SORRY! An ardent follower of the varsity football team has caught a couple of errors in the 1946 season's statistics published in last month's BULLETIN. The correct scores of the first two games were: Buffalo 40, Moravian 7 and Buffalo 28, RPI 13- This, of course, changes the totals to Buffalo 224, Opponents 91. GREAT BOOKS COURSE Dr. Nathaniel Cantor, LLB '29, head of the Sociology Department, and Dr. Oscar A. Silverman, professor of English, will be leaders of an adult-reading project in Great Books, which begins in February at the Buffalo Public Library. The library is a co-sponsor of the course with the Grosvenor Library and the University. With the semi-final figures of the 1946 Alumni Fund comes the gratifying fact that while other fund raising programs all over the country fell behind their quotas, our University's Fund approximated last year's record. The Hundreds Club membership increased to 32 without any personal solicitation, the club being composed of those who give one or more hundreds of dollars during the Fund year. While the Class Agents in every division are to be congratulated on their splendid record in the face of unsettled business conditions, those in the Law, Medical, Education and Library Science groups should be especially pleased that their divisions topped last year's gifts. Many alumni who cannot give large gifts due to various circumstances do not yet realize that a gift of one dollar or a few dollars will place their names on the annual Honor Roll until the time when they are able to give more substantially. We are proud of our many dollar givers who reflect the true spirit of alumni support: regular giving in any amount. Praise from Pennsylvania Collegiate Registrars. Elevation: Of Dr. Herman J. P. Schubert to the directorship of the Veterans' Administration Testing and Guidance Center on the University campus. Dr. Schubert was counselor and assistant director under Dr. Edward S. Jones, who has resigned because of pressure of duties in the Bureau of Personnel Research, of which he is also the head.

No. 10 1947 The medical symposia preceding the Centennial Celebration last fall received high praise in a recent issue of the Pennsylvania Medical Journal. A long editorial referred to the "excellence and practical value" of the papers presented, the "friendliness and good will" and the "well nigh flawless" arangements. "It is impossible," says the editorial, "to the conclusion that a university capable of conceiving and executing such an admirable event will continue its existence in like 'vein' and remain an adornment to higher education in America." escape Midnight on Dec. 31 meant retirement for two Buffalo veterans of the N. Y. State Supreme Court bench. They were Justices Alonzo G. Hinkley, LLB '98, on left and Almon W. Lytle, LLB '03, right. State law requires retirement on reaching age 70. STUDENT PHOTO CONTEST Student camera fans are polishing up their lenses in anticipation of a photo contest which will be held this winter under auspices of the General Alumni Board. The event is a project of the board's Committee on Activities, of which Mrs. Bertha Nax Hogue, BA '39, is chairman. Prizes will be donated by area photo supply dealers. DISCUSSES FAMOUS REFORMER Hugh Peters, famed preacher and reformer of 17th Century England and America, is the subject of a new issue of the University of Buffalo Studies. Author of the 71-page publication is J. Max Patrick, assistant professor of English. High in Medical Test Buffalo Medical School alumni and students scored the highest record in the U. S. in the examinations conducted by the National Board of Examiners last May. The report on results was published recently in The Diplomate, board publication. Of the 26 candidates who rated highest in the examinations, eight were from the University, while Tufts had four and Columbia three. FELLOWSHIP ESTABLISHED A fellowship in the Department of Chemistry has been established by the Niagara Sprayer & Chemical Division of the Food Machinery Co., Middleport. It will permit study of organic compounds. �2 Alumni Bulletin REPORT OF THE CHANCELLOR (Abstract) To tbe Council of the University of Buffalo: I have the honor to submit the report of the chancellor for the academic year 1945-46: The year under review has been dominated by two events: the influx of former members of the armed forces under Public Law No. 346, known as the G. I. Bill of Rights, and the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the University of Buffalo. RETURN OF THE VETERANS In the academic year 1944-45 the total number of veterans enrolled was exactly 100. This small sample enabled the University to test the validity of its preliminary arrangements and to make the necessary changes in them before it was called upon to deal with large numbers. The graduate professional schools have continued to adhere to the entrance dates established for the war period. The majority of the undergraduate schools, however, have permitted veterans to enter at intervals of approximately two months. By this policy no veteran has been kept waiting longer than a few weeks before he could resume his education. In order that these divisions might accept new students in mid-semester it became necessary to organize special short courses in several of the basic subjects, such as English and mathematics. These courses were generally of the refresher type. These provisions laid a heavy additional burden on certain officers of the University. The work of the Office of the Registrar and of the Personnel Office in particular was increased several fold. In spite of the efforts of the Council and the administration to meet the needs of these agencies for additional assistance, they continue to be undermanned and overtaxed. The instructors in those departments which developed short intensive courses for veterans also assumed an additional obligation beyond their normal teaching duties, and the extensive reorganization of the machinery of enrollment and instruction throughout the University entailed an enormous amount of committee service, a service which has continued throughout the year. In my report of a year ago I stated that no one could guess how many veterans—or, indeed, how many non-veteran students— would be in attendance in 1945-46. The budget adopted by the Council in June, 1945, was based on a conservative estimate of the enrollment in both categories of students. The new academic year had hardly begun, however, before it became apparent that the enrollment would be much greater than had been anticipated. As a result it became necessary to establish quotas for each of the subsequent registration dates of the second semester and of the Summer Session. Number of Veterans Enrolled The total number of veterans enrolled in all divisions of the University during the year 1945-46 was 2511. The largest concentration was in the College of Arts and Sciences which enrolled 894. For statistical purposes, all students of engineering have been classified as belonging to the College. Somewhat more than a third of the College's 894 veterans were engineers. The School of Business Administration enrolled 602 veterans. Millard Fillmore College enrolled 571- The School of Law enrolled 94. The veteran enrollments in the Schools of Dentistry and Medicine consisted of students who still were or had recently been members of the Army Specialized Training or the Navy V-12 programs, and amounted to 127 and 91 respectively. Total University Enrollment For the purpose of showing the relative magnitude of the veteran enrollment, I present at this point the figures showing the enrollment in all divisions of the University. The total enrollment was 7045. The total enrollment in the year 1944-45 was 4641. The increase was approximately 52 per cent. But an analysis of these figures is necessary to show the real size of the additional burden which the University undertook to carry and the peculiar incidence of these new responsibilities. Although the total enrollment increased only 52 per cent, the enrollment in the full time day divisions of the University increased 122 per cent. There were 3370 students registered in these divisions as against 1598 during the preceding year. Of these 3370 students 1941, or more than 57 per cent were veterans. Still more indicative of the type of problems which certain faculties had to face are the percentages of increase in four of the schools of the University. The registration in the College of Arts and Sciences increased 148 per cent, in the School of Pharmacy 149 per cent, in the School of Law 232 per cent, and in the School of Business Administration 395 per cent. Problems of Staffing In previous reports I have discussed the shortages of trained persons in various technological occupations and professions which have resulted from the Government's policy during the war years. In no other field have the effects of this policy been more painfully felt, in no other field has the policy produced a more serious handicap to the immediate future development of American efficiency, than in the teaching profession. The shortage of properly qualified teachers at all levels of education, public and private, has become a major national problem. Preparation for university teaching is a long process. This country now has to begin again, practically at scratch, to produce a new generation of young people who will be equipped to enter the profession of college teaching. There will be for several years to come a critical shortage of teachers for the universities of the land who will be properly prepared for their tasks. The officers of the University became aware early in the year under review that many new members would have to be added to the instructional staff. Deans and department heads began early in the fall of 1945 to locate possible candidates for appointment. The process of appointment has gone on uninterruptedly throughout the year. Many more instructors will have to be added. Comments on New Appointees A word is in order as to the character of this new instructional force and as to the sources that have been tapped to secure it. Young instructors of both sexes compose the vast majority of the new appointees. Many of them were, before appointment, graduate students whose graduate study had not been completed but who were willing to interrupt it to secure teaching experience. Many are veterans who have had teaching experience in Army or Navy training programs, or who have had technical assignments in the service which are judged to fit them for undergraduate instruction. Some are our own graduates whose qualifications are known to department heads and who are on their way to advanced degrees. Some are residents of Buffalo engaged in other professional pursuits who are willing to serve the University on a part time basis. In the main the University's need for additional teaching service has been met. A few departments have been obliged temporarily to carry overloads, but not for long. But, like every other institution, the University of Buffalo is faced with a responsibility which it has not had to assume in previous years. This large corps of young instructors, most of whom have not had full professional training, must receive more guidance from the older members of the staff than is commonly bestowed upon neophytes. Arrangements must be made for them to complete the training f^r their profession on something like an apprenticeship basis. All departments are alert to these obligations. It is still too early to appraise the total performance of the new recruits. For the most part it appears to have been surprisingly satisfactory. Veteran Admissions Policy Early in 1946 it became possible to form a rough estimate of the extent of the demand for higher educational opportunities which would be made on the University. It was, in fact, evident that the demand would be practically unlimited. In consequence, it was obvious that the University must decide how much it could enlarge its operations, and to what groups of persons it owed primary consideration. Basic to any decision was a calculation of the ultimate capacity of existing physical facilities. It was already known, as the result of the war experience, that the quarters of the Schools of �January. 3 1947 Medicine and Dentistry could accommodate few if any more students than the numbers presently in attendance. There were also definite and known limits to the size of the student body that the School of Law could serve in the buildings which it uses. But nobody knew the capacity of the campus plant; and the campus divisions were the ones which were receiving, and would continue to receive, the bulk of the applications for admission. A careful survey of the campus buildings was accordingly instituted. The results were surprising. It was found that if by accurate scheduling all campus classrooms and laboratories should be used throughout the day and into the early evening, and if additional laboratories should be equipped, the campus could accommodate approximately four times as many students as had ever been in attendance in any pre-war year. Governor's Conference The survey was hardly finished, when Gov. Dewey summoned the heads of all the col leges and universities of the state to Albany to consider with him and with the officers of the State Education Department the arrangements which would be necessary to accommodate the veteran and non-veteran students. The institutional representatives wete requested to revise their estimates of capacity upward, and to propose other devices by which all of those desiring higher education could obtain it. On the basis of the University of Buffalo's previous study of its own potential capacity, its representative had been able to report to the conference that it would guarantee to accept four times as many undergraduates as it had served before the war, and that it would place no upper limit on the number of part time evening students it would serve through Millard Fillmore College. As far as is known no other institution in the state agreed to increase its enrollment by so great a percentage. Geographical Boundaries The Governor's Conference made it clear to the officers of the University that, although the institution had embarked on an unprecedented program of expansion, it still could not take care of all those who would wish to enroll before the end of the current calendar year. Therefore, on the recommendation of the deans, the Committee on General Administration of the Council in March, 1946, approved the following policy governing the admission of new students for the remainder of the academic year and for the first semester of 1946-47. 1. The University should canvass the secondary schools of the Buffalo area for estimates of the number of high school graduates who would seek admission in the summer or fall of 1946, and should reserve places for this number. 2. The University should accept up to the limit of its capacity all qualified veterans resident in the Eighth Judicial District and in two counties outside the district which belong to the area which the University commonly serves. 3. Other veterans, of exceptionally high academic rating, not residents of this area may be accepted in numbers not to exceed -3 per cent of the total enrollment, if places remain after the groups mentioned in 1 and 2 have been taken care of. 4. The University should neither raise nor lower its customary entrance standards, but should apply them consistently as in the past. Preparations for 1946-47 In conformity with this policy, the registrar, the deans and faculties of the several divisions and the comptroller dealt with the problems of admission during the remainder of the year under review, and made preparations for the more difficult period which would begin in the fall of 1946. The capacity of the campus was assumed to be approximately 5000; and it was assumed that the capacity would be reached. Plans were made, (1) to move the psychology laboratories from Science Hall to the basement of Crosby Hall and to construct and equip new and enlarged facilities at that location, (2) to construct and equip new physics laboratories in the quarters vacated by psychology in Science Hall, (3) to construct and equip additional chemistry laboratories in Foster Hall, (4) to recondition half of the second floor of Edmund Hayes Hall and to install the Office of the Registrar there as soon as the Engineering Building is completed, (5) to equip the top floor of the Lockwood Memorial Library for reading room use. At the time of the writing of this report nearly all of these physical alterations had been completed. Throughout the spring and early summer the search for the additional faculty members who would be needed went forward. Faculty committees worked out problems of scheduling. The testing and guidance services ministered to the steadily rising flood of new applicants. In short, the campus divisions put themselves in position to meet the Oct. 1 deadline. Despite all that the officers of the University have been able to do, it is plain that some veterans resident in the territory which the University has set out to serve are going to be disappointed. The veterans' choices of courses and curricula probably cannot be met in all cases. Quality of Veteran Students Neither the Council nor the faculties have ever questioned the desirability of undertaking this extraordinary program of expansion, notwithstanding the difficulties it entails. It represents the least the University could do in partial payment of the debt which all its members owe to the former members of the armed forces of the United States. But in the beginning some had misgivings concerning the fitness of many veteran applicants for academic work. All such misgivings are now entirely dispelled. The testimony of instructors and advisers is unanimous—the same testimony is offered on every college campus—that never have they had to do with a body of students of equal ability and earnestness. The percentage of failures is much smaller than had been expected, smaller than in pre-war student bodies. The veterans have raised, not lowered, the intellectual level of the universities. Future Size of the University It seems certain that if additional numbers can be accommodated the enrollment will increase still further up to the year 1948. After that time many of the beneficiaries of the G. I. Bill of Rights will have finished their course and a decline will set in. It will probably accelerate through a period of two or three years until all of the veterans have gone. Then what? No one can now be sure. But it seems more than probable that the university population of the country will not again return to the level of 1939. The conclusion of government experts and others who have studied the question on a national scale is that university and college enrollments, after the veterans have passed, will be stabilized at a point not far below the peak of the years 1947-48. If this conclusion is accepted the University of Buffalo must adapt itself to a different conception of its size and character. It will have ceased to be a small university. It must face permanent administrative arrangements appropriate to a large institution. It must add substantially to its physical facilities. These questions deserve the early and earnest attention of the Council. They are already being studied by the deans and faculties. IMPROVEMENT OF SALARIES In 1932 and in 1933 the salaries of the full time teaching and administrative staffs suffered two reductions totalling 17-/^ per cent. The income of the University had at that time been sharply reduced as the result of the depression. In the spring of 1946 it appeared that the University could count for several years on both a stable and a large enrollment. The Committee on General Administration, therefore, authorized the chancellor to include in the budget estimates for the year 1946-47 provisions for both general and special increases. The general increases applied to all permanent full time members of the faculties of all divisions except the Medical School, which had already been dealt with. The budget containing these provisions was adopted by the Council on June 29, 1946. The following effects of this action are worth recording: 1. Higher minimum salaries were established for all ranks; minimums higher than those existing before 1932. 2. The salary of every individual who was a member of the teaching staff in 1932 was restored to at least the amount he received in that year. 3- Certain gross injustices which had resulted from the relative inflexibility of the old salary scale were corrected. THE NEW SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING A year ago the Council, acting through a special committee under the chairmanship of Mr. Myron S. Short, had raised from friends of the University funds for the erection of a laboratory building for mechanical engineering. It was already evident that more students would enroll both for the curriculum in mechanical engineering and for the curriculum in industrial technology than had originally been expected. These curricula were being administered in the College of Arts and Sciences. By January, 1946, the enrollment in this field already exceeded the estimate of at- �4 tendance for the academic year beginning in 1948. There were numerous difficulties in conducting so large an operation in professional education through the administrative machinery of the College of Arts and Sciences. In view of this situation the Committee on General Administration, acting for the Council, voted on Mar: 5, 1946, to establish a School of Engineering as a separate administrative unit of the University, and appointed Prof. Paul E. Mohn as the first dean. Subsequent events have proved that the action was both necessary and timely. New students have continued to pour in. Additions to the staff and equipment far more extensive than had been contemplated will be demanded. THE DIVISION OF STUDENT HEALTH, PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND ATHLETICS Having reached the age at which administrative officers must, under the Council's rules, relinquish their administrative posts Dr. Charles H. Keene gave up his duties as director of health and physical education for men in June, 1946, but will continue to serve as professor of hygiene in the School of Education. Previously Miss Helen Driver, who was on leave of absence from her post as director of health and physical education for women, resigned from the University. The division to which these officers had been attached is responsible for a variety of activities. Many of these activities were all but suspended during the war. With the return of peace, however, they have been restored and expanded. To meet the immediate administrative necessities, the chancellor, at the end of the year under review, appointed a faculty committee of five members to serve as the Committee on the Administrative Direction of the Division of Student Health, Physical Education and Intercollegiate Athletics. In addition to its directive responsibilities the committee has been charged with the duty of reporting a plan for the permanent conduct of the division. POSTGRADUATE COURSES IN THE PROFESSIONAL SCHOOLS The return of the veterans has presented to the Schools of Medicine, Dentistry and Law a special problem which the undergraduate divisions have not had to meet. Many ex-service men and women have grown rusty in their professional specialties. Some also—and this applies particularly to medical graduates—had had their training curtailed by Army regulations. To put these veterans once more in touch with professional knowledge and techniques, to inform them of new advances, and to supplement inadequate wartime training, the University's older professional schools have organized a wide variety ofrefresher courses, institutes, internships and residencies. In making large provisions for interns and residents the affiliated hospitals have given extensive and generous assistance. ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES Only a handful of students attended the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences during the war years. The faculty of the school was also greatly reduced by the absence of many of its members on government service. Alumni Bulletin Because of these circumstances the Council requested Dr. Edward J. Moore, who had reached the age of retirement, to continue to occupy the deanship. This he consented to do at no small inconvenience to himself. The school is ten years old, and Dr. Moore has been its only dean. Under his direction—and until it was decimated by the war—it enjoyed a vigorous and essentially sound development. It became widely recognized for the high standard of its work leading to both the master's and doctor's degrees. With the restoration of its staff and the rapidly increasing demand for graduate instruction on the part of veterans and others, the school is now evidently on the eve of another period of substantial growth. At the end of the year under review Dr. Moore relinquished the deanship, and the Council appointed Dr. Julius W. Pratt, professor of American history and head of the Department of History and Government, to succeed him. Dr. Edward W. Koch, who had served the School of Medicine as dean for 16 years, died on Feb. 9, 1946. Assistant Dean Stockton Kimball was immediately designated acting dean by the committee on general administration. He served in that capacity until April 18, 1946, when he was appointed dean. At the end of the year under review Dr. Oliver P. Jones was appointed assistant dean. On Feb. 7, 1946 Mr. Ernest M. Brown, who had been on leave of absence from his post as professor of law since 1942 while serving with the U. S. Army, was appointed assistant dean of the School of Law. THE CENTENNIAL A year ago I reported that the Council had appointed Mr. Myron S. Short general chairman of the Centennial Celebration and that committees to take charge of the several activities planned were being organized. The committee structure was completed early in 1946.As this report is being written one of the most important committees, namely a Committee on a Centennial Fund, is in process of organization. Plans for the celebration were completed and approved by the Committee on General Administration early in 1946. Some of the projected events have already taken place. Others are to follow in the autumn of 1946 and the spring of 1947. The Centennial Fund The Centennial year runs from May 11, 1946 to May 11, 1947. Within that period the Council has proposed to conduct a general public appeal to friends of the University for gifts for both general and special purposes to enable the institution to enlarge and improve its service to this region and to the country. The dramatic change in the character of the University's responsibilities, brought about by its recent sudden growth, emphasizes its need of increased resources. In the years immediately ahead it is committed to an immense undertaking. It must offer educational opportunities in many fields to thousands of veterans. The quality of its offerings must not be inferior to those it has provided for many years for the young people of this region. To allow the quality to decline would be a sorry response to the sacrifices which the members of the armed forces have made in behalf of all American citizens. If it is to meet its new responsibilities in the manner in which it discharged those of an earlier day, and if it is to keep pace with the rapid advances in many branches of higher education, it must have a larger annual income derived from sources other than tuition fees, and it must have additional physical facilities. On Apr. 12, the chairman of the Council, speaking to the alumni of the School of Medicine, declared the Council's intention to seek funds during the Centennial year for these purposes: 1. For the improvement and extension of the clinical teaching service and the research activities of the School of Medicine. 2. For strengthening the general financial structure and for the endowment of professorships, to enable the University to meet the increasing cost of operations and to continue to offer education of the highest quality to the youth of Western New York. 3. For the development of the new School of Engineering. A more detailed statement of the manifold needs of the University will undoubtedly be presented to the citizens of the Niagara Frontier when subscriptions are solicited. But the most urgent needs are in fact subsumed under the three heads mentioned in the chairman's statement. Within the past 25 years the citizens of Buffalo have dealt most generously with the University which bears the city's name. The fruits of their generosity have been returned to the community in the form of an increased cultural development and in better and more extensive professional service from which all citizens have benefitted. The support of the University has, indeed, been proved to be a civic investment, an investment in Buffalo's future which should carry an irresistible appeal to every enlightened and public spirited resident. Respectfully submitted, Samuel P. Capen, Chancellor. Classes Hear Alden Fourteen members of the Law Class of 1910 held their 38th reunion during the Christmas holidays in the Buffalo Club. Attorney Christopher Baldy was elected president. Principal speaker was Dean Emeritus Carlos C. Alden. The Class of 1933 had Dr. Alden as guest of honor at a reunion in Lorenzo's Restaurant early in December. On the program also were District Attorney Wallace J. Stekel of Genesee County and City Judge Raymond J. Bartkowiak of Dunkirk. Both are members of the class. REUNION NOTICE Alumni are requested to notify the Alumni Office, Crosby 237, when class reunions are scheduled. This will facilitate co-ordination with other alumni events and insure advance notice in the BULLETIN. �January, 1947 5 REPORT OF THE COMPTROLLER (Abstract) Tothe Council of the University of Buffalo, Buffalo, New York. Gentlemen: Theannual report of the comptroller and treasurer for the fiscal year which ended June 30, 1946 is presented herewith. The Balance Sheet, Exhibit "A," shows total assets of $15,553,-989.91, distributed as follows: endowment assets, $6,891,422.23; plant assets, $7,518,093.88; and operating assets, $1,144,473.80. In the operating account, the amount of $331,330.91 under "accounts receivable" calls for comment. This amount is composed of several items due and owing to the University at June 30, 1946 from the Government for tuition and fees under the Veterans' Training Program. Under prevailing contracts with the Veterans' Administration it is not possible for the University to submit complete vouchers for instruction rendered until after the end of the term or semester. Therefore, while the University continues to train veterans in large numbers, there will always be a sizeable "accounts receivable" at the close of the fiscal year reflecting these unpaid accounts under the Veterans' Training Program. The Government's handling of these Veterans' vouchers, when rendered, however, is commendably prompt. The total value of land, buildings and equipment on June 30, 1946 was $7,237,001.51. In addition to the construction of the new Engineering Building, alterations of considerable proportions have been under way since early spring to accommodate the University's facilities to the unprecedented enrollment of this fall. A new laboratory for experimental psychology has been constructed in one wing of Crosby Hall. A small chemistry research laboratory in a wing of Foster Hall has been enlarged to provide chemistry laboratory space for student nurses. One wing of the third floor of Science Hall has been remodelled to provide an ample new physics laboratory. A large suite of rooms in Crosby Hall has been developed into a testing and guidance center for veterans. Three new offices for the School of Nursing have been constructed at one end of the auditorium of Townsend Hall and the remainder of the auditorium has been converted to use as a library for students in the School of Social Work, Millard Fillmore College and the School of Nursing. The small building at the rear of the Law School, formerly a student lounge, has been remodelled to provide auxiliary library facilities for the Law School. Much new scientific equipment and office and classroom furniture have been purchased. Every available space throughout the University is being utilized to accommodate the heavy enrollment. The following is a comparative table of the operating account of the Universty for the fiscal years 1943-44, 1944-45, and 1945-46: Income 1943-1944 1944-1945 1945-1946 $ 787,891.61 $ 854,672.39 $1,388,467.27 Fees Received from Students Income from Endowment 150,922.23 149,680.31 178,866.30 Dental Infirmary (Ner) 19,702.79 14,237.93 12,754.00 Rental Property Income 1,740.00 1,740.00 1,817.50 Miscellaneous 19,753.06 31,023.61 17,367.21 A.A.F. and A.S.T.

During the year 1944-45 fees received from students totalled $854,672.39; for the year 1945-46, $1,388,467.27. This increase directly reflects the greatly increased enrollment. Only in the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry, where physical capacity restricts expansion, did the enrollment remain at fairly normal levels. How long this unprecedented enrollment will continue is still a matter of conjecture. It may last only as long as the first impact of the operation of the Veterans' Training Program, and then taper off to more normal levels. On the other hand, it may mark the beginning of a new continued growth in the University. Overnight the University of Buffalo may have become a large university and what today seems to be an unusual enrollment mayprove to be the normal registration of tomorrow. It will call for judicious management on the part of the Council and the administrative officers of the University. The University must at all costs cooperate fully with the Government in its Veterans' Training Program. It must, likewise, accept as many civilian students from the Western New York area as our physical plant will admit. This calls for immediate and costly expansion of instructional staff and plant facilities and equipment. It will require the utmost caution to avoid expansion that may not be needed later and will require curtailment. The increased cost of instruction for the year covered by this report was only $113,004.69 greater than for the preceding year. The cost of instruction for the current year, however, will be substantially greater than for the year covered by this report. This increased cost will be due to the greatly increased teaching personnel throughout the campus divisions of the University and to the raising of salary levels throughout the University which became effective July 1, 1946. During fiscal 1945-46 United States, state and municipal government bonds, purchased by the University, yielded an average income of 2.11% on the actual investment; foreign government bonds, 5.01%; railroad bonds, 4.97%; public utility bonds, 4.57%; industrial bonds, 1.88%; stocks, excluding gifts, 5.36%. The average yield on all stocks and bonds purchased and owned by the University, and excluding gifts, was 3.99% for the year. The average yield was slightly higher than in the previous year, despite the continued low yield on the U. S. Governmentbonds in the portfolio. The market value on June 30, 1946 of the stocks and bonds in the University portfolio was 118.5% of their book value or $1,043,463.18 in excess of their book value. The new Engineering Building is nearing completion, despite many delays caused by strikes and critical shortages of building materials. The formal dedication of the building on Oct. 3 formed an impressive part of the Centennial Celebration on the campus. It is contemplated that the building and laboratory will be ready for occupancy by the second semester of the current academic year. The Treasurer's Office, in cooperation with Dean Paul E. Mohn and Prof. Frederick H. Thomas of the School of Engineering, has been actively engaged in securing from the War Assets Administration and the Surplus Commodities Corporation available equipment and supplies for use in the new laboratory. Many valuable pieces of equipment have been donated free of cost, except for packing and shipping charges from the depots where they have been located. Other pieces �6 Alumni Bulletin have been secured at substantial discounts. The University has also made application to the Federal Security Agency of the U. S. Office of Education for assistance in the provision of educational facilities as specified in Section 504, Title V of the Lanham Act, as amended. It based its justification of need on the necessity of providing additional educational facilities for the great number of veterans who have enrolled in the Engineering School. A finding of need has been made in the case of equipment for the Engineering Building and also in the case of equipment to expand the facilities of the present physics laboratory, and such finding of need has been transmitted to the division engineer of the Federal Works Agency. Through this agency, it is hoped the University will be able to secure considerable additional equipment and materials so essential if the University is to meet the greatly increased demands being made upon it by both Veterans and civilian students. TheAlumni Loyalty Fund is now in the fourth year of its existence and has once again maintained its fine record of giving to the needs of the University. Last year 1467 alumni contributed $14,825.90 to the Loyalty Fund. The Council and administrative officers of the University again wish to record their gratitude to the alumni for their generous contributions. Other gifts and bequests received during the year covered by this report include: estates of Edward B. Held and Frank C. B. Held, for the establishment of the Edward B. and Frank C. B. Held Fund, $54,275.99; estate of Charles Meyer, for the establishment of the Charles Meyer Psychology Fund, $11,071.32; James McCormick Mitchell, $10,000.00; C. L B. A. Pharmaceutical Products, Inc., for Medical Research, $4,250.00; Westbury Chemical Company, Inc., for University of Buffalo Exhibit"A'« ASSETS Medical Research, $3,500.00; Blood GroupingLaboratory Grant, for MedicalResearch, $2,500.00; Mead, Johnson and Company Grant, for Medical Research, $2,500.00; Research Corporation gift for research in chemistry, $2,500.00; estate of Evelyn Rumsey Cary, for addition to the Dr. Charles Cary Memorial Fund, $2,136.95; United CigarWhelan Drug Corporation, for scholarships in the School of Pharmacy, $2,000.00; estate of Pascal Pratt Jones, for the establishment of the C. Sumner Jones Library Fund in the School of Medicine, $1,250.00; American Foundation for Pharmaceutical Education, for scholarships in the School of Pharmacy, $1,000.00; Grant T. Fisher, for the Anatomy Department of the Medical School, $1,000.00; estate of Carolyn J. Clement, $1,000.00. It has been very gratifying to receive so manyfine gifts for research purposes. This has been one of the long-felt needs of the University, and such gifts permit the University to take its place among other institutions engaged in important pieces ofresearch. The University's increased enrollment and the consequent increase in fees derived from students only accentuates the University's faulty financial structure. Too large a percentage of its total income has always been derived from student fees and too small a percentage from income from endowment. The University's financial structure will never be thoroughly sound until these sources of income more nearly approach each other through the acquisition of additional and substantial endowment funds.

PLEASE NOTIFY US OF CHANGE OF ADDRESS Will Power Everlasting Fifteen hundred Law School alumni, under the chairmanship of George G. Davidson, Jr., LLB '97, are working as a Committee on Bequests for the improvement of University resources through giving by will. Many other alumni will be interested in knowing how they, too, can build themselves into their Alma Mater's future, under the Bequest Plan. Here are some simple explanations of the subject. The BULLETIN will carry other articles from time to time. Size: No bequest is too small. As little as $50 or $100 will buy books, equipment and other facilities for one of the libraries or departments. Larger amounts will, of course, accomplish larger purposes. The gift may be earmarked for such use, or left for the University Council to administer according to need. Kind: Practically any form of property, either real or personal, may be left to the University. No matter what form a bequest takes, it may carry the benefactor's name or any other designated by the donor. Type: There are several types of bequest. A few of them follow: 1. An outright unconditional gift to the University, to be used as the Council, in its best judgment, may decide. 2. An outright gift for specific purposes, which can be used only as the donor desires. 3. A bequest held by trustees other than the University (such as a trust institution) under whose management the gift is administered and the income transmitted to the University for general or specific use. - \U\W* *" Bertram Lemon ALUMNINEWS BREVITIES "05 LLB—Lewis R.

Borowiak, DDS '32, of Buffalo, is the proud owner of the pigskin used in the 1946 opener (Buffalo 40, Moravian 0). It was awarded during a membership drive conducted by the U. of B. Boosters, which now has 300 members. was VARSITY SPORTS LOOKING UP Best Grid Season Ever Nobody has to apologize for Buffalo's football team this year. Exceeding his own conservative predictions, Head Coach Jim Peelle saw his boys take seven out of nine games, rolling up a record season's score 224 points against their opponents' 83. He also saw Lou Corriere, best triplethreat halfback in the district, make the newsmen's all-Western New York college team, while sundry others landed on second or third teams or in the honorable mention column. And he was able to look ahead with good cheer to next season, with only one vacancy to be caused by graduation. Skeptics could hardly call it a come-back. Last previous series was played in 1942, before the war intervened. That year, with less material, the Bulls won six out of eight, scoring 215 to 52. Add them up, and it gives Buffalo 13 wins out of the last 17 games played, with 439 points to the opponents' 135. It averages out at a touchdown a quarter.

The basketball situation is different. Clark Memorial Gymnasium holds about 1500. If more than that number elect to attend one game, a considerable number can't get in. That goes for alumni and friends too. The policy makers have relieved some of the strain by contracting for four home games in Memorial Auditorium. The place is not available on the other scheduled dates. That leaves seven games to be played in Clark, unless a larger hall can be lined up. Even the auditorium games may put a strain on facilities. They'll be doubleheaders, in which Canisius College and the University will team up to play host to visiting aggregations. March 1 will see an all-Western New York lineup, when Canisius plays Niagara, and Buffalo plays Buffalo State Teachers College.

LAWYERS GET BEQUEST FOLDER A new folder, "Will Power Everlasting," this month was mailed to all graduates of the Law School. Prepared by the General Alumni Board's Bequest Committee, it calls attention to the opportunity for service which alumni with legal training can render in connection with giving to the University by will. Referring to the handsome bequests made by the University's benefactors in the past, the folder says, "For some of those bequests, the University can be grateful, in part at least, to its Law School alumni. They suggested the University when asked by puzzled clients for advice on educational benefactions. "This idea is the core of the Bequest Plan, an alumni project begun in 1940, in which every Law School graduate is enrolled. "Probably nobody can perform this deed of service better than a Law School alumnus, who thus builds both his client and himself into the golden future of an institution dedicated to the service of Buffalo and Western New York." The folder includes some forms of bequest, with suggested wording for a gift for unrestricted purposes, for unrestricted use of the residue of an estate, for a scholarship and for a memorial fund. The plan is employed at many leading universities. It was adopted by the GAB six years ago. General chairman of the project is George G. Davidson, Jr., LLB '97. Members of his executive committee are Morey C. Bartholomew, LLB '09; Charles Diebold, Jr., LLB '97; Lewis R. Gulick, LLB '05; Supreme Court Justice Samuel J. Harris, LLB '07, LLM '08; Dana B.

The move followed a recommendation of a faculty committee which has been studying the problem in light of this year's record enrollment. A similar committee canvassed the situation last spring when enrollment was considerably smaller. It reported no need for a nurse at that time, but did recommend that first-aid stations be set up in the various buildings. The new committee has been at work since before the opening of the current year. It is expected to make further recommendations for Council action.

A widely known philosopher, Dr. Kallen was one of the original members of the New School when it was organized in 1919. He is one of the proponents of "cultural a concept which pluralism" in America stands for complete denial of authoritarian ways of life. Speaking in Norton Hall on "The Problems of Freedom in a Modern World" he blamed the loss of industrial freedom as the cause of "economic rigor mortis." He pointed out that science, democracy, machine industry, peace, have their own individualities. But all, he pointed out, are sprung from a common impulsion freedom. In his second address in Grosvenor Library on "The Organization for Freedom," he based the world's hope for permanent peace on its ability to set up a democratic government of nations. To get American hillbillies, Chinese coolies and Russian peasants all thinking internationally, he recommended education, the spoken word, the picture and the written word. — — Where Are They Now?

PLEASE NOTIFY US OF OF ADDRESS CHANGE Grid Bulls Topple Unbeaten Alfred One of the most startling demonstrations of college hoopla ever to disturb Father Buffalo preceded the Homecoming game on Oct. 19. Wildly optimistic students put together a mile-long cavalcade of floats, balloons, ancient and modern vehicles, paraded from McKinley monument to the Civic Stadium. Signs loudly promised ignominious defeat to invading Bucknell. The visitors had other ideas. Ending a three-game losing streak, they set the Bulls back on their haunches, 21-0. No wake, however, was the Alumni Homecoming supper engineered by Roland A. Benzow, BA '33, LLB '37. Enthusiastic grads jammed into the Wurzburger-Hof ("in the shadow of the stadium"), spent hours at the loser's favorite pastime post mortems. Buffalo's second consecutive loss was recorded Oct. 26. when Wayne scored 25 to the Bulls' 20 in the third home game of the season. But the Peellemen journeyed to West Virginia Nov. 2 and broke out of the defeat column with £ 32-6 triumph over Bethany College. Buffalo fans had all fingers crossed when undefeated Alfred came to town on Nov. 8. Peelle's team, at physical and psychological peak, toppled the downstaters 20-12. — Taylor Caldwell Makes Aid Grant The writing of best sellers will be turned to the advantage of University students with the establishment of a $3000 scholarship by Mrs. Marcus Reback (Taylor Caldwell), Arts-ex '31- The award will be made on recommendation of instructors in Millard Fillmore College, and will provide $600 annually for study in the College of Arts and Sciences or the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.

Carry Pour has been contracted for by Doubleday & Co., for spring publication. "I picked up the rudiments of journalism," he says, "from J. Montgomery Curtis, city editor of the Buffalo Evening News, and Thomas Cooke Brown, chief editorial writer for the Courier-Express." Both taught in the evening session when Sinclair was a student. Some of his short stories and articles have landed in national magazines, and he now has a sharp ear turned toward Hollywood.

Coach Jim Peelle un- covered the finest set of backs ever to wear the blue and white as the Bulls attacked by land and by air. The victory over RPI on Oct. 5 was slightly less impressive, but still satisfactory as the Bulls racked up 28 points to their opponents" 13. The third game, Oct. 12, resulted in another win, 20-7, over Hobart. Volunteer coaching help comes from Vito Grieco, Edß '39, most durable center in varsity grid annals, and Vince Bonerb, BS(Bus) '41, onetime triple-threat man. The Greek is assisting Febel with the line, while Bonerb is aiding Peelle with the backfield. New Sports Plan The University's athletics-physical education structure came in for some simplification a few weeks ago. From a complex system involving four interlocking major entities, the number has been reduced to two. Under the former plan, campus males got health services and physical training from the Department of Student Health and Physical Education for Men, while a similar department served the women. The Department of Intercollegiate Athletics and Intramural Sports came under the faculty policy committee. Prospective gym teachers got their instruction under the professional program in physical education, an adjunct of the School of Education. The new plan leaves the'professional program in physical education about where it was, but puts everything else under a new faculty committee on the administrative direction of the Division of Student Health, Physical Education and Intercollegiate Athletics. The committee's title is the only cumbersome thing about the system. Emphasizing the co-operative nature of the plan is the fact that all students in the physical education curriculum will participate in intercollegiate or intramural sports as part of their degree program. Thirtyfive of this year's 80-man football squad are physical education majors. The curriculum is supervised by a committee of which Education Dean Leslie O. Cummings is chairman. Dr. Charles H. Keene, who recently vacated his administrative post as men's health and physical education chief, on reaching the 70-year ase limit, will teach in the {continued on page 8) October, No. 7 1946 THE CENTENARY IN REVIEW Opening Convocation Taking a long chance, the Centennial Committee scheduled the Opening Convocation outdoors, on Crosby Quadrangle. The weather couldn't have been better. A mellow October sun smiled benignly as the spectators craned their necks for a first glimpse of the academic procession. A gentle breeze ruffled the new banner bearing the legend, '"University of Buffalo,' 1846-1946." Then, from around the corner of Lockwood Memorial Library they came into view Grand Marshal Richard M. Drake, faculty and council, alumni delegates, 200 representatives of American and foreign universities, colleges and learned societies, finally Chancellor Capen and the speakers of the — day. Social Work's Dean Niles Carpenter, an Episcopal clergyman, pronounced the invocation. Then Chancellor Capen stepped to the microphone to perform his three-fold task: welcome the delegates, open the academic year 1946-47, start the celebration. He welcomed new students, asking their patience during the "formidable task of suddenly turning a small university into a large one." He traced the University's history. He reaffirmed its devotion to freedom Dl the mind, with all its precious prerogatives and grave responsibilities. Then GAB President Elmer J. Tropman, BA "32, MA '35, Soc '36, rose to pay homage to the University's war dead. "We know that these gallant men will endure forever in the memory of the loved ones they left behind," he said. "I say to those loved ones, many of whom are gathered with us today, that we shall never forget them either." As he read the list of 65 names, the solemn notes of "Taps" drifted across the campus. Then he tugged at a small American flag, revealing the Alumni Memorial Plaque, which he presented to Dr. Capen. The chancellor, in turn, presented it to Gail C. Hotelling, president of the Norton Union board of managers. It will hang in Norton Hall.

