Invariably Dr. Ann Bourquin ' s morning greeting to sleepy-eyed Home Economic students is ' Shall we take out pencil and paper please?

Dr. William Martin came to Syracuse from M. I. T. to become chairman of the consolidated de- partment of Mathematics, which is rapidly becoming distinguished in the east. One of the outstanding younger mathematicians in the U. S., Dr. Martin attended the Math Congress in Norway, and is a frequent contributor to math publications. He always reminds students, The shortest distance between tr vo points is a straight line. Even though she studied at the University of Edinburgh in Scot- land, Dr. Jane Robb of the College of Medicine has never lost her most typical expression, I ' m from Missouri. Though modest by nature. Dr. Robb is well-known in her field, and is listed in Amer- ican Men of Science and in Who ' s Who in America for her superior work.
