DEDICATION As we the Senior Class of 1953 leave the School of Pharmacy we find ourselves looking back and recalling many of the joys as well as the hard- ships which we have experienced during the past four years. We also remember one man in particular who has been instrumental in helping us reach this stage in our educational career by virtue of his untiring coopera- tion, his sympathetic tolerance towards our views and also by his mature guidance, which he so willingly offered to us. It is therefore with deep pride and admiration that we dedicate the 1953 Terra Mariae to our class advisor. Dr. Gaylord E. Estabrook. Dr. Estabrook received his B.S. degree at Purdue University in 1921. He continued his education at Ohio State University where he was an Assistant in Chemistry from 1921 to 1922 in which year he acquired a M.S. From 1922 to 1924 Dr. Estabrook served as an Instructor in Physics at Georgia Tech and then as Assistant Professor in Physics from 1924 to 1928. Dr. Estabrook resumed his studies as a graduate student at Johns Hopkins University from 1928 to 1930 after which he accepted a position as Assistant in Physics at the University of Pittsburgh from 1930 to 1932 when he was awarded his Ph.D. in physics. From 1933 to 1936 he was associated with the Maryland Academy of Sciences. Dr. Estabrook came to the University of Maryland in 1937 and served as an Instructor in Physics until 1939 when he became Assistant Professor. In 1947 he was promoted to Associate Professor of Physics and then in 1950, Dr. Estabrook was made Professor of Physics at the University of Maryland, the position which he now holds. Dr. Estabrook is a member of the American Physical Society, the Association of Physics Teachers, and also of Sigma Xi, an honorary scientific organization. By dint of the courses which Dr. Estabrook teaches he has been able to impart a firm background in the science of physics to us so that we are now better able to understand many of the new and complex scientific developments of the present era. Consequently, we realize that from his cultural as well as his ' personal guidance to us Dr. Estabiook will always be considered not only as our teacher and advisor but also as our friend.
