BOYNTO RALPH D.CASE LWAYS believing strongly in the possibilities for Women in medical research, DR. RUTH BOYN- 'roN has charge of the Student Health Service. Hundreds of students daily visit the Health Service for examina- tion or treatment, and a number of beds are maintained in the upper floors for more serious cases. Gardening and serving as secretary of the American Student Health Association do not keep Dr. Boynton too busy to carry on med- ical research to improve university con- ditions. HAIRIXIAN RALPH D. CASEY of the Department of Iour- nalism has recently returned from a sabbatical leave to England where he studied under a Guggenheim fellow- ship. Mr. Casey, one of the few jour- nalists ever to receive the fellowship, employed his leave in reseach concern- ing the propaganda methods of British political parties. It was in this favored country that he Hrst began his journal- istic career as a reporter on the Seattle Poxz-I11tell1'gezzcc1'. Besides his being recognized as a fine teacher of journal- ism, Mr. Casey is well known as an active journalist. He is at present edi- tor of the l0lll'71IIIIi577Z Qrmrterly. ELL KNOWVN as a champion of agricultural education, VV'AL'I'ER C. Corrliav, dean of the De- partment of Agriculture, is an expert on sheep husbandry for the United States Department of Agriculture. Numerous books and bulletins on live- stock production bear Dean Coifeyls name on the title page. In 1911, he served as a special agent on the Federal Tariff Board, and some years later was called to Washington as a member of President Coolidgeis Agricultural Con- ference. Dean Coffey is a member of the American Association for the Ad- vancement of Science, Alpha Zeta, Sigma Xi, and Sigma Alpha Epsilon, academic fraternity. Miss IQATHARINE I. DENsFoRD, Professor of Nursing and Director of the School of Nursing, is probably the best person to see if you feel as though you are going to fall apart, because besides her duties here at Minnesota she is the chairman of the American Nurses Council and first vice president of the American Nurses Association. Miss Densford first taught history, but during the VVorld VVar, she took a course at the Vassar training camp and has since been more active in nursing than in history. it X it Egg, , new f it af: Q?

ZMQW DR.HAROLD DIEHL EDWARD M. FREEMAN f .,.i -' 7- K s' ' ' K, 5 , A 2 HAROLD S. DIEHL, dean of the Medical Sciences, is the author of one of the University's most popular text books, Healzhful .Ll-Zllillg, used in the preventive medicine course. The book was written, Dean Diehl said, for those who think too much about their health but lack knowledge of what is good or bad for them in the light of modern medical experiencef, In addition, Dean Diehl said that in his book he attempted to popularize medi- cine. It is his contention that people do not worry about things they under- stand, but that the unknown fills them with fear and apprehension. AN EXAIXIPLE of local boy makes good is Dean ED- XVARD M. FREEINIAN. Dean Freeman not only edited the 1898 Gopher himself, but is the only college dean to have been born in St. Paul, where his Col- lege of Agriculture, Forestry, and Home Economics is located.

He is a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and a member of Sigma Xi and Phi Beta Kappa. MINNESOTA is fortu- nate in having for the Dean of its Law School EVERETT FRAsER. Dean Fraser is also a reporter on torts for the Ameri- can Law Institute, and he has gained the reputation of being the best quali- fied man in the country in common law. The dean has written many books on the law of property. A love of the out-of-doors, developed in his boyhood home on Prince Edward Island, mani- fests itself in his liking for camping, hunting, and Hshing. Dean Fraser re- ceived his position two years after coming here to teach in 1917. STUDENTS who have business with CARROLL GEDDES call him by his first name, for he graduated only ten years ago. Young as he is, Carroll fills one of the most important and de- manding positions in the student affairs oHice. As financial adviser to student organizations, Carroll lends his assist- ance to fraternity and sorority house managers and treasurers, for whomuthe plural of God is Geddesf' Whether it be the planning of a budget for a frater- nity kitchen, or advice in the purchase of a new house, Carroll is ready and willing to be of assistance at all times.
