IN MEMORIAM... Robert Oscar Carlson His life was concentrated on two opposites, adventure and quiet relaxation. To most, his outward manner spoke of a shy, quiet young man keenly interested in fine music, quiet and refined yet built on strength and progressiveness. Easy to get along with, he always knew his place and when to speak. Once having gotten to know him, you were friends forever And yet the quietness was hut a part of the man. Equally as strong, though rarely seen, was his adventurous spirit fueled by his love for the sea. The fulfillment of this drive took shape in his interest in boating, and the many hours spent on the water tended to bring him closer to that mother of men , the sea. When he dreamt, as all men do, his thoughts were of the open water and the freedom he found there. His knowledge, unlike that of the classical student, was gained primarily from his inquisitiveness and his searching into problems of technology that interested him. The subjects requiring a plodding, methodical approach were difficult for him but nevertheless he realized their value and gave them his time. Although he is no longer in our immediate company he will remain with each of us as we leave the Institute, for it is our remembrance which takes him with us. 11

CHEMISTRY AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING The Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering has a singular distinction on the campus of Worcester Tech. It is the only department housed in a dungeon with new stair- ways. The old physics lab in the basement was remodeled for the bookstore, but unfortunately the chemists pay as much as everyone else. Chemistry and chemical engineering are extremely important fields in modern industry. With the development of new plastics, rocket fuels, and synthetic materials, to mention a few, the role of chemistry is increasingly prominent. The chemist deals mostly with the discovery and improvement of materials. The chemical engi- neer is interested in the application and development of new materials to industrial uses. The chemical engineer also looks for facilities of production. At Tech, the courses in chemistry and chemical engineer- ing are constantly being revised to keep pace with the ever changing world of science. Facilities for experimental work are also kept abreast of changes with new equipment and the revamping of laboratories. Professor Wilmer LeRoy Kranich Head of Department 12 Seated: Prof. Charles W.