Short, LLB '08, introduced University Councilor Karr Parker. The two were leaders in raising funds for the structure, which will be ready for occupancy some time during this academic year. Representatives of Niagara Frontier engineering societies nodded with approval as Mr. Parker praised the University's foresight in undertaking the establishment of the school in anticipation of the demands of returning veterans and industrial needs of the area. The unfinished state of the building, he pointed out, is not the fault of the architects, engineers or contractors. "It is due to Government meddling with the labor and materials involved," he snapped. Mr. Parker presented the keys of the building to Engineering Dean Paul E. Mohn, who, pointing to the gaping entrance, emphasized the schools open door policy. There the meeting ended, and delegates hurried off to remove academic regalia, and assemble in Norton Hall for a private luncheon in their honor. Banquet and Ball The Statler ballroom was crowded. Committee members began to show signs of strain as more and more guests continued to arrive. Somehow they all got in, and settled down to eat a five-dollar meal, listen to an all-alumni battery of speakers, two of them Chancellor's Medalists. The list: John Lord O'Brian, LLB '98, former general counsel of the OPM and WPB; George W. Thorn, MD '29, physician-in-chief at Peter Bent Brigham Memorial Hospital, Boston, and Hersey professor of the theory and practice of physic at Harvard; Mayor Bernard J. Dowd, PhG '20; GAB President Elmer J. Tropman, BA '32, MA '35, Soc '37. Council President James McCormick Mitchell, LLB "97, was toastmaster. The burden of Dr. Thorn's address was the concepts of medical practice which characterized the profession during the University's first half- a plea for a return to some of century. "Today, important economic, social and environmental factors cannot be fully appreciated by the busy practitioner whose appointment schedule allows 15 to 30 minutes per patient. This situation is in contrast to that of the general practitioner of the last century who knew relatively less scientific medicine but a great deal more about the family relationships and economic problems of his patient. This deficiency in medical practice must be remedied by changes in our curriculum." He offered a seven-point program for improvement of medical practice. His suggestions included scholarships, shortening the over-all training period, adequate inpresent OF COLORFUL EVENTS struction in psychotherapy for general prac- titioners, use of vacation periods for learning more about human relations, publicly- financed practice in rural communities, public support of post-graduate instruction for all practicing physicians. Mr. O'Brian paid loving tribute to "three names which must never be forgotten in Buffalo" for contributions to the University's progress. "They are," he said, "Charles P. Norton, whose idealism and boundless energy spread the idea and aroused the community's interest; Walter P. Cooke, whose administrative gifts and civic patriotism made it possible to raise the later endowment funds and organize the University, and Chancellor Samuel P. Capen, the head of the University, whose wisdom and genius made it nationally known as a distinctive educational institution." President Tropman brought the audience to its feet with a tribute to Eli H. Long, MD '82, "because in his story are contained the stories of our graduates." Dr. Long, earliest living graduate, sat modestly among his fellow medical alumni. Officers of the University and of the General Alumni Board sat at the speakers' table. Academic Meeting Two disappointments failed to mar the academic meeting on the morning of the second day. Both Chancellor Robert M. Hutchins of the University of Chicago and President Frank P. Graham of the University of North Carolina were unable to speak because of illness. More than acceptable as substitutes were Dr, Georges Connes, dean of the faculty of letters, University of Dijon, France, and Dr. Raphael Demos, educational philosopher and Harvard professor. They joined with Cornell's President Edmund E. Day in a discussion of "The Future of University Education." Nuernberg Echoes Impressive as were the other ceremonies, Final Convocation most impressive of all. As in the Opening Convocation, gowned and hooded delegates, Council members, faculty and alumni marched in an academic procession which was a color photographer's dream. Listeners forgot their curiosity about the soon-to-be-announced honorary degree recipients as U. S. Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson delivered his first public utterance since the Nuernberg trial. Chief prosecutor of the Nazi war criminals, he made these principal points in his address: 1. War and dictatorship are so interrelated that "little progress can be made toward permanent peace without solving the spectators found the problem of protecting the elementary righ: s of minorities." 2. International law row "regards the citizen or official whr commits crimes against the peace and dignity of international society as answerable to it for the offense." 3. "Improvement through education offers the last clear chance of civilization to avoid catastrophe." Not for many decades has the University awarded honorary degrees. A long-standing precedent was broken when 11 distinguished guests of honor stepped forth to be attired in the purple hood of a doctor of laws, and thus, by adoption, become members of the alumni body. Each candidate was presented by a spoil sor from the faculty or Council, after which Chancellor Capen read a glowing citation, and conferred the degree. The list: Vannevar Bush, president of the Carnegie Institution of Washington; chairman of the Joint Research and Development Board of the War and Navy Departments; key figure in atomic research. Georges Connes, distinguished Fcencn educator; leader of the French Underground during World War 11. Edmund Ezra Day, president of Cornel! University; nationally-known economist and leading educator. Mildred McAfee Horton, president or Wellesley College; former head of the Waves; lieutenant commander in the Women's Reserve, USNR. Robert H. Jackson, associate justice o: the U. S. Supreme Court. Francis T. Spaulding, New York Statt Commissioner of Education; president of the University of the State of New York. Owen H. Wangensteen, surgeon-in-chief, University Hospital, University of Minnesota; co-editor of "Surgery." Robert C. Wallace, principal and vic= chancellor, Queen's University, Kingston, Ont.; chairman of the Ontario Research Commission; trustee of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. George H. Whipple, dean of the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry; a director and trustee cf the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research William C Williams, New Jersey physician, poet and author. Owen D. Young, lawyer; chairman of the board of the General Electric Co.; distinguished industrial and educational leader. Library Exhibit When they had time, University guests browsed among the memorabilia on display in Lockwood Memorial Library during th; Centennial Celebration. They revealed some highlights in 100 years of history. Among the exhibits were copies of the act passed by the N. Y. Legislature on May 11, 1846, incorporating the University.

CENTENNIAL EVENTS {continued from page 3) In a worn, black notebook were the signatures of the 22 founders whose subscriptions provided the capital to establish the enterprise. Pictures of Chancellor Millard Fillmore and seven other founders also were on display. There were photographs, too, of the Sisters of Charity Hospital, where first clinical instruction was given, and the First Baptist Church, where lectures were first given. Featured was an account, published in a medical journal, of the senin medical circles when Dr. James Platt White introduced clinical midwifery for the first time in American educational history. There was also one of the first diplomas, written in Latin on parchment, signed by Millard Fillmore. An 1898 "Iris," (forerunner of the "Buffalonian") was open to view.

Centenary Booklet To every alumnus and many friends of the University, a few days before the Centennial ceremonies, went a magazine-sized brochure commemorating the anniversary. Published by the Bureau of Public Relations, it is entitled, "The Greater University of Buffalo." It reviews the University's history, notes its contributions to higher education and professional training, and demonstrates how each of its divisions was created to meet a specific demand from the constituency the University serves. The book is profusely illustrated with pictures ranging from the first building to the latest campus view. Aftermath Salaried employees and scores of volunteer workers were recovering this month from one of the most concentrated efforts in University history the celebration of its 100th Anniversary. To say that things were settling down to normal would be far from the truth, what with a record enrollment of 8,000, the strains of increased executive and teaching responsibilities, the necessity of utilizing every cubic inch of space available, and finding still more. But all concerned were breathing a little more easily, and looking back with satisfaction at a two-day observance which developed few hitches, evoked tributes on all sides. Delegates, many of whom had witnessed their own institutions' birthday parties, were unanimous in their praise of the impressiveness, elegance and finesse of the Buffalo ceremonies. Tn all committee chairmen a few days ago went this word of appreciation from — Myron S. Short, LLB 08, general chairman: "I want to thank you, and through you the members of your committee for the role you played in making the Centennial Cele- bration a success. I am sure that the time and effort we all put into the affair was decidedly worthwhile. The only compensation I can offer you is the satisfaction you ought to feel in the knowledge that it was a good job well done. "I shall never be able adequately to express my appreciation for your encouragement and support." These Honored Dead Enshrined in the hearts of teachers and fellow students are the memories of the 65 alumni who gave their lives in service during the war emergency. Pictures of most of them are shown on the adjoining page. Photographs of the others were not received in time for publication in the Bulletin. Reading from top ieft to right, they are: Lawrence I.

Murray, former assistant pastor of Buffalo's St. Francis de Sales Church, has been appointed full-time Catholic chaplain at the University. He will reside in quarters near the campus. Shortage of office space has necessitated sharing of the chaplain's office by representatives ef the three major faiths. Father Murray will take turns at the single desk with Rabbi Joshua O. Haberman of Temple Beth Zion. and the Rev. J. Jay Post of St. Mary"s-on-the-Hill Episcopal Church. �October, 1946 5 �Alumni Bulletin 6 ALUMNI Family Reunion It looked like a back-to-college movement when Business Administration alumni stormed the biggest lecture room in Crosby Hall one late September evening to welcome returning faculty members, greet old friends. Virtually every seat was occupied by the time Dr. Fritz Machlup, professor of economics, stood up to recount some of his experiences with the Office of Alien Property Custodian in Washington. "I expected to find government bad," he admitted, "but it was worse than I expected. On the other hand, it was not as bad as it might have been." Dr. Machlup predicted that labor shortage will be the nation's next big problem, especially in the producer-goods industries, where "we will desperately need more workers." He suggested that some unemployment in the non-durable goods industries might be helpful by releasing workers for other lines. Law Pane! Three distinguished members of the legal profession participated in a symposium sponsored by the Law School and the Law Alumni Association in the Twentieth Century Club Sept. 27. That a general extension of price controls after the scheduled liquidation of the OPA next June "would carry the government beyond the limits of effective legal action," was the thesis of David F. Cavers, Harvard professor and wartime OPA assistant gen- eral counsel. Mr. Cavers declared that general, direct price control is a dangerous remedy, which would "impair the operation of our pricing mechanism disastrously." He predicted that if the present wage stabilization program does not collapse this fall, it will automatically dissolve as price decontrol proceeds during the winter. Others on the program were Leon H. Keyserling, member of President Truman's three-man Economic Advisory Council, and Carl McFarland, chairman of the American Bar Association's section on administrative law. The meeting was arranged by Prof. Louis L. Jaffe and President LeGrand F. Kirk, LLB '25. Three hundred persons attended. Medical Symposium That the progressive medical man is never too busy to learn more about his profession was indicated by the flood of practitioners which engulfed Edmund Hayes Hall for three days and Kleinhans Music Hall for three more. Judging by the scores of comments, it was apparent that they got what they were after the latest news at first hand from national authorities. Three separate symposiums on bodv proteins, cancer and cardio-vascular disease — HONOR CENTENNIAL were sponsored by the Medical School as its contribution to the Centennial Celebration. Newspapers bulged for a week with accounts of the meetings, which featured star performers in the three fields. Headlines seldom tell a complete story, but a few samples selected by the Bulletin will give an idea of the scope of the papers. On body proteins: "Inadequate protein cuts child's growth." "Lack of acid slows human machine." "Complications attributed to protein lack." "Advice of doctor on diet is vital." Micrographs of cold virus shown doctors." On cancer: "Doctor discusses smoking as factor in cancer of lung." "Gastric cancer curable if recognized in time." "Value of atomics in cancer therapy remains question." "Exact cause of cancer still not known." "Physician urges increase in funds for research." "100% bottle feeding won't halt cancer transmission." On cardio-vascular disease: "Rest termed best single heart remedy." "Heart disease mortality cut by penicillin." "Use of less salt, fluids aids dropsy victims." "Public fight on rheumatic fever urged." "High blood pressure not too dangerous ' to aged." "Operation to cure blue babies' told at U. B. symposium." Direct to the public lap went one problem stemming from the meat shortage. The headline: "Black market slaughter curtails insulin supply." Dental Meeting The pent-up enthusiasm of the Dental Alumni Association, unable to meet for two years because of war restrictions, found release in a rousing three-day meeting in Hotel Statler this month. Hundreds of members crowded in to hear essayists, study exhibits, attend table clinics, pay homage to older colleagues and elect officers for 1946-47. New president of the association is John LYNCH, '20 D. Lynch, '20, Lackawanna, N. Y., practitioner. He succeeds Anthony S. Gugino, '22. Other officers chosen: vice president, Stuart W. Farmer, '33; treasurer, Samuel A. Gibson, '21; secretary, Myron A. Roberts, '30. Dr. Lynch also was elected to the General Alumni Board for a two-year term. Dr. Gugino has another year to serve on that body. A highlight of the meeting was a Luncheon at which Arch editor of the Chicago Tribune the principal speakers. The speakers' table lineup included many a sports notable from near and far. The hotel's Niagara Room was crowded to capacity for the annual dinner dance, a: which Charles A. Pankow, "05, was guest of honor. Frequent bursts of applause interrupted Toastmaster Gugino as he introduced graduates of the school's earliest classes. Oldest class represented was '94. Dr. J. Wright Beach took a bow for his classmates. Quarterbacks' Ward, sports was one of Washington Luncheon Members of the Washington Branch Club began post-war activities with a Centennial luncheon Sept. 21 in Bonat's Restaurant. Twenty-one persons Mrs. Evelyn Kunkle Welling, BA '27, presided and reported on her recent visit to the University campus. Principal speaker was John Lord O'Brian, LLB '98, who described events leading up to the acquisition of the campus and the welding together of the University's parts. HAMILTON, '30 The program also included playing of a recording of the Centennial broadcast made several months ago. New president of the organization is Jean G. Hamilton, BA '30, who succeeds Mrs. Sara Rice Carter, BA '23. Miss Hamilton also was elected the club's delegate to the October Centennial observance. Other officers will be chosen at the next meerin/r, which has been for Nov. 9. tively set down tenta- Cataract Dinner To Niagara Falls on Sept. 24 went Stanley D. Travis, associate professor of English and director of dramatics, to address the alumni branch club of that area. He described University Centennial events, discussed the post-war boom in enrollment, and played the Centennial broadcast recording. James S. Hill, PhG '26, discussed the need for more scholarships at the University, describing at some length the Stine Scholarships for students in the School of Pharmacy. Assemblyman Ernest Curto, Law-ex '30, was toastmaster. General chairman of the event was Alice L. Schelosky, BA '34, president of the club. ARTS GRADS FROLIC Arts and Sciences alumni gathered in Norton Hall for a Monte Carlo party durin» Centennial preliminaries.

MANY AUTHORS ON FACULTY To college professors, writing and research are at least as important as teaching. Busy as they are these days, facultymen on the Buffalo campus are finding time to turn out a book now and then. A recent sampling: Harold M. Somers, professor of economics, is at work on a book on government finance, due for completion in another year. Willard H. Bonner, professor of English, who is considered the American authority on Capt. Kidd, has completed "Pirate Laureate," a study of the Kidd legend. Dr. Nathaniel Cantor, LLB '29, chairman of the Department of Sociology and Anthropology, wrote "Dynamics of Learning," which was published a few weeks ago. He has written several others, including "Employe Counseling," which came out last year. Prof. Wilfred B. Kerr of the History Department is looking for a publisher for "French Revolution, an Essay on Self-Government." He has four other books to his credit, including "Bermuda and the American Revolution," and "Shrieks and Crashes, Memories of Canada's Corps." He is also at work on a college text on English history.

The many-syllabled faculty committee, which has charge of all other activities, is headed by Dr. Reginald H. Pegrum, chairman of the Geology Department. It will supervise athletic budgets, scheduling, eligibility, discipline and awards. It will control interschool, inter/class, interfraternity contests. It will watch over coaching activi- ties, control the health services and administer the "service" or non-professional physical education classes. As further evidence of co-operation between the two units, Football Coach Jim Peelle, who ranks as an associate professor, will teach physical education majors. A similar arrangement has been made with Line Coach Fritz Febel, who gains a fulltime post and the rank of assistant professor. Peelle continues as director of intercollegiate and intramural sports, and becomes acting director of student health and physical education for men. A newcomer is Malcolm S. Eiken, who becomes assistant professor of education, head basketball coach, and an assistant football coach in the guard section. These changes are in line with the University's policy of awarding academic rank and full-time employment to its teachercoaches. Eiken's appointment coincided with the resignation of Bobby Harrington, LLB '32, from the old part-time cage mentor's position. Harrington, a Buffalo lawyer, has accepted appointment as secretary of the Buffalo Hockey Club. Coach Eiken, a 32-year-old Minnesota athlete, began practice on the Buffalo campus in mid-October with a 110-man squad. Its quality at the moment is unknown. Homecoming Note the BULLETIN ■is Aslearned that goes to press, it the Home- waitresses at coming dinner made an extra charge, explaining chat it was "for the alumni." This is not so. The extra charge was due partly to the lifting of meat ceilings, partly to their misunderstanding of the fact that the management had agreed to share in the cost of mailing Homecoming notices.

Commencing Sept. 24, hundreds of alumni, friends, students, facultymen and institutional representatives will participate in one or more of the events which will fill almost a daily schedule extending into October. The celebration has been going on since last University Day. Alumni organizations staged rousing meetings last spring. Students revived Moving Up Day with a Centennial theme. The Medical School threw open its doors to the public for a day. The Commencement in June marked the end of an academic year and the mid-point of a For guests at the Oct. 3 and 4 exercises, the program will be fairly full. Thursday, Oct. 3: Alumni and institutional delegates will register in Lockwood Memorial Library beginning at 9:30 A.M. The academic procession will form at 11 o'clock, and move to the quadrangle behind Crosby Hall. There, at 11:30, Chancellor Capen will preside at the Opening Convocation. GAB President Elmer J. Tropman, BA '32, MA '35, Soc '37, will present the memorial plaque bearing the names of the 63 alumni who died in service. The chancellor will give it into the custody of Gail C. Hotelling, student body president, for mounting in Norton Hall. A special section of seats will be reserved for the families of the Gold Star men. The assemblage will then move to the Engineering School building, which will be dedicated in simple ceremonies. A buffet luncheon for delegates will follow in Norton Hall, after which Chancellor Capen and Council President James McCormick Mitchell, LLB '97, will receive the official greetings of delegates. The Statler Hotel will be the scene of the civic banquet at 7:15 P.M. Speakers will be John Lord O'Brian, LLB '98, prominent legal and government figure; George W. Thorn, MD '29, Harvard Medical School professor and researcher, and Buffalo's Mayor Bernard J. Dowd, PhG '20. Mr. Mitchell will be toastmaster. President Tropman is general chairman. Friday, Oct. 4: All activities on this day will be in Kleinhans Music Hall. At the academic meeting, which starts at 10:30 A.M., speakers will be Chancellor Robert M. Hutchins of the University of Chicago; President Edmund E. Day of Cornell, and President Frank P. Graham of the University of North Carolina. Their general subject: "The Future of University Education." A buffet lunch will be served at 1:15. The Final Convocation will be at 4 P.M. The main address will be delivered by U. S. Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson, chief prosecutor at the Nuernberg trials. Then, for the first time in decades, a group of distinguished guests will receive honorary centenary. As though to add to the birthyear atmosphere, a postwar boom broke Summer Session enrollment records, and campus registration for the fall semester will be well over 5000. Previous record high: 2600. Fighting a tight time schedule, the Centennial Committee has announced a series of meetings beginning in late September, to which alumni and fellow members of their respective callings are being invited. Outstanding is a group of three symposia sponsored by the Medical School, and running six days. Subjects: heart disease, cancer, body proteins. The Law School and its alumni will hold a symposium at which three outstanding legalists will speak. The Business Administration Alumni Association plans a welcome home to returning faculty members and a greeting to new ones. Alumni of the College of Arts and Sciences will hold a social evening. The big celebration comes October 3 and 4. There will be two public convocations, at one of which honorary degrees will be awarded; an academic meeting with three university presidents as speakers; a civic banquet and ball in which alumni will play the principal part. The program also includes dedication of the new Engineering School building, presentation of the alumni memorial plaque, a reception for official delegates. Concurrently, the Lockwood Memorial Library will hold an exhibit of University memorabilia covering the last 100 years. The observance does not end there. The Dental Alumni Association, unable to secure facilities for an earlier date, has scheduled its annual meeting for Oct. 8-10, and on Oct. 19, alumni will celebrate Home- CENTENARY CHAIRMAN For him, double problems. coming Day with a Bucknell-Buffalo football game and party. General chairman of the celebration committee is Myron S. Short, LLB '08. For him, this year has meant a double dose of centennial problems. In addition to directing the myriad activities connected with the University's observance, he is president of the Buffalo Savings Bank, which recently held a civic celebration commemorating its own 100th birthday. Alumni Will March Sixty-three delegates of all alumni divisional associations and branch clubs have received special invitations to the Centennial Celebration on Oct. 3 and 4. They have been invited to attend all public events on the program (see above), but a special arrangement has been necessary in connection with the academic processions at the two convocations. Because of limited space in Kleinhans Music Hall, only the regular delegates to the General Alumni Board (two from each divisional group, one from each branch club) will march in the closing exercises. Since the Opening Convocation will be held out-of-doors, three extra delegates from each divisional association have been invited to march with the distinguished guests, University Council and faculty. degrees. REUNION NOTICE Class reunion officials are requested to notify the Bulletin whenever meetings are planned.

Epstein, just in time to make a short speech. - EDUCATION It was one of the quickest elections in history the of the Alumni in Education. When the nominating committee brought in its slate, the electorate approved it unanimously, returning Alice M. Kidder, Mus '35, EdM '36, to the presidency which she had taken over near the end of a busy, trying year. From the committee which had ably assisted in the association's post-war revival, members chose the following officers vice president, Mathilde L. Andler, : "38; secretary, A. Good, '44; Janet treasurer, Herbert C. Feldmann, EdM '35. Elected to the General Alumni Board were Vincent A. Carberry, BS '21, EdM KIDDER, '35 '33, for two years, and Helen R. Cornell, EdM "34, for one year. Approximately 100 alumni and guests were on hand to welcome Dr. Albert N. Jorgensen, president of the University of Connecticut, who was a member of the school's first faculty in 1931. Tribute was paid to the teachers who have served the school since its founding 15 years ago. Chancellor Capen, Dean Leshe O. Cummings, and Professor Kenneth A. Agee also spoke. DENTISTRY The 44th annual meeting of the Dental Alumni Association will be held in Hotel Statler October 8-10, it was announced this month by President Anthony S. Gugino, '22. Officers and committee members are preparing a meeting which is expected to equal those of pre-war years in high standard of lectures and clinics, and in quantity of exhibits. They anticipate a large attendance at class reunions and other social events. Planners are determined to make the meeting an outstanding contribution to the University Centennial Celebration. Officers, beside Dr. Gugino, are, vice president, John D. Lynch, '19; secretary, Stuart W. Farmer, '33; treasurer, Samuel A. Gibson, '21. LAW New president of the Law Alumni Association is LeGrand F. Kirk, '25, who is associated with the Buffalo law firm of Kenefick, Cooke, Mitchell, Bass & Letchworth. He succeeds Morey C. Bartholomew '09. The election was held early this month in the Supervisors' chambers of Frie County Hall. Michael Catalano. "34, was elected vice president; Kent Christy, '24, secretary, and Joseph A. Kolassa, '24, treasurer. G. Thomas Ganim, KIRK, '25 BS '24, LLB '27, was returned to the General Alumni Board for a two-year term, and Mr. Catalano will serve for one. Supreme Court Justice Samuel J. Harris, LLB "07, LLM '08, addressed the group. BOOSTERS RE-ORGANIZE A change in name and a reaffirmation of its devotion to varsity athletics marked the first step in the revival recently of the U. of B. Alumni Boosters. President Walter S. Behrens, DDS '30, has announced plans to call the group the U. of B. Boosters, thus opening membership to non-alumni. He is now hard at work on a membership campaign. With upwards of 100 members already on the books,the club plans an election at an early date. The Alumni Boosters were prominently identified with the Niagara Frontier Scholarship plan in pre-war days, which saw a gradual improvement in the calibre of Jim Peelle's football teams, resulting in the highly successful one of 1942. The new club intends to help the scholarship project again, and assist athletics in other ways. �4 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Dr. A.

Only 187 degrees, diplomas and certificates were awarded. But it was one of the most colorful, as its augumented faculty added a painter's chart of academic garb to those worn by the Council members and guests. That the current enormous university enrollments throughout the land are not temporary phenomena, but signs of an expanding movement toward higher education, was one of the major points in the main address, delivered by Dean John Dale Russell of the University of Chicago. Chancellor Capen made the presentations. In his opening remarks, he also indicated an expectation of continua lly increasing enrollments when he declared that "there seems to be little likelihood that so few will again present themselves for degrees at any annual Comnenrement for many years, perhaps ever." Still finishing its work was the Medical School's Class of 1946, which has been operating on a different schedule during the war. Graduation date: June ?.2. Speaker: Herbert A. Smith, MD '07 ; emeritus professor of surgery. LAW CLASS MEETS Thirty-three of the original members of the Law School Class of 1932 held their 14th annual dinner in Buffalo's Hotel Touraine this month. Speakers were Dr. Edward F.

Just in time to direct the Medical School's anniversary observance, Stockton Kimball, MD '29, was appointed dean of the University's oldest division. He had served as acting dean since the death in February of Dr. Edward W. Koch. In announcing the appointment, Chancellor Capen described Alumnus Kimball as "one of our foremost graduates who, in his 11-year association with the medical faculty, "has demonstrated unusual teaching and administrative capacity." The 43-year-old dean is a Buffaionian by birth, He won a bachelor of science degree at Harvard in 1924, was awarded his Buffalo medical degree "cum laude." He studied in Europe from 1931 to 1933, joined the medical faculty as instructor in medicine^ and pharmacology in 1935. *He was promoted subsequently to associate, became assistant dean in July, 1944. Medical students have found Dr. Kimball an authority on malaria and other tropical diseases, which he studied in Costa Rica and Guatemala under sponsorship of the Markle Foundation. Henceforth he will find less and less time for teaching, as he takes on such new responsibilities as representing the alumni at the annual Moving Up Day exercises (April 27) ; directing the Medical School's lOCth Birthday Open House (May 11); speaking at the University's memorial services for Dean Koch (May 12). No surprise to those who can read signs was the elevation of the Department of Mechanical Engineering to school status. The signs: a steadily increasing need for engineering training and a marked increase in enrollment in engineering courses. A speedup in construction of the new divisions building is under way. Staff teachers.handling a whopping enrollment of 400 day students, 200 more in the evening session, expect to occupy the new structure by Fall. Concrete has been poured to the first floor level. division was started The as a part of the College of Arts and Sciences. It offers bachelor of science degrees in mechanical engineering and industrial technology. Some students have requested courses in chemical and electrical engineering, but the school is unable to offer them at present. First dean of Engineering is Dr. Paul E. Mohn, former professor of mechanical engineering at the University of Illinois. He is a graduate of Pennsylvania State Col- ' NEW DEANS Left, Engineering's Dr. Mohn; right, Medicine's Dr. Kimball lege and Illinois. He taught at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute from 1922 to 1925 and at Illinois from 1925 to 1944, when he came to Buffalo to head its engineering faculty. Among his industrial contributions was the designing of a new line of warm-air furnaces; development of a wet-bulb thermo couple for use in mechanical engineering laboratories; developmental work on fans for barrage balloons for the Army Engineering Corps. The day session has eight teachers this year. Next year the staff will be increased to 12. Five Buffalo area industrial experts teach evening classes. Their number will be increased next year too. Other faculty news: Resignation: Helen I. Driver, associate professor of physical education, to become executive director of the Red Cross chapter in Medford, Mass. She has been on leave of absence as a Red Cross worker overseas. Election: Dr. Marvin Farber, chairman of the philosophy department, to the executive committee of the Council of the Association for Symbolic Logic. PLASTICS SERIES COMING Adding its sizable bit to the Centennial Celebration, the Chemistry Department will sponsor a Symposium on Plastics, which will be held on campus June 7 and 8. Invitations have gone out to hundreds of Northeast United States scientists, university and industrial researchers. They will be able to hear some of the latest news on plastics, much of which was kept under cover during the war. So important are some of the developments that two publishers already are competing for rights to print and distribute the papers as a commemorative volume. Chairman of the event is Emmette F. hard of the research division. Rayon Department, E. I. duPont de Nemours & Co., Inc. No popular lectures, the papers will be devoted to such technical matters as viscoelastic properties, vinyl resins, molecular theory, plasticized and unplasticized polymers For the benefit of the public, however, a general talk on "Plastics and Plasticizers" will be given in Foster Hall June 6 at 8 P.M. The speaker will be Dr. Turner Alfrey, Jr., professor of physical chemistry at Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute. Speakers on the following two-day program will include Dr. M. C. Reed of the Bakelite Corporation; Dr. A K. Doolittle, assistant research director of the Carbide & Carbon Chemical Corp.; Dr. R. F. Bayer, assistant director of physical research, Dow Chemical Co.; Dr. Verne L. Simril of the duPont Rayon Department, and Dr. Alfrey. The series logically follows a Polymer Seminar being given this year under department sponsorship. Plasticizer: an agent which makes plastics more plastic. NO RAIN ON MOVING UP DAYIt is a strong tradition among under- graduates that it always rains on Moving Up Day. Few of them know that many such Spring festivals have proceeded under sunny skies. This year's weather set a new majk. It snowed. Despite cold winds from the Great Lakes basin, students donned gay costumes (some thoughtfully starting with a layer of wool insulation), mounted their 39 floats, rode, blue but brave, from lower Main Street to the University campus. Fraternities, sororities, clubs and classes combined to emphasize this year's parade theme: "A Century of Service." In ways comic and serious, they reminded the Buffalo community of its University's growth. Norton Hall auditorium was jam-packed when the moving up ceremonies began. After the crowning of blonde and comely Bobbe Martin as May Queen, students applauded as their fellows received activities awards, parade prizes. Then followed the Queen's luncheon, a fashion show, an intrasquad football game introducing Coach Jim Peelle's 1946 club, a tea dance and another dance in the evening. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO HOME GAMES IN STADIUM Winding up what Coach Jim Peelle described as "the best Spring drill we've ever had." the Varsity football club on Moving Up Day turned in suits, began to do some extra thinking about examinations. Sports fans were full of praise for the outfit, which played an intra-squad game, resulting in a 6-6 tie. Approximately 60 players took part—about the largest number Peelle has ever seen on Rotary Field. "We've had players returning—war veterans—from as far back as 19-40," he explained. "The boys have excellent spirit, and they're fighting for positions." There are hopes in the campus air these days, that Buffalo will pick up where it left off in 1942, when the team racked up 215 points to the opponents' 52. That year the Blue and White seemed to be on the way to regional big-sca!e competition. The war interfered. Eligible students left, and so did football. Adding fuel to followers' hopes was the announcement that the squad expects to play all home games on its nine-game schedule in Buffalo Civic Stadium. If the application now on file is approved by the Stadium Board, it will give players and spectators the thrill of seeing their colors on a big-time gridiron, instead of on the adequate but unspectacular campus playing field. The schedule: September 28, Moravan; October 5, RPI at Schenectady; October 12, Hobart at Geneva; October 19, Bucknell (Homecoming); October 26, Wayne; November 2, Bethany at Bethany, W. Va.; November 9, Alfred; November 16, Carnegie Tech at Pittsburgh. With the renascence of intercollegiate athletics, the Alumni Boosters were beginning to show signs of activity again, and word was going around that the Niagara Frontier Scholarship plan, approved by Uni' versity authorities before the war, will re ceive renewed support.

Alumni attention is called to the fact that this appeal will be made to the community, not to the alumni, who will continue to express their loyalty through the 1946 Alumni Loyalty Fund. Loyalty Fund Chairman LaVerne H. Brucker, DDS '21, announces that the '46 Alumni Fund will be given to the University as a separate part of the Centennial Year drive. Of course, he points out, there are no restrictions on alumni who desire to give to the Centennial drive too, after making their contributions to the Loyalty Fund. PRINCIPALS ENTERTAINED The University was host to 150 Western New York high school principals and teachers at a lecture and tea in Lockwood Memorial Library last month. Prof. Harry W.

Vying for top priority were such problems as reconversion from the Army-Navy accelerated program of instruction; increase in number of applications for admission; post-internship residencies for returning veterans; postgraduate courses for exservice men and practitioners; special events celebrating the school's centennial. Reconversion: The accelerated pro- gram established during the war for the armed forces will terminate by June 22. The 56 seniors studying under Army sponsorship will continue on that status until graduation. Second and third year students enrolled under the same plan were discharged last month. The Navy program finished last December, its personnel going on inactive duty. The 74 students enrolled at that time continued their studies as civilians. Admissions: Applications for enrollment every year reach the vicinity of 1000, from which the school is permitted, because of limited facilities, to accept only 70-odd. School authorities this month pointed to the war-born back-log of candidates, measured the swelling stack of letters, estimated the figure will reach 2000 by next fall. Regretfully they stated that, in contrast with other University divisions, the school cannot increase its enrollment. Post-internship: Many medical officers returning from war service are enrolling in a program of residency for post-internship under the school's direction. They will be able to take advantage of the GI Bill, specializing in the field of their choice in Buffalo hospitals. Nearly 60 or them started April 1, when resident staffs underwent considerable change as non-veterans became eligible for military service. Allowances received as hospital residents will not affect eligibility for servicemen's benefits. In charge of the plan is Frank Meyers, MD '29, assistant professor of pharmacology and therapeutics. Postgraduate courses: For returneu medical officers and practitioners, tne department of postgraduate teaching is sponsoring three courses beginning April 22, ending April 27. Students will attend from 9 to 5 o'clock daily. have a choice of lectures and clinics on pediatrics, therapeutics, malignant diseases. A. H. Aaron, MD '12, professor of clinical medicine, is in charge, with William F. Lipp, MD '36, instructor in medicine, acting as secretary. Special events: The Medical School dates its history back to May 11, 1846, when the University charter was signed in Albany. Official celebration of the event will be held next Fall, but Charter Day will not pass unnoticed. School authorities plan an open house that day. They will invite the public in to see where their doctors get a large part of their professional training. Plans are crystallizing, too, for a series of medical symposiums next fall, immediately preceding the October celebration. The Medentian, for more than ten years the monthly magazine and yearbook of the Medical and Dental Schools, will devote its graduation issue to an observance of the centennial. MEDICAL ADVISERS PICKED News that the Veterans Administration will build a new hospital on Bailey Avenue opposite the University campus, was followed last month by appointment of a liaison committee comprising 11 Medical School facultymen. Selected by Acting Dean Stockton Kimball, MD "29, the group will recommend all staff appointments to the hospital, and will work with a similar committee from the University of Rochester on a survey of services at the Veterans Facility in Batavia. No. 3 ON CENTENARY COMMITTEE A total of 437 men and women representing all walks of life in Buffalo and Western New York will comprise the general committee for the University Centennial, it was announced last month by Council Chairman James McCormick Mitchell, LLB '97.

PLEASE NOTIFY OF ADDRF^ UPTURN US OF CHANGF CONTINUES to U. S, colleges, a noteworthy product was the vanishing American male. Wars end and the G.I. Bill of Rights have brought him back, bigger, more mature, more numerous than ever before. Operating at double its normal load, Buffalo has been straining human and physical resources to satisfy the unprecedented demand for teachers, books, classrooms, laboratory facilities. Veterans, eager to make up for lost time, accustomed to griping at service snafu, have made complaints. Teachers and ac ministrative officers have responded by making adjustments, taking on extra loads, pressing extra staff members into When war came service. And still they come. A special enrollment was permitted this month for service personnel who would otherwise have had to wait for the Summer Session or the Fall semester. Daytime enrollment has jumped from about 1900 to around 5500, with the end not yet in sight. Experts estimate the peak will not be reached for another year. Happiest at the phenomenon: the coeds, outnumbered once again. LAST MILESTONES '03 MD—Burrcn T.

He writes: "We people of England have had much to contend with during these war years, but our friendship with the United States has done much to make things more pleasant. May this friendship long continue and may our joint efforts make the world a better place to live in. Devon is a lovely country but must be seen to be appreciated.

The cessation of hostilities changes the out' look for the immediate future. It affords an opportunity, also, to summarize the University's direct contributions to the war effort from 1941 to date. One thousand seven hundred and fourteen graduates of the University have been members of the armed forces. It has proved impossible to maintain an absolutely accurate count of the students who have been called to active military service before completing their respective courses of study, since the count of calls have been continuous, and in some instances have not been reported to the recording offices. The number of non-graduates who have been members of the armed forces is roughly estimated as almost equal to the number of alumni. The University service flag bears 27 gold stars. More than a quarter of the members of the faculty have been granted leaves of absence to engage in war service. Most of them are, or have been, members of the armed forces. Others have served with the War Production Board, the Office of Strategic Services, the Office of Scientific Research and Development, the War Manpower Commission, the Office of Price Administration, the Alien Property Custodian, the War Labor Board and the Radiation Laboratory. One absent member of the faculty was responsible for an essential piece of research which made possible the production of the V-T fuse. Important contribution*; to the development of the atomic bomb were made by two members of the staff. (In addition six civilian alumni and one uniformed graduate were involved in the experimental and research work on the atomic bomb.) Through the courses of study prescribed by the Federal authorities the University trained nearly 3000 members of military units, reservists and technical specialists be tween June, 1942 and the end of the war. From the summer of 1941 until the summer of 1945 the University participated in the Federal Government's program of Engineering. Science and Management War Training by conducting courses for workers in the war industries of this area. The total number of individuals enrolled in these courses exceeded 10,000. IMMEDIATE EFFECTS OF THE WAR It is implied above that the University suffered serious losses of both students and teachers. The total civilian enrollment in the full-time divisions began to decline slightly even before the United States beas a result, first, of the operation of the Selective Service Act, and second, of the competing attraction of highly paid employment in the war industries of came a belligerent, this area. The decline continued at a rapidly increasing rate following America's entry into the war. When the low point was reached, in 1944, the civilian enrollment had fallen off somewhat more than 50%. Large as the losses were, the numerical decline in the civilian enrollment of both day and evening sessions was smaller every year than had been anticipated when the annual budgets were adopted. Although the University's status with respect to total civilian enrollment remained relatively favorable, the incidence of loss was very serious, both for the University itself and for the professional life of the nation. The student bodies of the School of Law, the School of Pharmacy, the School of Business Administration, the School of Education and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences were reduced to a mere handful. The Council is aware that professional education in these fields was judged by the Government to have no military value. Durin? the last two years the only persons permitted to prepare themselves for professional service in law, business, teaching, pharmacy, the natural sciences, the social sciences and the humanities were women and men physically disqualified for military duty. Assignments of military personnel continued to be made to schools of medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine and engineering. But this was the Government's only provision for maintaining the professional competence of the nation. Notwithstanding the reduction of the enrollment of several of its important professional schools to about the size of a corporal's guard and notwithstanding the serious losses in teaching personnel, the University has continued all divisions in full operation. No courses for which applicants have presented themselves have been suspended. The structure of the institution remains intact. The decline in the number of civilian students was closely paralleled by the temporary loss of members of the teaching and administrative staffs. The largest drafts of faculty members for Government service occurred, moreover, in precisely those departments which were most directly concerned with the instruction of military personnel. Four examples may be cited. Eighty members of the faculty of the Medical School, nearly half of the total body, entered the armed forces. More than half the membership of the departments of physics, chemistry and economics were summoned to participate in Government projects as investigators or as administrators. The loss of these and other members of the faculty not only diluted the quality of the University's offerings; it also threw upon the staff members who remained an exceptionally heavy burden of teaching, especially during the last two years of war when the University was entrusted with the instruction of substantial numbers of student soldiers and sailors. In fact, the University would have been wholly unable to meet its obligations to the War and Navy Depart' ments if some of the remaining faculty members had not volunteered to teach subjects outside their respective fields of specialization. In order to render this service effectively, many of these instructors had to go to school again to their own colleagues. A secondary result of the overloading of the resident teaching staff was the interference with research and scholarly production. In the years before the war the faculty of the University of Buffalo was making its appropriate contribution to the general stream of scholarly production. The teaching schedules required by the University were relatively light. They were des;gned to allow time for research and writing and the private study necessary for a scholar's growth. During the war years these conditions were radically altered. The faculty by its own voluntary action took over the teaching of Army units in addition to its regular teaching assignments. This meant an increase of the average teaching load by as much as 25%, in some divisions by as much as 30%, with the result that few members of the staff had either time or energy left for creative scholarship. The loss is imponderable, but it is none the less real. The losers have been not alone the members of the faculty. The students although they may not know it have also been losers. But the chief loser has been the nation at large, for the situation which has prevailed here has been common to American universities. In one resoect the University has fared far better than any of its administrative officers dared to anticipate. It has had no operating deficits. In previous reports I have discussed at some length the reasons for this favorable financial situation. But to complete the present summary I now list them again. They are: (1) the sizeable Government contracts for the instruction, housing and feeding of military personnel and for the use of part of the University plant; (2) the faculty's action in assuming the task of teaching student soldiers without extra compensation; (3) the large number of teachers who were absent on war service and hence not paid by the University; (4) the increase in the fee income of the Medical School as a result of the all the year round operation; and (5) the comparatively large civilian enrollment. — — �3 ALUMNI BULLETIN Planning for Educational Improvements Any account of the immediate effects of the war would be incomplete, if it failed to mention the reexamination of the University's educational programs which the staffs of nearly all divisions have undertaken. The Council will recall that for many years the Medical School has selected its annual entering class of 70 students from an average of over 1000 applicants. Although only two years of pre-medical study are prescribed as a minimum entrance requirement, very few applicants have lately been accepted who have not had three or four years of preliminary preparation. Only students with very superior college records have been admitted on two years of preprofessional study. The experience with the A.S.T.P. students who have been allowed but fifteen months of pre-medical training before assignment to the School has demonstrated that for the rank and file of medical students this limited amount of preparation is insufficient. The School is looking forward to the day when the selection of its student body will be once more wholly in its own hands. It is common knowledge that remarkable medical discoveries were made just before or immediately after the United States entered the war, and that special needs of the armed forces led to amazingly rapid improvements in many techniques of treatment. These developments of medical science and art, combined with the disruption of medical schools under the pressure of Army and Navy requirements, have presented a peculiar challenge to all who are concerned with medical education. It is obvious that the medical curriculum will have to be redesigned. New subjects will have to be included. The points of emphasis will have to be shifted. In certain fields new methods of presentation will hay? to be introduced. There must be much larger provision for clinical research and for the tra-ning of students in the techniques of research. Only thus can the schools keep abreast of the recent extraordinary advances and prepare students for the competent practice of what has become the most rapidly developing of all professions. The Council is familiar with the tutorial plan of instruction to which the College of Arts and Sciences has been committed for the past fourteen years, and with the very flexible requirements for the A.B. degree. Details of the scheme have occasionally been questioned and occasionally been altered. During the past year, for the first time, the CurriculumCommittee has addressed itself to an overhauling of the whole program. It has analyzed the records of hundreds of students, reexamined the stated aims of the College, studied the results of a great variety of tests administered by our own staff and by outsiders, and accumulated testimony from alumni and from others concerning the virtues and the defects of the existing liberal arts program. The Committee has devoted an immense amount of time to the task. It has prepared a comprehensive report which will shortly be presented to the faculty. Because of the peculiar urgency of the problems which they faced, the Medical School and the College of Arts and Sci' ences have conducted more elaborate reviews of their respective enterprises than have the other divisions of the University. However, the Law School, the School of Business Administration, the School of Dentistry and the School of Nursing have also carried on curriculum studies and have outlined plans for new offerings which the war experience has shown to be desirable. Continuing Shortages Repeated reference has been made above certain unfortunateresults of the Government's manpower policy. In my last annual I discussed at length the probable deficit of physicians, dentists, engineers and types other of professional and scientific specialists. The policy has created a national emergency no less real and no less critical than the military emergency which has now been successfully met. I said a year ago that we alone among the warring nations had decided to throw away our seed corn. The question of whether the policy was justified need no longer be debated. It has come to have only a historical interest. But the question of what the nation is to do now rises with even greater insistence. The war has been won. The armed forces are being demobilized. But we are still throwing away our seed corn. We are still making it impossible for any one not a member of the female sex, or not physi' cally disqualified for military service, to become a phvsirian, a dentist, an engineer, a teacher, a chemist, a physicist or any other kind of technical expert. We are still drafting boys of eighteen and granting no deferments to those preparing themselves, or desiring to prepare themselves, for these vital ocupations. Unless this policy is altered and altered without delay, the health of the nation, its productivity and its competitive position in the highly competitive postwar world will be placed in fatal jeopardy. RECORD OF THE YEAR In March, 1944, the Chancellor appointed committee, broadly representative of the a various divisions of the University. known as the Committee on Veterans Educational Services. Its assigned duties were to study the probable needs of returning veterans, to set up appropriate advisory services, and to recommend to the several faculties special course offerings and curriculum adjustments. The existing University Office of War Training was designed as the Committee's administrative agency to conduct the direct relations with the Veterans Administration and to handle all matters dealing with veterans' registration. At the beginning of the year under review the special committee of the Counci', under the chairmanship of Mr. Myron S. Short, which was engaged in raising a sum of money sufficient to erect and equip a laboratory building for instruction in mechanical engineering, had advanced so far in its task that the Council authorized the inauguration of a four-year curriculum in this branch. It also instructed the Chancellor to seek a director of the new currito report culum and of the already existing degree curriculum in industrial management. The new director, Professor Paul E. Mohn, formerly Director of the Mechanical Engineering Laboratories of the University of Illinois, was appointed September 13, 1944. Fifty new students were accepted in the fall of 1944 as candidates for the degree in mechanical engineering. In view of the existing regulations of the Selective Service System the number was unexpectedly large. The officers of the University believe that rhis early response confirms their conviction of the demand for such instruction in this area. For the contributions which have made this development possible the University is indebted chiefly to the manufacturing industries of the Niagara Frontier. The heads of many of these firms have not only pledged large donations of cash and equinment, but they have also taken an active interest in the project and have given the University much helpful advice. It is particularly gratifyine that this auspicious start in the field of engineering education has been made in time to meet the needs of returning veterans. In my last report I acknowledged the fund contributed by a group of department stores in Buffalo to establish a Department of Retailing in the School of Business Administration. The new curriculum in retailing, made possible by this fund, went into operation in the fall of 1944 under the direction of the newly appointed Assistant Professor of Retailing, Miss Jennie S Graham. In the spring of 1945 Colonel Mark DeWolfe Howe, who had been on leave of absence for somewhat more than two years, presented his resignation as Dean of the School of Law. Acting Dean Philip Halpern, who is now Counsel of the New York State Public Service Commission, has consented at great personal inconvenience to carry on the duties of the deanship on a part-time basis for the present. But he has asked to be relieved of this responsibility as soon as the enrollment of the School begins to increase again. Dr. Earl J. McGrath, Dean of Administration, who had been on leave of absence for two years while serving as Lieutenant Commander in the Navy, returned to his post in December, 1944. In June 1945 he resigned to accept the deanship of the College of Liberal Arts of the State University of lowa. The Council appointed in his place, Dr. Claude E. Puffer, who had served for three years as Acting Dean of the School of Business Administration. Since the establishment of the School of Nursing its executive head has borne the title of Director. Under her leadership the School has had a truly remarkable development. The scope of its offerings has been constantly enlarged and its enrollment has increased with great rap:dity. Although it is a newcomer to the group of university schools of nursing, it has received the approval of all the state and national agencies concerned with establishing standards in nursing education. In June, 1945 the Council voted to change the title of the Director, Mrs. Anne W. Sengbusch, to that of Dean. �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 4 THE ENROLLMENT AND THE BUDGET FOR 1945-1946 The low point in the University's enrollment was reached in the year 1943-1944. During the year under review the enrollment of the regular day division increased 3.46%. The enrollment of the Summer Session increased 23.43%. The enrollment of Millard Fillmore College increased 16.58%. The increase in the total University enrollment was 17.08%. The total enrollment of the University 4641 as compared with 3964 in the preceding year. In preparing the budget estimates for the year 194V1946, the estimating officers were obliged to take into account a number of actual And foreseeable happenings which would affect unfavorably the relation between the University's income and its expenditures. AH military units except those in the Medical and Dental Schools had already been discontinued. The Army A.S.T.P. Unit in the Medical School had been reduced in size, and notice had been given that it would be withdrawn within the next academic year. It was assumed that the Navy V-12 Unit would be withdrawn at aDproximately the same time. The E.S.M.W.T. Program, which had relieved the general University budget of certain items in the categories both of administration and instruction, had been discontinued. Members of the instructional staff on leave of absence for Government service were already beginning to return and it was anticipated that most of the absentees would resume their places on the salary rolls of the University within the coming year. While the student enrollment appeared to have taken a definite upward turn, large further increases would remain highly problematical as long as ex;stine Selective Service regulations were in effect. Taking all these factors into account, the Chancellor presented, and the Council adopted on June 29th, 1945 a budget for the next academic year carrying a substantial operating deficit. Moreover, the budget as adopted included a transfer to estimated income for 1945-1946 of as large a proportion of the operating sutdlus of the preceding year as was judged to be safe. This is the first time in thirteen years that the Council has been asked to approve a budget carrying more than a nominal estimated deficit. It is to be hoped, of course, that during the year savinrs in the appropriations can be made, and that perhaps some of the adverse conditions which had to be prepared for will not actually be realized. Alumni Loyalty Fund The group which more than any other has reason to be concerned with the University's welfare is, of course, the alumni body. Until recently only scattered efforts had been made to establish an alumni fund sustained by annual contributions. Two years ago, the General Alumni Board addressed itself vigorously to this project. It conducted, almost entirely through the mails, a systematic campaign for subscriptions to the Alumni Lovaity Fund. A surorisinely large number of graduates responded to the was appeal, and the total amount of the contributions was greatly in excess of any sum previously collected. Especially welcome were the contributions which came from service men and women stationed all over the world, many of them accompanied by expressions of the contributors' desire to do all in their power to advance the interests of the University. During the year under review the Alumni Loyalty Fund campaign has met with an even more widespread response and the amount subscribed is substantially larger. It may now be assumed that the Fund will continue to grow and that it will soon produce an important addition to the University's annual income. THE CENTENNIAL On May 11th, 1846, the Legislature of the State of New York passed an act incorporating the University of Buffalo. The petitioners for this charter were primarily interested in securing authorization for the establishment of a college of medicine. Nevertheless, they had the foresight to ask for a university charter entitling the new institution to "confer such literary honors, degrees and diplomas as are usually granted by any university, college or seminary of learning in the United States". And, indeed, the terminology used throughout the act of incorporation reveals the intent of the petitioners to lay the foundations fir an institution of wider scope than a medical college. Contrary to the usual practice of the day, the University was chartered as a non-sectarian institution. Instruction in medicine, which was the purpose sought by the incorporators, began in the autumn of 1846. The original faculty contained several physicians already distinguished in their profession who later became outstanding figures in the annals of American medicine. As the members of the Council and most friends of the University know, many years elapsed before the original plan of the founders to establish a university in fact as well as in name was realized. The Medical Department existed alone for forty years. Then, in not too rapid succession, departments of pharmacy, law and dentistry were added. Not until 1913 did the University come to include a college of arts and sciences. Thus the usual evolutionary process of American universities was here reversed. But The normal evolutionary trend asserted itself following the establishment of the College of Arts and Sciences, which has in the last twenty-five years given birth to schools of Business Administration, Education, Social Work, Nursing and a Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. In view of the fact that the Medical School is the only part of the University which will actually be one hundred years old, the Council has already decided that the anniversary observances should stress particularly the University's contribution to medical education, to the advancement of medical science and to the elevation of the standards of medical practice in this region during the past century. Its tentative plans include conferences and symposia conducted by eminent authorities in the field of medicine from other academic centers. The Council also expects to take advantage of this anniversary to ask the friends of the University for gifts both for general and for special purposes to enable the institution to enlarge and improve its service to the Niagara Frontier and to the nation. The appeal for funds will emphasize the peculiar needs of the Medical School at this stage of its development, needs which the impending changes in medical education make especially pressing. Respectfully submitted, SAMUEL P. CAPEN _ A MESSAGE TO ALL U. B. CIVILIAN ALUMNI The University has continuous requests for men and women to fill positions. However, with the large number of returning veterans, more available positions should be in our files. Will you take an active part by keeping the Personnel Office posted about job openings? The following form may be used for convenience. Also you may write or call Dr. Mazie Wagner or Mr. Roger Gratwick, Personnel Office. Please note that part-time jobs for veterans are needed urgently.

