' ri -FIVIV rt and Science I In this war-torn world the College of Arts and Sciences has its own definite place. It is to graduates of this college that the Government looks for its specialists in a number of fields. Chemists mix little known elements and evolve the substitute materials so sorely needed in both war and domestic consumption. The economist and mathematician link knowledge in the compilation of tables and statistics to be used in interpreting the facts of this war and in pro- ducing a more bountiful post-war world. English majors are writing and editing propaganda for many of the government informational divisions. Graduates of the sociology department may be found aiding their country in the fields of public health, community organization and reloca- tion of both domestic and alien family groups. The Government department graduates are naturals for this time, and because of their understanding of the intricacies of government work and procedure are helping admirably in the coordination of government with private industry. Dr. Pelsor demonstrates the theory of the static machine.
