PROFS RICHARD D. WHITNEY Dean of Applied Science and Secretary to the Faculty. Long associated with Syracuse, he graduated from this school with many honors and also received his M.S. degree here. Miss Helen Fancher came to Syracuse in 1945 after thirty years of teaching applied arts at the University of California. Her wide practical ex- perience in costume design, draping, pattern making, and millinery make this Connecticut-born prof a fine teacher. A world traveler, Miss Fancher has been across the U. S., and done extensive travelling in Europe. Tennis, skiing, and sailing rank tops on Mr. Richard W. Burkhard ' s list of sports. Making his own furniture is a hobby too, but his most important extracurricular interest is his two sons, aged five and two. Mr. Burkhard graduated from Knox College and Harvard University, and has had teaching experience in both secondary school and college. MISS HELEN FANCHER Young, pretty Miss Ruth P. McCarthy gives our nursing students their first actual contact with caring for patients. Apparently not at all distracted by her recent engagement, she enjoys her many students who break up any monotony that comes with work. She hopes that they will learn to apply this same philosophy to their patients. Mr. Hibberd V. Kline is positive proof that artists are all round people. Golf is his favorite hobby and he has traveled all over the U. S. to try courses everywhere. A former semi-pro baseball player, Mr. Kline heads our illustration department and is well qualified for the task after twenty years at Syracuse, and wide experience with illustrating for nationally read magazines.

I k field )sl-college Ddcitizeo- important FRANK PISKOR, Dean The Dean of Men ' s Office, under Dean Frank Piskor, gave educational and voca- tional counsel to an all-time high of 8,000 men this year — 75 per cent of whom were veterans. Outstanding project of the year for the Office was the erection and management of emergency housing units for veterans under the direction of Louis W. Crawford. Baldwins- ville, Mattydale and the State Fairgrounds were used for veteran ' s living centers until prefabricated quarters on campus could be constructed. The Dean of Men ' s Office also extended full co-operation to MSG, IMA and other independent organizations this year in their reactivation programs which aimed at put- ting the campus back on a traditional peace- time basis. , Dean of Men ' s Secretarial Staff Staff Assistants 21