Gentlemen: The annual report of the Comptroller and Treasurer for the fiscal year which ended June 30, 1945 is presented herewith. The Balance Sheet, Exhibit "A", shows total Assets of $14,625,170.10, distributed as follows: Endowment Assets $6,944,-664.08; Plant Assets, $7,118,091-80; and Operating Assets $562,414.22. Schedule "A-l" is a schedule of the Special Purpose Funds as at June 30, 1945. This schedule merits the special attention of the members of the Council and friends of the University. It is an impressive list of 126 funds established by friends of the University who have sought, by gift or bequest, to satisfy some partciular need of the University. Nine of these funds represent Professorships; 85 represent Lectureships, Scholarships, or Prize Funds; and the remainder provide Endowment for either General Purposes of the University or for some other particular purpose. These funds have become more important to the University than the donors could possibly have foreseen. They help to make up the difference between the income from student fees and the actua! cost of operating the University. These funds, both General Purpose and Special Purpose, now constituting the Endowment of the University, are very generous but are in no way adequate for a University the size of ours. They furnish only 20% of the annual income of the University, leaving 80% to be met from student fees. Many needs remain to be satisfied: the need for more endowments of Professorships to enable the University to attract and hold more Professors of outstanding intellectual attainments; the need for the endowment of additional scholarships to help defray the expense of educating young persons of high scholastic quality; the need for funds for scientific research which the University must undertake in ever greater measure if it is to keep pace with other modern, progressive institutions; and, the need for unrestricted endowment to permit the administration of the Un'versity to expand and improve its general educational facilities. These are some of the needs which the officers of the University point out to its Council and friends. It is their hope that, as the University next year celebrates the One Hundredth year of its founding, many more persons will provide for her needs by increased gifts to her Endowment Funds. There is no surer way of perpetuating the record of one's interest in the institution. The total value of Land, Buildings, and Equipment on June 30, 1945, was $7,117,-987.71. The University buildings are in good condition, despite their heavy wartime usage. The trend toward declining enrollments, felt so sharply during the early war years, has slackened. In fact, a reversal of this trend seems to be in progress. With only two exceptions, every division of the University showed an increase in enrollment during the year under review with a resultant increase in income from student fees. The two exceptions were the School of Dentistry and the School of Pharmacy where a further decline in income from student fees occurred. In the School of Dentistry this decline came as a result of the termination of the Army Training Program which closed its unit in the Dental School as of September 23, 1944. Fees received from students in all divisions of the University during the year covered by this report totaled $854,672.39, or 79.7% of the total income of the University, as against $787,891.61, or 76.8% in the preceding year, an increase of $66,780.78. The increase in expenditures has more than kept pace with the increase in income. For example, salaries of instruction for the year under review showed an increase of $105,061.45 over the salaries of the preceding year. The sharp increase was due almost entirely to the extent to which the University budget again had to assume salaries of instruction which during the preceding year had been borne by the Army Air Forces Training Program. That program which was in ooeration from February 28, 1943 to the spring of 1944 and which embraced the training of 500 men, absorbed a far greater share of instructional costs than did the Army Specialized Training Program which covered the training of only 300 men from July 1, 1944 to March 31, 1945. The return of these teaching salaries to the University budget accounts for the above considerable increase in the item "Salaries of Instruction". The same factor, likewise, accounts for the increase of $35,896.97 in the cost of operation and maintenance of University buildings and heating plant. The Army Air Forces Program in the preceding year furnished a greater offset to the cost of operating and maintaining buildings used in its Program than did the Army Specialized Training Program which used the University buildings less extensively. Administrative allowances and fees were also considerably less under the smaller Army Specialized Training Program than under the Army Air Forces Program. On the whole, how ever, the Army Specialized Training Program made very good use of existing University facilities and helped to a considerable extent to relieve the University of instructional and operational costs which' would have been burdensome during the wax years when normal student income was sharply curtailed. On June 30, 1945, the stocks and bonds in the University portfolio which had been purchased by the University, and excluding gifts, were classified as follows on the basis nf market worth: United States, State, Municipal and Foreign Government bonds, 30.03%; Railroad Bonds, 3.80%; Public Utility Bonds, 3.44%; Industrial Bonds, .85%; Public Utility Preferred Stocks, 13%; Industrial Preferred Stocks, 4.62%; Investment Trust Preferred Stocks, 1.48%; Bank Preferred Stocks, .65% ; Railroad Common Stocks, .72% ; Public Utility Common Stocks, 3.10%; Industrial Common Stocks, 20.80%; Bank Capital Stocks, 5.38%; Insurance Common Stocks, 7.71%; Investment Trust Common Stocks, 4.42%. The market value on June 30, 1945, of the stocks and bonds in the University's portfolio was 108.46% of their book value. Plans and specifications for the new Engineering building were completed in the late summer, and construction will be begun in the current month. The building will be three stories in height and will be located on the southerly side of the campus on a line with the University Bookstore, the center line of the face of the building on an axis with the center line of the southerly face of Lockwood Memorial Library. From the rear of the building an Engineering Laboratory, 72 by 100 feet, will extend. The structure will constitute the center unit of an Engineering building to which wings will be subsequently added. The cost of the presbe approximately ent building will $285,000. At June 30, 1945, the close of the year covered by this report, $179,725 toward this cost had been raised by a committee headed by Myron S. Short, Chairman of the Committee on University Development. The Alumni Loyalty Fund now numbers 850 Alumni contributors who thus far this year have contributed $10,518 to the Loyalty Fund. The Council and administrative officers of the University are deeply appreciative of this splendid accomplishment. Other gifts and bequests received during the year covered by this report include: Addition to the George P. and Sara N. McArthur Fund, $26,172.99; Mr. and Mrs. George C. Rice, for the establishment of the George C. and Ida K. Rice Memorial Fund, $10,000; Estate of Evelyn Rumsey Cary, for addition to the Dr. Charles Cary Memorial Fund, $6,114.24; John Wood, for addition to the Lockwood Memorial Library Endowment Fund, $5,000; Uebelhoer Bros., Inc. for the establishment of the Ueblehoer Brothers Scholarship, $5,000; C.I.BiA.

During the current academic year, and for several years to come, the University will receive substantial income from the Government Program for the training of re turned servicemen under Public Law 16 and Public Law 346 of the 78th Congress. During the second semester of the academic year 1944-1945, 120 veterans received instruction under these Programs.

These prospects are promising because of the increased civilian enrollment and because of the opportunity which the Government has afforded to returned veterans to obtain a University education. For the further development and expansion of the University it must, however, continue to rely on the support of its friends and its Alumni. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE D. CROFTS, Comptroller.

We are anxious to hear from you, whether you happen to be one of our oldest and most experienced alumni or a member of the class that was graduated at the last commencement. We want your point of view on every matter that interests you. Let us know about it, whether it be a mere detail or a recommendation in regard to basic policy, and whether your motive is to eliminate a cause of annoyance or to establish a major improvement The achievements of the last twenty-five years have been great indeed, and we wish to make continued progress. This is your chance to influence the developments of the next generation. If we all pull together with a sense of common enterprise, the University of Buffalo will continue to expand its eminence as one of the great universities of the land. For the Committee, J. I.

Abbott The Lockwood Memorial Library, which was opened in 1935, is admittedly one of the showplaces of the campus. Throughout the year, parents and visitors come in an impressed stream to gaze at the Tudor oak of the Main Reading Room and at the carved ceiling of the Librarian's Study. Presiding over this splendor with a staff of three (Anne McCarthy Ludlow, BA '36, MA f39, Ivah R. Sweeney, and Janet E. Brown, BA "42, MA '45), and keeping an experienced eye on the efficient functioning of both campus and professional school libraries is Professor Charles D. Abbott, Director of the University of Buffalo Libraries, Rhodes Scholar, past president of the University chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, and authority on modern poetry, bibliography and English literature. Despite this impressive array of attainments. Mr. Abbott derives some of his greatest satisfaction from his domestic accomplishments. Living outside the small town of Pavilion in the Genesee Valley, he commutes the 53 miles to the university twice a week, and in the summer his car is always laden with eggs, lettuce and obscure vegetables which he distributes with an immodest pride. At home he gazes affectionately on Benjamin (a gander) and Sir Francis (his prize drake); hopefully on his fifty chickens and five rabbits; tolerantly on his three children (David, Agnes and Neil), two dogs (Sing Sing and Gudule), and one cat (Belial), all overseen by his versatile wife. He can discuss the merits of one canning system over another with as much authority as he can state Dryden's death date, or the distinguishing characteristics of a first edition of Moby Dick. A born storyteller, he takes equal pleasure in relating the eccentricities of poetlaureate John Masefield and those of his local gas station manager Charlie Gerlach. His election last year to the Pavilion School Board indicated his complete adoption by the townspeople as one of themselves —an honor accorded to few outsiders. Quietly inconspicuous in University affairs, he is a man whose influence is widely felt, though few students except those enrolled in his English courses ever come to know him well. A more familiar figure is Ruth Bartholomew, associate librarian. Because their dealings with her generally pertain to such matters as requests for stack permission, appeals on fines, and settlements for lost books, students have come to think of her as representing solely the business side of the library. However, it is thanks to her talent for organization that the library's social events are so successful, that the innumerable teas held there while Norton Hall was out of use were managed with such skill. Her contagious enthusiasm is well-known, and when turned on such The above article is the fifth in the series written by guest authors about the University's administration. The alumni staff is indebted to those who have contributed so materially to the Bulletin. projects as Red Cross knitting, it aroused the entire library staff to produce such a quantity of knitted garments as was not equalled anywhere else on campus. In orT'campus hours, she is highly regarded as an accomplished musician (she studied piano at Oberlin), and as a delightful entertainer of small children, of whom she is uniformly fond. Because she has been with the library since its inception in Foster Hall, there is no part of its functioning in which she is not interested, and with the secretarial assistance of Ruth Schiferle Neubeck, BA '45, she supervises such diverse problems as provisioning the wellstocked supply room, and securing obscure material on inter-library loan for professors doing research. Behind the seemingly automatic routine of circulation lies a complicated network of organization which makes it possible for things to run as smoothly as they generally do. New book lists and second-hand book catalogs are steadily combed to fill gaps in the library's holdings. Headed by Margarst Y. Johnston, BA '31, LS '31, the cataloging department goes through necessary routine on every book received. Also, over 400 magazines are subscribed to, and back-files of important journals must be acquired. The staff at the Main Desk and at the Reserve Room desk have the difficult and thankless task of maintaining sufficient quiet to accommodate those students who are really working. During the war, with registration low and Norton Union facilities limited, the library became an unofficial if slightly frowned upon—social gathering place, and the usual restrictions enforcing absolute silence were somewhat relaxed. Now, with both reading rooms back almost to pre-war capacities, with the Reserve Room handling from 450 to 550 people a day, and the Main Reading Room nearly 400 more, it has again become necessary to emphasize no-talking regulations. The Browsing Room, where talking and smoking are permitted at any time, is nearly always filled to its limited capacity, and an overflow of sociable students may be found congregated in halls throughout the build- — ing. For students who are not enrolled during the summer, for alumni and others who wish to continue using the library's facilities, the library maintains an organization known as the Friends of the Lockwood Library. Membership in the Friends is available to all, at fees ranging from two dollars a year for students and alumni to one hundred and fifty dollars for life memberships, and mem- �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 2 bers have the privileges of the library at all times. They hold special exhibits several times a year, which are set up in the second floor Exhibition Room by Mr. Abbott and his staff; they have occasional teas, and they sponsor the program of Christmas choral singing which is the library's largest social event. Most of all, through their membership dues, they enable Mr. Abbott to carry on the library's rare book collecting. Mr. Lockwood's magnificent gift of rare books (part of which is on exhibition now) came with the building in 1935, and provided the backbone of the library's rare book collection. Many years later, George Nathan Newman's generous gift of books furnished a similar basis for building an American collection. In the meantime, through the Carnegie Corporation, the Modern Poetry Collection was made possible. It is in the field of modern poetry that the library hopes to make its unique contribution to the scholarly world, in making available to the student of twentieth century poetry this collecion, already numbering nearly 10,000 volumes of first editions, and with them a collateral collection of manuscripts contributed by over 300 modern poets. With the war over, the library's most serious efforts, under Mr. Abbott's supervision, will be put into the further expansion and development of this project which has already added so greatly to the University's academic stature.

Barrel!, LLB '40, assistant field director for the American Red Cross, is in Honshu, Japan. He writes of the beautiful rolling, green country with high mountains in the background and a temperature now of zero. Despite the drop the mercury, the buildings are of the thinnest possible paper-like wood, and there is no heating system. Stoves even now are being installed, but he and his companions are doubtful as to their effectiveness. One of the most colorful sights of the moment is the natives' return trek to their homes, their household goods piled high on every imaginable type of conveyance.

Our boats were first to beach on the sacred soil of Japan on Aug. 29th and to evacuate the first POW's from camps Omori and Shinagawa. All the atrocity stories you have read are true. Camp Shinagawa, the "model" hospital for POWs was utterly inadequate by our standards, as you have no doubt read. They made only a gesture at sanitation, e.g. to rid a "ward" offleas, they tied a dog in the hut during the day, removed him and washed him each night. The great majority of Japs are primitive, simple-minded folk, incapable of self- govenment. Lt. Richard J. Jones, MA '42, MD '43. — J. Coniglio, PhG '38; Wal- lace D. Redman. Soc.

The structure of each of its twelve divisions is still intact. Like every other institution of higher education, the University experienced heavy losses in enrollment during the war years. The total civilian enrollment in the full time day divisions declined more than 50%. The professional schools which were not called upon to train military personnel were the hardest hit. The student bodies of the Schools of Law, Pharmacy. Business Administration and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences were reduced to a mere handful. These losses, however, were in a large measure offset by the soldiers, sailors and civilians to whom the University furn'shed special training for war purposes. Between the beginning of 1943 and the summer of 1944 some 2500 student soldiers and sailors received instruction through the College of Arts and Sciences and the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry. Courses offered to war workers under government subsidies enrolled between eight and nine thousand individuals. Throughout the war period the financial stability of the University has been preserved. This fortunate result has been made possible by the University's extensive contracts with the government for the instruction justreferred to, and by the generous action of the faculty in assuming the burden of this instruction without additional cost to the University. All members of the institution, alumni, Council and students are under a deep debt of gratitude to the faculty for its cheerful assumption of this heavy burden. No operating deficits were incurred during the war years. For the fiscal year which began July 1, 1945, the Council was forced to budget a deficit; the first in 13 years. Although the war with Japan had not yet ended, it was cl^ar that government contracts for training would be much reduced, and the prospects of increased civilian enrollment were very uncertain. These prospects brightened during the summer. A substantial increase in the enrollment of nearly every division is now a certainty. The University lost not only students during the war years but also many members of the faculty. Approximately 150 members of the teaching staff have been granted leaves of absence for war service. Although some of these men and have already returned, it will apparently be many months before all are released. women The immediate problem in all divisions is the reparation of the losses unavoidably incurred during the war and the resumption of educational progress. The staff of nearly every division has been busy for many months elaborating plans for changes and improvements. Space does not permit the listing of all these plans. Two projects may, however, be cited as a sample. Since the early part of this year a Lon^ Range Planning Committee with numerous sub-committees has been actively at work in the Medical School examining all phases of the School's educational operations and its relations with cooperating hospitals, and preparing a comprehensive plan for the next decade of its development. In the College of Arts and Sciences, a Committee on the Curriculum has been working for a full year analyzing the educational program of the College and preparing recommendations for its improvement. All officers of the University recognize that our foremost obligation is to returning veterans. Under a general Veteran's Committee on Educational Services representing the whole University, each division has been organizing its facilities in order to render to the veterans the most efficient and appropriate service. The faculty of each division is alert to the necessity of adapting the work of the University to the new conditions which it, together with all other institutions, faces in the post-war period. We are all proud of and grateful for the war service of the alumni and former students. It is clear that in the period just ahead, more than at any time in the past, the University will need the help and the sympathetic understanding of its alumni. Every officer of the institution is deeply impressed by the splendid record of the Alumni Loyalty Fund during these last two difficult years. Fortified by this tangible evidence of the support of its alumni, the University enters its centennial year with confidence and hope. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO YOUR PERSONAL PERSONNEL OFFICE Mr. Roger W. Gratwick, Lt. Rolfe W. DinwooaSe. Dr. Mazie E. Wagner The support and assistance given by the busy Personnel Office is wellknown to U. B. alumni. In addition to their huge job of helping to orient entering students and advising them in choice of study and majors, they also place many graduates in new jobs. During the absence of Dean Edward A. Jones, Director of the Office, who is on leave of absence while teaching in Europe, Dr. Mazie E. Wagner, BA '25, MA '27, and Mr. Roger W. Gratwick carry on the activities. The Personnel Office coordinates its work with the Veterans' Service Office which is under Dr. Lewis A. Froman. A great deal has been written about education of veterans under the G. I. Bill and Public Law 16 which has to do with veterans who have more than ten per cent disability. One of the most careful studies was made by Dr. Earl J. McGrath. BA '28, MA '30, when he was in the service. Dr. McGrath concludes among other things that after the war, colleges and universities located in large cities and those with high reputations will get by far the larger majority of the returning service men and women. In addition to being located in a city, the University can also be included in the second of these categories. Certainly it is a fact that a large number of veterans enroll in the University of Buffalo. It seems likely that at the opening of college this year between 225 and 250 veterans will be attending the University, almost all of these on a full time basis. Indications are that the academic ability of these students is even better than it was a year ago, and their motivation still continues very high. There have been several interesting individuals who have applied this fall. One older veteran, the father of several children, was ineligible for college work a year ago because he had not completed high school. This man went to high school at night and made an excellent record. He is now attending the University. Another much younger veteran . had an extremely poor report in high school. While in the service he had an excellent military record eventually winning a commission. His attitude on academic work changed materially. He put in considerable time in the service reading and studying On application for entrance to the University he was given a number of aptitude and content tests, and the results showed that he had raised his standing from the 4th or sth fifth of average high school students to the top 10 or 15 per cent of our entering freshmen. A few women veterans are starting at U. B. also. One came in the office the other day who had had some work here in the University prior to her service. She is now married and has a child. However, she wishes to continue her education along with her husband who is still in the Armed Forces Institute. She feels that after his discharge they will be able to continue their work together. Mr. Roger W. Gratwick, Assistant Dean of Students and Placement Director for Men, will be glad to advise any of our alumni on taking new or brush-up courses at the University, or in job placement. Call for Teachers Assistant Dean of Women Students, Dr. Mazie Earle Wagner of the Personnel Office, reports that during the past school year there has been a further increase over the previous year in the number of vacancies reported to the University's Teachers Placement Bureau. Since October 1, 1944, 394 vacancies have been reported, and they're still coming in daily. Many of these require experience and pay accordingly. The largest number of vacancies (69) was requested in science. About half of these required some mathematics teaching as well. The above article is the fourth in the series written by guest authors about the University's officers and offices. The alumni staff is indebted to those who haze contributed so materially to the Bulletin. * The second largest number was social studies with 57; English with 44; commercial with 38; language with 37; mathematics with 33; physical education with 29 (this might easily have been increased to twice the number if we had advertised that we train in this field); librarian, 24; art, 16 and counselors, 11. There was also a miscellaneous grouping of psychology, philosophy, nursery school, economics, junior high school, engineering, geography, etc. The language teachers were required perhaps more than any other group to teach outside of their fields. Many of the social studies teachers were also required to teach additional subjects. Of the 394, 23 were requests for colored teachers. It was not possible to fill any of these because of lack of candidates. There was also a trickle of requests for college teachers. All told, 24 of these came in. To offset the 394 vacancies, there were 38 placements made, 17 of whom took their first teaching positions. With more candidates, many more placements might easily have been made. The case of a young lady who took a commercial teaching vacancy without any educational requirements illustrates the shortage of teachers. Two of our May graduates acted as substitutes in the Buffalo schools and one in Lackawanna for the balance of the school year. More surprising than this, however, was the fact that a junior in physical education taught during May and June. If you wish a position teaching school, Dr. Wagner invites you to register. She further urges you to register early next spring for new jobs for 1946-47 since principals are getting their contracts out earlier and earlier. In case you would like to teach this fall or beginning next January, you can probably be readily placed. Twenty vacancies came in during the fall term last year, and there will probably be more during the current term. �3 ALUMNI BULLETIN ALUMNI IN BOMB RESEARCH! 6000 civilians and military personnel on the Pajarito Plateau, about one hour's drive from Santa Fe, New Mexico, four U. B. graduates were among the 1000 scientists working on the atomic bomb. At this town of Los Alamos, Sigmund P. Harris, BA '41, MA '43, Leonard Bogdan, BA '44, Fred H. Schmidt, MA '40, and Donald L. Woernley, BA '34, MA '40, all knew, along with the others, exactly what they were working on; 1000 scientists kept the secret for over two years from family, newsmen, and the worJd. A whole social world existed in nowhere in which people were married and babies were born nowhere. People died in a vacuum, autos and trucks crashed in a vacuum. Even the graduates of Los Alamos Ranch School, the institution which preceded Uncle Sam's Atomic Bomb Project Laboratory, ceased to be graduates of Los Alamos; they bounded direct from Public School No. 7 clear into the class-rooms of Harvard, Yale and other universities. And on days when the Alamos experimenters threw their atomic bombs about a little too vigorously and the windows of Santa Fe rattled onimously, calls at the news office or police station brought only "no speak English". The chain of secrecy was maintained from the big Eastern cities where workers were recruited clear through to the delivery of these workers at Los Alamos. The laboratory was in New Mexico; other units of work throughout the country are referred to as factories. In one of these were two other U. B. graduates-—Robert M. Coleman, BA '33, and John A. Swartout, BA '37, who worked at bomb research in Richland, Washington. The latter first worked on the project as Assistant Section Chief in the Metallurgical Laboratory of Chemistry, Chicago, to assist in the development of the adsorption process for the separation of plutonium from uranium and its fission products. Dr. Swartout then progressed to the Clinton Laboratories in Tennessee where he met two other U. B. men, Dr. Russell R. Williams, Jr., BA 41, and T/Sgt. Jack A. Marinsky, BA "39. In October, '44, Dr. Swartout was included in a group of 30 chemists serving as consultants in special phases of the process at Richland. He is now enthused over the impending rapid expansion of radiochemU. B. In a secret town of istry. Many other U. B. alumni helped directly with the project all over the country, and Alma Mater is proud of our contribution in bringing the war to a sudden or indirectly close. ALUMNI OFFICE CHANGES After doing a fine job as Editor of the Alumni Bulletin through last June, Evelyn "Jaeckle Noshay, BA '38, has been appointed assistant in mathematics at the University this fall. The Bulletin is being edited by Pauline I. Miller, BS(Bus) '35, Acting Alumni Secretary, assisted by Mrs. Jeanne W. Warner, Alumni Office Assistant. Added to the office staff is Bette I. Schill. A LETTER FROM BILL COOK war, poor Alumni Secretary on leave of absence since 1940, Major William G. Cook, BS '27, is at present executive officer in charge of the Heavy Mortar Training Center in China. He writes: "V-J Day, 1945 A war ended today, and like millions of others, I am quite happy at the prospect of going home in the reasonably near future. A prediction I ventured to make nearly five years ago seems about to be justified. When in September, 1940, I turned in my key to the alumni office and put on an Army uniform, I hazarded a guess that 1 would take it off some time in 1946, and probably not before. There seems to be no doubt now that I shall be back in time for the University's 100th anniversary. My brief overseas experiences look pale by comparison with those of so many alumni who have served under the guns of war. Mine are like those of a tourist who stays in one country a little longer than the standard tour provides for. I have seen the Pacific from a transport. I have felt the impact of the Mysterious East, though its sights, sounds and smells are not exactly mysterious. I have traveled a bit in India by airplane, troop train, river boat, rickshaw and jeep. I have flown across the Himalayas. And I have seen a part, at least, of backwoods China. Nowhere have I felt more at home, away from home, than among the Chinese. Their psychology is not unlike ours. They understand our type of humor, as the audience reaction at any American movie will attest. They are friendly, co-operative, even embarrassingly neighborly. They are ingenious and industrious, and are beginning to feel the stirrings which energized our own country in its early days. But I have been struck especially by their interest in education. They have a long distance to go still, before it will be within reach of the common man, but those who have sampled it have shown a strong intent to keep it alive, despite the handicaps of communications and a disrupted economy. When I was stationed at Kunming, I learned something of the wartime history of Chinese higher education. There is in that city an institution known as the Associated Southwestern Universities, representing three universities which were driven from their homes by war. Nankai and Peiching universities were at Tientsin, and Chinghua University at Peiping. When war came, they didn't close their doors. Instead, students and teachers, united in catastrophe, moved their establishments book by book and stone by stone a thousand miles inland, out of reach of the invader. And they are in full operation in Kunming, waiting only for the signal to return to their former sites. A similar story could be told of the other institutions of higher learning which fled before the Japanese. That story has made me appreciate all the more the educational opportunity offered to American boys and girls. I'm sure that if our alumni knew that story, they too would feel a deeper sense of gratitude that education has been made so easy for them to get, and of loyalty to the University and its supporters who have helped them obtain it. You will be interested to learn that the name of one of Buffalo's former teachers is not unknown here. He is Dr. Oliver J. Lockhart, onetime member of the economics faculty. His name is still remembered by students and teachers of economics for his part in reforming the republic's monetary policy many years ago. I wish you success in this year's alumni program, and of course I wish to be reenrolled in the Alumni Fund. Yours as ever, William G. Cook, Major, Infantry." PHARMACY ALUMNI CREATE SCHOLARSHIP Partners of Sdnes Drug Stores, Niagara Falls, N. V., James S. Hill, PhG '26, William F. Beck, PhG '14, and Clayton S. Heinze, PhG '10, have established a full tuition $1600 Pharmacy scholarship starting this fall. The first winner is Marilyn Scott of Niagara Falls. MEDICAL ROUND TABLE An original radio series, "Your Health and Happiness", was presented over WBEN on Saturday afternoons during the summer. Sponsored jointly by the Medical Society of Erie County and the Post-Graduate Department of the University of Buffalo, a panel of doctors and laymen discussed major medical and health problems, their prevention and cure. Among the participants were 30 of U. B."s medical faculty and alumni. Arthur I. Goldberg, BA '31, and Dr. John D. Naples of the Medical Society were moderators of the discussions which covered such current subjects as tuberculosis, rabies, infantile paralysis, common stomach aches and medically discharged veterans. �4 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI SERVICE NEWS AWARDS LEGION OF MERIT Tech. 4th gr.

Yellen spent iy2 years in the Aleutians and then one year in England where he received the Legion of Merit. "We worked two crew shifts in surgery, and hours meant nothing. We had as many as 55 and 60 major operations a day. Those were the days when I wished I had Dr. (Ward) Plummer, Dr. (Nelson G.) Russell, and Dr. (John) Fairbairn with me." (These three latter U. B. graduates were prominent Army doctors in the last war.) WRITTEN TO THE ALUMNI OFFICE "While transacting ship's business in Manila, P. 1., I met Lt.

ALUMNI FUND GROWS THREE MONTHS LEFT TO SHARE! steadily growing '45 Alumni Fund A attests the sincere interest of our alumni and friends in the future of U. B. Having come through the war years with structure intact, although somewhat narrowed due to many of our faculty leaving, the University faces a period of enormous educational needs and adjustments. The many new gifts plus those from our regular givers are proving that the loyal support needed has a firm basis. The great number of gifts from our men and women serving overseas are an inspiration; our alumni have offered their lives for country and also give freely to assist Alma Mater. They have earned the victory.

Each man here feels that he is a chosen being—usually one out of ten who were eligible to come and wanted to, got here." Dr. Jones enjoys France with its basques, its leisurely attitude, its opera, but not the fleas and Hce. Business Administration Dr. Claude E. Puffer, acting dean of the School of Business Administration since 1938, has been appointed Dean of Administration.

Instructor in creative writing at Millard Fillmore college, Lloyd Graham finds a pattern for world peace in the accomplishments of the "desperate people" of the original 13 United States. His new book is The Desperate People. CAMPUS RECONVERTS U. B. HAS DOUBLE RECONVERSION PROGRAM In addition to the annual change-over from Summer Session to the fall term, U. B. is shifting from war schedules to peace. The military air left the campus with the departure of the Air Cadets last Spring. The Army and Navy are still holding forth in the Medical and Dental Schools, however. Increase in enrollment began with the summer session which was 8.4% over last year with 701 students. The fall session, including 400 veterans, began on September 26 with a tremendous increase in enrollment. The figures are not completed at this writing due to the rush at the Registrar's Office. The accelerated program enabling students to complete the regular four-year college course in three years is continuing, many having started this in July. Training in Red Cross Social Service work is being offered for college graduates interested in working with families of men and women in the armed forces and with World War II veterans. Best news to students is the re-opening of Norton Hall for student activities after two and a half years of Army occupation. On September 28, a house-warming dance proved to be full of fun and a fore-runner of much student activity. This special double-sized issue was published to cover the news accumulated from September 15. The color addiJune through tion will be used again occasionally during the year.

Dr. Samuel P. Capen, Chancellor, James McC. Mitchell, LLB 97, Chairman of the Council, and George D. Crofts, Comptroller, were unanimously enthusiastic about the fine record made by the fund, even at this early stage in its growth. It represents a very important source of support for the University, especially when it is remembered that its annual quality makes it the equivalent of income from a very large amount of invested endowment. Fund Totals Reported LaVerne H. Brucker, DDS '21, Chairman of the Committee on Funds, reported that the 1945 loyalty fund as of June 5, the date of the meeting, totalled $5,557.30 contributed by 499 donors and that an additional $829-50 had been sent in by 259 Senior Memorial pledgors. He also announced that the fund committee had voted to discontinue the Senior Memorial Pledge system as such and to incorporate it into the Alumni Loyalty Fund henceforth. Among gifts received for the funds were many from servicemen overseas. Perhaps the most touching of all the contributions was the $100.00 sent in by one of our graduates who only recently was liberated from a Japanese prison after three years' imprisonment. His note accompanying the gift said: "... Can't begin to realize what it means its too wonto be a free American derful." — Other CommitteeReports Adele Boehmke Morris, BA '36, Soc '40, Chairman of the Committee on Associations and Clubs, reported that branch club activity was at a standstill. Of the divisional associations, many were active this year, especially the Alumnae with a program of several meetings. The Arts, Business Administration, Dentistry and Social Work associations also have shown renewed or continued vitality this year. The work of the Committee on Bequests has been continuing in ways difficult to evaluate, reported Chairman George G. Davidson, Jr., LLB '97. G. Thomas Ganim, BS '24, LLB '27, reporting for the Committee on Public Relations, explained that its work consisted mainly of assisting the other committees. 1945 FUND FIGURES iuinL3 A3 ur j*ji>e j, iwj Alumni Loyalty Fund: 499 $5557.30 Senior Memorial Pledges: 259 829.50 BY SCHOOLS 110 622.25 Arts Ad. 190.00 Business 37 Dental 94 1337.50 Education* 15 67.00 Law 78 814.05 17.00 Library Science* 3 Medical 113 2126.00 44.50 Nursing 12 26 277.00 Pharmacy 8 Social Work 32.00 20.00 Anal.

We wish them success and happiness in their resumption of civilian life.

The speaker asserted that the serious professional situation for the next generation imposes a grave responsibility upon women, who constitute a majority of college graduating classes.

Chancellor Capen pointed out in his Baccalaureate address that, with these states trampled and even with a successful organization of United Nations to abolish war, we will not be free of the threat of totalitarianism. On the contrary, he said, "the threat will be all the more menacing because it will henceforth be subtle and concealed." 133 Are Graduated Degrees, certificates and diplomas were awarded 133 graduates; and, in addition, seven of the dental graduates were commissioned into the U.

No. 4 L^oniutt ~Jhe lAniversitu r^eaiitrarl To answer all these and hundreds of questions like them the University Registrar's Office was established by Dr. Capen in 1928 as a central repository for student records, under the direction of Miss Emma E. Deters. Before that year each school or college office of the University had its own Registrar and Miss Deters served as Registrar of the College of Arts and Sciences. The central office now serves many purposes of which a few follow. It is an office of general information. It maintains an index of every student who ever attended the University since 1846, including the school or division wherein he was registered. Detailed records of every student have been kept since the establishment of the central office. This office serves as the administrative office for all seeking degrees with the exception of those in a few of the professional schools. Room assignments and reservations for all campus buildings are made through this office. A University faculty file is maintained. Campus class sched- EMMA E. DETERS, REGISTRAR Have you ever wondered just what the University Registrar and her office force of very attractive young women keep so busy doing behind the scenes? If you have ever waited with a question and then almost miraculously received the answer, some of this may be "old stuff" to you. But you may be one of the people who didn't know all the questions that can be answered by a most courteous staff. No one who comes on business is ever turned away curtly; no one leaves the office feeling his problem is anything but the most important problem the staff has to face at that moment. It's a gift to be able to make each inquirer feel necessary and not intruding; and it's one Miss Emma E. Deters, the University Registrar, herself exemplifies in all her contacts with people. If you could spend a day in the office you'd understand why this is so unusual, considering the kinds of requests made. Here are a few: "I am a veteran and want to start University study; what do I do?" "I am having trouble with one course. May I drop it now without getting a failing grade?" "I have just learned that I shall have enough credits to graduate next month; what do I do now?" "There was a student named Brown at the University with me in 1918. Can you help me locate him?" "I took a course in 1919 from a man who went to the Middle East. Could you give me his present address?" "My daughter is in a class and I must get hold of her right away. Can you get a message to her immediately?" "I have a conflict in examinations. What shall I do?" "I graduated from the University in 1935 and still now have a chance to teach. ules and examination schedules are made up here. The office collects an immense amount of statistical data including such information as student averages, rank in class, sororities and fraternities, etc. Approximately 2000 transcripts are issued annually from this office. A separate file for veterans is maintained. The mail, the telephone, the window at the counter all bring in requests to be answered, responsibilities to be carried out, and problems to be solved. When one looks at registration figures and realizes that the pre-war registration of the University was over 5000, although it started almost 100 years ago with a much more modest figure, need the question be asked: "What happens in the Registrar's Office?" Do I meet the State requirements?" "I am applying for a graduate fellowship at three Universities. Will you send out transcripts for me?" "Has the student enrollment increased much in the last ten years?" "What division of the University has the heaviest enrollment?" "We should like to hold a meeting on the Campus next Tuesday night. May we use the Hayes Auditorium?" "I gave an examination to a class five years ago. Do you have a copy of that examination?" The above article was written by a member of the University faculty. The alumni staff is deeply im'-ebted to the quest editors who have contributed so substantially to an understanding of administrative functions, as well as to the quality Ofthe B'-LLETIN. GENERAL ALUMNI BOARD TO MEET Notices have been sent to members of the General Alumni Board informing them of the annual dinner meeting to be held at the Hotel Lenox on Tuesday, June 5. All members are especially urged to attend this meeting at which will be discussed plans for alumni participation in the celebration of the University's One Hundredth Anniversary next year. The excellent progress of the Alumni Loyalty Fund during the past year and plans for its future development will also be subjects for discussion. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO SURGEON SPENT 3 YEARS IN JAP PRISON CAMP ALUMNI DISPLAY FORTITUDE, GALLANTRY IN BATTLE VANDERBOGET LIBERATED FROM JAP PRISON Nothing daunted by his three-year incarceration in Bilibid Prison, Col. Carlton L. Vanderboget, MD '10, shows few ill effects of his injuries and prison experiences. On March 26, 1942, his skull was fractured, both ear drums ruptured and his back and arms lacerated by a Japanese aerial bomb. During his imprisonment he contracted malaria, dysentery and beri beri, from all of which he recovered "promptly." Certainly his happy smile gives support to the statement that he's "as good as ever" except for loss of hearing in his right ear and the fact that his weight dropped from 240 pounds to a low of 151. Since "there were practically no drugs at all I owe my recovery entirely to the excellent surgical treatment I received from the American medical officer who looked after me." Having arrived in the Philippines on November 20, 1941, he was the surgeon at Stotsenberg, adjoining Clark Field, when the Japs attacked. After Stotsenberg was abandoned on December 24, he went to Bataan and assumed command of a jungle hospital. He was acting as service of supply surgeon when wounded. Sixty-one years old, he has been in the Army for 28^ years, serving in Mexico with General Pershing and in France during World War I. ....

