COLLEGE OF SCIENCE B. fASEBALL was the favorite pastime of Henry Landes, dean of the college of sci- ence, while he attended the University of Indiana. Now his hobby is traveling, and since his graduation he has taken a trip every summer to some place of great scenic or geological interest. Dean Landes studied for his B.S. degree at Indiana, took an M.A. degree from Harvard, and later attended the University of Chicago. At Washington, he has been state geologist for twenty years, and has edited many bulletins. Oysters and Japan are special interests of Trevor Kincaid, oldest in service to the col- lege of science. He has an interest in a large oyster farm, and spends many summers there. His collection of Japanese curios and books on Japan is very comprehensive. While in college — University of Washing- ton — Professor Kincaid was active in debate and athletics — especially wrestling, basket- ball, and track. He was graduated in 1899 and later received an M.A. degree. Writings on insect and marine life have been a few of his contributions to the scientific world. He is a member of Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma Xi. Louise Stevens, only woman student in the department of geology, was selected by the faculty of the college of science as the outstanding student in that field. Miss Stevens has a high scholastic aver- age, having received A ' s in all except twenty hours of her studies, and in those her grades were B and B plus. She is now a senior and spends a great deal of her time in geology field work. ssrii Scientific E-Finhency 16
