It was Dr. Attix who captained us over the calm waters of Inorganic Chemistry, into the rough seas ot Organic Chemistry, but always his dominating hand and high courage brought us through unscathed and unmarked. Oft times Dr. Attix would deviate from his course to impart to us some of his philosophy, w hich put new ideas in our minds, and changed many of our old ones. Although we may not have the privilege of seeking his wise counsel always, it is with great gratitude that we thank our beloved professor tor making us better men and women, for he has built a foundation that will serve to support us nobly and efficiently. -1 13 I: •

Henry Fisher, Phar.D., M.D. Professor of Pharmacology TJTAVING been with the school since its beginning, Dr. Henry Fisher has taught hundreds of students the intricacies of Materia Medica. Knowing of his unusual relations wild the University, it is with an unbound respect that we look up to him. It is a well-known story among the student body how Dr. Fisher worked hand in hand with Dr. Russell H. Con well, our Founder, at a meager salary, in order to help our Founder realize a noble dream. Dr. Conwell has passed on just as his dreams were coming true, but Dr. Fisher has viewed with a supreme satisfaction the fruits of a noble and unselfish labor. It was in the same respect that Dr. Fisher worked for his students; for he labored in every way to make things easier for us. Not knowing when we shall ever meet again as one. we take this opportunity to salute our “Grand old man of the Faculty. 12

George K. Schacterle, Phar.D., B.S. Professor of General Chemistry A FFECTIONATELY referred to as Shac, Dr. George K. Schacterle has made an everlasting impression upon our memories. Although Shac” did not succeed in making chemists out of all of us, he succeeded in scratching the surface from which there oozes the blood of appreciation. Always ready to explain any difficulty, “Shac” would nonchalantly saunter to the blackboard with a, ‘'New look here, and proceed to analyze our problems. His vivid willingness to teach was surpassed only by our willingness to learn, for Shac” had a way about him that brought something to a student's heart, which made him want to listen. It's no wonder that all of his lectures were ideal ones. If we could employ his power of reasoning in the vicissitudes of life, we would know little of hardships and sorrow. Yes, we will always remember Shac, and although we leave him behind we can still have the satisfaction of knowing that he will be still doing for others, that which he has done for us.