Ireland. Capt., M.C., on it. This turned out to be Boyd Ireland, MD '40. I went over to see him and in his same organization was Maj. Milford Childs, MD '40, Flight Surgeon, so I brought both of them to the hospital for dinner and there we found Capt. Daniel Botsford, MD '41. One of these days we will have a real reunion." In January, Pfc. Harold H. Johnson, BS (Bus) '43, wrote from France, where he was with the Supreme Hqs., AEF: "I ran into 3 U. of B. students. They were stationed at the same town I was, oddly enough. I met Alan Boyce, BS (Bus) '43, at a unit dance, Dick Gedney standing beside me in a G. I. truck and Dave Zimmerman (Arts '45) in my barracks. Meeting people I know over here is getting to be such a common occurrence that I've ceased to be surprised any more. The other day I would have sworn I saw Dean Park and Chancellor Capen. But both of these men were wearing those silly looking tarns, so I was sure it wasn't they, because only a Frenchman would wear one. They are both still on campus, aren't they?" From Luxembourg, Sgt. Carlton L. Krathwohl, BA '38, EdM '42, sent his contribution to the Alumni Loyalty Fund with a note saying: "Can you imagine being pleased to have a note requesting a donation? Well, that was the case! .. Best wishes for a successful campaign and soon (I hope) I might be back in Buffalo; I think the veterans' benefits might open up possibilities for reestablishing connections with U. of B." Lt. Col. Arthur S. Lawless, LLB '36, Adjutant General of the sth Fighter Command, reports: "The Alumni Bulletin has been reaching me regularly tho I've failed to point out these months the change in rank and APO you'll note above. We came in on the initial landing in the Philippines and have moved 3 times since. One unforgettable memory is that of being attacked by Japanese Paratroopers and Infantry, partially surrounded and cut off for 3 days before the Infantry finally arrived and relieved us. We did all right for Air Corps 'Prima Donnas.' Our present Headquarters must have been a 'Country Club' before the war with tennis courts and swimming pools. It is still lovely despite the damage and you have no idea how wonderful paved streets, curbs and sidewalks seem after 18 months of New Guinea Jungle." set . Goldman, '32 Metzger, '30 Capt. Harold L. Goldman, LLB '32, who entered the Army more than 4 years and who has taken part in the African, Siciliciti and Italian campaigns, has been with Supreme Headquarters on the Western Front: Lt. Comdr. Frederick /. Metzger, DDS '30. is now the senior Dental Officer of the U. S. Coast Guard in the First Kaval District. Ago So many of the letters received by the Alumni Office or by other Campus offices contain interesting notes that we are printing excerpts from some of them. From New Delhi, India, 2nd Lt. Nicholas G. Chaltas, LLB '36, writes: "I am enclosing a small donation to the Alumni Fund Please send me the Alumni Bulletin at my 'new' address. At present I am otherwise engaged, but still in the practice of 'law' with the Headquarters, Services of Supply, India-Burma Theater, with a swivel chair in the Judge Advocate's office.1' From the Philippines came the following from Capt.

We are extremely sorry that the error occurred and are very happy to state that Mrs. Gorski is living in New York City and working as a textile designer for a studio. The error developed when another soldier named Gorski was confused with her husband, Staff Sgt. Henry P. Gorski, BFA "41, who is serving in the Philippines with an Engineers group, working on camouart work, and not Switzerland as we reported flage, maps and other interned in previously.

GEORGED. CROFTS, COMPTROLLER AND TREASURER On Niagara Square, in the heart of busy, downtown Buffalo, stands a sturdy, weathered,red brick building,long known as Townsend Hall, one of the oldest of the fifteen buildings which go to make up the physical plant of the University. On the ground floor of that building is to be found the hub of the University's business life, the Treasurer's Office. There the Treasurer of the University, George D. Crofts, and his staff conduct the business enterprise of the University. Not many alumni and few students,indeed,realize that the University of Buffalo, which next year will celebrate its 100th Anniversary, is a corporation of considerable size. It has total assets of about $14,400,000 and currently operates on an annual budget of over $1,000,000. Evolution of the Treasurer's Office Down to November 1920 the University had no central business office. It consisted then only of the Schoolsof Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, and Law and which had the College of Arts and Sciences granted its first three degrees in June administration of 1920. The business these separate schools,as well as their educational programs, was left by the Council of the University largely to the schools themselves and in those matters the schools were almost wholly independ- one another. One of the two conditions on which Mr. Walter P. Cookeand his associates undertook to launch the first $5,000,000 campaign for the University in October 1920 was that the business administration of the separate schools should be centralized in a single office into which all receipts should come and from which all disbursements should be made. Following the close of that first $5,000,-000 campaign, Mr. Crofts, as Vice-Chairman of the Committeeon GeneralAdministration, was assigned the task of organizing and centralizing the business structure of the University. In November 1920 the central officewas opened and in the following months he prepared the University's first GeneralBudget to cover its operations for the academic year beginning July 1, 1921 and ending June 30, 1922. On July 11, 1921 Mr. Crofts was elected Treasurer of the University. The ordinances of the University provide that the Treasurer, subject to the ent of The above is the second in a series of articles written by guest authors about the University's officersand offices. The alumni office staff is grateful to these guest editors for their well-informed articles. Responsibilities Are Many and Varied The Treasurer and his staff are responsible for the collection of income, the investment of permanent funds, the purchase of supplies, and the operation and maintenance of the physical plant of the University. Normally about 76.8% of the total income of the University is derived from tuition and other fees collected from 5,285 students normally registered in all the divisions of the University. The collection of these fees is a chief function of the Bursars in the schools to which they are assigned. These Bursars are the Treasurer's deputies in their respective schools. The physical plant of the University, its lands, buildings and equipment, are valued at $7,104,575.50. The Treasurer's Office operates this plant. It has charge of the day to day maintenance of all the buildings and grounds owned by the University and, in addition, makes all alterations and repairs to the properties. Conrad J. Leupold, a deputy of the .Treasurer, is the competent superintendent of the campus buildings and grounds and, as such, is in immediate charge of the upkeep and maintenance of those properties. Insurance for the physical plant, alone, is an important item in the protection of the University's properties. The buildings and their contents are protected by $4,983,600.00 of fire insurance. The University also carries public liability insurance, boiler insurance and Workmen's Compensation. The University's other source of income is from its permanent endowment funds. Research for the investment of these permanent funds is an unending task, especially in normal times when opportunities for the investment of funds are more favorable than in the present markets. Ultimate authority for the investment of permanent funds is vested in the Committee on Finance of which the Treasurer is a member. AH purchases and sales of securities are executed by the Treasurer's Office. It follows the markets from day to day and furnishesto the Finance Committee detailed Quarterly Reports on all the (Continued on Page 2) �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO The Treasurer's Office (Continued from Page 1) by owned securities the University. The University's permanent funds, which yield income for the operation of the University, date back only to the first $5,000,000 campaign of 1920. In the past 25 years this permanent account has passed through the market collapse of 1929 and the dreary depression years of the early 30's. However,the market value of these funds, accumulated over the 25 year period, in yearsof prosperity and in yearsof depression, is today 104.7%of their book value. The purchase of equipmentand supplies for every division of the University is a never-ending activity of the Treasurer's Office. Supplies used for instruction are requisitioned by department heads on the Bursars of their respective divisions. All orders are placed by the Treasurer's Office. These orders range in variety from 4400 tons of coal for the Heating Plant on the campus to grams of drugs and vials of vaccines for the School of Pharmacy. An order for the Department of Biology, for instance, in the College of Arts and Sciencesmight contain such items as black widow spiders, live turtles and leeches. An order for the School of Medicine, on the other hand, would contain such items as oxalated beef blood, fresh hogs' stomachs,beef preeyes,and dynamite glycerine for the servation of cadavers. For the Dental School Infirmary, in which all Dental students receive their practical training, a supply order would include such items as quantities of artificial teeth, gold, and platinum for the building of partial dentures, crowns, bridges and inlays. Perhaps no school of the University requires a greater variety of supplies than does the Schoolof Pharmacy. In number they run into the hundreds and include every known pharmaceutical and medicinal drug used in the treatment of the ills of mankind, from the oldest aloes to the newest sulpha drugs and penicillin. These products are gathered from the four corners of the earth. They include narcotics or pain killers such as codeine,morphine and cannabis; explosives, such as nitroglycerine; stimulants, such as digitalis and strophanthus; serums for measles and meningitis; vaccines for rabies,smallpox and typhoid; sulpha drugs; vitamins; perfume oils from China, India, Australia. France and Holland for the manufacture of cosmetics,and the most dangerous living bacteriological microscopic cultures known to man. The war created additional duties for the Treasurer's Office, for it brought to the University government contracts covering the various Army and Navy training programs. The largest of these programs was the Army Air Forces Program which continued over a period of about 15 months and involved the expenditure of $634,851."7fi, covering instruction, housing. and messing for 500 Air Corps trainees. Subsistence alone involved the expenditure Raw foods purchased by the Treasurer's Office cost $133,576.00 and the labor item for messing ran to $51,--735.00. The records of the Treasurer's Office disclose many interesting items of the messing operation—fresh meats, $50,milk and cream, $19,926.00; fresh --040.00; fruit, 515,544.00;butter and eggs, $11,--623.00; staples, $19,848.00; and ice cream, $2,732.00. All of these items were contracted for by the Treasurer's Office on the requisition of Mrs. Louise Kener, a member of the Treasurer's staff, who was Director of the Army Air Forces Mess Hall. All of the University disbursements are made by check. In a single year the number of checks drawn by the Treasurer's Office for salaries and merchandise bills of every character runs to about 17,000. About one-half of all of the checks are for salaries and from each of these the Federal Withholding Tax has to be deducted. Among the endowment assets of the University there have been set up approximately 125 funds for the creation of professorships and scholarships, which the Treasurer's Office administers in accordance with the terms of specific deeds of gift or trust agreements. In this connection the Treasurer is often called upon, by members of the bar, frequently his former pupils in the Law school, for advice in the preparation of wills in which a prospective benefactor desires to include a bequest to the University. of $201,729.45. Those Who Serve The Assistant Treasurer of the University is Emily H. Webster who graduated from the College of Arts and Sciencesin 1923 and who entered the business administration of the University in September of that year. In 1927 she became Assistant to the Treasurer and in 1930 was elected Assistant Treasurer. There is no phase of the University's business administration in which she is not engaged or no part of the Treasurer's manifold duties which she does not share. The man who is responsible for the operation of this business enterprise is George D. Crofts, Comptrollerand Treasurer of the University. He is a man of quiet demeanor,of keen perception and deliberate action. As busy as his days are, he is never too busy to confront each new problem brought to his desk and to bring his practical judgment to bear on each decision. One might suppose that the Treasurer would have little time to indulge a hobby. On the contrary, he has one all-absorbing hobby to which he has devoted himself with singleness of purpose for the past twenty years. It is the beautification of the University campus. With limited University funds at his disposal he created, with the help of a supervisor and ordinary day labor, 100 acres of lawn, thus transforming the campus from rough country farm land to a place of great beautv in the city. Most of the ornamental trees which have been placed on the campus in the last 20 years are his DIVISIONAL NEWS ARTS On April 11th, the officersof the Arts Alumni Association met and decided to hold an annual meeting this year in the form of a picnic on Saturday, June 16, at the La Salle Yacht Club. It will be a basket lunch affair and open to all Arts alumni and their families. More complete details and directions for reaching the grounds will be given in the May Bulletin. BUSINESSADMINISTRATION The Business Administration Alumni Association will again have an annual banquet meeting to be held Monday, June 4. The 1943 and 1944 annual meetings of this group together with its interim activities were suspended largely because of war conditions. Although these conditions still prevail, it is felt that every effort should be made to resume activities because of the imminent return of many of the members from the armed forces. Since such activities provide excellent opportunities for re-establishing or making new acquaintances and for exchanging information, they should prove valuable in assisting our returning alumni to take up their places in civilian life. Because the Business Ad Alumni group has a relatively large number of young members and because the great preponderance are males, it has a very high percentage of its total membership in the armed services. Therefore,activities designed to assist our discharged servicemen assume unusual importance not only to those returning to civilian life but also to the eventual success of the association. The place and further details of the meeting will be announced later by mail. PHARMACISTSHOLD MEETINGS The following officerswere installed at .i meeting of the Western New York Branch of the American Pharmaceutical Association: Dr. Arthur P. Wyss, professorof pharmacy at the University, president; James S. Hill '26, first vice- president; Mearl S. Pritchard, '21, second vice-president; and Francis P. Taylor, '34, treasurer. When the Buffalo Veterans' Druggists' Association held its 20th annual banquet last month, one of the guest speakers was Dr. A. B. Lemon,'13, Dean of the School of Pharmacy. His topic was "Present Conditions and Problems of Pharmacy." personal gift. The eight beautiful elm trees which adorn the front of Norton Hall were the gift to the University of his son, Lt. George D. Crofts, Jr., on the occasion of one of his father's recent birthdays. The University is the Treasurer's constant care. Six days a week his door is always open to students,teachers, salesmen and workmen. The telephone leading to his desk is never still and through the night the watchmen and janitors in the University buildings know that the telephone number to call in case of emergency is GR. 2739. �3 ALUMNI BULLETIN SERVICE NEWS CASUALTIES After 28 months in Africa, Master Sgt.

Mr. Capen makes his. In consultation each listens, gravely, to the other. He is often right; she,oftener. And if the weather is" passable by their standards, not by yours or mine a figure in gray flannels,an old jacket, a white hat, crosses the lawn, drops down the path, and hoists —— He owned,for a time, a flat bottomed speed boat that planed the surfaceof Orcutt's Harbor, driven by a snarling motor. His friends in South Brooksville,Maine, watched the experiment with tolerant amusement: "A man has a right to notions now and then." The thing was officially christened "The Sin", but that implied apology was no protection; popularly it became "Capen's Folly". A dory powered by an out-board motor is another matter: it isn't properly a bo-at (spoken in two syllables). It's transportation. A bo-at has sails. The other natives knew that he wouldn't keep a "stink boat" for long. And even during this time of "Sin", a true boat rode through the summer months tugging at its mooring in the harbor below the house. In the water is a float connected with the rocky shore,and the path, by a chicken walk. The path climbs steeply up the hill to a flat expanse of lawn beside the brown-shingled house. On the lawn,or on the large porch which surrounds two sides of the house,Mrs. Capen reads Trollope, puts the finishing touches to the harder kind of double acrostic,or, with Mr. Capen, entertains an occasional guest perhaps their daughter or a college classmate. Or she consults Millie. Millie doesn't cook yearround for the Capens, to be sure. Sometimesshe takes care of others, nice people always, but not natives. — Millie knows weather as well as she knows appetites. Where there are saildriven keels, weather's important. Each morning Millie makes her diagnosis and sail. He fits the cockpit of a boat; the tiller seeks his under arm. In a stiff breeze matches burn for him and do their job on pipe or cigaret. Conversation holds steady, while, at the same time, ripples are speaking to him of the veering winds. He knows every rock, nearly all of them with an affection born more of familiarity than of respect. On other than racing days he sails down to the Reach and gets home in time for a short swim before lunch. In the afternoon there may be correspondence, or a report to write. Or work to be done to spruce up the place: grass cut. young evergreens which threaten the view pruned. Wood must be fetched,and lamps must be prepared against the cool evenings when there will be talk or reading of John Buchan or Dumas. And once or twice a summer there is a spell of the French Classical drama. Trimming a lamp-wick, or a these tree, or speakingrolling Alexandrines, are arts to be practiced with considerable care. Day by day the growth of the sun-flowers at the right of the porch is watched,or the coming of color to the sumach as fall approaches. Always there is a new light or a different shadow playing across cliffs or the greenhills, and over the water of the Harbor. All of these things were to be savored in the short summers before soldiers marched the Campus of the University of Buffalo, before AAFandASTRP, before "acceleration". Now Mr. Capen remains beyond hail of boats,within hail of the campus. But, formerly, in peace time days there could have been,perhaps, another sail in the late afternoon. And as he tied the painter at the village dock, the garage man, or the store-keeper, might be saying to a tourist customer, "Him? Been 'round here since he was fifteen. Got a school West someplace, winters. Good man in a boat. Name's SamCapen." _ The above is the first in a series of articles to be written by guest editors about the administraand adminisirative offices of the university. The alumni office staff wishes to acknowledge gratefully the fine spirit of cooperation demonstrated by the guest editors. We hope you will enjoy these "behind-the-scenes" views. tors �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 2 ALUMNI DEEDS OF COURAGE RECEIVE RECOGNITION ...

Honorary Degrees Won Honorary degrees were conferred upon three University of Buffalo graduates last month, each receiving the award from a different institution. The alumni thus honored are Joseph M. Hill, MD '28, BS (Med) '28, James McCormick Mitchell, LLB '97, and John Lord O'Brian, LLB "98. In recognition of important contributions to science and humanity, the University of Guadalajara, Mexico,conferredon Dr. Hill the honorary degree of "Doctor Honoris Causa."It is believed that this is-the second time the university has conferredthis degree in the modern era. The development of the adtevac (vacuum drying) process of large-scale drying of blood plasma is one of Dr. Hill's most notable achievements. Under his new process, liquid plasma is frozen and crystallized, the crystals then being ground to powder and packed in small airtight containers ready for instant use. They can be dissolved in a quantity of distilled water amounting to one-fourthof the original volume of blood and can be administered by a hypo-syringe without the usual complicated transfusionapparatus. The crystals and sufficientdistilled water can be packed in containers compact enough to be carried in a physician's coat pocket and can be transported long distances at any temperatures without refrigeration and without deterioration of the plasma. Dr. Hill, who has been an honorary professor of the University of Guadalajara since last March, is director of laboratories at Baylor University Hospital, Dallas,Texas, and director of the William Buchanan Blood, Plasma and SerumCenter at that hospital. After his internship, he taught pathology at Buffalo'sMedical school and was later associated with the University of Oklahomaand Baylor College of Medicine. Since1943,he has been professor of clinical pathology at Southwestern Medical College. * * * Chairman of the Council of the University of Buffalo, James McCormick Mitchell received an honorary degree of doctor of laws from Princeton University at its winter commencement. Having received his bachelor's degree from Princeton in 1894 and his master's in 1897, Mr. Mitchell was cited as "an outstanding example of the type we strive to train and stimulate in Princeton for the public service." A member of the law firm of Kenefick, Cooke,Mitchell, Bass and Letchworth,he served as president of the New York State Bar Association in 1943.

Serving in this capacity is Earl J. McGrath,BA "28, MA '30, Dean of Administration recently returned to the university after two yearsin the Navy. SamuelS. Mitchell of the Princeton Class of 1861,.was awarded an honorary degree 70 yearsago. * * * At its third winter commencement, Brown University awarded an honorary degree of doctor of laws to John Lord O'Brian who was, until his recent resignation, general counsel of the War Production Board. The citation accompanying the conferring of the degree read as follows: "Intellectual talents of the highest order, independence of mind in a superlative degree, fairnessso transparent as to win the these qualirespect of opposing partisans ties led the administrations of William Howard Taft, Woodrow Wilson, Herbert Hoover,and Franklin Delano Roosevelt successively to summon you to public office both in peace and war.

Chief among the new offerings is "Problems of a Lasting Peace," a course conducted by Dr. Frederick A. Hodge, WBEN news commentator. part with Dr. Designed to Various Hodge. experts will take aid students entering Millard Fillmore College in the second semester are: "Double-time Principles of Accounting," which permits a student to complete the basic first-year course in one semester; first-year English, beginning Psychology and EffectiveSpeaking. This year for the first time, the basic-chemistry course which is a requirement in all premedical and pre-dental programs as well as science programs in the College of Arts and Sciences,has a beginning section starting with the second semester. The second half of the course will be offered during the summer session,enabling those who wish to accelerate their training to complete the basic-chemistry course before next September. FACULTY NOTES Dr. Oscar A. Silverman,professor of English, is delivering a series of three lectures sponsored by the Mothers' Council of the Elmwood-Franklin School. The second,given on February 19th, was on the topic, "Thucydides and Tolstoy." The third lecture, on "Huxley, Hemingway and Others," will be given on April 16. An article by Dr. Arthur P. Wyss, associate professor of pharmacy, appears in the January issue of the Journal of the American Pharmaceutical Association. VETERANS AS STUDENTS A survey of the 40 full-time and 35 part-time students at the university who are discharged veterans of this war disclosed that these students are very much interested in accelerated programs by which the ordinary four-year courses can be completed in less than three. One reason, of course, is that they are older than the regular students and usually want to get through as quickly as possible. In the university's group, the median age is 22, about 3 yearsbeyond the averageof what would be expected of entering students, a natural condition since they approximately half are enrolled in the School of Business Administration. The averageability level of the veterans is close to that of other entering students. Their memory of high school content is considerably weaker than that of other students,a natural condition since they have been out of school for some time. In other words, they have the ability to succeed in college, but need extra time to refreshtheir minds on basic material previously learned. Sixty percent of the veterans have had no previous college training except service training which mayor maynot yield them college credit. DENTAL FACULTY CHANGES ANNOUNCED Announcement was recently made of the retirement of Edson J. Farmer,DDS '12, as professor and head of the department of prosthetic dentistry. A member of the faculty since his graduation, Dr. Farmer has been appointed professor of prosthetic dentistry, emeritus. He will devote his attention to private practice. S.

The 23rd College Training Detachment (Air Crew), in the months that it was at full strength, numbered 500. The 3215th ServiceCommand ServiceUnit of the Army Specialized Training Program stationed in the medical and dental schools had a contract enrollment of 340 members. A Navy V-12 Unit stationed in the medical and dental schools continued to enroll approximately 50 apprentice seamen. Actually in the University of Buffalo during the year under review the civilian enrollment of the medical school has constituted 17.6% of the total and in the dental school 13.6% of the total. Withdrawal of the Army Air Forces' Unit In consequence of the Army Air Forces' decision to discontinue half of the collegiate training centers at once those most remote from the flight training fieldsfirst the enrollment in the 23rd College Training Detachment declined month by month from January to May 1944, when the last contingent of cadets was transferredand the unit closed. The Army Specialized Training Program Purposes and Policies The purpose of the Army Specialized Training Program was to provide for the Army a continuing supply of specialists in every field which involved mastery of the more advanced intellectual materials and techniques. The fields in question have always been the exclusive province of the colleges and universities. The military authorities came late to the recognition of the indispensability of the colleges and universities for the maintenance of an effectivemodern army. As the scale of the mobilization increased,however, it became plain that the requisite number of specialists could not be secured by means either of the draft or of voluntary enlistment; or even by any practicable plan of student deferment.The ASTP. as it is commonly called,was the War Department's solution of the problem that it faced. The War Department's plari contemplated a continuous total enrollment, after the maximum had been reached,of somewhere in the neighborhood of 150.000 men. But on February 18, 1944 representatives of the colleges and universities were informed that for reasons of imperative military necessity the War Department intended ■ — — — to call to active duty forthwith approximately 110,000 members of the ASTPunits. The only training units to be continued thenceforthat full strength were to be those in medicine,dentistry and advanced engineering. Changing Policy with Respect to Deferment The curtailment of the ASTP was soon followed by action of other governmental agencies still further restricting the production of specialists. No service units had been organized for the production of physicists, chemists, geologists and a number of other types of scientific experts. The defermentof students in these fields remained the official means of maintaining a steady flow of such specialists into the armed forces and the war industries. But not for long. On July Ist, 1943 the SelectiveService System issued a directive reducing the number of scientificoccupations for which defermentwould be granted and shortening the time that anystudent would be allowed to remain in training on a deferredstatus. In February 1944 the SelectiveServiceSystem established an overall quota for the nation of 10,000 students of engineering, physics, geology, geophysics and chemistry who would be allowed deferment. On April 7th, 1944 it rescinded the whole arrangement. All student deferments,except in professional schools devoted to the medical sciences and theology, were elimin- ated. Immediate Results of the New Policies Certain consequences of the combined action of the War Department and the Selective ServiceSystem are worth recording. The approximately 110,000 ASTP enrollees who were called to active duty had received an implicit promise from the government of the United Statesthat, if they pursued their respective courses successfully, they would either receive commissions or would be assigned as non-commissioned officersto technical services. AH had been selected after exhaustive tests of their mental and physical qualifications, and in most instances on the basis of excellent previous military records. The transfer order returned them in most cases to duty as privates in non-technical services and cancelled the military advancement they had already won, together with their future prospects. nearly all of them have taken Nevertheless, their grievous disappointment in their stride and have gone about the performance of their new and less responsible duties in the finestspirit. The Committee on Relationships of Higher Education to the Federal Government appointed by the American Council on Education urged upon the War Department the immediate inauguration of a collegiate training programfor qualified young men who have not yet reached the draft age. It pointed out that only in this way could the Army secure for its later requirements a pool of men who have had at least the rudiments of scientific and technical training. In response to these representations the War Department undertook a considerable expansion of the Army Specialized Training Reserve Program. The government paysthe cost of tuition, food, housing and medical care of the members of the ASTRP units. A unit of 300 ASTRP students has been assigned to the University of Buffalo. National Consequences of the Government'j Action The policies summarized above seem to have produced, or to be on the point of producing, the following results. The supply of pre-medical and pre-dental students will be reduced to a mere trickle. The supply of engineering students, and of physicists, chemists, geologists, biologists and many other scientificspecialists will be all but cut off. Only those students ineligible for military service or those enlisted in the Navy can continue to prepare for these specialties. Nothing that has been published convinces university officersof the wisdom,or even of the necessity, of these decisions. Sincethe educational agencies of the government, which may be presumed to be in possession of all the facts, are estopped from commenting upon the actions of other government departments, the only discussion of these actions must come from the independent universities. These institutions have the right and the duty to record their convictions. A social policy of far-reaching implications is involved; a social policy which, unless the enemyis at the gates, should lie outside of the sphere of the military departments of the government. The administration of the SelectiveServiceAct was located outside the military departments of the government in order that at all times the relative urgencyof military and civilian needs might be weighed by an im- — — partial authority. Through the actions outlined above the nation is committed to a desperate gamble. We have decided to throw awayour seed corn; and most of it has already been scattered abroad. We have made it absolutely certain that the United Stateswill experience a shortage of trained leadership for the period immediately following the war. If the war should continue for as long as two years more, we have made it absolutely certain that we shall experience a shortage of scientificand technical service in the military branches themselves. In the postwar period, this country will have to start again at the beginning to rear up a new �3 ALUMNI BULLETIN generation of scientists and technologists. apparent if remember that it takes four years at least beyond the age of eighteen to prepare men to begin the engineering profession; six to eight yearsto prepare dentists,physicists,chemists and geologists; eight to ten yearsto prepare physicians. Perhaps this particular policy may be altered beforethe disaster becomes irreparable. As long as there is the slightest prospect of such alteration,responsible university officersare under a solemn obligation to their country to advocate it. Just what this means will be we Experience of the University of Buffalo with Training Units Whatever objections to the latest developthe government's general training policy the University of Buffalo maywish to register, it can have nothing but praise for the operation of the training programs in which it has participated. The actual administration of the academic parts of the programshas been left to the initiative and good judgment of the educational officials who conduct them. The local commanding officersand their staffs, while maintaining effective control of the military phases of the training of the student soldiers,have scrupulously upheld the faculty's authority in the sphere assigned to it. Visiting inspectors from headquarters have likewise been sympathetic and helpful. Between both of these groups and the instructional officersof the university the most friendly and cooperative relations have prevailed. With the various contracting and auditing officialsof the military departments the university's relations have likewise been cordial and, we hope, mutually satisfactory. If my colleagues and I may judge the Army and Navy training programsas a whole by our own experience, we are ready to testify that in broad concept and execution they have surpassed anything which those who at the beginning of the war were the most ardent advocates of collegiateparticipation in the preparation of specialists for the armed forces dared to hope. To judge by the large volume of testimony that has come from the student soldiers themselves, the programs have proved their value in the subsequent military careers of these men. High officialsof both the Army and the Navy have also publicly commended the results. ments of NON-MILITARY TRAINING SUBSIDIZED BY THE GOVERNMENT The Engineering, Scienceand ManageWar Training programis subsidized by the Federal Governmentand administered by the U.

But it was evident that even this very gratifying surplus could be quickly extinguished if one or more of several possible occurrences came to pass. It is possible that at any time within the next year or two allowances made to the university under its militiry contracts may be sharply reduced,and that refunds may be called for. In the second place, the university has no way of knowing how many members of the faculty on leave for government service may return within the next academic year. Thirdly, for reasons already cited, the enrollment prospects for the next academic year are again uncertain. The budget adopted by the council at the end of June, 1944 was once more a balanced budget. The estimating officers have believed that their estimates are conthey must servative and safe. Nevertheless, admit the continued presence of a speculative element in their calculations. ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES Following the death of Dean Daniel H. Squire in 1937 the council authorized the creation of the post of Dean of the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry and appointed Dean Edward W. Koch to that position. At the same time it created the position of Associate Dean of the Schoolof Dentistry and designated Dr. Russell W. Groh The departure of ProfessorHelen I. Driver for service abroad with the American Red Cross deprived the Department of Hygiene and Physical Education for Women of its administrative head. Dean Lillias M. Macdonald,Assistant Professorof Hygiene, was designated as acting head of the department. The medical and dental schools have had difficulty for several yearsin providing adequate library facilities for their respective faculties and student bodies. The inconveniences proved to be so great that the director of libraries and the deans of the two schools became convinced of the necessity of a thorough-going reform. A solution was found which can at best be regarded as only a makeshift.A permanently satisfactory settlement must wait upon the erection of a new medical building. CONCLUSION The difficultiesof the third war yearhave revealed both the adaptability and the essential strength of the university. Its satisfactory financialcondition is in part attributable to the government payments for the extensive training operations I have described ; but only in part. The council will not overlook,I am sure, the faculty's great voluntary contribution. The largest item in the government contracts has been the item for instruction. As I noted a year ago, the faculty agreed by unanimous vote to assume the whole burden of teaching military personnel without cost to the university, except during the two summer months. Judged by normal academic standards almost every instructor has as the incumbent. This administrative arrangement was designed to promote more been seriously overloaded.

Appeals for contributions to the recently established Alumni Loyalty Fund have met with gratifying results. Although solicitation has been carried on almost entirely through the mails,both the number of subscribers and the total amount subscribed have increased substantially. Many of the subscriptions have been made by service men stationed in all parts of the world. Special unsolicited contributions have also continued to come in, generally accompanied by equally welcome expressions of interest and good will. The council is justified in feeling satisfied with its stewardship. The institution of which it is the custodian has thus far withstood the strains of war with the minimum of impairment. Every one of its twelve divisions is still in full operation. In two important fieldsof professional education it has even expanded its offerings. Its direct contribution to the war effort of the nation has been notable. The years immediately ahead will undoubtedly be trying ones for all universities. But the Council of the University of Buffalo has sound reasons for facing them with confidence. Respectfully submitted, before their attachment SAMUEL P. CAPEN.

Gentlemen: The annual report of the comptroller for the fiscal year which ended June 30, 1944 is presented herewith. The balance sheet,Exhibit "A," shows total assets of $14,405,495.43, distributed follows: endowment assets $6,763,-319-74;plant assets $7,105,123-37; and operating assets $537,052.32. The total value of land, buildings and equipment at the close of the fiscal year on June 30, 1944 was $7,104,575.50. The physical plant of the university is in good condition. The acceleration of the university's educational curricula,as well as its several war training programs,have resulted in intensive use of its buildings and equipment. The university has been able, nevertheless,to keep its buildings in good condition. Certainitems of upkeep cannot be cared for until after the war. They have been provided for in a DeferredMaintenance Account which has been set up for the purpose. The war has continued to affectadversely the normal operations of the university in several important ways. In the first place, because of the continued operation of the SelectiveService Act, the over-all civilian enrollment declined quite sharply during the year 1943-1944 with the result that fees received from students were $101,570.26 less than in the preceding year. The decreases occurred chiefly in the College of Arts and Sciencesand in the Schoolsof Business Administration,Law and Pharmacy. Even Millard Fillmore College suffereda decline in enrollment, although it closed the year with a substantial surplus. There was a slight decline in the income of the Summer Session. The Schoolof Medicine and the School of Dentistry were operating under Army and Navy Training contracts. Because of these contracts every available place in both schools was filled for the twelve months of the year covered by this report. These schools,therefore,enjoyed an increase in income over the income of the preceding year. Fees received from students in all divisions of the university during the year ended June 30, 1944 totalled $787,891.61, or 76.8% of the total income of the university, as against $889,461.87 or 80.9% in the preceding year. Income from endowment likewise suffered a slight decline. This was due primarily to the lower rate of return received on United StatesGovernmentBonds. Salariesof Instruction for the year ended June 30, 1944 showed a decrease of $86,-549-41 from the salaries of the preceding as Two factors contributed to this decrease. First, the Army Air Forces Program continued throughout the yearand to the extent that the members of the faculty were engaged in teaching in that program the university budget was, to that extent, relieved of this instructional cost. The second factor was the absence of additional members of the teaching staff who had joined the armed forcesor who had become engaged in other governmental services. The Army Air Forces contract not only relieved the university of a portion of its instructional cost, it also provided for the payment to the university of the Army's proportionate share of the cost of operating and maintaining the university buildings used in the Army Air Forces Program and further provided for payment to the university for the use of its buildings. The university also received an administrative allowance for the services of members of its personnel who were engaged in the administration of the program. United States,state and municipal government bonds,purchased by the university, yielded an averageincome of 2.06% on the actual investment; foreign government bonds,4.89%; railroad bonds, 4.93%; public utility bonds, 4.89%; industrial bonds, 3.23%; miscellaneous bonds, all year. gifts, 2.05%; stocks, 4.12%; mortgages and mortgage certificates,1.06%. The average yield on all stocks and bonds purchased and owned by the university, and excluding gifts, was 3-96% for the year. The lower rate of return on the invested funds of the university was due to the continued purchase of United StatesGovernment Bonds which yield a low rate of return. On June 30, 1944 the stocks and bonds in the university portfolio which had been purchased by the university, and excluding gifts, were classifiedas follows on the basis of market worth: United States,state, municipal and foreign government bonds, 26.08%; railroad bonds, 6.23%; public utility bonds, 4.31%; industrial bonds, 1.03%; public utility preferred stocks, 13.09%; industrial preferred stocks,5%; investment trust preferred stocks, 1.647c; bank preferred stocks,.83%; railroad common stocks, .81%; public utility common stocks,3.07%; industrial common stocks, 20.99%; bank capital stocks,5.54%; insurance common stocks,7.62%; investment trust common stocks,3.76%. The list continues to be of the highest quality and well diversified. It is gratifying to note that on of the June 30, 1944 the market valueowned by stocks and bonds purchased and the university continued to be in excess of their book value. For some time the administrative officers of the university have recognized the need of a four year engineering programin the Buffalo area. If the university were to undertake a four yearprogramin Mechanical Engineering, it would be necessary to build and equip an adequate engineering laboratory. It was estimated that this could be done for approximately $300,000 or 5350,000.Accordingly, in December 1943 the councils Committeeon University Development was authorized to raise funds for this purpose. That effort met with popular support and at the close of the fiscal year on June 30th a substantial part of the fund had been raised. Also during the year under review a group of Buffalo retail merchants placed at the disposal of the university a fund of 516,900for the development of a Department of Retailing in the School of Business Administration. This fund will make it possible for the university to add this new field of training to the services which it is already rendering to the community. One of the most gratifying sources of income continues to be the Alumni Loyalty Fund which at June 30, 1944 had contributed $9,644.45 to the general operating funds of the university. More than 800 alumni are now contributors to this fund. Other gifts and bequests received during the year covered by this report included: addition to the George P. and Sara N. McArthur Fund,$10,444.95; Estate of Edwin M. Husted, for the establishment of the Husted Scholarship Fund, $9,325-32; Estate of Alfred H. Schoellkopf, $5,000; Edward Michael, $2,000; Daniel W. Streeter,$2,000; Estate of Evelyn Rumsey Cary, addition to Dr. CharlesCary Memorial Fund, $1,841.42; and Estate of Elliott C. McDougal, $1,000. The various government-financed training programswhich have utilized the services and facilities of the university for the past year have been an important factor in the university's operations. It is more than likely that these programswill be curtailed. The Army Air Forces contract which provided for the training of 500 air forces trainees has already been terminated. Fortunately, however,the university has been selected to provide instruction, housing and messing for 300 seventeen year old Army Specialized Training Reservists. As of September 23, 1944 the Army discontinued its training unit in the School of Dentistry. The unit in the School of Medicine remains, although considerably curtailed in numbers. The Navy, however, continues to use the facilitiesof the School of Dentistry and the Schoolof Medicine although its program,likewise, has been curtailed. The government will continue to use the facilities of the university as a training {Continued on Page 7) �6 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO University of Buffalo Exhibit "A" ASSETS Endowment Fund Assets: Bonds— Public Utility Bonds Government Bonds Railroad Bonds Industrial Bonds Miscellaneous _ — 72,123-75 LIABILITIES AND FUNDS Endowment Funds: $1,952,862.94 General Purpose Funds 4,802,443.76 Special Purpose Funds (Schedule A-l) $6,755,306.70 8,013.04 $ 6,763,319-74 Plant Funds: Land, Buildings, and Equipment Fund Mortgage Payable $2,083,779-89 _ Cafeteria) from Operating _ Operating Fund Assets: Cash on Hand and in Banks Accounts Receivable Deferred Diploma Expense . __ $7,104,575.50 547.87 — 7,105,123-37 $ 513,476.81 20,968.73 2,606.78 University of Buffalo Schedule A-l _ JUNE 30, 1944 For College of Arts and Sciences: $410,000.00 Seymour H.

The Public Health Service will not only continue, but will enlarge this programduring the new academic year. Under the provisions of the Veterans' Bill, enacted in June 1944,many veterans returning from the theaters of war will be allowed to obtain college training at government expense. The university anticipates that its broad programof courses will prove attractive to many veterans. A considerable number of such veterans have already enrolled in the university. In addition the Veterans' Administration has already selected the university as a testing and guidance center for returning veterans to ascertain what courses of training may be necessaryto restore them to employability. This programis likely to be greatly expanded as the veterans return in larger numbers. It will be apparent to the council and friends of the university that the various government-financed training programs in which the university has been engaged have served greatly to steady the university through the past yearand a half. If these programsare continued the university will be able to make its way through the remaining years of the war without too great financialhazard. It is of the utmost importance to remember,however,that until the war has ended and colleges and universities mayonce again resume their normal operations, with normal conditions of enrollment, the discontinuance of these programsmay well upset the delicate balance between university income and university expenditure.

Chancellor SamuelP. Capen is verypleased with the results obtained through the cooperation of the various Fund Committeesand Class Agents. "The remarkable increase in the contributions to the Alumni Loyalty Fund during the past yearhas been very gratifying to all the officersof the university and to all its friends. "Alumni funds raised by annual contribution have come to play a prominent part in the development of a number of the stronger universities and colleges. The effort of the Alumni of the University of Buffalo to establish such a fund is of very recent date and in the beginning received rather small response. But during the last two years, despite the difficultiesof making an effectivecanvass in wartime, both the number of subscribers and the amount subscribed have increased rapidly. The contributions of the year just closed were 50 per cent higher than those of the preceding year. "The Alumni can be assured that any contributions made to the Alumni Loyalty Fund will be put to effectiveuse. The university looks forward to a number of major developments in the period immediately following the war. Many of these will require more money than can be derived from tuition feesand the income from existing endowments.

And while military contracts have enabled the university to come through the past two yearswith some surplus, the prospects of a year or two immediatelyahead are once more uncertain. The proceeds from the Alumni Loyalty Fund maybe required to offset a dangerous deficit in this critical time." The 1944 Alumni Loyalty Fund increased so rapidly during the last month of 1944 that there were too many names of contributors to list in this issue. However, all 1944 contributors will be named in the Honor Roll which will be mailed to all alumni in the spring. Also in the 1944 Honor Roll will appear the names of the various Fund Committeemembers and the class agents who have helped so much in developing the Fund. Please note: All checks dated January Ist or thereafter have been counted in the new 1945 Fund. The 1945 Fund has a very good start, and the Class Agents can be proud of the many gifts sent, in before the Spring appeal.

