AIR SCIENCE The Department of Air Science is a unit of the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps. The mission of the Air Force ROTC is to select and prepare students to serve as officers in the Regular and Reserve components of the USAF. To accomplish this end the cadets are trained in leadership and flying. Leadership is instructed in the classroom and on the drill field, where the cadets have a chance to put their instruction into practice. Instruction in flying is done at the local airports. BIOLOGY Late for class. Eight o’clocks; really! Another full day at Barnum. Good morning, Dr. Sweet—olive leather coat, pink shirt? Tripped on the ice—Jim didn’t chop away, spending too much time with grad students and Forsyths. Good morning, Dr. Sames. Fine, How s yours? Barnum 32, on time. There goes Dr. Carpenter, little man in white coat. “But, Dr. Roeder ...” the smoke pouring out of his pipe. Bell, next class, down one flight. How’s Carlyle this morning, Phil? Snowed in? Yes, half the class missing, mostly Carmichael residents. Dr. Curry, you’re excited! The Avena tipped today—great! Now for p’s and q’s with Dr. Warren. No, gave up tomatoes years ago. Wonder how Nancy and Chester can take those roaches. To lunch, to lab, tomorrow to Barnum, toujours. Asst. Prof. Curry; Asst. Prof. Sames; Asst. Prof. Ruck; Prof. Sweet; Prof. Milburn; Prof. Roeder, Chairman; Prof. Warren; Prof. Carpenter; Dr. Roys. 29

Asst. Prof. Baldwin; Asst. Prof. Savage; Prof. Littleton, Chairman; Mr. Groisser; Mr. Carbone; Assoc. Prof. Dunkerley. CIVIL ENGINEERING When surveying the engineering “acres” from the War Memorial Steps, one cannot miss the rustic Civil Engineer¬ ing Building. Here students are prepared for the general practice of Civil Engineering including structures, transpor¬ tation and hydraulics. Words of indeterminate encouragement are doled out by Professor Littleton to the seniors. Mr. Carbone, back from the Army, is trying to move his office into the Kursaal. Fundamentals are taught by the elder statesman of the department, Professor Rice. Surveying by Professor Savage covered many tricks of the trade—Richardson House? In the dark cellar you ' ll find Professor Dunkerly amongst the concrete and asphalt paraphernalia. Next door, Professor Baldwin floats around in the hydraulics laboratory. Asst. Prof. Van Wormer; Prof. Smith, Chairman; Asst. Prof. Atallah. CHEMICAL ENGINEERING Lodged in Pearson Laboratory lay the offices and laboratories of the Chemical Engineering Department. The class ranks were thinned, but not daunted, by the barrage of distillation col¬ umns, grinding machines, and filter processes. We survived the “nonsense” of Professor Atallah on our lab reports. We were in the right ball park for thermo, but Professor Van Wormer just wanted a number to hang our hats on. We de¬ lighted in Dr. Smith punctuating his lectures on the soap industry with the snapping of his “zippo.” The nineteen of the class of ’61, which mostly commuted to the placement office, will look back affectionately at the trials of the hard¬ est course on the hill. Front row: Dr. Stolow; Prof. Gibb; Prof. Wilson, Chairman; Prof. Doleman; Assoc. Prof. Littlefield. Back row: Dr. Illinger; Asst. Prof. Georgian; Prof. Greenwood; Assoc. Prof. Messer; Asst. Prof. Evans; Asst. Prof. Epstein. CHEMISTRY Since 1956, when Dr. Wilson was appointed chairman of the Chemistry Department, there have been many changes in the curricu¬ lum and in the appearance of the Chemistry building. But more apt to be remembered by the class of 1961 are Dr. Stolow and stereoi¬ somerism and n orbitals; Dr. Little¬ field and NV=NV (with a smile); Dr. Messer and free energy; Dr. Doleman and sports; Dr. Gibb and his pipe; Dr. Evans and his book; Dr. Eddy and explosions; and lastly, Dr. Epstein and his refrigerator.
