LTY Many an engineer has seen in awe demonstrations of Dean Emeritus Chandlers spectacu- lar mental math. The slide rule? He memorizes it. Historian Perkins loves to travel, makes his courses vivid with first-hand descriptions of the lay of the land. Life's just one big thriller to the English department's Dr. Russell and he catches it on film. Swinging like that, Philoso- pher Kjerstad should be 18-6 ahead. Another who fiddles with movie cameras is Psych Prof. Telford. lt's an absorbing task just to load one, Mechanical Engineer Gilpin's hobby is fine measurements, the more delicate the better. l-le loves to play with gauges and gadgets. Physi- and Pharmacologist Brown has his golf clubs right in the lab, ready for the first sign of green. Meanwhile he gets in his practice. When a man's a chemical en- gineer, even his hobby is likely to prove valuable. Prof, Koth has an abnormal interest in North Dakota lignite. ln this test he dries it.

Z Founded in 1905, the school has grown considerably since the time of its gradu- ating class of five in 1911. Its size, however, is religiously kept down as its accrediting is religiously kept up. Each year the school gives a stiff entrance exam to all pre-medic students to determine who may enter the advanced work. The school is a college of basic medical sciences offering the first two years of the study of medicine, and therefore does not award the MD degree. However, the UND school ranks high in the nation, and its graduates may be found in all the top flight U. S. medical schools where they have been accepted to continue their edu- cation. High up in the gables of Science hall are the many guinea pigs, mice and rab- bits which medical students use for ex- periments, The animals, who live a life of captivity in order that human lives may be saved through medicine, are cared for by Fred Campus, custodian of the build- ing, and once a professional animal trainer. - 24 school of M E ll I C Slender, bespectacled, possessor of a photo- static memory, Dean Harley E. French is head of the school of medicine. Decendant of early New England settlers, the Dean teaches classes in anatomy during working hours when he isn't occupied with the administrating of North Da- kota's only school of medicine. Wherever you find Dean French you will also find Tucker, the Dean's little black and white wire haired terrier. Tucker and gardening are the Deans prime hobbies.

'fi' 'TL G l 0 s L U d o W Y WEL LNGIELSKD-SUYICKI D0 EMEJ EUHUPW FACULTY After looking at engineers' drawings all day, Prof. Hein seeks relief in the artistic pat- terns of his colorful stamp al- bum. Strictly a nonfconformist in this hobby business is Econo- mist Hagen, Whose favorite pas- time is farm journals. For beloved, soft-spoken French Prof. Haxo the huge stamp collection seems a pecul- iarly fitting accompaniment. And for some inexplicable reason We are just as certain that if English Prof. Feinstein were to play anything, it would be an oboe. Now here's a hobby really calculated to make Prof. Schley forget all about finance, Historian Morley is a linguist of note, relaxes, of all things, by reading Polish papers. This is the season when the state supervisor of distributive education becomes Hager the Hunter, ready for an early start. Electrical Engineer O Brien s hobby of toying with miniature radio transmitters may turn out to be a major contribution to military and civil communica- tion. He still Won't talk, though.