Our graduates and friends from all over the country, and even the boys overseas, have been sending in their contributions, large and small, to help make the '44 Fund grow. In its second year the Loyalty Fund has gone 'way over the 1943 first year total of which we were very proud. Around the first of November this year's Fund figures were about equal to last year's of $5,824.95 when the first class agent letters went out from the Pharmacy agents. The Pharmacy graduates are responding wholeheartedly to their classmates' appeal and have helped to put the '44 total up to $6744.00as of December 14th. Congratulations, Pharmacy School! The class agent letters for Education, Nursing, Social Work, Dentistry, Arts, and Business Administration are in the mails now, and if these graduates do as well as, or better than the Pharmacy School, we will have a fund well on its way to being on a par with that of other big colleges. That's an excellent record for just a two-year old Fund. May we take this opportunity to thank the chairmen and their committees for each School, as well as the class agents chosen so far, who have all cooperated so splendidly in putting this new system across? If any agents want to know how well their classes are responding before the Honor Roll is printed, just call the Alumni Office,or drop a line to 237 Crosby Hall. This year the Honor Roll will give the list of class agents and will show how well each school did. Will your name be on the 1944 Honor Roll of contributors? Remember that when you give to the Loyalty Fund you are helping to preserve an educational unit for yourself and your children, and the teachers of all children. And also remember that Education is the one thing which will prevent future wars. Education for the many,many children of the poorer classes who so out-number the children of the more widely educated people. Let us all have a share in preserving this world which our boys are giving their lives to keep. Let's send our bit in to the Alumni Loyalty Fund today.

Many undergraduate veterans who plan earn degrees will undoubtedly want to they completed at the University before they went into service. Those who already have degrees but have had no opportunity to make use of their specialized training while in service may need to review briefly their last few yearsof college work. With these needs in mind, the Law, Dental and Medical Schoolshave already made plans to provide refresher courses for returning veterans. The Law School program, drawn up under the direction of Dr. Arthur Lenhoff, has been accepted by the faculty and is ready to go into operation next fall. While going on with their regular courses, undergraduate students may take a 6-to-8 weeks review of the last year of work they completed before going into service. Courses will also be available for lawyers who have already been admitted to the bar.

They are copies of famous English chimes which first pealed out in 1794 when they were installed in St. Mary's Church the Great in Cambridge, England. In 1859, the chimes were copied for the House of Parliament and since then have been popularlyknown as the Westminster Quarters. The original quarters were in the key of C, and the notes were E, D, C and G. The University of Buffalo set is one key lower, B-flat, and the notes are D, C, Bflat and F. The bells, together with the tower clock, were the gift of Mrs. Edward H. Butler, a member of the University council. Each of the four bells bears an inscription. The late Cuthbert W. Pound,judge of the Court of Appeals of the State of New York, wrote the following words for the largest bell: "All truth is one. In this light may science and religion labor here together for the steady evolution of mankind from darkness to light; from prejudice to tolerance ; from narrowness to broadmindedness."

SENIOR MEMORIAL FUND An increase in the percentage of pledges the Senior Memorial Fund for 1944 is announced by LaVerne H. Brucker, DDS '21, vice-president of the GeneralAlumni Board in charge of alumni funds. In spite of lowered attendance due to war emergencies, 322 received diplomas and degrees in 1944 as compared to 434 in 1943. Fifty-four per cent of those contacted in 1944, or 138 graduates, pledged a total of 5296 annually for five years. This is an increase of about 159 c over those who pledged in '43. Of the total, $83 was pledged by the dental graduates to be applied to a much-needed amplification system in the Dental College. The rest is unrestricted the type of gift especially appreciated by a private institution like our to — University. The Dentistry school leads this yearwith 88 c/c pledged. Due to so many being called into service immediately, or because of early graduations, the other classes could no<- be canvassed as completely. Any members of the '44 Classwho have not signed pledges and would like to contribute with their classmates may notify the Alumni Office. New members of the fund are: ARTS AND SCIENCES John A.

B. With veterans of this war now able to get a college education of from one to four years at government expense in accordance with the provisions of the new Veterans' Bill, the University of Buffalo has prepared to receive a large number of 17 Year-Olds Parade AIR RESERVES ARRIVE Suddenly and dramatically, the pall of emptiness which had settled over the campus after the exodus of the army air cadets last May was dispelled early in July when more than 300 17-year-old soldier-students,members of the Army Specialized Training Reserve program,arrived for the special training the University was selected to provide. Enthusiastic about their studies and campus life, the new students receive academic instruction from members of the University faculty for from three to nine months, depending on their age. In the order that they reach their eighteenth birthdays, they leave U. B. for advanced study. The unit is part of the 3215th Service CommandService Unit stationed at the Medical Schoolbut the training and type of men differ widely. One group is destined for the medical corps, the other for the air corps. The Dental Schoolunit was discontinued Sept. 23 in accordance with the War Department's policy of discharging its dental-training units throughout the country. Given the choice of entering the medical corps as enlisted men or of continuing in the Dental School as civilians, nearly all decided to complete their dental courses. (Continued on Page 2) M. E. DEGREE OFFERED A four-year programin mechanical engineering was inaugurated at the University this Fall and approximately half of the $300,000 needed for an engineering laboratory has already been raised- -two important advancements toward the University's goal of a Schoolof Engineering. The establishment of a full engineering program at the University has been voluntarily aided by manyindustrialists who be- lieve that the lack of such a programhas definitely been impeding the proper growth of Western New York's industrial system. The course also comes in answer to the demand of local youth for an opportunity to obtain an engineering degree while living at home. ProfessorPaul Eugene Mohn of the University of Illinois has been chosen to head the new department and will have the task of installing and developing the program. The laboratory is expected to be ready for use by the time the new students enter their second or third year. Meanwhile,a small laboratory, previously devoted to elementary engineering, is being used. "We realize that there are relatively few male civilian students (only 17-year-olds and those deferredfor physical and other reasons) available to undertake this pro(Continued on Page 3) returned servicemen this Fall. An illustrated brochure entitled "A College Education Under the G. I. Bill" has just been issued by the University offering a complete account of the college training available under the bill and of the facilities and courses provided by the University. Alumni are urged to help their friends who are returning veterans as well as their Alma Mater by calling their attention to this new program. "The University of Buffalo is happy to welcome home you men and women of Western New York who have served in America's armed forces," the p3mphlet points out. "If you want to continue your education where you left off or if you want to start afresh,the University will be ready to advise,assist and receive you." It "offers a broad program of courses, including many distinctive featuresand special services for veterans." Bill's Provisions Outlined "The GovernmentWill Help!" the brochure continues: "If you were under 26 years of age when you entered the armed forcesor if you were over 26 and your education was interrupted by the war—and if you served at least 90 days after Sept. 16, 1940—you are automatically entitled to a minimum of one year's education. Also, you must possess an honorable discharge from service and you must be acceptable for admission to college. "The government will pay tuition and other feesnot to exceed $500 for an ordinary school year. "In addition, it will pay a subsistence allowance of S5O a month to a veteran without dependents, with an additional $25 a month for one or more dependents. This allowance will cover completely fee requirements as well as tuition at the University of Buffalo and should be more than sufficient to take care of living expenses. "University credit is given for military experience and specialized training programs. "Don't procrastinate! The time to go to college is now." Veterans are advised to get further information and copies of the pamphlet at the Personnel Office in Edmund Hayes Hall. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO LOYALTY FUND CLASSAGENT SYSTEM LAUNCHED Fund Rises Steadily Over Last Year's Figure Where is the other 96%??? To date, in the 1944 Fund Appeal only 47r —or 419 of the 11,500 alumni—have given! Of last year's 312 contributors, 189 have forgotten the current appeal. This Fall the "Class Agent" system is going into effect. Each division of the Fund Committeeof the GeneralAlumni Board has selected new members;and each of these divisional committees is in the process of selecting agents for everyclass that has graduated from their school. As the agents are chosen and accept their responsibility, they will begin to contact the men and women of their class. We have not set a quota for our annual Loyalty Fund appeal but we are hoping to see it grow by leaps and bounds each year. We are not asking for pledges for futureyears—send what you can now and when next year comes, you can decide what to send then. The unstable position of most of the higher-educational institutions of the country indicates clearly the great need our own Alma Mater has for the support of ALL of us now! Sendyour gift today to the Alumni Office. Crosby Hall, University of Buffalo, Buffalo 14, N. Y. If you have already given this year, please do no; think that we are making another appeal if you receive literature about the Fund —we just want you to know what is beinc sent out.

MOLD CHECKS TB GERM ASSISTANT DEAN CHOSEN A greenmold which inhibits the growth of tuberculosis germswas discovered accidentally in an icebox at the School of Medicine by two of the University's faculty members,Dr. David K. Miller, professor of medicine,and Albert C. Rekate, MD '40, hospital assistant. The discovery was announced in the scientificjournal "Science." As a result of their find, the two physicians have received a $7,500 grant from the Office of ScientificResearch and Development to continue the research. Although penicillin has thus far been unsuccessfulin fighting tuberculosis,the mold belongs to the penicillin group of fungi. The mold was found growing on a culture of tuberculosis germs in a laboratory icebox. When it proved to grow more luxuriantly on the germs than on any other kind of food, the experimenters next tried its effect on tuberculosis germsgiven StocktonKimball, MD '29, was named assistant dean of the Schoolof Medicine by ChancellorSamuelP. Capen in July. A member of the faculty for seven years, Dr. Kimball spent two months in 1943 studying malaria and other tropical diseases at the Army Medical School,Walter Reed Hospital, Washington, and later studied the diseases at first hand in Costa Rica and Guatemalafor six weeks,a course sponsored by the Markle Foundation. In addition, ten alumni were appointed to positions on the faculty and 13 alumni faculty members were promoted. The new appointees include: Medicine—Joseph G. Krvstaf, '27, associate in otolaryngology; GrosvenorW. Bissell, '39, instructor in medicine. Nursing—lvan L. Bunnell,MA '42, MD '43, instructor in anatomy; Wanda R. Galantowicz, BA '31, instructor in clinical nursing; Frederick G. Stoesser, MD "29, instructor in surgical nursing; Louis A. Siegel, MD '23, assistant professor of obstetrics; Dr. Donald M. Kumro, AC '21, BS '24, instructor in chemistry. Arts and Sciences —Donald L. Woernley, BA '34, MA '40, assistant professor of to guinea pigs. Human tuberculosis germs,which cause 100 per cent tuberculosis and death in guinea pigs, were first inoculated with the mold and allowed to stand in tubes for one or two days. These mold-treated germs failed in manycases even to give the pigs tuberculosis. Examination of the tubes showed,however,that the mold did not kill the germs, even after several months, but merely inhibited growth. This is exactly like the action of penicillin and the sulfas, which inhibit growth but don't kill in test tubes. An even more interesting feat of the new mold is to destroy the potency of tuberculin within two hours. This indicates that the mold feedsdirectly on the poison which tuberculosis germsproduce, since/that poison is the basis of tuberculin. The mold has great possibilities but its significance is still unknown. Unfortunately neither test tubes nor guinea pigs ever have been of value in predicting what a tuberculosis remedy will do for human beings. green M. E.

TWO BEQUESTS ANNOUNCED The library of the late C SumnerJones. MD '88, dean of the Medical Schoolfrom 1918 to 1927, is to be divided between the University and the Children'sHospital according to the will of his son, Pascal Pratt Jones,who died in July. In addition, $2,500 was left to the University in funds bearing the dean's name for the purchase of additional books. As a token of "the great esteem" in which he held Thomas B. Lockwood,law '96, co-donor of Lockwood Memorial Library, John Wood, who for many years operated a restaurant in North Division Street, between Main and Washington, willed $5,000 to the University for maintenance of the library. "Surveys among the men thus far discharged by the services reveal an overwhelming majority are interested in engineering and related subjects, such as electronics. The University, in introducing its full four-year engineering programat this time, thereforehopes to be of special service to the returning veterans of the West- New York area." ChancellorCapen asserted that Professor Mohn, who has a 22-year career in teaching, industrial engineering, research and writing and is widely known for his contributions to the field, was chosen after the University had considered candidates from all sections of the country and had interviewed several of them.

The gifts have already gone beyond the $4,000 mark —with six months of the year remaining and gifts sti'l coming in steadily as a result of the second mailing. Living up to its instigators' highest hopes, the first year for the Fund was a record-making one. Chairman Morey C. Bartholomew,LLB '09, said in his report. It achieved success with 312 contributors sending in almost $6,000 and 351 class pledgors giving another $1,000. The start made on the Fund is of the greatest promise, Chancellor Samuel P. Capen, a guest speaker at the meeting, pointed out Predicting a decrease of 50 per cent in the number of students on campus he said that the resulting loss in student feesmay require the University to budget a deficit for the next year. He expressed the hope, however,that the loss of revenue might be somewhat offset by the attendance of veterans as they graduallyreturn to civilian life. Erection of a plaque at the end of the war, paying tribute to all graduates, former students and faculty members who served and listing in memorial form all those graduates who died while in service,was proposed in the report of Griffith G. Pritchard, DDS 18, chairman of the Committee on Activities, and approved by the board. Dorothea C. Duttweiler, BA '37, reporting for the Committeeon Associations and Clubs, listed the accomplishments of the which have had "an historical associations, year" with some of them coming "to the fore with renewed vitality." Plans have been partially carried out for the development of a class representative system of organization by divisions. This system of class agents will provide a large group of informed, working alumni as a medium through which to promote, foster and improve the public relations of the University, the chairman of the Committeeon Public Relations,Emily H. Webster,BA '23, pointed out. The Committeeon Bequests gave an "indefinite" report because the results of its efforts are difficult to determine. Chairman George G. Davidson,Jr., LLB '97, reported that three mailings have been sent Medical and Dental Schools,mostly for books and equipment. Leon J. Gauchat, DDS 19, retiring president, extended a welcome to the board's special guests, Chancellor Capen, James McC. Mitchell, LLB "97, and Arthur I. Goldberg, BA '31. The divisional representatives were then introduced. They are: Alumnae,Mrs. Adele Boehmke Morris, BA '36, Soc '40; Arts, Dr. Ra'ph B. Elliott, BA '29; Business, Howard J.

Arts Alumni Convene On June 1, the officersand executive committee of the Arts Alumni Association met at the home of President Ralph B. Elliott, '29, to discuss plans for the coming year. For the second year, the spring banquet had become a war casualty, but its loss seemed not too great because so many of the men graduates of this division are in service or engaged in arduous war work and the women had had the opportunity of attending the Alumnae Association's spring banquet. It was decided,however,that an election should be held to replace the officerswho had served for the last two years. The following candidates were chosen,allowing for "write-in" alternates for all officesexcept that of new representative to the General Alumni Board,a position automatically filled by the retiring president. The ballot below should be detached and sent to the Alumni Office, Crosby Hall, University of Buffalo,Buffalo 14,New York. j PRESIDENT: : : □ Waring John T. Horron, '26 : A.

Engineering School Needed in WNY Support of the University's efforts to an engineering school, which, he emphasized, is direly needed in this area, was urged by Dr. Lewis A. Wilson, deputy commissioner of education of New York State, at the 98th annual commencement in Kleinhans Music Hall on May 24. Describing U. B. as "one of New York State'soutstanding universities,"Dr. Wilson pointed out that an engineering college, important both to local youth and to continued development of local industries, "deserves to be considered as one of the most important post-war projects in this community." "Your institution," he said, in reference to the University, "has served the youth, not only of Buffalo but of the state and nation for nearly a century in a varied number of fields. "The leadership of your graduates over this long period has made an indelible impression upon the cultural, social and economic welfareof both state and union." establish The University of Buffalo is located in "the second greatest metropolitan area of the state, an inland empire havinga population exceeding a million people residing within 50 miles of its campus. This population is greater than that of the state of Rhode Island, Maine or Montana or of any one of ten other states. "The exer-expanding field of engineering education in all its phases is destined to play an increasingly important role in the future economic life of America," the commissioner added. He stressed the need for an engineering school because of the wide diversity of the sections industries, unequalled in any similar area of the state. The traditional academic procession to the strains of Elgar's "Pomp and Circumstance" combined with the military aspects of the exercises to make this graduation a memorable one. The most impressive phase of the ceremonies was the administration of the oath and presentation of Army and Navy commissions to 34 dental graduates. Eight of the graduates who received first lieutenants' commissions have been ordered to active duty. ChancellorSamuelP. Capen, who in his prefatory remarks called attention to the important role universities are playing in the war effort, conferred 160 degrees and certificates. In his Baccalaureate address on Sunday, May 21, the Chancellorcautioned Americans to be "fore-warned and fore-armed" that the end of the war will be the cue for demagogues, bigots and subversive elements to step upon the stage and take advantage of the immediate confusion. While winning the war must be the first consideration, America must prepare for the challenge of the day of victory. For then, he explained, the nation "will need men and women who believe passionately in the rule of law and the equal application of the law to all; who are determined that the government shall be all times the servant of the people, never their master; who will stand up for the rights of minorities against all attacks from whatever source; who are convinced that the slow and often halting processes of democracy offer the surest road to individual and social improvement." "Every one who understands the genius of American institutions believes that the controls should be progressively relayed as the instruments of production and distribution resume their normal functioning, and that they should disappear altogether at the earliest safe date." The following degrees and certificates were awarded: certificatein secretarial and office administration,5; certificatein business administration,2; certificatein public health nursing, 1; certificatein arts and 2; degree of bachelor of science m sciences, industrial technology, I; degree of bachelor of science in nursing, 4; degree of bachelor of science (in the Schoolof Business Administration), 5; degree of bachelor of library science,4; degree of bachelor of arts, 44; degree of bachelor of education, 14; degree of bachelor of science in pharmacy, 13; graduate certificatein social work, 6; degree of master of social service,3; degree of master of education,4; degree of master of arts, 7; degree of doctor of dental surgery,45. at NEXT BULLETIN IN FALL This is the last issue of the Alumni Bulletin until October.None will be published during the summer but the next issue will be sent to Buffalo alumni and friends at the beginning of the fall semester of the 1944-1945 academic year. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

By the time you read this, two appeals to the 1944 Alumni Loyalty Fund will have been mailed. Have you responded with your gift? As this is written,gifts are coming in so steadily in answer to the first mail appeal that it seemed unwise to try to list the names of the contributors. Their gifts therefore,are not included in the summarywhich appears in the table. However, an early report indicates that almost $600 had been sent in by 41 interested alumni during the five days immediately following the first mailing. A satisfactory beginning, indeed! A Message from the University Sincethere is no person better qualified to speak on the present situation of the University and its immediate prospects than its head, ChancellorCapen was asked to prepare a statement on this subject for the informationof the alumni body. Part of is given below. his message For more than a yearthe University has been in part a military training school. A unit of five hundred A.A.F. cadets has been quartered on the campus. The Medical and Dental Schools have also had assigned to them approximately four hundred Army and Navy trainees. The civilian enrollment has been reduced by about fifty percent. Nevertheless,for this smaller number the University has continued the regular program of instruction in all its divisions. The Army has recently ordered the discontinuance of almost all collegiate training units, except those devoted to medicine, dentistry and engineering. The University is therefore losing its A.A.F. cadets and there is little prospect of further military assignments. This will be a serious blow to us, as you can readily understand. Not only uill the University's direct contribution to the war be less impressive and less satisfying to the faculty, but the institution will be poorer, since the payments made by the Army for housing and instructing the cadets will cease. The faculty and administrative officers have not let this prospect daunt them,however. They have turned their attention to their next obligation. They are actively engaged in planning to meet the special needs of returning ex-service men and women. Before very long many of these may be expected to attend the University to pursue either short special courses or one or another of the regular degree programs.Indeed, a few who have received medical discharges are already enrolled. I hope and believe that when returning veterans are among us in large numbers we shall be fully prepared to give them effective help in continuing their education and in making the readjustment to civilian life.

It is engaged in raising a fund by special subscription to erect and equip an engineering laboratory. With this addition to its facilities it can offer a jour year program in engineering. The response to the University's appeal his been very encouraging. I believe the moneyfor the building will be in hand by the time the Govtrnmentrestrictions on new construction are lifted. Chancellor Capen concluded his statement of the with an expression of the confidence administrative authorities that the high scholastic quality and the atmosphere of freedomof the University can be preserved even in these uncertain times with alumni help and sympathetic understanding. This is our chance to demonstrate our loyalty by supporting our Alma Mater in a time of great uncertainty. If you haven't already done so, please send your gift now. Pre-Mailing Returns The tabular report as of May 6th indicates that both the Loyalty and Memorial Funds have been prospering very well, even before the Loyalty mail appeals were issued. And many of the returns are again coming from alumni in service. One letter received last month from a Memorial Fund agent was unusual enough to warrant inclusion in this article. It read as follows: Received and forwarded the Memorial Fund material today but I'm sorry to say that I can't send in my own dues. At present I'm at the front in Italy, and as we're paid in Military currency, and I brought no check book. I'll have to postpone my payments for the time being. Promise 'tho that I'll catch up when the time comes! Cap!., Dental Corps.

ALUMNI PROMOTED Alumni for whom changes of rank have been received since they were listed in previous issues of the Bulletin are given below, arranged according to their new ranks. Hero of a 2000-mile Arctic flight to save the life of a soldier is Maj. Daniel H. Maunz, PhG '24, MD "31, of the Army Medical Corps, who made his first parachute jump to perform an emergency operation. He made the perilous flight from Presque Isle, Me., to northern Baffin Land, 400 miles inside the Arctic Circle where a member of an outpost staff was ill with acute appendicitis. A transport plane, guided by an aerial explorer, circled down to 1200 feet above the snowbound post. Four small parachutes carrying medical and surgical supplies went over and the major followed, landing in a snowbank less than 300 yards from the outpost. Marooned at the station nine weeks because of unfavorable landing conditions, Maj. Maunz suffered a leg fracture when a sled motor pinned him to the ground. He fashioned splints and set the leg himself. Eventually a plane landed and he was transferred to a base hospital at Presque Isle. The appendectomy was successful. Red Cross Field Director Frank D. Baron, BS (Ed) '34, in Bougainville on Dec. 24 awoke at dawn to find the earth and air about him all aquiver. "There was a small active volcano nearby," he explained later, "and I decided that it must be erupting. Then the earth under my feet gave a sickening heave, and I fell down, as did the other boys. Trees were grinding and groaning as the earth twisted and turned under them. There were two 155-mm guns in the camp area, and they went off with a terrific bang to climax the whole thing. Both they and the air-raid siren had gone off accidentally from the shaking they received. After the convulsion stopped, we found nothing left of our camp and bombproof shelter but a few fogs sticking out of a heap of torn sandbags and earth." Listed by the War Department as missing in action since Feb. 22, Second Lt. Eugene Senfield, BS (Bus) '39, now is known to be a prisoner of war in Germany, the International Red Cross has disclosed. Pilot of a B-17 bomber, he arrived in Casablanca just before New Year's Day and by the end of January had completed 17 missions. Operating a roadside evacuation hospital just ahead of the Ledo Road in Burma is Capt. John A. Leone, MD '27. This "Highway to Tokyo" is being built and rebuilt at an incredible speed through mountainous country to help supply the Allied drive. MAUNZ '24, '31 In the African and Sicilian campaigns as a radar expert, Tech. Sgt. Marshall O. Walker, BA '38, returned to the States with a wounded foot. He is now at Camp Davis, N. C, where he is teaching radar. A physician specializing in the study of radiology at Los Angeles County Hospital, Calif., before her enlistment in the Naval Medical Corps, Mildred Templeton Healey. MD '41, has been commissioned a lieutenant and stationed at the Naval Hospital, Long Beach, Calif. She is the first U. B. medical alumna known to be in service. Red Cross Field Director Aaron Weinstein, LLB '34, former Buffalo attorney and assistant manager of the Lakeview Housing Project, and Pfc. Aaron Weinstein in New Delhi were recently entangled in a bewildering series of events. It all began when Pfc. Weinstein, who is no relation to the Buffalo Weinstein, received a five dollar Christmas gift from the Buffalo Housing Authority. Not knowing anyone in Buffalo, the G. I. thought it was a splendid example of Yuletide spirit. Then came a letter informing him that "Junior" was on the way and his wife was in excellent health. Going to the Red Cross Headquarters one day he was introduced to Field Director Weinstein, in- U. S. ARMY Officer Candidate—Harold J. Fogel, BA "40. Pfc—William J. Cassell, BA '42. Corp.—Simon B.

Program Pan-American Institute designed to An Inter-American promote hemispheric solidarity celebrated University of Buffalo Day on April 13. Principal speaker was Senor Julio Alvarez Del Vayo, foreign minister of Spain under the republic. "Seizure of power by pro-Fascist officers in Argentina and the change of government in Bolivia are elements of a great German plot to undermine American solidarity," Senor Del Vayo de- clared. "There is not any country in South America safe from a coup d'etat," he continued, pointing out that the Spanish Government is an active supporter of fifth column activities there. "Every Spanish Falangist embassy, consulate and trade mission is carrying on the nefarious work of the Germans. German submarines refuel at Spanish ports and vital supplies are sent to Hitler, he explained. "I am proud of beinp a Spaniard and it is not easy for me to say don't send food to Spain," he added. Another feature of the day was a roundtable discussion of Air Transportation in Latin America. Only the failure of the United States government to establish an air policy with other nations darkens the bright outlook for a great era of air commerce with South America after the war, the experts concluded. A talk by Dr. Harold E. Davis, director of the educational division of the office of the Co-ordinator of Inter-American Affairs; a lecture on The Music of the Americas by Mrs. Charles Mott. Grosvenor Library director ; and a lecture on The Best of Latin American Poetry by Dr. Seaver R. Gilcreast, head of the romance language department; were among the other highlights of the day. Dr. Gilcreast is president of the Pan-American Council of Buffalo which sponsored the program. " Veterans' Education For veterans returning from this war, the University has planned an 11-point program of educational services covering virtually every field of study and making special provision to assist the discharged service man in bridging the gulf between his life as a soldier and his life as a student. The program, announced by Chancellor Samuel P. Capen, has been established partly as a result of the "G. I. Bill," now in process of enactment. The bill provides one year of college education for every returned veteran who has served six months in the armed forces and more than one year if he has been incapacitated. The services offered in the University's program include: individual education guidance; information on vocational opportunities ; arranging for university credit for military experience and specialized training programs; and voluntary testing service for aptitudes and program advisement.

Shadle, chairman of the unit. Since the unit was established in October, 1942, 481 women, principally from the University district, have worked 16,030 hours to produce 199,000 surgical dressings and surgical masks. Its quota was 170,000, or 1,000 per month as stipulated by Red Cross headquarters in granting permission for the organization of the unit. In addition, 705 knitted garments were completed by 225 persons. A committee on veterans' educational services has been appointed at the University with Chancellor Capen as chairman and Dean Lewis A. Froman as vice chairman. Information on the veterans' program is available at Dean Froman's office, 125 Ciosby Hall. A site on the University campus is one of two being considered by the State Education Department in connection with the establishment in Buffalo of a state institute of technical training to serve the Niagara Frontier in the immediate postwar period. The department will establish institutes to train men and women in arts, crafts, subprofessions and technologies, including agriculture, retail business management and aeronautics, through curricula not exceeding two years in length. It may take title to lands and buildings in preparing for the education of returning veterans or persons released from war industries. According to the Education Department's plans, the courses to be offered at the Buffalo institute will be for high school graduates and will be two years in length. FARBER WINS FELLOWSHIP Dr. Marvin Farber, professor and chairman of the department of philosophy, has been appointed to a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Fellowship for research on a program for constructive philosophy. He will undertake a project which will involve a discussion of the merits and limitations of the various philosophical methods in relationship to specific problems, and the development of a set of directive and regulative theses. A founder of the International Phenomenological Society and the quarterly journal, Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, of which he is editor, Dr. Farber has published numerous studies and is the author of books and articles on philosophy and phenomenology.

E READY TO ANSWER THE 1944 FUND CALL �3 ALUMNI BULLETIN 1944 SUMMER SESSION MARKS THIRD DECADE - Pre flight aeronautics for elementary school pupils, the advisement, education and placement of veterans, the art of the moving picture, a writer's workshop, Russia from 1860 to the present day, children in wartime, social work problems arising out of military service—these are but a few of the up-to-the-minute studies and activities that students at the University will be engaged in this summer. The Summer Session will be lengthened by one week, being conducted on an 18-week basis this year to serve accelerating students. The extra week will be added to the special period, from May 22 to July 1, which is planned for the special needs of some departments. The next period, from July 5 to August 12, also will offer courses for teachers and school administrators. The last period will start August 14 and end September 23. The normal Summer Session program for any one six-week period is six semester hours, and the maximum is eight semester hours. The number of semester hours which may be carried during an entire summer is limited to the number of weeks attended plus two. Thus a student who attends the 18-week session may earn more than a semester of credit. The Summer Session program has again been planned to meet the needs of its three main types of students, regular college students, recent high school graduates and educators now in the school system. Special War-Related Courses Courses in pre-flight aeronautics have been established in thousands of schools throughout the United States. Their purpose is to educate youth to an understanding of the importance of aviation in the present war effort and in post war living and to prepare some of them to enter aviation occupations. Recognizing that the quality of instruction depends upon an adequate supply of qualified teachers, the Summer Session is offering a laboratory course in which problems concerned with the development and organization of instructional materials for classes in pre-flight aeronautics may be studied. The United Air Lines school and college service department has given a summer scholarship grant to the University to assist teachers in pre-flight aeronautics instruction. The recipients are to be selected on the basis of (1) superior teaching and leadership ability, (2) interest in the services that aviation is rendering our war effort and will render the public in the post war age, (3) desire to make a worthwhile contribution for the age of flight, and in some instances, (4) the need for financial help in order to attend the Summer Session. Those who are interested should notify the Summer Session Office of the University. Meteorology. Tutorial Work in Geography and Geology, and Introduction to Navi- TREE-LINED VISTA LEADS TO BOOKSTORE Picture, including gation and Piloting will also be offered for those interested in pre-flight aeronautics. Problems in the Advisement and Education of Veterans will be considered in a new course which will include organization for serving veterans, educational and vocational counseling, techniques of interviewing, disabilities in relation to occupations, mental hygiene, relations with private and governmental agencies, and placement. Art Courses on Campus This year, for the first time, all Albright Art School courses being given in the Summer Session may be taken on the University campus. Two of the art instructors are new to the Summer Session. They are Charles Le Clair and Edna P. Meibohm, Edß '36. New Courses Design and Criticism in the Visual Arts will provide a basis for distinguishing between good, mediocre and bad works of art, regardless of their historical origin. Motion pictures as a branch of drama will be considered in The Art of the Moving ATTENTION ALUMNI! You can be of great service to your school, particularly at this time, if you will urge superior high school seniors to consider the University as the college of their choice. With the departure of the Air Corps trainees, it is more essential than ever that the University's civilian registration be kept as high as possible without in any way allowing a deterioration of standards. Be a good alumnus—interest at least one student in your alma mater this year. American and foreign films and producers, propaganda, cartoon and documentary films, and the criticism of current productions. A guided Writers' Workshop is designed to cultivate the ability to write interestingly by the composition of frequent short writings. Development of subject-matter and vigor in style in both prose and verse will be emphasized. The School of Social Work will present two new courses. Children in Wartime will deal with the effects of wartime conditions upon child welfare, the special problems in child behavior, parental neglect, daytime care, child labor, health and emotional disturbances. Social Work Problems Arising out of Military Service will include military welfare, home service to families of armed force personnel, special problems of rejectees and military discharged cases, wartime community services, rehabilitation of devastated areas, war prisoners, refugees and victims, political and racial discrimination. Russia (1860-1944) is being given by the History department. It will cover the gradual westernization of Russia before 1914; Lenin and the revolution of 1917; the Communist regime, the industrialization of Russia and its relation with other powers until the present year. This department will also offer a course on Latin America, a survey of the political, economic and cultural history of the Latin American republics from the close of the wars for independence to the present and their relations with each other and the United States. These and other courses being offered for the first time in the Summer Session are in addition to the regular program which includes customary courses in all major fields. �4 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI BULLETIN Published monthly except July, August and September, by the University of Buffalo at 3435 Main Street, Buffalo 14.

Burchfield Named Buffalo's Man of the Year His "convincing revelation of the beauty latent in familiar surroundings" earned the Chancellor's Medal of the university last month for Charles Ephraim Burchfield, "artist and master craftsman, pioneer exponent of American regionalism, authentic interpreter" of his home country and his epoch. This bestowal for the first time of Buffalo's only civic accolade upon a luminary of the fine arts highlighted the fortyfourth annual mid-year convocation exercises held on Feb. 22 in Kleinhans Music Hall. Recognized as the leading landscape painter in the country today, Mr. Burchfield vividly interprets on canvas distinctive aspects of the Westctn New York countryside, local streets and Buffalo Harbor. His painting of "the American scene'" before it was officially labeled is believed by many to have caused the return of American artists to an appreciation of their own local scene. Critics almost unanimously agree also that Mr. Burchfield has no peer in painting somber twilights, heavy snow, or brilliantly hued flowers. "The wholesale destruction wrought by this most destructive of wars" strongly emphasizes the fact that "the most nearly permanent human creations are the products of the mind and the imagination," the Chancellor pointed out in his citation address. "Behind the superficial ugliness of the typical American town, its unplanned streets, its shabby houses, its teeming railroad yards, its frequently awkward churches," the artist "has found aspects of arresting beauty," he continued. "The southern shore of Lake Erie, a land at once rough and gracious; a land of fierce winds and lowering skies, but of gentle Summers this is his land, the and luscious Falls land whose varying features he has sought to capture and disclose."' Mr. Burchfield received his art training at the Cleveland School of Art. For several years he designed wallpaper for M. H. Birge and Sons of Buffalo, devoting his free time to his easel. In 1929 he decided to concentrate exclusively on his painting. He has been represented in almost every national show since 1928 and his exhibition at the Rehn Gallery in New York last November was selected by the Art News as one of the 10 best shows of 1943. .. CHARLES E. BURCHFIELD, INTERPRETER OF "THE AMERICAN SCENE" The recipient of some of the highest awards offered to artists in this country, Mr. Burchfield has received second prize at the Carnegie International Art Exhibition, Pittsburgh (1935); first prize at the Newport, R. L, annual exhibition (1936); the Award of Merit Medal of the American Academy of Arts and the American Institute of Arts and Letters, New York (1942); and first prize at the San Diego, Cal., exhibition (1943). He was elected to the American Institute in 1943. A complete one-man show of his most noted works will be staged at the Albright Art Gallery in Buffalo from April 14 to May 15. 67 Are Graduated Sixty-seven degrees and certificates were awarded at the exercises, as follows: degrees—bachelor of arts, 22; bachelor of library science, 2; bachelor of science in the School of Business Administration, 3; bachelor of education, 3; bachelor of science in nursing, 9; master of arts, 1; master of business administration, 1; master of education, 6; master of social service, 2; and certificates—in business administration, 1; public health nursing, 1; social work, 1; {Continued on Page 2) �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 2 1944 FUNDS START THE YEAR WITH A BANG 245 Contributors Send $1,281.80 The second annual appeal for contributions to the Alumni Loyalty Fund will soon be issued. Recent events such as the curtailment of the Army Air Forces college training program have strengthened our realization of the uncertainty of the present and unpredictability of the future. Thus far, our university has managed to keep its head well above water and will, we trust, continue to do so with our help. If you wish to send your gift early, it will be that much more welcome. Token or installment type gifts are appreciated and war bonds credited at face value. // you give a u-ar bond, be sure to ask the agency to return the bond to you to avoid having it sent directly to the university with no hint of the contributor's identity. Current Returns Gifts have been coming in steadily from Class Memorial pledgors (from the 1936 Class on). The table below reports encouraging results both in number of payments and total amount. The 1944 Loyalty Fund is also off to a good start, bolstered by the very generous gift of the Dental Alumni Association. The grand total of $1281.50 represents almost one-fifth of the 56865.88 collected from July 1, 1942 to Dec. 31, 1943. And, to quote a former radio headliner, "That's only the beginning, folks, only the beginning."

A skit illustrating the discussion was presented by Mrs. Arthur A. Whiting, radio chairman of the Amherst League of Women Voters. On January 29 Dean Lillias M. Macdonald entertained the alumnae directors and officers at a tea in the College Club. ' ' DENTISTRY At a dinner meeting last month at which officers were installed, the Dental new Alumni Association decided to hold its annual meeting next fall and also voted to give $500 to the university's Loyalty Fund. Russell W. Groh, DDS '18, new dean of the Dental School, and all alumni committeemen attended the meeting. LAW At the Law Alumni Association luncheon held last month in New York City in connection with the State Bar Association's annual meeting, Judge Charles B. Sears, vice-chairman of the university council, was guest of honor. Speeches in praise of his distinguished record as an attorney and as judge and referee of the Court of Appeals were made by John Lord O'Brian, '98, Philip Halpern, '23, and Justice Samuel J. Harris, '07, LLM '08. Acting Dean Halpern also pointed out that the war has brought about one of the school's lowest registrations, with only 25 in the freshman and senior classes. But it is one of the three largest in the country. Morey C. Bartholomew, '09, as chairman of the Fund committee, appealed for contributions to the Alumni Loyalty Fund. PHARMACY ALUMNAE Ethel I. Woodward, Phß '11, was hostess to alumnae of the School of Pharmacy at a donation card party on January 28. One-half of the funds raised at the party was contributed toward the completion of a girls' lounge in Foster Hall, the other half being used to supplement the scholarship fund. The alumnae held a dinner and theatre party on February 23 and are also planning a meeting in March. SOCIAL WORK The social work alumni heard Dean Niles Carpenter speak on "Social Conditions Among American Indians in the Dakotas and Minnesota" at their February luncheon meeting in the Y. W. C. A. Miss Helen Wayne, a supervisor in the New York State Department of Social Welfare who has been in charge of Indian affairs, also contributed to the program. The new social work representative to the General Alumni Board is Betty Knight Maunz, BA '33, Soc '38. 3 Air Cadets to Leave Although change long has been the order of the day and adjustment the password, the announcement of the withdrawal of the Army Air -i^rces Training Program at the university frill came as a surprise. For the many schools whose civilian registrations have declined, the loss of Army trainees presents real problems of war-time operation. Our own university falls into this group. Abandonment of the program will be accomplished gradually. AAF students now attending will complete their courses but no new ones will be accepted, thus bringing Buffalo's program to a close about May 15. The curtailment order affects approximately 70 colleges all over the country. The War Department said the move was in conformance with Gen. H. H. Arnold's recent report in which he stated that "as the war continues, emphasis will naturally shiftfrom training of vast numbers of new men to the training of replacements." The AAF emphasized that "elimination of any particular college does not reflect dissatisfaction relative to the performance of the school." The manner of elimination appears to be based on the principle of relieving an excessive and unnecessary burden on the nation's railway system and at the same time effecting a large saving of travel funds and military man hours in ... transit. Chancellor Capen pointed out that our present civilian registration is 850, compared to the average peacetime figure of somewhat less than 2,000. "I foresee grave problems in the immediate future," he said, "with little surcease foi the duration of the war. However, we shall meet them as they arise and shall do our best in trying circumstances." FEBRUARY IN REVIEW Feb. 2— Social Hygiene Day meeting at Hotel Statler. Dr. Earl D. Osborne, professor of dermatology and syphilology at the Medical school, moderator of the round table discussion.

Presentation of the Chancellor's Medal. — Fund Enters 2nd Year The year of infancy is over! And at the a reckoning shows that $6,865.88 was sent to the university through the Alumni end, Loyalty and Class Memorial Fund. The total represents gifts from 639 contributors and includes all money received after June 30, 1942 and before January 1, 1944. Certainly this is an excellent showing despite the fact that the number of those responding to the appeals represents less than 6% of the total alumni body. However, the Committee on Funds expects that 1944 will bring a marked increase in the number of those contributing as well as in the amount given. This hope is founded on the fact that $661 has already been received for the 1944 Alumni Loyalty Fund, $500 of which represents the very generous and unprecedented gift of the Dental — Alumni Association, and that more than 5450 has been contributed by Class Memorial pledgors thus far. Since most of the pledgors' statements were not mailed until February 1 and the 1944 Loyalty Fund appeal has not been launched in force yet, the returns of $1,100 are more than encouraging.

Mr. Blackburn was also assistant treasurer of the university for the past 23 years.

To promote the integration of the medical-dental program developed at the university, both schools were put under a single dean in 1935. This cooperative plan has proved so successful that an interdivisional board was established this month to co-ordinate all university units concerned with maintenance and protection of health. The units thus affectedare the Schoolsof Medicine,Dentistry, Pharmacy and Nursing and the curricula for medical technologists and for teachers of physical education. bequests. Mr. Wahle, an electrical contractor, specified in his will that a trust fund be set up for his wife to provide her with a life income and that, upon her death,the residue of his estate, after specific bequests are paid to relatives and friends, is to be BOARD used to establish "The Richard E. Wahle Research Fund" for the university if accepted by the Medical school. Filed with the will was a letter addressed to the Schoolof Medicine,stating Mr. Wahle's "desire and intent that the fund be used to promote the study for cures of so-called blood diseases of the group of conditions that come under the headings of aplastic or refractory anemias." If the principal objectives are reached,he directed that the remainder "be utilized to further the understanding of other so-called blood diseases." According to the will of Frank C B. Held, former Buffalo publisher, the university is to receive two-fifthsof the residue of his estate after certain trust funds have been established. Mrs. Stephen M. Clement,who during her lifetime had given the university a total of $80,000 over and above gifts made by her family, bequeathed an additional $1,000 to the university. A member of the first group of women elected to the council in 1920, Mrs. Clement took an active interest in university affairs. Acceding to her wishes,the council accepted her resignation in 1941, making this comment: "Her service on the board covered a period of 20 years of constructive,sympathetic and generousservice,for which the university will always remain her debtor." Members of the council and other university administrators who enjoyed stimulating association with her expressed sincere regret at the termination of her long and distinguished career. Nelson G. Russell,MD '95, is the chairman of the five-member Advisory Health Board recently established by Buffalo's Mayor Joseph J.

