasionally have the satisfaction of tracking down a particular clue to knowledge and say with triumph, Gureka — I have it! But even in the laboratory there are secrets beyond the range of the microscope, outside the delicate scope of the balance, unadopted to the slide rule. MAJORS IN CHEMISTRY UJilliam Block, fllarben Carstens, Homer Freese, Henry Hokewill, Berwyn Hildebrandt, Ruth Kem- nitz. BIOLOGY niadeline Dillenbeck, Clara Koerner, Sam Pobanz, Betty Smeja. PHYSICS and MATHEMATICS Gvelyn Boyd, Dorothy Roe. THE SCIENCES A newcomer to the department, Professor Ingle has been dili- gent in maintaining the high standards for which the Glmhurst chemistry courses are reputed in industrial as well as aca- demic circles, flluch of the reputation appears to be a direct reflection upon the fine work of Dr. Helmick, Department head, and his backgrounds in both industrial and educational chemistry. Again signifying the progress that is typical at Glmhurst, the biology laboratory this year added bacteriology to its cur- riculum, rriiss flloon, after special training last summer, teaches the course. Dr. DeBruine ' s courses grow in popularity each year as he skillfully molds his courses to fit the needs of his students. Ask Pete and fTlike. They ' ve been around long enough to know! Under Dr. Hole, physics completes the list and mathematics forms the foundation for the sciences. Professor Sydney H. Kalmbach came mid-semester to complete the list of faculty members, too. flliss Handel, of course, continues as chief drill-master in the mathematical sciences. Among the new courses she offered was one in business math. There was a new elementary physics course, too. 24

CAMPUS EMPLOYEES You Have Seen Their Faces Though the back-stage manipulations that make possible the presentation of the dramatic search for knowledge and truth often pass without much attention, try to conceive of a com- munity of four hundred getting along without the services per- formed by the capable individuals pictured above. You have seen their faces, but do you recognize them? Or do you recog- nize the importance of the work they accomplish every day on the campus? The prosaic provision of steam during cold winter days, the maintenance of campus buildings, the feed- ing of hungry hordes of dormitory students, the conduct of finan- cial affairs of the college family, the assurance that a new group of students will be on hand to replace every graduating class: all these, and many more, tasks are accomplished by those on the panel above. The whole group of non-faculty campus employees is of vital importance, but it defies the limits of space here. BUT DID YOU RECOGNIZE Paul UJichman Chief of Building maintenance. R. G.
