FARRINGTON DANIELS “Doc’’ AA I) 2S AX2 Assistant Professor of Theoretical Chemistry B. S., University of Minn., 1910, and M. S., 1911; Ph. D., Harvard, 1914; Assistant in Chemistry, University of Minn., 1910-11; Austin Teaching Fellov , Harvard, 1911-13; Instructor in Theoretical Chemistry, W. P. I., 1914-16; Assistant Professor, 1917- If one were possessed with the idea that a scientist is an absent-minded looking individual, a single glance at “Doc” would rid him of this delusion forever. “Doc’s” ready smile, immac¬ ulate appearance, and pleasant manner have won the hearts of all of us. He lives in a realm of theory, and the enthusiasm which he showed in teaching his subject was contagious to the extent that we were actually guilty of “scab¬ bing” some of his pet experiments—a compli¬ ment to a teacher of Chemists, indeed. JOHN AUSTIN SPAULDING “Johnny” ! 2 K 1 B K A. B., Harvard, 1911, A. M., 1912, and Ph. D., 1917; Sheldon Fellow, Harvard, in Germany, 1912-13; Instructor in German, W. P. I., 1914-16; Assistant Professor of German, 1917- After three years at the Institute, one of them as head of the Department of Modern Languages, Mr. Spaulding was deservedly made a member of the Faculty; but we have not had the opportunity to call him by his new title as he has answered a greater call to service. A leave of absence has been granted Prof. Spaulding for the duration of the war, and he is serving in the army of the country. His welcome back to Tech at the end of the war will be a hearty one.

FRANCIS JOSEPH ADAMS “Rip ’ T B n 2 H Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering B. S., W. P. I., 1904; Graduate Assistant in Electrical Engineering, W. P. 1., 1904-06; Instructor, 1908-16; As¬ sistant Professor, 1917- Prof. Adams we first met in Junior labora¬ tory, where we found him to he an able teacher and a gentleman. It remained for our last year’s work under him to show us what a broadly educated man he is. “Rip” seldom uses notes in his lectures. It seems to he no trouble at all for him to carry in his head sufficient facts and figures to make up a co¬ herent lecture of an hour’s duration. “Rip’s” capacity for work is a marvel. At times we found his problems hard, hut had no come-back as he worked out each one care¬ fully himself, often, to our wonder, reading his slip stick to five places. FRANCIS WILLIAM ROYS “Spider” 2 K 2 H Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering B. S., W. P. I., 1909, and M. E., 1917 ; Instructor in Mechanical Engineering, 1910-16; Assistant Professor, 1917- Prof. Roys was teaching at M. I. T. during the year that we were initiated into Statics and Strength, so he could not take part in the cere¬ mony. From the reports that the Juniors give us, we are not sorry that we avoided his tests and final examinations. This year, however, “Spider” met us in M. E. Lab., and we found in him an able in¬ structor, who credited us with having sufficient sense to run some of the big machines without being watched every minute. We are sorry not to have had more of his instruction. Page 27