Remember the ALUMNI LOYALTY FUND in 1944 �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO The Chancellor's Report (ABSTRACT) Tothe Councilofthe University ofBuffalo I have the honor to submit the report of the chancellor for the academic year 1942-1943: UNIVERSITIES AND THE WAR of the Selective Service From the passage Act up to the early summer of 1942 committees representing the colleges and the universities had been constantly urging upon government agencies the adoption of the three following general policies: (1) provision for the continued production of an adequate number of trained men and women to supply both the needs of the armed forces and the civilian services; (2) the formulation of a comprehensive policy for the complete use of the immense training facilities possessed by the higher institutions; and (3) the establishment or designation of a single agencyto conduct the relations of the government with the higher institutions. With the creation of the War Manpower Commissionprogressbegan to be made toward these objectives. It has continued throughout the past twelvemonths. It must be assumed that the colleges and universities are now being asked to train the requisite numbers of specialists of any kind either service will need. It is by no means so clear that an adequate number of persons is being trained to meet the equally vital professional and technical needs of civilian life. The government's attempts to remedy the critical shortages of civilian experts in a number of technical fieldshave been only partially successful. The SelectiveService System has deferred both undergraduate and graduate chemistry, students of physics, mathematics, bacteriology and most branches of engineering together with students in professional schools of agriculture, pharmacy, medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine and theology. The deferment of such students simply permits them to finish their professional preparation, and leaves until a later date the decision as to whether they are to be assigned to military service or to receive continued defermentas persons engaged in "critical occupations." The second method employed by the government to increase the supply of professional personnel for civilian activities has been exhortation of all qualified young women to prepare themselves for the scientificprofessions and technical specialties which previously attracted few women practitioners or none at all. The results of this campaign of exhortation are encouraging. However, the effectivenessof these efforts has been somewhat offset by the now familiar habit of the government to work at cross purposes with itself. Women students embarked upon a course of training for these new professional careers are subjected to urgent patriotic appeals to enlist at once in the WAVES or the WAC or the SPARS,or to enter some essential war industry. An official clarificationof the status of women technical and professionalstudents is assuredly called for. If preparation for a scientific specialty is a patriotic service, there should be no counter appeals. Women students should n. t have laid upon them the added burden cf a choice among patriotic duties. The third method that the government has adopted for increasing the supply of technically trained persons has been the subsidization of training programs. A summaryof the progress to date toward the ends which college and university spokesmen have so persistently advocated for the last two yearscan, therefore,be made in the following terms. The War and Navy Departments are now making systematic use of the collegiate training facilities of the country to an extent sufficient to meet the needs of these services. Something like a single avenue of communication between the armed forces and the colleges exists in the joint committee representing the Army, the Navy and the War Manpower Commission. However, in contracting for and administering training programs each institution deals separately with the War Department or the Navy Department. A multiplicity of government agencies still has contact with the collegiate institutions in the promotion and the direction of civilian training programs important for the national welfare; and in this field there is no unity of policy, nor is there yet assurance that the supply of men and women in training will be sufficientfor the civilian needs. The total facilities of the colleges and universities of the country are far from being used. University and college faculties have been decimated,suffering their most extensive losses in exactly those departments which form the core of the Army and Navy training programs. A directive of the SelectiveServiceheadquarters classifying university administration and university teaching in certain scientific fields as "critical occupations," issued September 30, 1942,came too late to repair the damage caused by the draft. And special invitations from non-military government agencies to individual teachers continue to be issued. There can be no remedy for this steady dilution of the quality of the university enterprise until the government recognizes the situation and, at least in those institutions conducting training profor the armed forces,puts academic instruction on the basis of assignment. The Army programsare as highly concentrated as possible. The content is prescribed,sometimes in full detail. Quite naturally these limitations do not always win the approval of college and university officers.Many college teachers have serious reservations concerning the educational effectiveness of the dose they are engaged to administer. But when this has been admitted, the contracting institutions can feel nothing but satisfaction with the Army's policy toward the direction of the educational program itself. The military officersin charge of units of trainees have jurisdiction over only the physical aspects of the trainee's day. The direction of his intellectual activities is in the hands of the faculty. This division of responsibility has contributed much to the high morale of most of the training units. The real crisis of university education under the impact of the war continues to turn about the partial eclipse of liberal learning. In so far as the humanities figure at all in the Army programs, they are included for their purely utilitarian values. The whole orientation of American civilization has been determined by our faith in liberal education. Our people have instinctively clung to the ideal of knowledge for the enrichment of life. The vast body of people young and old whose formal education has been acquired in the general high school and the liberal arts college has set the pattern of our national life for two generations. It was their quick comprehension of the principles at stake in the present world conflict that instantly unifiedthe nation,and has energized it for a concerted voluntary effort which has no historical parallel. THE EFFECT OF THE WAR ON THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO AND THE UNIVERSITY'S SPECIAL grams CONTRIBUTIONS The announcement of the Secretary of War that students in the Army Enlisted Reserve Corps would be called to active duty at the end of the first term led to a complete recasting of the plans of a large percentage of students in the campus divisions of the university; and necessitated extensive readjustments in the educational programsof the several divisions of the university. The lowering of the draft ageto eighteen a few weeks later placed practically the whole male student body within the immediate scope of the draft. It seemed probable that by the middle of the year �ALUMNI BULLETIN least half of the student population would be gone. The financial results of such a wholesale evacuation promised to be very serious. To offset in part the expected loss of income the Council and the General Alumni Board issued urgent appeals to the friends of the university, and to its graduates, for emergency contributions which might be used to reduce the anticipated deficit. These appeals were the first of exactly this character that the university has ever made. The response was most gratifying. The report of the comptroller and treasurer shows that $66,727.79 was contributed,part of it in payment of former unpaid subscriptions, in answer to the Council'sappeal. The contributions of the alumni, which have continued to come in throughout the academic year, and are still flowing as this report is written, likewise total a substantial sum. The situation which the Counciland the administrative officers believed that they foresawin December,1942, did not in fact materialize. In the first place, onlv a handful of reservists had been called when the university was asked to accept an assignment of 400 Army Air Forces trainees; and before the assignment was actually made it was requested to accept an additional 100. The training program which the University of Buffalo conducts for Army Air Forces trainees is normally five months in length. Certain trainees whose previous education has included parts of the prescribed program remain in the unit for shorter periods of time. The general administration of the training program has been centered in the Officeof War Training which the Council established in March, 1943,with Dr. Lewis A. Froman as director. The very complicated tasks of scheduling and the assignment of instructors are in the hands of Dr. Ellis R. Ott, who has been appointed coordinator of instruction in that office. The members of the facultiesof the campus divisions by unanimous vote offered to undertake the instruction of the unit without extra compensation. They have loyally and enthusiastically fulfilled this selfat 3 few members of the staff will regard the experience as a professional loss. The members of the 23rd College Training Detachment are soldiers on active duty. They are under the command of Captain Harold D. Woodbury. The commanding officerand his assistants are responsible for the military training, the discipline, and the oversight of the housing and messing of the unit. The university counts itself especially fortunate to have assigned to it a group of officerswho are fully familiar with the circumstances of academic life and who are eager to avoid any of the causes of friction which might develop in the administration of an enterprise half military and half scholastic. For their tact and sympathetic insight the university owes them a debt of gratitude. The student soldiers who compose the 23rd College Training Detachment are a select group, eager to profit as fully as possible from the university's offerings. Members of the faculty report that they have never dealt with more earnest and interested students. Although the student soldiers are residents of the University of Buffalo for only a little more than one normal academic semester, the university counts them as full fledged members. The civilian students have gained much by their presence and as far as possible have amalgamated them into the student body. The university takes deep pride in being associated in their military and scientific education. To provide housing for 500 soldiers it was necessary to discontinue Norton Hall as a student union and to assign it to the Army Air Forces as a barracks and mess hall. Approximately half of the unit is housed there,and the whole unit is messed in the Norton Hall cafeteria. The university secured from the City Council the lease of the club house at GroverCleveland Park and converted that building into a barracks capable of housing approximately 250 men. Governmentcontracts with the colleges and universities are based on the principle that the institutions shall neither profit financially nor be out of pocket through conducting a training program. The report imposed obligation. of the comptroller shows that the university finished the fiscal year with a surplus, Beforethe arrival of the unit an inquiry instead of the deficit that had been exwas circulated amongthe members of the pected. The payments made by the governstaff that was designed to discover which ment on the Army contract, together with subjects in the programeach member felt other contracts later to be mentioned,were qualified to teach, and further, which only one factor in bringing about this individuals believed they could conduct fortunate result. Another factor was the satisfactory instruction in mathematics and delay in calling the student members of physics with the aid of refreshercourses the enlisted reserves to active duty. Leaves in advance of such an assignment. The of absence granted to a number of members inquiry revealed a surprising versatility of the instructional staff who were called with the result that the university has been to government service constituted a third able to staff the new classes almost entirely factor. out of its regular faculty. The scholarly The 23rd College Training Detachment output of the university will undoubtedly fall below its normal volume as long as was the only group of military personnel present conditions continue. Nevertheless, on active duty assigned to the university during the year under review. The joint committee of the Army, Navy and War Manpower Commissionhas approved the university, however,for contracts with the Army for Army basic training, for premedical and pre-dental training, and for medical and dental training and for contract with the Navy for medical and dental training. Just beforethe end of the fiscal yearpreliminary contracts with both services were negotiated covering the instruction of reservists in the Schoolsof Medicine and Dentistry. OTHER GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS In September, 1939 the university began to participate in the Civilian Pilot Training Program conducted by the Civil Aeronautics Authority. In the summer of 1942 the programwas transformed from a part-time to a full-time program. It was in effect until March,1943,when it was superseded by the Army and Navy college training programsfor aviation cadets. Sincethe summer of 1941 the University of Buffalo has been authorized to offer Engineering, Science,Management War Training courses in the general fields of science and industrial management. The regulations adopted by the U. S. Office of Education to cover the distribution of the appropriations provided that only approved four-year engineering schools should be eligible to receive federal funds for the support of courses in the general field of engineering. In 1941 the University of Buffalohad just established its first fouryear engineering curriculum, a curriculum in industrial technology leading to the degree of Bachelor of Scienceand combining instruction in fundamentalengineering subjects and in subjects from the general field of business administration. The first graduate in industrial technology received his degree on May 26th, 1943. Immediately thereafterthe U. S. Officeof Education approved the university for the administration of engineering courses within the general area of industrial technology. One of the largest and most important enterprises conducted by the university in the ESMWTprogram during the year under review was the training of approximately 800 members of the Signal Corps Reserve in a part-time curriculum eight months in length dealing principally with mathematics and electricity. SPECIAL GRANTS FOR SCHOLARSHIPS AND LOANS my In last annual report I recorded the university's indebtedness to the W. K. Kellogg Foundation of Battle Creek, Michigan, for its generous grants totalling $24,000, to the Schoolsof Medicine,Dentistry and Nursing. During the year under review the W. K. Kellogg Foundation gave the university an additional $5,000 for the aid of students in the Schoolof Medicine. The grant of $4,000 previously made to �4 the School of Nursing furnished that division with substantial assistance in the establishment of a new pre-clinical nursing program, to be pursued by student nurses during a six months' period before admission to a hospital school of nursing. The W. K. Kellogg Foundation made a further appropriation to the university of S-1,000 for scholarships and loans for students enrolled in the curriculum in clinical technology. For the second time the U. S. Public Health Serviceapproved an appropriation from federalfunds to the Schoolof Nursing, to be used for scholarships for students in advanced courses. The amount of the appropriation was $4825. LEAVES OF ABSENCE A total of 78 members of the teaching and administrative staffs of the university have been granted leaves of absence during the year under review, the majority to serve with the armed forces. In no preceding period has such an extensive draft been made on the intellectual resources of the university. Leaves were granted to the following: Jason Farber,M. D., Thomas L.

Forces 723, ESMWT 3137, Civil Pilot Training 185. The Council need not be reminded that the fees received from students constitute the largest single item in the university's annual income. In formulating the annual budget it is consequently necessaryto estimate with as much accuracyas possible the probable size of the student body of each division. When the budget for the year 1942-1943 was in preparation the estimating officersfelt no confidencein their ability to forecast the enrollment trends of that year. They expected far more serious losses in income from students than actually occurred. In preparing the budget for the year 1943-1944 the deans,the chancellor and the comptroller were equally at sea. Beyond a few fixed points all is uncertainty. The estimating officers have no way of foretelling how many male students will be registered in any undergraduate division, or for how long; or whether a large increase in the number of women students will take place. Once more, however, following the conservative budgeting practice adopted a number of years ago, the officerspresented, and the Council adopted, a balanced budget on June 29, 1943. PRESENT AND FUTURE POLICIES The University of Buffalo is wholeheartedly committed to making its utmost contribution to the successfulprosecution of the war. It must devote all of its available resources, human and material,to the task of specific training for war-related activities both military and civilian.

Gentlemen: The annual report of the comptroller for the fiscal yearwhich ended June 30, 1943 is presented herewith. The balance sheet,Exhibit "A," shows endowment assets of $6,596,887.66; plant assets of $7,080,143.06; and operating assets of $441,019.92. On June 30, 1943 the total funds in the endowment accountwere $6,596,887.66, as shown in Exhibit "A." On June 30, 1942 the total funds were $6,156,282.68. The net increase for the year, therefore, in endowment funds, was $440,604.98. Of this amount $370,857.66 represented the handsome gift of Jacob F. Schoellkopf, received by the university at Mr. Schoellkopf's death on September 9, 1942. Exhibit "B" is an analysis of land, buildings and equipment of the university at the close of the fiscal year on June 30, 1943. The total value of land, buildings and equipment on that date was $7,080,-038.47. The physical plant of the university is in splendid condition. It is the university's policy to keep its plant in excellent condition from year to year. The operations of the university for the year 1942-1943 present a more favorable aspect than for the two years immediately preceding it. It will be recalled that threatening skies overhung the colleges and universities of the land during the early months of the year covered by this report. It was rhen evident that the draft age would be lowered from 21 years to 18 years with the result that grave inroads would be made in the registration of the College of Arts and Sciences, School of Business Administration and School of Law. In September the Secretary of War announced that members of the Enlisted Reserve Corps, which included the major part of the male students in these three divisions,would be called to active duty at the close of the first semester of the year. Furthermore, it was not until February, 1943, that the government approved a list of institutions for specialized training of Army and Navy personnel. Except for the favorableoperation of the SummerSession, the financialprospects for the year were extremely precarious until February when the government opened negotiations for the establishment at the university of the 23rd College Training Army Air Forces. Detachment, Fees received from students during the year covered by this report represented 80.9% of the total income of the university for the year. Student fees received during the yearwere approximately $60,000 greater than in the preceding year. The increases came particularly in the School of Medicine and in the SummerSession. The Schoolof Medicine was operated on a twelve months' basis instead of on an eight months' basis as heretoforewith the result that its income for the year was 26.5% greater than in the preceding year. Attendance in the SummerSessionwas greatly increased because of the inauguration of the accelerated curricula throughout the university, which enabled manyundergraduates to accomplish a semester's work during the twelve weeks of the extended SummerSession.As a result, feesreceived from students in the summer of 1942 were more than 100 % greater than in the summer of 1941. In the Schoolof Business Administration,Millard Fillmore College and the Schoolof Law feesreceived from students were less than in the preceding year. Additional income was received from the government for the use of campus buildings and for the operation and maintenance of buildings used by the Army Air Forces. The university budget was further relieved of instructional salaries to the degree that members of the regular teaching staff were employed in the teaching of Army Air Forces trainees. Two other government agencies contributed to the income of the university for the year. These were the Engineering, Science, Management War Training Program in which part-time registered, 3137 students were and the Civilian Pilot Training Program, operated by Millard Fillmore College, under the direction of the Civil Aeronautics Authority. Of the total expenses of the university for the year ended June 30, 1943,49.4% was for salaries of instruction; 55.6%. was for salaries of instruction, plus supplies used in instruction and operation and maintenance of libraries. United States,state and municipal government bonds, purchased by the univer- sity, yielded an averageincome of 2.469' on the actual investment; foreign government bonds,4.59%; railroad bonds,4.24%; public utility bonds, 4.79% ; industrial bonds, 3.85%; miscellaneous bonds, all gifts, 1.83% stocks,4.06% real estate mortgages and mortgage certificates,.6%. The averageyield on all stocks and bonds purchased and owned by the university, and excluding gifts, was 4.1% for the year. The rate of return on the invested funds of the university was adversely affectedby the acquisition of United States GovernmentBonds. ; ; On June 30, 1943 the stocks and bonds in the university portfolio which had been purchased by the university, and excluding gifts, were classifiedas follows on the basis of market worth: United States,state, municipal and foreign government bonds, 24.4%; railroad bonds,7%; public utility bonds,6%; industrial bonds,1.7%; public utility preferred stocks,13.3%; industrial preferred stocks,4.1%; investment trust preferred stocks, 1-8%; bank preferred stocks, 1.1%; rail common stocks,.8%; public utility common stocks,2.9%; industrial common stocks, 22.8%; bank capital stocks, 4.1%; insurance common stocks, 6.2%; investment trust common stocks,3.8%. The list is well diversified and of high quality. Gifts and bequests received during the which ended June 30, 1943 included the following: Jacob F. Schoellkopf Fund, $370,857.66; W.B.E.N. Inc., $9,500; International Railway Company, $6,000; a gift for the establishment of a Chemical Library Fund, $5,045; CharlesG. Duffy, for the establishment of the CharlesG. Duffy Scholarship, $5,000; Dexter P. Rumsey, $3,600; Estate of SusanFiske Rumsey, $2,880; Mrs. Harriet McNulty, addition to James H. McNulty Professorship Fund, $2,000; Rudolph B. Flershem, $2,000; Edward Michael, $2,000; Estate of Evelyn R. Cary, addition to Dr. Charles Cary Memorial Fund, $1,672; Mr. and Mrs. William J. Donovan,$1,520; Atlas Steel Casting Company, $1,500; Barmon Brothers, $1,500; Mr. and Mrs. John W. Cowper, $1,500; Mrs. Norman E. Mack, $1,500; Barcalo Manufacturing Company, $1,000; Dr. B. J. Bixby, $1,000; James McC. Mitchell, $1,000; Frank E. Wattles, $1,000; J. H. Williams, $1,000; J. H. Williams and Company, $1,000; and Clinton R. Wyckoff, $1,000. year The university apparently will be able its operations without deficits through this critical period. For the expansion further of the university and for the development of its existing facilities, it must continue,however,to look to its friends and to its alumni for their financial support.

LOYALTY FUND RETURNS EXCEED $6000 Soonthe books will be closed to mark the end of the first fiscalyearof the Alumni Loyalty Fund. All contributions received after December 31 will be credited to the 1944 Fund, for the Loyalty Fund is the long-heralded channel through which aiumni can each year demonstrate tangibly their interest in and allegiance to their Alma Mater. Morey C Bartholomew,LLB '09, Chairthe Committeeon Funds, reports that the 1943 appeal, which opened in May of this year,has met with substantial support from those who have contributed but that the number of contributors is still small. He reminds all alumni that a yearly-giving fund of this type must have a large number of supporters to succeed and that the size of the gift depends solely on the individual—the small and the large contributions are all important in the total. And your gift this year is not a commitment in anyway for the future. man of Recently promoted to Captain is Irwin Ellentuck,DDS '42 ; Aviation CadetJulien C.Renswick,BA '43, is training to become a pilot. CAMPUS AIRCREW NEWS CANTEENS ESTABLISHED Norton Hall, formerly the StudentUnion building on campus, has housed aviation students for many months, has been the scene of several military weddings and now contains in its basement recreation room a real canteen. A second canteen for the cadets at the university has been set up in Grover ClevelandHall. Both canteens are operated by women's groups,the Norton by the MontefioreAuxiliary of B'nai B'rith and the Clevelandby a committee of women of the University District and the Universiry Heights Businessmen's Association. A recreation room also has been equipped by B'nai B'rith for the students stationed in ClevelandHall. PERSONNEL NOTES Among the trainees stationed at the university at one time or another have been two service veterans, both holders of awards. One,Pvt. Howard M. Nauroth,received the Legion of Merit award at a graduation ceremonyon campus in recognition of "exceptionally meritorious conduct" when an Air Transport Commandplane in which he was a passenger was forced down in inaccessible Canadianwilderness last winter. The other, Staff Sgt. Donald Clarke, veteran of 30 bombing missions and 300 com- bat hours, held the Air Medal with oak leaf cluster and the Distinguished Flying Cross for his work as an engineer-gunner during the 9 months he spent in the Middle East. Undergraduates on campus were surprised to recognize two former classmates among the aviation students when Lawrence D. Mclntyre and Gilbert R. Van Brocklin,Jr., were returned by the Army to the university for training. You will read elsewhere in this issue of the establishment of Army and Navy units at the Medical and Dental schools. The 23rd College Training Detachment of aviation students is, of course, still on the campus. You might therefore conclude that all of the university's needs have been met by having military students replace the civilian. But you would be wrong! Many of the normal functionsof universities are not covered at all under these programs. There is, therefore,a real need for help from interested friendsof the university. Won't you join your 617 fellow alumni who have already sent their gifts? Mail Loyalty Fund, Crosby yours to the Alumni Hall, University of Buffalo, Buffalo 14, New York. The undesignated $25 bond received October 8 has not yet been claimed.

Brown, MD '40, left his foxhole during an intense Japanese night bombardment of Guadalcanal, the War Department announced recently. Barefoot and partially clothed, the flight surgeon performed minor operations for three hours, working by dimmed flashlight. When his troopship was torpedoed 75 miles from Oran, Lt, Col. Frank E. Brundage, MD '09, was one of a group which went over the side and down ropes to a destroyer that pulled alongside. The ship was part of a convoy en route to Africa from England late last fall. Lt.

Aider, is the first physician who jumped with his men, the first jump taking place during a demonstration his paratroop unit gave for men in Ireland about a year and a half ago. He was wounded during the Tunisian fighting and had a miraculous escape from death when a French armored car in which he was riding hit a road mine which blew off the front of the car. paratroopers were sent presumably to jump behind the lines to disconcert the enemy. Capt. Alden, who dodged the Germans for 9 of the 12 days he spent behind their lines, described how a supposedly-friendly Italian civilian called "Roger'' had directed them the first day out to a German "carpark" which proved instead to be a division command post from which machine guns opened up on the group. Capt. Alden crawled over a bank into a corn field where he hid safely all the next day, but in which INTERESTING NEWS ITEMS The 23rd General Hospital unit which left Buffalo last year has been in North Africa for several months.

Too late?? Not if all alumni who haven't done so will contribute to the 1943 Alumni Loyalty Fund NOW! The Committee reports that the Fund is growing steadily. Thus far, the direct-mail appeals have met with excellent results— 568 Loyalty and Memorial Fund givers have sent in almost $5600 since June 30, 1942. The bulk of this amount arrived in response to the two appeals sent out in May and July. There is no quota for this first annual Fund. Neither is there any specification as to the size of the individual gift. Contributions range from $1 to $250 and all are gratefully received. In answer to many questions, no, your 1943 gift is not a commitment for future Funds. The appeal will berenewed yearly, yes—but we are not seeking pledges for the future. Just send in what you can now, and decide upon the size of next year's gift then. Unsolicited voluntary pledges which have been and will be received are, of course, welcome. The most disappointing element in the preliminary report is the small percentage of contributors. The 568 graduates who have given to the University through these funds represent little more than an approximate 5% of the total alumni body. Despite the fact that this is the first annual Fund, there are many more names which might be expected to appear on the 1943 Roll Call—and we feel sure that it is merely a matter of presenting the entire situation clearly to a great number of loyal alumni who are truly interested in the welfare of their Alma Mater. No person-to-person campaigning has been begun as yet. It is our hope that some will be done—but the exigencies of war will inevitably prevent accomplishment of an exhaustive individual solicitation. Therefore, we ask again that you act without this additional stimulus—for certainly the precariousness of the University's position can speak eloquently of her needs. Although in the throes of a partial military occupation, our University must sustain many of her normal functions by herself—at a time when civilian enrollments have shrunk like dehydrated foods. — 1943 ALUMNI LOYALTY FUND Returns as of Sept. 25 No. of Givers $4,587.70 251 Amount Loyalty Fund alone Senior Mem.

Thetotal yearly pledge is $374.50 (the equivalent of annual interest at 2% on $18,725.00).

The Alumni Loyalty Fund has been established. Envisioned for some time by loyal and interested alumni as the best means by which they and their fellow graduates could demonstrate tangibly allegiance to their Alma Mater and an appreciation of her problems as a private institution of higher education, this fund has been set up by the General Alumni Board's Committee on Funds. Chairman of the committee is Morey C. Bartholomew, LLB '09, whose report to the Board at its fourth annual meeting on June 3rd included a summary of the steps taken in the establishment of the project. He submitted the literature which had been mailed to all living graduates of the university for whom addresses are known. Even before the mailing piece had reached many of the alumni, some checks had been received "to start-the ball rolling." Mr. Bartholomew also reported encouraging results in the Senior Memorial Pledge presentation and solicitation as well as collection. Incidentally, if you have not mailed ycur contribution, why not take a minute now to make out a check and mail it in the business reply envelope enclosed with the fund pamphlet? A great many gifts, large and stone small, will add up each year to an amount which can play a large part in helping to solve the university's financial difficulties. That the need is particularly great at this time and in the imminent future was made clear in the brief comments of Chancellor Capen on the state of the university. President Leon J. Gauchat, DDS '19, introduced the new members of the General Alumni Board and welcomed the two members who had been re-elected by alumni vote to the University council. Griffith G. Pritchard, DDS '18, reporting for the Committee on Alumni Activities, described the extremely successful Homecoming Day football game played this year in Buffalo's Civic Stadium, the Bisons* first appearance there. He gave special credit to Marshall K. Stoll, BS (Ed) '36, chairman, and to the other members of the Homecoming Committee. From every point of view, including the financial, the day was a huge success. Talman W. Van Arsdale, Jr., BA '38, MA '40, reported that branch club activity has come almost to a standstill as a result of the war while the associations are attempting to maintain interest even when meetings are curtailed in number. There was no report for the Committee on Bequests. Emily H. Webster, BA '23, reported that by acting as a member of both the Activities and Fund committees, by participating in the program of the Alumnae Association, and by assisting in various other university activities of the year, she had carried on an active public relations program. The annual report of the secretary was received and filed. The entire slate presented by James E. King, MD '96, chairman of the nominating committee, was elected by the group.

'24 ARTS ALUMNAE HOLD REUNION The annual reunion of the Class of 1924, College of Arts and Sciences alumnae, was held last month at the home of Ruth E. Cary, representative of the group on the board of directors of the Alumnae Association. 97th Commencement Held The Athletic Roundup In his Baccalaureate address on Sunday, May 24, Chancellor Samuel P. Capen emphasized the importance of remembering that the necessary forfeiting of freedoms and rights in the execution of total war must be but a temporary expedient because the inevitable regimentation produced is incompatible with American freedom and opportunity as we have known them. "Therefore," he asserted, "it behooves us to take note from moment to moment of exactly what privileges and prerogatives of American citizens we are surrendering in order to fight a total war. And we need to be inexorably determined to reclaim them completely once the emergency is past." On May 26, two weeks ahead of the normal schedule as a result of the accelerated program, the 97th annual commencement was held, the fifth of the academic year 1942-1943. Degrees, diplomas and certificates were awarded to 211 candidates at the exercises in Kleinhans Music Hall. The colorful academic procession was apbepreciably smaller this year principally cause of the early graduation of many accelerated students and because many of the men had entered the armed services before The university has joined the large number of schools which have discontinued intercollegiate varsity athletics for the duration. This decision was necessitated by the declining number of civilian students and a corresponding decrease in revenue from the sale of student athletic tickets. The following is a summary of varsity athletic competition during the 1942-33 year: Basketball graduation. The traditional ceremonies were observed: Dr. Albert G. Butzer pronounced the invocation and the benediction; the "Alma Mater" and the "Chorale" were sung respectively preceding and following the conferring of the degrees; and the exercises began with the singing of the national anthem. President Everett Needham Case of Colgate University delivered the commencement address. Asserting that political and economic issues as well as military must be solved now if our post-war problems are to be manageable, he advocated higher income adtaxes on a pay-as-you-go basis, upward justments of price ceilings to eliminate problack markets and encouragemaximum duction of basic foodstuffs and other policies designed to avert inflation.

On April 19, Rose Day was celebrated and campus students held their informal Senior Luncheon, an off campus affair since Norton Union, Jr., has no facilities for serving luncheons. On Tuesday, April 20, the unseasonable weather forced the seniors to hold the ivyplanting ceremony indoors. The ritual was performed via box and bushel basket on the stage of Edmund Hayes Hall auditorium. Although the traditional parade was omitted this year, the Moving-Up convocation was held on Wednesday, April 21. Gold and silver keys were presented to 29 students for their participation in extracurricular activities during the year. That evening, the tenth annual dinner of the board of managers of Norton Union was held and the new officers were announced, led by Carmen B. Tillinghast as president. She is the second woman student to hold this office, the first having been Nancy Lou Knowlton Binder. BA '36, originator of the Senior Memorial Pledge plan. On Graduation Night, Wednesday, May 26. the 1943 class will hold their Senior Prom at Kleinhans Music Hall. Music will be provided by the "Niagarians," announce co-chairmen Jerome W. Edelstein and Dean C. Stathacos. The dance is not closed. Women Win Prizes Joan K. Graham, freshman, is the winner of this year's Scribbler's Prize, awarded annually to the woman student who does the best piece of creative work in a competition to encourage writing. The Chi Omega prize for excellent work in the social sciences went to Alice G. Chmiel with a four-year history and government average of 2.78. Bond Booths Sales Exceed Quota The University of Buffalo Faculty bond booth, located at Sears, Roebuck and Company and operated by faculty women and wives, and two booths in Foster and Hayes halls, operated by the student Women's Organization for War Service (WOWS), far surpassed the goals set for them in the recent Cruiser "Buffalo" Campaign. Unceasing effort on the part of all those participating resulted in the enviable sales record. Aircrew Notes Temporary student officers have been named for the 23rd College Training Detachment stationed at the university. The aviation students thus selected include: group commander, Franklin M. Sciutto; group adjutant, Warren R. Brooks; supply officer, Roy A. Hatem; and squadron commanders Ernest P. Demos, Jerry M. Marsh and Alfred G. Carr. Norton Hall was recently the scene of the military wedding of Pvt. Robert Armstrong and Miss Margaret Watson. The bride was given in marriage by Capt. Harold D. Woodbury, commanding officer of the detachment. 11 Medical Students Become Apprentice Seamen By resigning their commissions as ensigns and being sworn in as apprentice seamen, eleven medical students made an apparent downward step but are actually being benefited since the Navy will take over for them beginning July Ist, providing tuition, school expenses, board and room and paying them $50 a month. This procedure follows the lines of the Naval Reserve's V-I2 program. Upon graduation the men will be commissioned lieutenants junior grade in the Medical Corps Reserve. In Memoriam The university's flag flew at half-mast one day late in April in tribute to George A. Fleury, day watchman on the campus. A familiar figure to campus students and faculty alike for the past 15 years, "George" died at his post, as he undoubtedly would have wished it.

SENIOR MEMORIAL FUND GROWS Contributionsreceived from Senior Memorial Fund pledgors since January Ist of this year now amount to more than $590, which is but a few dollars short of the total contributed during the calendar year of 1942 in the form of pledge payments and '42 Senior Ball proceeds ($145.43). When it is remembered that this $590 is the equivalent of $29,500 in endowment invested at 2%, the importance to the university of such a recurring gift is easily realized. Thus far, the returns on the 1943 pledges have been almost phenomenal. The Dental seniors joined as a group, 100% of the class, 39 strong. The Medical seniors signed 63 of the 66 pledge cards so far. And many of the pledgors have followed the example set them by classes of recent years by pledging more than $1 a year for the five year period. As a matter of fact, the average amount of the 102 pledges from the above two groups was $2.36, an excellent record. Returns will not be available from the other divisions for a few weeks since the cards are now being dis- .. tributed. Many interesting notes accompany the pledge payments. The following are quotes from some of these: "I hope the enclosed $5.00 brings me up to date on my various Alumni pledges—Arts '39 and Law '42." (From a private) "Sorry for the delay. These last few months have been hectic." "My wishes for continued good fortune with the Senior Fund." Dr. A. Bertram Lemon Summer Session Announces Programs The 1943 Summer Session will be conducted on an unprecedented 17-week basis. Under the accelerated plan, high school graduates will be admitted as freshmen June 28. That date marks the beginning of the 6-week period ending August 7 when courses for teachers and school administrators will also be offered. Full-time accelerating students will take courses during this first period and the six weeks from August 9 to September 18. In addition, a special period from May 24 to June 26 will be used by some departments to provide for special needs. While the training of the Army Air Force students has necessitated adjustments in the life of the campus, the Summer Session will attempt to meet the needs of its three main types of students, regular college students, recent high school graduates and educators now in the school systems. Arrangements have been made, for example, to introduce the new students to college life with special emphasis being laid upon the development of physical fitness. Entering Pre-Medical and Pre-Dental Students are Benefited Students graduating from high school this June and expecting to enroll in the pre-medical and pre-dental programs are being advised to begin their studies during the summer period. Those who enter on June 28 can complete their preparatory training by September 1944 and will then be ready to enter medical or dental school in January 1945. Since these divisions are admitting new freshman classes July 6 of this year and every nine months thereafter, those students who do not start the preprofessional training until this September will not be able to enter these schools until September 1945. Thus, by beginning three months earlier now (in June 1943), the students save nine months in 1945. Course Offerings Cover Wide Range In addition to offering a choice of customary courses in all major fields, the Summer Session is giving many timely and unusual courses. This is particularly true in the fertile field of the social sciences. For example, The European Background of World War II is being given by the History department and included in its description are the following tantalizing phrases: "the past as a basis for the future peace; and the most desirable elements of international cooperation and collective security." This department will also offer a course in which will be studied the origin and development of basic American Foreign Policies, with emphasis upon their relation to the present war. A description and analysis of the suggested Plans for Permanent Peace; a study of the culture and mode of life of various Peoples in the World at War; a study of the attitudes which are involved in Race and Nationality Prejudice, Social Psychology of War and Peace, Nationalism; a considertion of Propaganda, Rumor Censorship. Morale and Leadership: a summary of Philosophies in Conflict; a discussion of processes involved in meeting Social Problems Arising out of Military Service; courses in Military German, Elementary Portuguese. Elementary Russian and France Today, embodying discussions of the social and political problems of France; —all these are but a sampling of the widely varied offerings of this year's Summer Session. Courses in art will again be given under a cooperative plan with the School of Fine Arts of the Buffalo Fine Arts Academy. The courses in the history of art, in the teaching of art in elementary and secondary schools and some courses in art will be given in the university campus studios, this year to be located on the third floor of Hayes hall. Other art courses will be given in the School of Fine Arts studios on Elmwood Avenue. Miscellaneous Data Social activities formerly centered in Norton Hall will be carried on in Norton Union, Jr., on the second floor of Edmund Hayes Hall. The College of Arts and Sciences, the Library Science course, the Schools of Business Administration, Education, Nursing and Social Work and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences will operate through the Summer Session. Evening instruction will be available in some fields through courses offered by Millard Fillmore College.

Will.am G. Cook. BS '27, alumni secretary now on leave and with the army. Its timely message, inspiring loyalty and pertinent suggestion are so vitally important that its inclusion in this issue was deemed essential. Needless to say, Maj. Cook's wishes have been tarried out to the letter. I learn from the "Bee," which I receive gratefully every week, that the University of Buffalo is joining with other agencies of the community in the current national loan campaign, and that one day has been set aside for special effort among the office personnel of the University. Since I am still Alumni Secretary of the University, I should like to buy a $25 bond, with credit for the sale going to your office. A check for #18.75, payable to the Treasurer of the United States, is enclosed for that purpose. But I have a further request to make. I desire that the bond be issued, not to me as owner, but to the University of Buffalo, my alma mater. I make this second request in the hope that it may stimulate other loyal alumni to a similar demonstration of loyalty to their country and to their University. I have long felt that we alumni have done little enough, in time of peace, to acknowledge the debt we owe to the institution. In time of war, it is altogether too easy to forget the financial needs of higher education. By this simple act, one can serve two causes, at what is, after all, a relatively small cost to the individual. Would you be good enough to convey my idea on the subject to the General Alumni Board, whose power it is to accomplish a worthy purpose which I know will meet with the approval of citizens and alumni alike. Yours very sincerely, WilliamG. Cook, Major, Infantry. The Infantry School, Academic Department, Fort Benning, Ga„ April 14, 1943. No. 3 Betsy K. MacLeod. BLS '41, Buffalo district golf champion for several years, is the first alumna known to enter the WAVES and to earn the commission of ensign; Eugene Senfield. BS (Bus) '39, an .i/r cadet, made his first solo landing with jiiother plane nosed over on the field. Since the Alumni Office has been learning of more and more alumni who are serving on far-off fronts such as Iceland, Australia. New Guinea, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Egypt, England, Scotland. Costa Rica, South America, the Solomons, the Hawaiian and Philippine Islands and Alaska, it was no great surprise to learn that an alumnus is now serving as quartermaster in charge of a depot in Iran. To the best of our knowledge, 2nd Lt. Robert C. Howard, BA '40, is the only alumnus now stationed in erstwhile Persia. Graduated with high distinction, Corp. William A. Boehroke, BS(Bus) '38, was one of two men in the Army Finance School at Wake Forest, N. C, believed to have set a national record by scoring 161 out of a possible 163 points in the standard Army intelligence test. While not all the stories can be told at this time, some of the activities of the alumni make interesting news. Lt. Com. William M. Connelly, LLB '11, is now a judge advocate general; Capt. Vincent G. Hart, LLB '16, has been appointed trial judge advocate at Fort Jay; Lt. (sg) Edward M. Lausted, Dip (Bus) '36, acts as supply man for battleships at an eastern naval base; Capt. Frederick J. Holl, BS '22, is commanding officer of a training school in the middle west; Lt. Col. George E. Leone, MD '29, is studying to be a flight surgeon; Maj. Edward G. Healy, MD '39, has served aboard troop transports on both the Atlantic and the Pacific and has in Australia and New Zealand; Maj. Joseph R. Dolce, MD '31, is chief of surgical services with a station hospital in Australia; Lt. (jg) Robert B. Rope, Jr., BS (Bus) '31, is taking a sub-chasing training course; Ensign John W. Pullen, BA '41, is in charge of a mine sweeper, a boat whose outfitting he supervised and of which he is now the captain; D. Bruce Falkey, Soc '40, MSS '41, is in charge of all Red Cross activities at an important overseas military base; and First Lt. William H. Hepp, LLB '39, has been battery executive officer and division defense counsel in courts-martial for his unit in the Hawaiian Islands. HERO RETURNS TO CAMPUS Capt. Norman R. Nickerson, Edß '39, commander of a unit of paratroopers and veteran of "Bloody Hill" on Guadalcanal, recently visited his Alma Mater while home on sick leave and addressed a convocation of students and faculty in Hayes Hal 1. The assemblage paid him welldeserved tribute by rising as a body and applauding enthusiastically when he was introduced. Capt. Nickerson was the first man to land on Gavutu, the first island in the Solomons to fly the American flag. Landing under fire on Aug. 7, 1942, his outfit took over the island completely, then helped take Tanambogo and other islands. The Lunga Ridge or "Bloody Hill" engagement on Sept. 13 and 14 resulted in the saving of Henderson Field. The next day his unit found "about 600 dead Japs piled up at the foot of the hill" on which they had been stationed. Wounded in the Solomons action, Capt. Nickerson spent about four months in various hospitals and is now on sick leave, soon to be hospitalized for further treatment. An enthusiastic Marine, Capt. Nickerson said that Marines' "peace time training is more than an adequate preparation for fighting and beating any enemy of equal strength." WAR CASUALTY, WOUNDED AND MISSING Corp. Edwin C Booth, BS (Phar) '41, a technician with an army station hospital, died of meningitis three days after his unit's arrival in the African area. He was the son of Edwin J. Booth, PhG '14.

Nuwer, BS (Bus) 41, have both been reported as missing. Lt. Browning, navigator on the new Flying Fortress "FDR," had recently received an air medal for "exceptionally meritorious achievement," and had participated in a successful bombing raid over Rouen, France. Lt. Nuwer, a Marine fighter pilot, had been based on Guadalcanal. First Lt. LaMoyne C. Bleich, MD '39, is the only alumnus thus far reported to be held as a prisoner of war by the Japanese.

Norton Closed to Students Chancellor Capen in his message to the student body informing them of Norton Hall's closing, said: "Naturally the Council regrets the necessity of depriving the student body of the center of social life of the campus. I am sure, however, that the students will be glad to make this sacrifice in the interest of the training plans of the armed forces.' New recreation quarters have been established on the second floor of Edmund Hayes Hall and include a large lounge, a dining room seating 80 persons, rooms for organization sessions and studies and game tables and paraphernalia.

James Newton, a Buffalonian, has been appointed as assistant professor of education to succeed Lawrence Pape, who Although only two months have elapsed since the mailing of the first "43 reminders to Senior Memorial pledgors, more than S4OO has already been received from those graduates interested in fulfilling the pledges they made at commencement time. A surprising amount has come from men in service who give as well as pass the ammunition. One of the servicemen's contributions was enclosed with a note which read in part as follows: "I received a letter reminding me that the time had arrived for me to make my first payment to the Alumni Fund. I still have a dollar bill on me so I thought I would put it 'o use. Enclosed you will find one dollar in Here's wishcash to put me up to date. ing you 1009£ success with the rest of my classmates." An unusually good return has also come from alumni who made "oversize" pledges of from S2 to S5 a year. One unique payment was made by an alumnus who said in a note to his fund agent that his check included an extra dollar, "for interest." The sentiments of many who have allowed some time to elapse before heeding their reminders are contained in notes similar to the following: "I am very much ashamed that this matter was not attended to long ago. I may seem to be a very ungrateful Alumnus where financial matters are concerned but believe me I can never thank the Alma Mater for what she has done for me.—Yours for better relations m future causes." If you have put off making your payment, why not dig down and send it to the Alumni Office, Crosby Hall. Do it noic, while you remember. has entered the Navy.

COMMISSIONER STODDARD, DR. THORN AND CHANCELLOR CAPEN In recognition of his "eminent services in the alleviation of human suffering, the Council of the University of Buffalo last month awarded the Chancellor's Medal to George Widmer Thorn, MD "29, "physiologist, chemist, physician, acknowledged leader in the young science of endocrinology, master of both the art and the science of medicine.' The presentation of the medil was one of the traditional features of the forty-third annual mid-year convocation exercises held on Feb. 22 at Kieinhans Music Hall. The tall, blond, unassuming native Butfalonian at present holds what is commonly regarded as the most distinguished chair of medicine in this country, the Hersey professorship of the theory and practice of physic in the Harvard Medical School. He is also surgeon-in-chief at the Peter Bent Brigham Hospital in Boston. Now 37 years old, he is the youngest to hold the Hersey chair even as he is the youngest to receive this accolade, the university's only award. He is the third graduate of the university to be thus honored, Chauncey J. Hamlin, LLB 05, and John Lord O'Brian, LLB '98, having received the medal in 1931 and in 1940 respectively. The Chancellor's Medal, it will be remembered, was established in the will of the late Chancellor Charles P. Norton "to personify civic patriotism and vivify public service in the eyes of the citizens of Buffalo." " Earns Spurs in Field of Endocrinology After graduation. Dr. Thorn became instructor in medicine and physiology at the Medical school and was associated for five years with Dr. Frank A. Hartman in the experiments on the adrenal gland that led the discovery of cortin. remedy for Addidisease. Awarded a Rockefeller Foundation fellowship in 1934 as a result of his experiments here, he pursued further studies in metabolic and endocrine diseases at Harvard, Ohio State and Johns Hopkins, in 1937 joining the staffs of the Johns Hopkins Medical School and Hospital. Centering his most important studies about the adrenal gland, he was the first to use a special synthetic hormone in the treatment of Addison's disease. He also devised a method of administering this hormone by implanting it in pellets beneath the skin, the chemical substance spreading from there through the body to supply the function of deficient adrenal glands. His work has resulted in a decrease in the mortalityl rate of this disease from over eighty to less than fifteen per cent. The Chancellor also announced that Dr. Thorn is at present engaged in a series of confidential researches for the armed forces bearing on certain physiological problems of high altitude flyto son's ing. In 1939 Dr. Thorn won the highest recognition which can be attained by a medical scientist in America, the gold medal of the American Medical Association, awarded for his original contributions to the treatment of Addison's disease. In his presentation address, Chancellor Capen said that those who were once Dr. Thorn's colleagues cherish his honors "all the more because he has worn them with such unassuming simplicity, and because they are to him an inconsequential byproduct of a beneficent activity to which he is single-mindedly devoted." 70 Degrees and Certificates Conferred The following were awarded at the exbachelor of arts, 21; ercises: degrees — "The Weapons of Education" Dr. George D. Stoddard, new commissioner of education and president of the University of the State of New York, was the principal speaker at the convocation. Asserting that "education, from the cradle up, is a dangerous weapon," Dr. Stoddard stated that to keep "our own thinking straight is to sharpen our best weapon cf defense and attack." He also counseled veterans-of-the-future to discuss and to study the kind of world they are willing to fight for and to take a vital part in its final emergence. SIGNAL CORPS CLASS GRADUATES On Feb. 19 certificates were presented to the 67 enlisted men in the university's ficJ class in the Army Signal Corps radio technician couise at a dinner held at the Hotel Markeen. Dean Lewis A. Froman, director of the course, presented the certificates to these enlistees, the 31 non-enlisted students who completed the course at this time receiving theirs by mail. One of the speakers at the dinner was Lt. Robert E. Hayes, who has been detached from the New York headquarters of the Signal Corps to act as liaison officer in the technician course. This class is the first in a number which eventually will prepare hundreds of young men for this branch of service. Those who enroll meet for three evenings a week during the 8 months, thus enabling them to work at their jobs by day and prepare at night for specialized Army service. Six alumni were among the graduates, four of them being enlisted men. They are: enlisted men—Floyd Bimber, Jr., BS (Bus) "42, LLB '43, M. Joseph Lamm, Soc '40, John F. McGarl, BA '39, and Ira J. Melzer, BS (Bus) "42; non-enlisted personnel Clara J. McGibe, BS (Bus) '31, Edß '40, and Eugene A. Sydoriak, BS (Bus) '38.

PLEASE NOTIFY US OF CHANGE OF ADDRESS Alumni News Brevities Schoellkopf Trust Fund Last month the university received a gift consisting entirely of securities with a present market value of $348,248.75 as a result of a trust agreement made by the late Jacob F. Schoellkopf. Mr. Schoellkopf, long a friend of the university and a member of the council from 1920 to 1938, died last Sept. 9. His trust indenture, oi deed of gift, provided that the income be reserved for him until his death when it was to pass to the university free and clear from any restrictions, thereby terminating the trust. Under the terms of the agreement, the university is asked to set up the Jacob F. Schoellkopf Trust and to "use the principal of and the net income from such fund, or substantially all thereof, for such special purpose or purposes as the governing body of the university may determine will be for the best interests of the university and represent a permanent memorial to the grantor and his family." Mr. Schoellkopf was chairman and president of Schoellkopf, Hutton and Pomeroy and previously had been chairman of the Niagara Falls Power Company. He and Mrs. Schoellkopf gave $50,000 to the university in 1920 and again in 1926. In 1929, he and 21 other members of the Schoellkopf family gave a joint gift to the university of securities of the then market value of 5i,000,000. Commenting on the benefaction. Chancellor Samuel P. Capen said: "The magnificent gift of Mr. Jacob F. Schoellkopf adds one more to a long series of generous contributions made by him and members of his family. The university and the community will benefit from this memorial gift throughout an indefinite future. The fact that Mr. Schoellkopf placed no restrictions on the purposes for which the income of the fund may be spent enables the university to apply it wherever it may be of the greatest service."

ALUMNAE February first meeting of the alumnae, two speakers brought the war home to their listeners with vividness of detail their keynote. Lt. Madeleine Murphy, WAAC, of the Buffalo recruiting office, described the opportunities open to At the women in army service and discussed the types of activities in which these women engage, from the time of their application to their final assignment. She was followed by Dr. Nathaniel F. Cantor, LLB '29, whose thoughts on "Mental Hygiene and the War" offered suggestions for adjusting to the tensions and anxieties resulting from a sense of insecurity and restlessness. He stated that one way to overcome the "gnawing sense of insecurity" was to nurture a deep conviction of the fundamental soundness of the democratic way of life, which, to him, consists essentially "of an unshakable belief in the dignity of every human being and his right to be different." The next meeting of the group will be held on March 15 at the Albright Art Gallery. Miss Ann Shepard will address the group. Friday. January 22, at the Harvard Club in New York City. James McC. Mitchell, '97, newly-elected president of the State association, Frank C. Moore, 21, State comptroller, and Judge Charles S. Desmond, '20, of the New York Court of Appeals, were guests of honor.

He was assisted by former Attorney General Carl Sherman, '10, who handled the New York arrangements, and by Edward H. Lamb, '21, of Rochester. One of the speakers was the acting dean of the law school, Philip Halpern. A telegraphic greeting was sent to Dean Mark DeW. Howe, who was granted leave to enter the army's Military Government School. Among the six non-graduates and thirtythree alumni who were present at the meeting were two women, Hildegarde Poppenberg Redding, '25, and Helen Stankiewicz Zand, '23. In view of the unusual success of this first venture, it is planned to hold similar meetings at future annual conventions. ciation on BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION PHARMACY ALUMNAE Reports from the business alumni group indicate that returns for the scholarship fund have been fairly good to date.

Up to the first World War this was the only important institutional contribution that they made. Colleges were apparently thought to be luxuries which could safely be dispensed with in war time. But by 1914 war itself had undergone a profound change. The first World War was a war not of armies alone, but of peoples. Each belligerent's full resources of manpower and productive capacity were drawn upon. Moreover, by 1914 war had become an intellectual pursuit. Armies needed large numbers of men of intelligence, technicians and experts of many kinds. And back of the armies still greater numbers of specialists were needed; not to carry on business as usual but to design and produce engines of destruction; to organize the transformation of civilian life which war demanded; to conserve, direct and operate the thousand and one services essential to effective military effort. In a peoples' war two types of agencies proved to be as necessary to success as the armies themselves: the agencies supplying equipment and transportation, and the agencies for training specialists. The Germans' war plans included the appropriate organization of the whole population to maintain the production of both military supplies and skills and provided for the assignment of the best brains of the country to tasks requiring special intellectual competence. The British failure to deal with this issue had especially tragic consequences. In the first year of the war Britain allowed its universities and other training agencies to be decimated. By 1916 thousands of irreplaceable scientists, engineers and other specialists had met death in the trenches as privates and junior officers of the line. On America's entry, military and scientific missions from the Allies visited Washington and solemnly warned us not to make the same error. They told us that at all costs we must keep the universities and technical schools in full operation; at all costs we must use our experts where their services counted for most. During the first year of America's participation no effective steps were taken to profit by the experience of the Allies. Ultimately the United States devised more thorough-going means for the classification and utilization of its human resources than did any of the Allies. But it bungled the business of protecting and developing the agencies of training. It was sheer good luck for the Uniccd States that the war ended before the shortage of hiphly trained experts became disastrously acute. The inference from the foregoing is that universities are indispensable to the successful conduct of total war. They are absolutely indispensable as instruments for training engineers, physicists, chemists, bacteriologists, meteorologists, physicians, dentists, accountants, statisticians, personnel managers, linguists and scores of other specialists. Universities arc indispensable also as centers of research and as reservoirs of research talent. Competent investigators are to be found and they have been sought by our government chiefly in the universities from among the faculties and advanced students. And civilian life goes on. Universities cannot abrogate their peace time responsibilities and devote all their resources to preparing specialists for direct participation in war, because out of the universities and colleges comes the major part of the trained intelligence that is essential for the operation of the basic services of production and distribution on which our civilization rests. Instead of being reduced by deliberately adopted government policies, their productive capacity should be doubled. At the outset of the present war the British government took steps to prevent the raiding of university staffs and student bodies by either the military or the civilian services. Essential teachers were withheld from military service. Joint boards representing the armed forces and the institutions were set up in each university to pass on the recruitment or deferment of students. University courses have been accelerated and in some cases abbreviated, and special short courses in technical subjects have been introduced. Enrollments in British universities have declined about twentyhve per cent; but in view of the desperate need of Britain for active defenders, it is an extraordinary achievement to have preserved the higher schools with only this degree of impairment: The Canadian policies by somewhat different means have achieved the same ends; and thus far without anything like as serious a loss in student enrollment. If it were clear that colleges and universities could safely be suspended or that their suspension would lead to an earlier victory of our arms, few college officers or trustees would raise any objection to — — governmental acts tending to undermine the colleges or even to close them. But the reverse is clear. Colleges and universities are essential war industries. Their serious impairment promises certain national disaster if the war should last as long as three years. In so far as the government's policies toward higher education reveal any opinion held in common by the several branches, the opinion is this. Higher education in the liberal arts is of no usefulness in the conduct of a war. In my judgment this position ignores both the basic tradition of America and the larger aims of the United Nations in the war. Despite all the changes in and expansions of the college curriculum during the last two generations, the American collegeis still devoted to the identification and study of values, especially moral and spiritual values. This is what is meant by liberal education. If there ever was a time when the world needed education conceived and conducted in the liberal spirit, that time is now. The so-called humanities are the repositories of the moral and aesthetic values which the Western World has been distilling out of human experience since the rise of Athenian civilization. They represent the complete antithesis of the National-Sozialistische Weltanschauung. These are our real home fires. How are they to be kept burning if not in and by the colleges? Teachers of the humanities may feel that since their work makes no direct contribution to the manufacture of munitions or the training of specialists for the services, it is now of slight importance. They are abysmally mistaken. For the teachers of the humanities, if they do their job well, are defending the essential America, which is invisible. Theirs primarily is the task of leading young people to the insights and convictions which those must have who will mold the public opinion on which alone a just and durable peace can rest. To adjourn this function of the colleges of liberal arts, or to strip these institutions to the bare bones of science and technology, would be to dilute one of the principal elements of America's strength in war as well as in peace. THE SPECIAL CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO TO THE WAR Several of the university's direct contributions to the war effort antedate the involvement of the United States in hostilities. The co-operative industrial training program inaugurated by the university in �3 ALUMNI BULLETIN 1940 was designed to prepare skilled personnel for a group of defense industries in this area. In many instances the young men in this program proved themselves so valuable after a few months of training that they were induced to take up fulltime employment. The recruitment of new students for the co-operative program in the latter part of 1941 also became increasingly difficult. With the assent of the cooperating industrialists it was therefore decided to abandon the undertaking at the end of the first sixty-four week period. Since September, 1939 the university has participated in the Civil Pilot Training Program conducted under the direction of the Civil Aeronautics Authority. During the year under review 100 students have completed the primary course and 72 the secondary course. In 1940 the federal government appropriated funds which could be distributed only to approved four-year engineering schools to establish courses in engineering subjects for the benefit of persons in defense industries. Since the University of Buffalo did not have a four-year engineering school, federal funds for the support of engineering courses in this area were instead made available to Cornell University. The University of Buffalo endeavored to co-operate in the enterprise by furnishing quarters for the conduct of these courses and by lending the services of some of its instructors. In the summer of 1941 a new federal appropriation was made which provided for subsidizing training in management and science as well as in engineering. The courses offered under this appropriation were then officially called Engineering, Science, Management and Defense Training. The United States Office of Education approved the University of Buffalo for offerings in the fields of science and industrial management. Between September, 1941 and July, 1942 the university has offered courses in Industrial Safety, Personnel Management, Industrial Supervision. Industrial Chemistry, Industrial Accounting and Cost Analysis, Geometrical Optics and Fundamentals of Radio. It has conducted classes in Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Dunkirk, Jamestown and Lockport. The federal government pays the whole cost of instruction, equipment, supplies and administration. Students pay no tuition and receive no university credit on completion of a course. In February, 1942 the Chemical Construction Corporation which had been designated to have charge of the new TNT plant being built near Lewiston, New York, requested the university to set up a special course in the chemistry of explosives for the technical and supervisory personnel of the plant. The university consented to undertake the task and on June Ist, 1942, 110 recent college graduates reported for the course of instruction. Quarters in private houses in the vicinity of the campus were obtained for them; their meals were furnished by the cafeteria of Norton hall. Immediately after the attack on the United States, December 7th, 1941, the several faculties and the administrative officers ser about the reorganization of all programs of instruction. By the elimination of the summer vacation period and the shortening of other vacations, degree courses which normally demand four academic years could be compressed into three years, or slightly less, without reducing their intellectual content. A campus Summer Sesending sion beginning June 29th and September 18th was accordingly provided. The School of Medicine decided to accelerate its program by operating throughout four quarters of equal length, and admitting new students hereafter only at the beginning of the summer quarter. The School of Law arranged to make it possible for the present second year class to graduate at the end of December, 1942. The School of Pharmacy made it possible for its present junior class to graduate in January, 1943, sophomore class in janu ary, 1944 and freshman class in June, 1944. The School of Dentistry, having operated for a number of years on an all year round basis, was the only division of the university that did not need to alter its calendar in order to provide an accelerated program. The School of Business Administration has organized two new one-year programs of study not leading to degrees, intended primarily to benefit the war industries of this region. One of these is a twelvemonth program of study for the preparation of war production supervisors. The second program is a twelve-months' intensive course designed to prepare women for secretarial and office supervisory work. During the spring of 1942 both the Navy and the Army established enlisted reserves in approved colleges and universities. The Navy's plan provides that freshmen and sophomores in good academic standing who can meet the physical qualifications may enlist in what is called V-l. At approximately the end of the second academic year they are examined to determine their ability, their aptitude and their possession of the qualities required in an officer. Those who pass then have the choice of enrolling in V-5 as aviation cadets and being sent to the Navy's training centers, or of enrolling in V-7 as candidates for training as engineering or deck officers. The members of the latter ejroup are expected to remain in college until they have completed their courses of study. Any men who fail to satisfy either the academic standards, or the Navy's standards of personal qualifications, are subject to immediate call to active duty as apprentice seamen. The provisions of tlv Army Enlisted Reserve plan are similar, except that the Army has announced that it expects to call to active duty its student reservists as soon as they arrive at draft age. Certain of those studying for important technical specialties will then be ordered to complete their course of academic training; the others are to be inducted as privates and after completing their basic training may apply for admission to an officers training school. Students of medicine and dentistry may enlist in the Medical or Dental Reserve Corps. The military service of those so enlisted is deferred until their graduation, when they pass automatically into the medical or dental service of the Army or of the Navy. When the College of Arts and Sciences adopted the tutorial plan of instruction in 1931 it abolished all fixed requirements, including that of physical education for freshman and sophomore students. Of the undergraduate divisions of the university only the School of Pharmacy has of late retained the requirement. In the spring of 1941 physical education was made compulsory for both men and women students of all classes. Beginning with the second semester of the year under review a number of new courses especially designed to prepare both civilians and members of the armed forces for war service were offered. In collaboration with the Red Cross and the mculty of the School of Nursing, courses in First Aid, Nutrition and Home Nursing and Child Care were offered to undergraduates. Courses in Navigation and Piloting, in Naval History, in Military Hygiene and Sanitation were offered especially for men undergraduates. The School of Pharmacy broadened its services to alumni and other pharmacists of this area by offering its facilities in First Aid instruction. Members of the Department of Chemistry conducted the Erie County School for Gas Defense. Members of the same department also were engaged in confidential research on a problem of military importance. Members of the faculties of all divisions participated in two series of weekly round table discussions over the radio. The first series dealt with controversial questions bearing on the internal and foreign policies of the United States. The second series was designed particularly to help high school students and graduates in determining their future careers and was entitled "After High School." The university has been alert to adapt itself to the changing posture of national affairs and to the new educational demands that are constantly being made of the institutions of higher learning by the government and by the communities in which they are located. All the faculties have committees at work constantly exploring desirable modifications of the offerings of their respective divisions and seeking new ways by which the university, within the limitations of its resources, may serve the national cause more effectively. �4 The university has made another direct contribution to the war effort which has cost it dear. It has contributed many of its ablest teachers and administrators to the government for service in research and administrative agencies or in the armed forces. In addition to those granted leave of absence for governmental service during the previous academic year, the following have been given leave during the year from July 1, 1941 to June 30. 1942: Dean Ralph C. Epstein of the School of Business Administration, Professor Norman L. Burton, Professor John D. Sumner, Associate Professor Carleton F. Scofield, Associate Professor George W. Fiero and Assistant Professor Clyde A. Hutchison. Earl J. McGrath, Dean of Administration, was granted leave of absence during the second semester to serve as consultant to the Navy Department and later with the War Manpower Commission. Fritz Machlup, Goodyear Professor of Economics, was relieved of his teaching duties for the coming academic year to conduct a research project financed by a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation. Leaves of absence were granted to the following members of the staff serving with the armed forces: Captain Frederick J. Holl, Captain Joseph H. Frazer, Captain Roger W. Gratwick, Ensign Arthur G. Humes, Private Robert M. Boltwood, Lieutenant Commander Howard A. Dennee, M. D., Colonel Harry G. Johnson, M.D., Major John Burke, M.D., Captain M. Luther Musselman, M.D. SUBSIDIES AND GIFTS TO AID STUDENTS For students pursuing an accelerated program of study there is no longer any opportunity to work during vacation periods and count on their earnings to help finance their education. In the College of Arts and Sciences and the School of Business Administration the accelerated program is optional. In the Schools of Medi&&*, Dentistry, Pharmacy and Law the accelerated program is the only one of- fered. The university's funds for scholarships and loans are too small to cover the needs of deserving students even in normal times. The Deans of the several professional schools have feared that many able students would be obliged to drop out of these divisions for lack of means to pay tuition and other fees. In the spring of 1942, as this problem began to present itself, the W. K. Kellogg Foundation of Battle Creek, Michigan, generously came to the rescue of the Schools of Medicine, Dentistry and Nursing. It made grants, outright gifts, of $10,000.00 to the School of Medicine, $10,000.00 to the School of Dentistry and $4,000.00 to the School of Nursing to be used for scholarships and loans for the benefit of students in these divisions. UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Twice during the year under review the United States Public Health Service has approved appropriations from federal funds for scholarships to be used for students in advanced courses in the School of Nursing. The total of the appropriations made for this purpose was $4,010.00. As this report is being prepared the university has been given to understand that it will receive a portion of the federal .ippropriation of 35,000,000.00 authorized on June 30th, 1942 to provide loans to students of engineering, physics, chemistry, medicine, dentistry and pharmacy who are pursuing accelerated programs. THE ENROLLMENT AND THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE UNIVERSITY The total enrollment for the year under review was 4945. This represented a decline of 2.06 per cent from the enrollment of the preceding year. Of the total number 1786 were regular students in the full-time day divisions. The enrollment in these divisions declined 6.4 per cent. The Summer Session of 1941 recorded a loss in enrollment of 1.43 per cent over that of the preceding year. The advance in enrollment in the Millard Fillmore College was 4.58 per cent. These figures do not take into account 1331 students enrolled in the Engineering, Science, Management and Defense Training Courses described above. For these courses no university credit is given, and hence the students are not university students in the ordinary meaning of the term. Some further analysis of the enrollment figures may serve to throw light on certain of the problems of staffing and financing that the university now faces. The Schools of Law, Education, Social Work and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences deal in the main with older students, practically all of them of draft age. It was expected that the losses in these divisions would be high during the year covered by this report. To everyone's surprise the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences actually enrolled one more student in 1941-1942 than in the preceding year. The enrollment in the School of Business Administration declined approximately 15 per cent; in the School of Education, 28.72 per cent; in the School of Social Work, 28.8 per cent; and in the School of Law, 30.48 per cent. The College of Arts and Sciences once more demonstrated its essential stability, its enrollment declining only approximately 3 per cent during the year under review. It seems clear that the university is only just beginning to feel the impact of the war on its enrollment. The downward trends in the Schools of Law, Business Administration and Education and Social Work will undoubtedly be accentuated during the next academic year. The drop in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, which was expected this year, will almost certainly take place. Law schools and graduate schools throughout the United States are in the most exposed positions of all university divisions and have suffered the most serious losses. Although the drop in the number of students in our own Law school may have seemed to us catastrophic, actually our school has had a smaller percentage of loss than most of the leading law schools of the country. The shortage of physicists, chemists, meteorologists and other scientific experts can be made good in part only by continuing and increasing the output of the graduateschools. It is expected that graduate students in these lines will continue to be deferred. Since schools of education and of social work have large enrollments of women, their student bodies are not likely to decline in numbers below a certain point that may be estimated with approximate accuracy. Signs are beginning to appear that specialists in accounting, statistics and certain aspects of applied economics will soon be needed in much larger numbers, both foi service in the armed forces and for the supporting civilian activities governmental and non-governmental. It is possible that the production of these specialists will become a military necessity, in which case deferments will have to be granted to students preparing themselves for these specialties. The professional schools preparing students for the health services occupy a preferred position. Larger numbers of doctors, dentists, nurses and pharmacists are needed both in the armed services and in civil life than can now be produced by all of the country's training agencies. Our own Schools of Medicine and Dentistry have for several years been running practically at capacity. Their enrollments are expected to remain stable for the duration of the war. The enrollment of the School of Pharmacy shows a small increase, the enrollment of the School of Nursing a very substantial increase, in the year under review. In view of the decline in the general enrollment of the university already noted, and especially in view of the very uncertain prospects confronting several of its largest divisions, the preparation of the budget for the academic year 1942-1943 presented unusual difficulties. The income for the year 1941-1942 was $23,892.82 less than for the preceding year. A further decline in total income could almost certainly be counted upon. But no university officer could estimate with accuracy how much the decline would be. Those responsible for the preparation of the budget for the year 1942-1943 could feel no confidence in their estimates.

The balance sheet, Exhibit "A," shows endowment assets of 56,156,282.68; plant assets of $7,066,652.87; and operating assets of $168,441.94. On June 30, 1942 the total funds in the endowment account were 56.156.282.68, as shown in Exhibit "A." On June 30, 1941 the total funds were 36,081,170.21. The net increase for the year, therefore, in endowment funds was $75,112.47. Schedule "A-l" is an exhibit nf the special purpose funds of the university, which, at June 30, 1942, totalled $4,245,224.16. an increase of $62,434.31 over the preceding year. Exhibit "B" is an analysis of plant assets of the university at the close of the fiscal year on June 30, 1942. The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1941 was $7,044,735.13. The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1942 was 37,066,599.24. The increase during the year covered by this report, therefore, was $21,864.11. Fortunately the physical plant of the university has been kept in excellent condition so that through these critical days a minimum of upkeep and repair will be necessary. The total operating income for the year was $1,076,286.99; the total operating disbursements were $1,018,183.23. The year, therefore, closed with an apparent net surplus of $58,103.76. Of this amount, $44,643.96 was carried over from surpluses of preceding years so that the true earned surplus for the year covered by this report was $13,459.80.

It is noted that fees received from students during the year covered by this report were $41,516.38 less than during the year 1940-41, a decline of 4.76 per cent. This decline was last year compensated for in part by two principal factors: first, a decrease of $24,299.75 in salaries of instruction, largely because of the departure of members of the faculty on leave with the armed services or in government bureaus or research work; second, an increase in the amount of income from endowment. Only one of these two compensating items is likely to continue, namely, the calling of members of the faculty to government service. Income from endowment is not likely to increase unless endowment funds substantially increase because bonds of the character purchased for university accounts are today yielding a lower return on the investment than they have at any time in the last forty years. Of the total expenses of the university for the year ended of instruction; 60.6 June 30, 1942, 53.9 per cent was for salaries per cent was for salaries of instruction, plus supplies used in instruction and operation and maintenance of libraries. United States, state and municipal government bonds, purchased by the university, yielded an average income of 3.47 per cent cent; on the actual investment; foreign government bonds, 4.59 per railroad bonds, 4.51 per cent; public utility bonds, 4.86 per cent; industrial bonds, 5.05 per cent; miscellaneous bonds, all gifts, 1.97 per cent; stocks, 4.44 per cent; real estate mortgages and mortgage certificates, .9 per cent. The average yield on all stocks and bonus purchased and owned by the university, and excluding gifts, was 144 per cent for the year. On June 30, 1942 the stocks and bonds in the university portfolio which had been purchased by the university, and excluding gifts, were classified as follows on the basis of market worth: United States, state, municipal and foreign government bonds, 27.5 per cent; railroad bonds, 7.8 per cent; public utility bonds, 8.6 per cent; industrial bonds, 2.1 per cent; public utility preferred stocks, 13.7 per cent; industrial preferred stocks, 4.9 per cent; investment trust preferred stocks, 2.2 per cent; bank pr-ferred stocks, 1.4 per cent; rail common stocks, .7 per cent mblic utility common stocks, 1.8 per cent; industrial common ,:ocks, 16.8 per cent; bank capital stocks, 2.8 per cent; insurance common stocks, 6.6 per cent; and investment trust common stocks, 3.1 per cent. The list continues to be well diversified and of high quality. Gifts and bequests received during the year which ended June 30, 1942 included the following: Estate of Smith M. Flickinger for the establishment of the "Smith M. Flickinger Scholarship in Economics," 410,000; Mr. and Mrs. George F. Rand, $5,000; addition to Seymour H. Knox Foundation, $3,536.62; Estate of George T. Weed, $3,500; Frederick B. Cooley, $3,000; Mrs. Norman E. Mack, $2,000; addition to Dr. Charles Cary Memorial Fund, $1,764.55; Barmon Brothers, $1,500; Estate of Philip Kirwen, $1,453.35; George R. Feme, $1,000. Mention should be made of an important gift to the university made in the closing months of the year covered by this report, by the W. K. Kellogg Foundation of Battle Creek, Michigan. The foundation had made a study of the problem created by the accelerated educational programs as they affect the student of limited means in medical, dental and nursing schools.

The Kellogg Foundation gave to the university $24,000 to be awarded as grants or loans during the academic year 1942-45, to such students of limited means. The university has closed each of the last nine years with a small but satisfactory balance in its operating account. Unless all signs fail, June 30, 1942 closed an v epoch in this respect. The years immediately ahead are troublous and uncertain ones. Before this report reaches the hands of the members of the council, the Congress will have adopted legislation reducing the draft age to 18 years. The impact will be tremendous on every college and university in the land. While our Schools of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacy will be little affected, the effect on the College of Arts and Sciences, and the Schools of Business and Law will be exceedingly grave. The invasion of registration in those colleges can be alleviated only by such arrangements as can be made with the Army and Navy Departments for specialized training of men in the armed forces, using the educational facilities of the university. In what measure these facilities will be used by the government is wholly uncertain. At best the university maj have to face an operating deficit rather than an operating surplus for the fiscal year begun July 1, 1942. To avoid such deficit the university must rely on the contributions of its alumni and friends. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE D. CROFTS, students have Comptroller.

With great reluctance the chancellor asked the council to approve the discontinuance of two important enterprises. lcPaid Permit No. 31 I Buffalo, N. Y. a recent meeting of Alpha Omega Alpha, national honorary medical society, the following senior medical students were elected to membership: Anthony B. Constantine, BA "38, John M. Donahue, Wyllys A. Dunham, Norman Haber. BA '39, Thomas R. Humphery. Ruth F. Krauss. - The oldest of these was the Library Science Course which was organized in 1920. The enrollment in this course had fallen off sharply. It could only be continued at a substantial loss, and through the period of the war would apparently benefit only a small handful of students. The other undertaking suspended for the period of the war was the Bureau of Business and Social Research. This bureau had been operating thirteen years and had rendered useful service to the business community of the Niagara Frontier. Nevertheless, in this period of emergency it seemed to be an activity that could be suspended. For several years there has been an annual operating surplus. Since 1936 it has been necessary to appropriate a part or all of this surplus each June to balance the budget for the ensuing fiscal year. The budget adopted by the council in June, 1941 appropriated from the surplus of the year then closing $36,718.65 to balance the budget for the year 1941-1942. The actual surplus on June 30th 3 1941 was $44,-643.96. During the year under review emergencies arising in connection with the war effort made it necessary to make additional appropriations which practically wiped out this surplus. After all possible reductions in estimates had been made, the budget presented to the council for adoption to cover the operations of the year 1942-1943 appropriated 540,000.00 from the estimated surplus of the year closing June 30th, 1942, and carried a deficit in the amount of $15,295.93. If the estimated deficit, or any part of it, or a larger deficit, should be actually incurred, it is obvious that there can be no surplus in June, 1943 from which sums can be taken to balance a budget for the ensuing year.

Please send notes and news about these graduates to the Alumni Office, Crosby Hall. THE NEEDS OF THE UNIVERSITY The university needs, as it has not needed for many years, the help of its alumni and of its friends. It needs their help in order that it may continue to render indispensable services to the nation at war. With its normal sources of income impaired, the quality of these services must inevitably deteriorate, unless during the emergency receives substantial contributions. Additions to the general endowment, or the endowment of professorships, are the most useful as well as the most permanent contributions. It is to be hoped that many of the university's friends will be able, even in these times of financial stress, to make contributions to its permanent funds. It seems patent, however, that the income which may be derived from this source will not suffice for the university's urgent immediate needs. To meet these some kind of sustaining fund derived from annual contributions, large and small, is plainly required. I would urge upon the council that it make every effort during the forthcoming year to establish such a fund. Respectfully submitted, SAMUEL P. CAPEN.

The exercises, which required only 12 minutes, were the shortest in the university's 96-year history.

The general theme of this year's series is "Planning a Better World." The programs, on each of which appear three faculty participants, are heard over WBEN at 10:30 on Monday nights. In addition, Dr. Wilfred B. Kerr is giving a series of six weekly talks over WBEN on the subject, "Our British Ally." Associate Professor of History, Dr. Kerr conducts the courses offered by that department on English and Continental Affairs. University News FACULTY FLASHES Dr. John C. Adams, instructor in history and government, has been commissioned a lieutenant (jg) in the navy, to work in Naval Communications. Ernest J. Brown, professor of law recently on leave with the legal staff of the War Production Board, entered the army last month as a private. Part of a unit which established an advanced L*. S. Air Base in Libya was Capt. Roger W. Gratwick, formerly in charge of placement in the Personnel Bureau and commissioned in the air corps last spring. Dr. Edward S. Jones, director of the bureau of personnel research since 1926, has been appointed dean of students. Joseph S. Rounds, librarian-"aT the'Grosvenor Library and director of the library science program at the university, has also entered the army as a private. He has been succeeded by Dean Julian Park of the College of Arts and Sciences, who was named acting librarian. Dean Park will continue to fulfill completely his duties at the college, joining the library on a part-time basis. Acting Dean Claude E. Puffer of the School of Business Administration has been named economic advisor to the Price Division of the OPA's Buffalo office. WAR PROGRAMS The University of Buffalo has pledged its co-operation with the Army and Navy cadet program and is busily gearing its facilities to that end. The Office of War Training, with Dr. Lewis A. Froman as director, has been created to handle war courses and programs. In addition to supervising the Signal Corps training, under which 800 men are now studying part-time, the aeronautical, engineering, science and management and aviation cadet training (in which 80 men are now enrolled), this office will supervise the recently-established short wartraining courses. These courses vary in length from four to sixteen months and are designed primarily for those entering service. With a semester of approximately 4 months in length, the figures given after these new programs indicate the number of semesters needed to complete the work: Basic Training for Military Service, 3; Jun- Mitchell N.Y. Bar Head James McCormick Mitchell, LLB '9", chairman of the University council since 1937, will be the next president of the New York State Bar Association, having been chosen unanimously by the nominating committee, the election to be held at the annual meeting in January. A member of the association for 40 years MITCHELL, 97 and vice president from this district in 1929, Mr. Mitchell is the seventh Buffalonian in the organization's 67-year history to be selected for this position, which is considered next in prestige to the presidency of the American Bar Association. Morey C. Bartholomew, LLB '09, vicepresident from the Eighth Judicial District for six years, has been nominated to the executive committee. ■ ior Accountants, 2; Junior Statisticians, 2; Analytical Chemists, 3; Junior Chemical Technologists, 4; Secretarial Training, 2 or 3; Junior Technical Biologists, 3; Junior Physicists, 3; and Pre-Flight Training, 1. These new courses, which have received the approval of representatives of the military services, have the additional advantage that the work done in them may be applied at some later time towards a degree in the same field. In keeping with its policy of trying to make it possible for young men to obtain a complete college education under an accelerated" plan for a short specific college program before they reach draft age, the university will take in a new class of freshmen at the beginning of the second semester and will also admit superior students whose high-school programs will not be completed until June. The latter plan is the result of the success of an experiment tried last year, when five boys from the top fifth of their high school classes entered the university and achieved "B" averages in their courses. They easily completed the required Regents examinations in June without attending their final high schtKil term. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

On the committee appointed by the Council's Committee on General Administration to plan the program were council, alumni, faculty and student members. James McC. Mitchell, LLB '97, President of the Council, presided over the exercises, which were broadcast in part. The entire audience rose spontaneously and applauded vigorously in sincere tribute to Dr. Capen as he arose to acknowledge modestly and graciously the glowing praises v.'hich had been heaped upon him. In his own humble manner, Dr. Capen said he acted as "official spokesman" for the university family of alumni, faculty, students and friends in accepting the testimonials of guest speaker Dr. Harold W. Dodds, President of Princeton University; of John Lord O'Brian, LLB "98, now general counsel of the War Production Board; of New York State Commissioner of Education George D. Stoddard; of the Arts Collegefaculty and of other colleagues and well-wishers. Throughout his remarks, Dr. Open stressed the importance of the role played by its many benefactors and friends in the development of the university, describing presidents and chancellors of educational institutions as "vastly overrated functionaries." In lauding the Chancellor, Dr. Dodds said, "I am not addicted to superlatives but I can say without any mental reservation that I know of no one more aware of the complex elements which, when fused, comprise a university, or more able to combine them effectively in the service of Buffalo, than Dr. Capen." Discussing the role of universities in the war, Dr. Dodds remarked that they "will find themselves by losing themselves in the war effort." In reference to changes being made in college curricula, he stated that the "social cost of losing the war would far transcend the losses involved in the temporary suspension of normal college programs." His opinions on this subject were echoed by Dr. Capen who reminded the gathering that with the students, faculty and council, "the war comes first." Game Draws Alumni Fans The performance of all the Bulls, including the 1500-pound, prize-winning mascot, provided thrills aplenty for the 4672 spectators in the Homecoming Day crowd at the Civic Stadium. The enthusiastic fans cheered lustily and gamely, unwilling to concede defeat until the last whistle blew with our team on the losing end of a 27-14 score. Finishing the game with a plucky last-quarter drive, the Bulls had every loyal rooter cheering madly as they fought not only a superior Carnegie Tech force but also that intangible feeling of awe created by the presence of an unusually large University of Buffalo cheering section in the vast stadium. Altogether, the "bigness" of it all would have been sufficient to stampede the stoutest of hearts but our team acquitted itself nobly in this, its first Civic Stadium fiame. A special feature of the day was the spectacle of the 85-piece Carnegie Tech Kiltie Band, whose precise, perfectly marshalled drills drew hearty and well-deserved app'ause from the stands. Those who are not in a position to follow the Buffalo team's record will be pleased SAMUEL PAUL CAPEN After the formal exercises, a reception was held in the lounging rooms of Norton hall which was richly decorated for the occasion and fairly exuded hospitality.

More recently, the alumnae sponsored its increasingly successful annual tea for outstanding high school seniors. Norton's private dining rooms bulged with the 100-odd alumnae, campus students and high school girls. Those who attended were heartened by this lively interest taken in the university and by the responsiveness of these girls to ideas about women's role in education, home and the war. In lieu of a theater party this year, the alumnae are hoping to build up their scholarship fund by setting aside part of the dues collected. On December 8, the alumnae will hear a speaker from the Civilian Defense Council. The meeting will be held at 8:15 P. M. at the College Club, 264 Summer Street. BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION Recently a mailing went out to all graduates in this division, appealing for contributions to the association's athletic scholarship fund. Marshall K. Stoll, BS (Ed) '36, chairman of the fund committee, reports that returns have been good but not complete. SOCIAL WORK At the time of the State Conference on Social Work held at Syracuse, New York, the School of Social Work Alumni met for the first meeting of the new season.

A few of the others whose splendid playing helped to earn wins in the first two games are: guard Sid Snyder, second game captain, end Dom Grossi, first game captain, end Art Whieldon, center Bud Houser and backs Tom Bowers, Carl Nicosia, Billßudick and Lome Weeks. The Carnegie Tech game on October 24 has been chosen by alumni as the Homecoming Day game. The contest will be staged at the Civic Stadium and is expected to attract a record-breaking crowd. In addition to the main attraction of the game itself, a special feature of the day's festivities will be the performances of the 85-piece Carnegie Tech Kiltie Band whose members chose Buffalo as the one town they would visit with the football team this year. Students are in charge of the parade which will be held in the morning in the downtown area. To conform to a recent War Council edict, the game will be played beginning at 1 P. M.

Bartholomew, LLB '09, vice-president of the General Alumni Board in charge of alumni funds, has announced that 197 members of the 1942 classes have joined the Senior Memorial Pledge plan. This figure represents 7991" of the seniors whose cooperation was solicited. While the original plan called for an annual gift of Si for the five years following graduation, the recent graduates obviously realized the greater needs of the university at the present time and followed the example of some of their predecessors by p'edging amounts ranging from SI to S5, one for "Sl-$10," depending on the pledgor's income. As a result, with 76 pledges for more than one dollar per annum, the total amount pledged by the group for each year is $384, the highest total thus far. If five classes each pledged an equal amount, the pledge per year would be $1920, or interest on a capital of $76,800 invested at the rate of 21/2%. Not only did the 1942 classes indicate that their gift was to be unrestricted as to purpose, the most desirable type of gift for a private institution like ours, but they also decided to give the $145.43 representing the proceeds of their Commencement Ball and Rose Day sale to this same fund.

The November issue is expected to contain news of their activities. Somers, assistant professor of and Isaac Soyer, lecturer in art. CONVERTED GAME ROOM IN MIUTARY GUISE THE UNIVERSITY AND THE WAR must make our time tell; and if "We we do, we are serving the nation right here." Thus spake Chancellor Samuel P. Capen in his address to the students at the opening convocation of the university's 97th year. Dr. Capen appealed to them to devote every effort toward helping the country win the war, stressing the importance of the work being done by those preparing to be specialists. Students in the accelerated programs, whose registration in the summer session helped that division set an all-time record of 758 (in the first period), are now enrolled in the first regular session in which acceleration plays an important role. This is but one facet of the university's war time effort. One of the most revolutionary innovations, the housing of army and navy air cadets on campus, has imparted a military aspect to the hitherto strictly civilian atmosphere. The entire third floor of Norton Hall, Student Union building, was converted this summer into a barracks which accommodated 50 air students. There are now 40 navy and 20 army air cadets housed in the gymnasium. These men in uniform, who obtain their meals at Norton cafeteria, take part of their civil-pilot training at the university. Additional classes in radio fundamentals were begun this summer for enlisted Signal Corps Reservists, who take 9 hours of freetuition evening classes per week. They are entitled to deferment for the 8 months of the course, provided they successfully maintain the required standard of work. The university has been permitted to recommend more than 300 campus students for the army's enlisted reserve. After receiving pre-induction training in college, the students are eligible for specialized service and officer training in the army. Both men and women students are eligible to participate in the War Production Student Program which permits full-time undergraduates with satisfactory academic standing to continue their regular programs of study and also to work an average of about 24 hours a week in a war industry. The plan is calculated to aid in providing sorely needed manpower for Buffalo's war industries. Millard Fillmore College has announced that its offerings would include war production training courses for women as well as for men. New courses for instructors in gas defense were begun last month. In addition, a four-year course in X-Ray technology leading to the BA degree was established last June to meet the increased demand for technicians in this field. When it is remembered that the above are in addition to the war-time programs described in previous issues of the Bulletin, it is apparent that the contribution of the university to the nation's all-out effort is a very substantial one. APPOINTMENTS AND PROMOTIONS While space does not permit the listing of all the many changes and new appointments, particularly in the Medical school faculty, some of both are given below.

B. Faces Crisis-Alumni Pledge Support The University of Buffalo faces a crisis. The war emergency is seriously affecting its financial status and placing it in a desperate position, where support from alumni and friends is absolutely essential. At the pre-commencement meeting or the University council, Chancellor Samuel P. Capen stated: "The University of Buffalo, in common with most endowed colleges and universities in the United States, is confronted with a serious financial strain as a result of the war emergency. Through the operations of the Selective Service Act, the university has suffered a loss in student enrollment, with a consequent loss in income from students, and anticipates a greater loss in the immediate future. The income from the university's invested funds also has declined and is likely to fall off still further. Moreover, the educational programs instituted by the university to meet wartime conditions have added a considerable financial burden." Council Economizes The first step taken to meet the crisis was the council's adoption of a budget for 1942-1943 which embodies strict economies and in which expenses have been "whittled to the bone." The budget can be balanced, however, only by contributions from loyal alumni and friends. In line with the policy of strict retrenchment, the university has suspended the Bureau of Business and Social Research and the Library Science program. (A few courses in library science will be provided to enable students already enrolled to complete their degree requirements, but no new students will be accepted until further notice.) General Alumni Board Acts The next step in meeting the emergency was taken by the General Alumni Board which met on the eve of commencement. Morey C. Bartholomew, LLB '09, chairman of the Committee on Funds, cited the facts concerning the university's financial crisis and emphasized that an institution which depends on student fees for 80% of its income "faces stark realities due to the demands of the Selective Service on the youth of our area." He also pointed out that "a university cannot cut its expenses like an ordinary mercantile institution," supplies has risen with the general rise of prices makes the position of the university very grave indeed. It is not a situation peculiar to our own institution. A great majority of endowed colleges and universities are finding it impossible to prepare balanced budgets for the coming academic year. It therefore is obvious that friends of higher education must be informed of the dire needs to be met and called upon to take the responsibility of helping to maintain the quality of these institutions. "Annual Giving" Recommended After outlining the urgent necessity for the making of such appeals, Mr. Bartholomew made the concrete proposal that the appeals be made for annual gifts and not primarily fui large cndov/ments. He pointed out that many of the larger colleges and universities have had loyalty or "recurringgift" funds in existence for some time, one for fifty-two years, and that the recipients of the funds were able to depend on these gifts as a sizable source of income each year. While large outright gifts are needed now more than ever, it was considered more practical for the alumni to establish an organization designed to appeal annually for funds. It is felt, too, that such appeals cannot but meet with willing responses from those alumni who realize the responsibility which is theirs and who wish to demonstrate their loyalty to the institution which provided them with such unusual benefits at less than cost.

The added fact that the cost of necessary The members of the board unanimously adopted a resolution accepting the plan in principle and authorizing the committee to proceed with the organization. James McC. Mitchell, LLB '97, chairman of the University council, heartily endorsed the proposal on behalf of the council. Both Dr. Capen and Mrs. Norman P. Clement, the only non-alumni at the meeting, stressed that gifts to the university were really direct contributions to the nation's war effort, inasmuch as the university is doing much more than its share to assist in every possible way by preparing trained personnel in technical and other fields, by giving freely of its faculty and staff despite the resulting sacrifices and hardships, by (Continued on page 2) �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 2 UNIVERSITY CRISIS (Continued from page 1) expanding its offerings to meet specific wartime needs, and by doing all in its power to help prepare for the post-war world as well. Senior Memorial Pledge Mr. Bartholomew included in his remarks a mention of certain statistics connected with the Senior Memorial Pledge Plan, which he has been supervising as chairman on funds. The amount collected during the first five months of the current year was S4OO, a total equivalent to interest at 4.36% (the average earned last year on university investments) on 59,174.31- This fact was used to support his argument in favor of the annual gift as opposed to the endowment campaign, since the total returns were the result mainly of Sl-a-year gifts from the classes who have joined the plan and still have unfinished pledges. Heartening, too, is the fact that the 1942 seniors joined so enthusiastically that by May 31, 195 of 250 seniors, or 78%, had signed pledges for a total yearly amount of $379, many of them obviously pledging more than one dollar. Until this year, the highest amount pledged was 5285, subscribed by the 276 seniors who joined the plan in 1939. This year's class, therefore, pledged an amount equal to interest per year (at 4.36%) on a capital investment of 58,692.66. Since the pledges run for five years, if five classes each pledged the same amount, the yearly total pledged would be $1,895, equivalent to interest at the above per cent on $43,463.30, an impressive figure indeed. Other Business Transacted Retiring President James E. King, MD '96, introduced the new members of the board and called for reports from the other four vice presidents and from the alumni office secretary. After A. Bertram Lemon, PhG 13, had reported discouraging results for the Committee on Associations and Clubs, it was noted that the coming fund appeal would no doubt serve as a stimulus for club activity by providing the groups with a definite objective. Carleton P. Vernier, PhG '33, reporting for the Committee on Activities, related the history of the Home-Coming celebration and offered several important suggestions for future activities; George G. Davidson, Jr., LLB '97, reporting for the Committee on Bequests, mentioned suggestions which had been made to clients when drawing up wills but stressed the impossibility of claiming definite results in most cases even when gifts to the university were believed to be due to his committee's efforts. The report of Harry C Guess, MD '12, for the Committee on Public Relations, emphasized the means by which more publicity and better public relations might be obtained and lauded the work which had been done by Mrs. Clement, associate secretary, and Ar- ' More New Programs AnswerWar Needs Fairly bristling these days with new courses all designed to contribute greatly to the nation's war program, the university can be justly proud of the role it is playing in these days of all-out effort. At the present time, under the competent organization of Dean Lewis A. Froman, over 100 graduate chemists and chemical engineers of the Lake Ontario Ordnance Plant are being given a special course in the chemistry of explosives. The registrants in the six-week course which began on June 1 represent 34 different universities and colleges. They attend full time, five hours a day. Dean Froman, director of the summer defense-training program, has announced the addition of a new production-control course to the Science and Management Defense Training Program organized by the university under the auspices of the U. S. Office of Education. The tuition-free courses start June 15 and continue through October 2. With a minimum requirement of high school graduation and various additional requirements of college training, industrial experience, or both, these courses are for men employed and seeking employment in defense industries. Two courses are being offered by the School of Business Administration beginning with the summer session on June 29. One, a course preparing women for secretarial and office supervisory work, will be given on either a nine- or twelve-month basis as the student chooses. It is open to graduates of either academic or commercial high school curricula. On completion of the program, a certificate in secretarial and office administration will be awarded and a year's college credit will be granted which may be used immediately or at a later date should the student elect to continue in one of the regular degree programs. University courses such as English, public speaking, economics and accounting will be required in addition to work in special skill subjects. Electives may also be taken. The second new offering is a one-year war-production course to train young men as production supervisors in war industries. Seven local firms, including the two aircraft manufacturers, Bell and CurtissWright, Buffalo Arms, Hewitt Rubber, Buffalo Forge, Houde Engineering and Barcalo Manufacturing, are cooperating in the program designed to meet the coming shortage of supervisory personnel. It is open to high school graduates who will thur I. Goldberg, BA '31, acting director of publicity. All recommendations of the nominating committee, whose report was read by Judge Victor B. Wylegala, LLB '19, were elected by the board. take three sets of courses although some vocational school graduates may be able to shorten this program. The first set will consist of three months' work in economics, English, history, mathematics and public speaking. It will be followed by four months' work in business administration. The third portion will be entirely technical in nature. This month saw also the beginning of a course for physicians of Buffalo and Western New York in the treatment of poison gas victims. The course, given at the Medical school, is sponsored by the school, the Emergency Medical Service and the Erie County Medical Society. Students at the university have been advised of the establishment of the Army Enlisted Reserve Corps, in which superior students may enlist in an inactive status and continue their education. A new program for the master-of-arts degree, designed especially for prospective high-school teachers, will begin on June 29, the date of the opening of the first summer session period. The paper required in the new curriculum will be mainly a review and report of research done, the basis being graduate work in two or more related fields. District Club News LOCKPORT By winning first place in the A division Kenmore gained permanent possession of that division's trophy which it had won on two previous occasions at annual track meets held under the auspices of the Lockport Alumni club. Running, hurdling, vaulting, jumping, shot putting and discus hurling were all engaged in. The B divi- sion honors went to East Aurora. W. Alfred Brim, LLB '28, president of the Lockport group, presented cups to the winning teams. Many of the Lockport alumni as well as several members of the faculty and student athletes of the university acted as officials for the meet which once again proved to be a highly successful event. NEXT BULLETIN IN FALL This is the last issue of the Alumni Bulletin until October. No issues will be published during the summer. The next issue will be sent to Buffalo alumni and friends concurrently with the opening of the 1942-1943 academic year. �ALUMNI BULLETIN 3 Divisional News PHARMACY ALUMNAE The climax of a highly-successful year was the annual dinner held the night after commencement at the Park Lane. Ethel I. Woodward, PhG '11, acted as toastmistress for the affair. Officers who had been elected last month were installed and the group heard Dean of Women Lillias M. Macdonald discuss "The Need of Women in the Professions," stressing the importance of the role women can and must play in these days in particular. The alumnae were very happy to have Miss Mabel I. Brown and Miss Louise F. Gregory of the Pharmacy office and Dr. Margaret C. Swisher, assistant professor of chemistry, join in their festivities. SOCIAL WORK Alumni of the School of Social Work met at the "Riviera" for a luncheon meeting on Commencement Day, June 10th. President Elmer J. Tropman, BA '32, MA '35, Soc '37, presented the results of the self-survey conducted by a committee of the alumni body in an attempt to obtain critical evaluations of the school's offerings and services. Virginia Willis Russell, BA '34, Soc '39, a representative to the General Alumni Board, reported to the group concerning the meeting held the preceding evening. Her remarks concerning the fund-raising appeal shortly to be organized by the alumni were very well received. Last Milestones "78 MD—Chauncey A. Rood of Brocton, N. Y. "89 MD—Charles A.

The new alumni and, for the first time, radio listeners were granted the privilege of hearing Chancellor Samuel P. Capen deliver one of the finest and most significant baccalaureate addresses ever to be heard in the history of the university. After discussing the meaning and importance of America, the Melting Pot, the Chancellor expressed a primary concept of the American way of life in the words, ■'Ours is the supreme example of a volto untary civilization, owing next to nothing to official direction or control, nothing whatever to a stable privileged class, evolving its own leaders, forging its own ever . .. . rising standards of value." Commenting on America in the war, he stated that "Between us and the Axis the conflict is irreconcilable The end must be our absolute triumph, or no American (Ameriwould hold life worth living ca) must inevitably represent to the opponents their most formidable enemy, formidable because of its great resources, but formidable especially by reason of what it stands for. For America is the foremost exponent of those ideals for which the great masses of the Western World have been striving down through the centuries." Assembling on the picturesque moats of Kleinhans Music Hall on June 10, the graduating classes led the faculty and council in the colorful spectacle which is the annual academic procession. Dr. Henry J. Pflum pronounced the invocation. After joining in the singing of ■'America," the graduates heard Chancellor Open comment in his prefatory remarks that universities are equally concerned with science and technology and with the interpretation of "the moral and aesthetic values which are at once the flower and the driving force of our civilization ... the preservation of these values to ourselves and to the world is the very heart of the cause for which the United Nations are fighting." He went on to introduce the commencement speaker, fittingly "a representative of another of the United Nations," Dr. Robert C. Wallace, principal and vice-chancellor of Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario. Dr. Wallace pointed out that "we have learned but little in this day of strife and conflict if we have not learned some simple elemental truths about life and its values property, and wealth, and possessions and rank count for nothing. Courage and fortitude and decency and honor and a sense of the eternal are all that matter." The audience stood during the singing of the "Alma Mater."

The Summer Session, cooperating with this program, is offering a wide variety of courses including many given in previous years as well as many new courses with special significance this year. In addition, to effectuate the accelerated program adopted by the university, instead of the customary sixweek Summer Session there will be a twelve-week session, two six-week periods to be conducted, the first from June 29 to August 8, the second from August 10 to September 19. Instruction in regular courses will be given on the basis of six-, eight-, and twelve-week arrangements. It will be possibie for students to earn as many as 16 semester hours—the equivalent of a full semester of a regular year. "War" Courses Many courses in fields such as accounting, economics, education and history, to mention a few, will emphasize the applications to the present situation and will be geared to war-time needs. In addition, there are a number of new or recently introduced courses designed primarily to offer instruction in fields contributing directly to the war effort. A course in Meteorology will be given which will include a study of the phenomena of the atmosphere and the forecasting of weather. Along a similar vein is the course in which will be presented the basic principles of coastwise piloting and celestial navigation under the title, Introduction to Navigation and Piloting. United States Natal History will offer a study of our naval policy and naval wars from the American Revolution to the present time. In the field of physical fitness, there will be courses given in: Personal and Group Hygiene for Chilian Defense and for the Armed Forces; Foods and Nutrition, in which will be studied normal adequate diets and food budgeting and selection for average families; public health nursing— three courses covering principles, teaching, and field experience in this phase of nursing; and Body Conditioning (physical education for men). In the social sciences, the psychology department plans to offer Propaganda, Morale, Personality Integration m the Present Crisis matics and physics, in addition to some in typewriting and secretarial practice. Courses for teachers and school administrators are offered in the first six-week period, with a wide range available in various fields of school service. Courses in teaching art in elementary and secondary schools will be given on the campus in the art education laboratory. The Cooperative Youth Groups will offer opportunities for the observation of teaching and for demonstrations of types of activities for youth in the early years of secondary school. The Children's Cooperative Groups will be available for demonstrations of nurspry school practice. Visiting Novelist Through the courtesy of the Fenton Foundation, the Summer Session is Davis, nate in having Mr. Clyde Bnon author of The Anointed, The Great Amerilecguest as works, can Novel, and other beginturer and consultant for two weeks ning July 13. fortu- The Laboratory Aids Defense and the sociology department will give a course on the Sociology of Post-War Social Planning. Following the "Good-Neighbor" policy, a course in Spanish Conversation in Castillian and South American will be of value to the language student and future diplomat. Summer Institute A very important contribution to the war program will be the Summer Institute on Day Care of Young Children in Wartime. Since Buffalo is a vital defense area, where large numbers of women will soon be employed in war industries, it is expected that by the fall of 1942 a number of daytime Child Care Centers will have to be set up in Buffalo and surrounding communities. This institute is planned to help meet the need for women trained to take positions of responsibility in such centers. The material presented will center around practical considerations of housing, equipment, staff administration, and child care techniques, including attention to health, food, sleep, play, stories and music for children. This non-credit course is open to women with a high school education, who are between the ages of 18 and 45 years, in good physical health, and with a genuine interest in children. Other Offerings Also contributing to the war effort are courses in chemistry, engineering, mathe- Programs Available High school graduates intending to take the university's accelerated program and thus shorten the length of time needed to complete their regular course may enter the university in the summer period, for which registration is now open. They will find special arrangements to introduce them to college life. The divisions operating through the Summer Session are arts and sciences, library science, business administration, education, nursing and social work. The Schools of Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy and Law are operating on accelerated schedules and have summer terms of their own. Evening instruction will be available in some fields through courses offered by Millard Fillmore College. The recently announced cooperative program of the university, through its School of Education, and the School of Fine Arts of the Buffalo Fine Arts Academy has been to include summer instruction. Under the new arrangement, courses in art and the history of art will be offered hereafter in the studios of the art school, while courses in art education, general courses in education and related general studies to complete degree programs will be given on the campus. extended �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Wallace to be Speaker DR.

Schafer, BA '38, MA '40, has reported to Annapolis for training as a naval ensign, having completed his work early for the Ph.D. degree which he is receiving from the University of Chicago. Rumor has it that some of the men in the group to which former private and now Tech. Sgt. Edwin M. Heary, BS (Bus) '38, belongs are stationed in Madeline Carroll's back yard in Beverly Hills, Calif. It seems, too, that there has been some discussion as to the reason for setting up a machine gun there, a threat which may be sufficiently dire for a certain comedian and the Axis. Field Director Jennings B. Bacon, Soc '41, volunteered some time ago for overseas service with the American Red Cross. Among outposts at which our alumni are stationed are Jamaica, British West Indies, and Dutch Guiana. At the former is First Lt. Joseph W. Puerner, BA '33; at the latter is Capt. Frank T.

The thirty-six year old alumnus and former member of the faculty succeeds the late Dr. Soma Weiss, a distinguished medical authority. Dr. Thorn is at present associate professor of medicine and director of the metabolism department at Johns Hopkins University and is also associated with the Johns Hopkins Hospital. Dr. Thorn has achieved wide recognition in the field of endocrinology. It will be recalled that his work with Dr. Frank A. Hartman in the latter's experiments on the adrenal gland resulted in his receiving a Rockefeller foundation fellowship in 1934. Three years ago, having gone to Johns Hopkins in 1937, he was one of four physicians of that university to whom went recognition for their work in the treatment of Addison's disease in the form of the American Medical Association gold medal for original investigation. The treatment involved the implantation of "seeds"—pellets containing certain chemical substances beneath the skin to assume the function of the adrenal - — glands. Dr. Thorn was a major in Base Hospital 18 at Johns Hopkins but was released so that he might accept the Harvard position. A fellow of the American College of Physicians, Dr. Thorn is a member of the Society for Clinical Investigation, the Association for the Study of Internal Secretions, and Alpha Omega Alpha, honorary medical fraternity.

His remarks, concluding with the comment that the University of Buffalo compares favorably with other institutions of its size in contributing to the nation's war effort, were very well received by the alumnae who thus heard at first-hand of some of the university's recent undertakings and also of her need of support from her daughters and Kathryn G.

Plans have not been completed as yet but the officers, led by Vice-President Robert A. Bollman, Dip '29, forecast an intensive and successful drive to make this dinner meeting a "bang-up" affair. First notices have already been sent to local members. MEDICINE Had more of the junior students who were on vacation at the time been able to attend, the final registration for the Eighth Annual Clinical Day of the Medical Alumni association would have been considerably higher than the actual 570.

LOCKWOOD AWARDED CHANCELLOR'S MEDAL 65 Are Graduated by University at Mid-Year Commencement THOMAS BROWN LOCKWOOD Paying tribute to a Buffalonian whose contributions "have immeasurably enriched the cultural life of the community and have dignified 'Buffalo in the eyes of the world,' " the university awarded the Chancellors Medal to Thomas Brown Lockwood, donor of the magnificent Lockwood Memorial Library and a collection of rare books and manuscripts which is one of the foremost in the United States. The award was one of the highlights of the forty-second annual mid-year convocation exercises held on Feb. 23 and again broadcast over station WEBR. Mr. Lockwood, a native of Buffalo, attended old Central High School here. He received his bachelor's degree from Yale in 1895 and studied law in the office of Rogers, Locke and Milburn. Since he attended the university's Law school for a year and the Cornell Law school for a year, he is an alumnus of the university in the broad sense of the word. He was admitted to the bar in 1897. Mr. Lockwood has served ably and diligently on the general administration committee of the Council of the University of Buffalo since his election to that body in 1919. He is also a trustee of the Grosvenor Library. State Teachers College, the Buffalo Seminary, the Buffalo Historical Society, the J. N. Adam Memorial Hospital at Perrysburg (he was one of its founders), LOCKWOOD LIBRARY, LASTING MEMORIAL and previously served as a trustee of Union College, a post he resigned in 1920. The Lockwood Memorial Library, which was dedicated in 1935, was presented to the university by Mr. Lockwood and the late Marion Birge Lockwood in memory of their fathers, Daniel N. Lockwood and George K. Birge. At the time of its dedication, Mr. Lockwood also gave to the university practically his entire collection of books, many of them extremely rare, numerous original manuscripts and letters of value and a number of rare coins and medals. "The university," said Chancellor O.pen in conferring the medal, "has already acknowledged to him its deep indebtedness. It now points out that it is not the sole beneficiary. In a sense it is a trustee for the community. These gifts, the building and the collection, not only bring celebrity to the university which possesses them; they permanently enhance the aesthetic and intellectual life of Buffalo and give it distinction among the cities of the land." Mr. Lockwood is the 15th recipient of the Chancellor's Medal which was provided for in the will of the late Chancellor Charles P. Norton and which is designed "to personify civic patriotism and vivify public service in the eyes of the citizens of Buffalo." Degrees Conferred At the mid-year exercises, the following sixty-five degrees, certificates and diplomas were awarded, fifty-one to new alumni: degrees—bachelor of arts, 12; bachelor of education, 5; bachelor of science in nursing, 4; bachelor of science in the School of Business Administration, 4; bachelor of library science, 3; bachelor of fine arts, 1; master of education, 18; master of social service, 4; and master of arts, 3; certificates —in engineering, 1; in arts and sciences, 1; in business administration, 1; in social work, 1; and graduate certificate in social work, 6; diploma in business administration, 1. One of the recipients of the master of education degree was Alfred J. Hoffmeister who has been totally deaf since his senior year in high school eleven years ago and is the first person thus handicapped by total deafness to receive his master's degree from the university. Speaker Discusses "New Order" The Honorable Robert H. Jackson, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, was the principal speaker at the exercises. His topic was: "Youth Faces The New Order,' " a very timely subject which he discussed with consummate and masterly skill. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Service Roll Grows Merit Dinner Repeated Campus Flashes While not all of the information we obtain about our alumni in service can be published without violating the censorship code and possibly endangering lives, we plan to continue to list the names of those who enter upon active duty and, where possible, to include items of interest concerning their experiences and activities. Such material is in perfect conformity with the present interpretation of the code. We theretore ask again that you, classmates and friends of alumni active in service, keep us informed of their movements. May we say, too, that we appreciate the notes we have received, including those from the "serving alumni" themselves, whose communications are of necessity rather One hundred star athletes from -13 Erie and Niagara County high schools were guests of honor at the third annual Merit Award dinner held in Norton hall on March 7. The principal speakers were Chancellor Samuel P. Capen and Mayor Joseph J. Kelly, LLB '20. Harold Houser, freshman at the university, addressed the group as the representative of last year's award win- The Alumni Office plans to send copies oi the Bulletin to seniors in the various divisions in an attempt to acquaint them with alumni activities and perhaps in this way help to prepare them for the transition from undergraduate to graduate status. To keep alumni informed of student affairs, an effort will be made to devote at least one article each month to student news. Fred Allen Broadcast On Sunday, April 12, some talented U. B. student will be a guest of Fred Allen and the lucky winner of a trip to New York plus a $200 cash prize. Chosen by a series of auditions planned by a student-faculty committee whose chairman is Norton Union director Robert Parke, the semi-finalists will perform for Mr. Allen's talent scout late this month. Their classmates will vote for their choice of the three finalists who will broadcast over WGR. Mr. Allen will announce the winner on his April sth show. Physical Fitness Stressed Inaugurated by a special recreational program held on Valentine's Day, the campaign of the Physical Fitness Drive committee, headed by Grace L. Primas, is well under way. As part of its program emphasizing exercise, directed recreation and general health care, the women's division of physical education is sponsoring a sports day in Clark Memorial gymnasium on Sat., March 28. Six junior and senior girls, selected on the basis of their "athletic ability and sportsmanship qualities," have been invited from each of the high schools in the Buffalo area. Students aiding faculty members in the planning of the program include: Dorothy J. Dougan, Jean C. Gates, Virginia D. Hofmeister, Helene Messerschmidt. Ruth F. Schauf, Ruth M. Schwendler, Alice D. Wilbert and Dorothy C. Woodward, all enrolled in the new physical education course, and Charlotte Georgi, president of the Women's Athletic Association. Prom Events Crowned Queen of the highly-successful 1942 Junior Prom is Christine C. Gibson, whose beauty upholds the finest tradition of campus queens. Sharing the spotlight were the new Bisonhead "tappees", Everett E. Brown, Colin MacLeod, Dean C. Stathacos, Donald F. Stickney and Alfred J. rare. Among the positions of importance held by our graduates is that of Commander Robert J. Lawler, MD '04, who was recently promoted from the rank of Lt. Com. and who is the Senior Medical Officer of the Marine Corps of the Buffalo recruiting district. Com. Lawler served nobly in World War I, a part of the time as regimental surgeon with the Fifth Marines in France. He was awarded the Navy Distinguished Service Cross, the Purple Heart, the Silver Star, the Victory Medal and the Croix de Guerre with palm. Although no official authentication has been obtained, it is believed that the director of the open-air base hospital on Bataan peninsula, Colonel Carlton L. Vanderboget, is a graduate of our Medical school, class of 1910. An article which appeared in Life magazine (Feb. 16, 1942 issue) described the hospital as able to take care of 2,900 patients at the time of writing, Feb. 6. An operating unit under a tent, bombs jarring the operating table—these are but two of the back-drops in the setting for the drama which is being enacted under Bataan skies. The article also includes mention of some examples of self-sacrifice and resolute industry which are evident in the Medical Corps workers as they match the heroism of the men in the front-lines. Another name added to the growing list of Red Cross workers is that of D. Bruce Falkey, Soc '40, MSS '41, who volunteered for overseas service. Recent advancements in position achieved by alumni include the following: Capt. William G. Cook, BS '27, chosen as an instructor at the Infantry School at Fort Benning; Edwin B. Harnish, PhG '39, from Pvt. First Class to Lieutenant at Camp Joseph T. Robinson; Willis A. Manning, BS (Bus) '39, from Private to Corporal with a tank destroyer battalion; Thomas M. O'Connor, LLB '40, from Second to First Lieutenant; and Brainard E. Prescott, LLB '35, from Captain to Major, director of law at the Provost Martial School at Arlington. To our knowledge, the only alumnus thus far to belong to a parachute troop unit is 2nd Lt. Norman R. Nickerson, Edß '39. The following names have been added to our "Service" file since the publication of the February list: Pvt. Robert B. Cooney, BS (Phar) '41. D Bruce Falkey, Soc '40, MSS '41 (Red Cross). ners. William C. Baird, university council member, acted as toastmaster and was also the deserving recipient of a "most valuable football player award" in recognition of his efforts on behalf of the university's athletic activities, not least among which were his inauguration of the dinner and his contributions to its success. James E. Peelle, director of athletics and football coach, presented the honor medals to the athletes. After the dinner, the sports stars were guests at the Buffalo-Susquehanna basketball game in Clark Memorial gymnasium where they witnessed a 40-27 U. B. triumph. Summer Session Notes As part of the university's accelerated program described in a previous issue, the Summer Session will operate for twelve weeks from June 29 to Sept. 19, 1942. Instruction is planned on six, eight and twelve week arrangements for regular courses. In the first six-week period ending Aug. 8, special emphasis will be placed upon courses for teachers and school administrators. To make the transition as easy as possible, arrangements will be made to introduce recent high school graduates to college life. Special attention will be given to "total fitness.' MICHAEL WILL NAMES UNIVERSITY Professor Arthur Michael of Newton, Mass., brother of Edward Michael, a member of the university council, generously named the university as one of the institutions to share in his estate, bequeathing to it several sets of chemistry books and $5000 to be used to purchase other books.

I. course in civilian defense, has been designated special post warden for the campus and will instruct the building wardens in protective techniques. �ALUMNI BULLETIN 3 FACULTY BRIEFS When a separate department of student health and physical education for women was established early this month, Miss Helen 1. Driver, assistant professor of hygiene and physical education, was named as its head. Director of women's physical education since 1938 and author of 'Tennis for Teachers," a physical education textbook, Miss Driver was recently honored also by being chosen woman tennis representative on the National Sports Board, a unit of the Office of Civilian Defense. "Holmes-Pollock Letters," edited by Mark DeWolfe Howe, Dean of the School of Law, is now in its fifth printing. The "American Mercury"' describes it as "A travel book for the mind, this.

The "American Sociological Review" of February, 1942, contained an article on "Social Organization and Crime in Small Wisconsin Communities," written by Dr. Arthur L. Wood, instructor in sociology and anthropology. Two Renew '37 Pledge Two senior memorial pledgors of the class of 1937, having completed payment on their original pledges, have asked that those pledges be renewed. Elmer S. Groben, BA, MD '41, states that he has "hopes of contributing to this cause indefinitely, renewing each subscription as it is paid up." Jacob Zauderer, DDS, also pledged for another five years, "thus to maintain my contact with the University, however remote and flimsy it may be." These entirely voluntary, unsolicited renewals cannot help but warm the hearts of those interested in the plan who have continuously hoped that these contributions would form the nucleus of a Loyalty Fund, built up by annual gifts.

PLEASE NOTIFY US OF CHANGE OF ADDRESS Navy Chooses McGrath Administrative Dean Earl J. McGrath, BA 28, MA '30, is making news on many fronts these days. In addition to representing the university at a conference on pre-india tion military training held under the auspices of the Institute of Military Studies at the University of Chicago late in February, he was shortly thereafter named by the McGiath, '28 ■ Navy Department to be one of seven curriculum policy consultants. He and Mr. Frank Bowles, director of admissions of Columbia University, were asked to remain in Washington on full-time duty for a month to administer the policy by which the navy hopes to recruit 80,000 men a year from the country's colleges. The V-l plan, as it is known, calls for appointment of students as apprentice seamen with inactive status for two years, during which they will take pre-induction naval training courses in addition to their regular college work. At the end of the two years, they will enter either the V-5 (air corps) or the V-7 (officers of the deck) class, members of the latter group being able to finish their college programs and obtain degrees before entering active service. After enlistment, the students must pass the required courses or report for active duty as seamen. To be eligible under the new program, the colleges and universities must have compulsory physical education for all male students. In addition, mathematics through trigonometry and physics are to be required. After receiving the list of rules and regulations governing the new policy, in- £r 5 A.

Dr. Willard H. Bonner spoke on "Books in a Confused World," describing certain phases of the war which have affected books and their publication and discussing the role of the printed word in this time of crisis. The February and March schedule includes two meetings, one on the 19th of each month. Like the other gatherings, they will be held at 8:15 P. M., in the Blue Room of Norton Hall. Mr. Clark R. Simmons is the February speaker, his topic, "Plastics Today and Tomorrow." Dr. John Clarke Adams will speak on the "Current Picture in Europe." ARTS ALUMNI April 18 is the date set by the Arts alumni for their annual banquet which will be held in the Park Lane. At this affair, which marks the climax of the year's activities, officers will be elected and the program for 1942-43 will be considered. SOCIAL WORK The alumni, student body, consulting associates and faculty of the school were invited to attend a luncheon meeting held by the alumni association late in January. Miss Frieda Held, a member of the staff of the Toronto Children's Aid Society and a lecturer on the Fenton Foundation, was the main speaker at the meeting. She discussed professional aspects of child evacuee work in Canada. Richard E. Seeber, Soc '41, was chosen as a director of the association succeeding Howard R. Studd, BA '36, Soc '37, who had accepted a position in Atlanta, Georgia. INSTITUTE CHOOSES DIRECTORS Among those named at the annual meeting held late in January to serve threeyear terms as directors of the International Institute are James R. Borzilleri, MD '34, Dean Niles Carpenter of the School of Social Work, and David Diamond, LLB '19. Marta Mazurowska, BS (Ed) '35, EdM '38, was elected for a one-year term. ROBERT H. JACKSON As was announced in last month's Bulletin, The Honorable Robert H. Jackson, Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, will speak at the university's 42nd annual University Day and mid-year commencement. The exercises will be held on February 23, beginning at 11 A. M., and will be broadcast over a local station from 11 o'clock to 12. The setting for the exercises will again be the auditorium of Edmund Hayes hall. The speaker, who recently celebrated his 50th birthday, was admitted to the bar in 1913 and practiced law in Jamestown from that time until 1934 when he was appointed general counsel of the Bureau of Internal Revenue. His spectacular rise during the years which followed was climaxed last year by his appointment to the highest branch of our nation's judicial department, the United States Supreme Court. He had in the meantime served as assistant attorney general of the United States from 1936-38, as solicitor general from 1938-39, and as attorney general from 1940-41. The Chancellor's Medal, the university's only honorary award, will again be presented this year to some citizen whose achievements include distinguished service which is identified with Buffalo. No. 1 Senior Memorial Grows Since the announcement published in last October's Bulletin concerning the Senior Memorial Pledge of the ciass of 1941, four additional pledges have been received from Law alumni and twelve more from Medical alumni. The new Law pledgors are Cameron L. Linderman, Edward J. Marschner, Albert R. Mugel, and Louis L. O'Brien. The doctors whose pledges have been added to the original list are: Alfred J. Ferrari, George A. Gentner, Jr., Rutherford S. Gilfillan, Lida G. Gottsch, Carl J. Graf, Pasquale A. Greco, Emanuel Green, BA '37, Elmer S. Groben, BA '37 (a joint pledge with Mrs. Martha Zimmerman Groben, BA '38, BS (LS) "39), Arnold Gross, Donald W. Hall, Eugene J. Hanavan. Jr., and Mary I. Henrich. The addition of these pledges brings the total number of pledgors in the 1941 group to 168. The 1942 statements have been mailed by the fund agents in each of the six classes included in the plan. Gratifying and heart-warming indeed have been some of the replies, including those from alumni in service. For example, one private wrote the following note at the top of his statement and enclosed it with his payment: "Good timing on the part of the Fund Agent as it arrived a day after Army payday so I have a small bit of cash." LITTLE MAYORS HOLD INSTALLATION Frank D. White, '23, one of the four Law alumni recently installed as officers of the Little Mayors of Buffalo and Erie County, Inc., is the new president of the group. The other alumni are: Dean J. Candee, '24, financial secretary; Joseph A. Kolassa, '24, counsellor-at-law; and Patrick J. Keeler, '05, judge advocate. PROM DATE ANNOUNCED The 21st annual Junior Prom will be held on Saturday, February 28, in the Hotel Statler ballroom. The two feature events which have become a part of the night's tradition will again highlight this year's affair for the most popular girl from the junior class will be crowned Prom Queen and worthy students will be tapped for membership in Bisonhead, senior men's honorary society. The chairman of the Prom committee is Joseph Watson of the Law school. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO More Alumni Serving Crofts Is Commended Alumni News Brevities just as this issue teas going to press with another "Alumni in Service" story, the Alumni Office received its copy of the American Alumni Council News from which is quoted the following paragraph: ''The War Department has asked all publishers of periodicals, as a matter of policy, to refrain from listing the names or numbers of the tactical units or the addresses of men in the Army, because of the extensive movement of troops in the past few weeks." The revamped list given below includes only the names, therefore, of alumni in service who were not listed in the December article. Two alumni, 2nd Lt. Joseph J. Kerr, LLB '31. and Capt. Maurice Lutwack, LLB '30, who had been relieved from active duty have been recalled to service; while Col. Edwin O. Saunders, LLB '12, a former corps area judge advocate, has retired from the Army. Among interesting sidelights on our alumni in service are the following: Lt. John L. Lincoln, MD '39, has acted as medical officer on at least one coast guard cutter; Virginia E. McNabb, BA '37, Soc '38, is psychiatric case worker at an American Red Cross Station Hospital; and Capt. Gardner E. Robertson, MD '06, who has been in service in the Medical Corps of the Navy for more than 32 years, is commanding olficer of a large Naval Hospital. At the university councils annual dinner meeting, Chancellor Samuel P. Capen pre- sented a resolution, which the council en t husiastically adopted, paying glowing tribute to George D. Crofts in recognition of his 20 years of highlysuccessful administration as comptroller and treasurer of the university. Mr. Crofts, whose affili- ation with this institution began in GEORGE D. CROFTS 1904 when he became a lecturer in the Law school, was commended for "his legal acumen, his expert financial knowledge," as well as for "his blend of mature wisdom and bold imagination." The soundness of the university's financial investments and the nine-year record of "living safely within its annual income" are credited largely to Mr. Crofts' perspicacity. Chancellor Capen also presented to the council an outline of the university's program planned to meet the present emergency. James McCormick Mitchell, LLB "97, chairman of the council, presided at the meeting. The Honorable Joseph J. Kelly, LLB *20, Buffalo's mayor, exofficio member of the council, spoke briefly at this, his first meeting with the group. ALUMNI IN SERVICE Alma E. Bachmann, Nrs '38 First Lt. Victor M.

This acceleration can be accomplished by attendance for two 12-week summer periods in addition to the regular three academic years. Students may earn from 12 to \6 hours of credit in the two summer sessions which will be divided into two 6-week terms to be conducted this year from June 29 to August 8, and from August 10 to September 19. The main purposes of this modification are to enable college students to complete and high school students to obtain a full college education before they become eligible for service and to train students in specialized fields necessary for military and civilian duties. The three-year plan is optional and is open to both men and women. Under the university's program, the Easter vacation and the June commencement date remain as originally scheduled. The School of Social Work, whose programs are not four years in length, will also operate on the yearround basis. The university also announced that high school students who completed their courses in January or who had earned 15 units of high school credit (instead of the 16 required for graduation) might enter the university in the second semester and plan to follow this three-year plan. High school students presenting less than 15 units, but who expect to be graduated this coming June, may take courses in Millard Fillmore College, the evening division, while finishing their high school careers. The arrangement of the curriculum is such that students may register in beginning courses in the second semester in English, economics, history, engineering, drawing, trigonometry, analytic geometry, college algebra, philosophy, music, biology, and conversational Spanish. A number of new offerings open to campus students during the second semester are specifically designed to help prepare for military service. Included are: courses in emergency civilian work, namely, First Aid, Home Nursing and Child Care, and Nutrition; courses in military fitness entitled Physical Fitness, and Military Hygiene and Sanitation; a course in Navigation and Piloting and one in Naval History (to be given by Dr. Julius W. Pratt, formerly of Annapolis); a biology course in Insects and Defense; a course in Spanish in Castilian and South American; and special courses in mathematics and engineering. Millard Fillmore College announced that it planned to offer the following selected courses: Navigation and Meteorology, Standard Aircraft Design Practices . and Specifications, Internal Combustion Engines, Strength of Materials, Design of Steel and Concrete Structures, Time Study and Wage Incentives, Personnel Management and Labor Relations and certain beginning courses in accounting, mathematics and psychology. Students in the College of Arts and Sciences and in the School of Business Administration who attend New York Guard drills and instructions may receive one semester hour of credit each semester toward their degrees. This action is retroactive to the first semester. Following close upon the heels of these announcements came statements of changes in policy in the schools of Law and Medicine. The Law school's present junior class will begin its senior year in June and will be graduated on December 23, 1942, six months earlier than under the present system. A 12-weeks' summer term will be compulsory for seniors but, for the present, the early part of the Law course is not being accelerated. This year, too, the Court of Appeals is allowing the senior class to take the Bar examinations in March, before the students take their final school examinations. It is possible that moving up of graduation dates to allow students to complete their Law courses before being called into military or government service may result in the giving of Bar examinations even earlier. The Medical school will accelerate its four-year course by eliminating summer vacations and by conducting its twelve terms continuously over a period of three years. Its new class will be admitted on July 6 rather than in the fall. By adopting the four-quarter plan, it is felt that the extraordinarily high standards of medical education will not be sacrificed and yet the school will be helping to remedy the shortage of doctors by producing them in less time. The School of Dentistry has been operating on a four-quarter plan for a number of years. John Lord O'Brian, LLB '98, has been chosen by Donald M. Nelson, chairman of the War ProducBoard, to act I on of the new position revious O'BRIAN, '98 post as iefunct Office oduction Man- agement. FALLS PARTY PLANNED The Niagara Falls Alumni Club will hold "Open House" this year instead of its annual dinner because the national emergency and the fact that many of its members are engaged in defense work make it difficult to plan for the traditional type of affair. Alice L. Schelosky, BA '34, who acts as secretary for these alumni, writes that they are inviting their friends to drop in at the Hotel Niagara on Thursday evening, February 26, to renew acquaintances and to enjoy an informal social gathering. The evening's entertainment, which is not yet completely planned, is expected to include informal talks by speakers from the university and perhaps some musical entertainment. There will also be election of officers and the preparation of a club program for the coming year. ALUMNI APPOINTED AS ARBITRATORS Karl A. McCormick, LLB '08, and Alger A. Williams, LLB '21, were among the five Buffalonians who were recently appointed to membership on the national panel of arbitrators of the American Arbitration Association. BULLETIN Just as this issue was going to press, the university announced that it was planning a still further contribution to the war and defense effort in the form of a school for gas defense organized at the request of the Erie County Defense Council. Dr. Howard W. Post, assistant professor of chemistry, is responsible for arranging the course which will prepare 50 chemistry teachers from Erie County high schools to instruct the citizens in their communities on intelligent methods of combating dangerous gases. Five groups of ten each will begin the course at successive weekly intervals, receiving 12 hours of instruction, 5 in general home defense and elementary chemistry, 5 in practical aspects of gas defense, and 2 in actual drill. The course is scheduled to begin as soon as the modern gas-fighting equipment to WOMEN LAWYERS ELECT Alpha Delta Chapter of Kappa Beta Phi, women's international legal sorority, recently announced the election of the following new officers, all Law alumnae: Zenia J. Smokowski, '39, dean; Winifred C. Stanley, BA '30, '33, vice-dean; Eleanor W. Tauriello, '39, chancellor; Lillian Geiger Cowan, '27, registrar; Abbie E. Hauck, "25, quarterly correspondent; and Freda Dickman Newbury, '26, marshal. be used in the drill and now on order is received. The seven instructors include four from the faculty of the university. The school is also arranging to provide chemistry experts who will be available to speak before local groups on this same topic of gas defense. �4 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI BULLETIN Published monthly except July, August and September, by the University of Buffalo at 3435 Main Street, Buffalo, N.

Colleges and universities expected the prescription of regulations which would formally defer the military training and service of students in medical,dental and engineering schools and of advanced students in certain scientificfields. Sincethe power to defer,or not to defer,the service of any individual lies in the hands of his local board, the status of students in the scientificspecialties is still somewhat uncertain. In all probability the vast majority of students of medicine,dentistry, pharmacy and engineering will be allowed to finish their studies beforebeing called. Those preparing themselves for specialization in physics and chemistry, and the applications of these may appear to many local boards sciences, to have a less valid claim for deferment. The relation of college and university students to the draft is therefore less definite than institutional officershad reason to expect it would be. After a yearin which the energies of the country have been intensively applied to defenseproduction, and in which unprecedented amounts of moneyhave been appropriated by the federal government for defensepurposes, there is no comprehensive programfor the use of colleges and universties as centers of special training or as agencies of research. Most of the better equipped universities and technical schools have been asked to organize certain new courses designed to meet one phase or another of the emergency.To manyof them assignments of research projects have also been made. But as yet these undertakings appear to be unco-ordinated. Members of the teaching staffs of the higher institutions have been summoned in large numbers to conduct investigations bearing upon defenseactivities and to administer technical undertakings in connection with the defenseprogram.An important part of any comprehensive plan for the best use of the country's scientificresources would be the assignment of a certain proportion of the leading experts in everyfield to teaching duties,in order that .the supply of adequately trained youngmen maybe maintained. If a nation is to be strong in its hour of military peril and in the hours which follow a military emergency,it cannot throw all its energies into the creation of engines of war and turn all its youth indiscriminately to the tasks of making and operating these engines. For a nation is strong to defenditself precisely in proportion as it cultivates the minds and spirits of its people, in proportion as it lets nothing interferewith the training of young leaders for the intellectual operations which are essential both to military defense and to civil planning and direction, precisely in proportion as it fostersthe humane impulses of the people and their religious aspirations. that these It is imperatively necessary factsshould be brought home to the public and its official leaders. Here is a task for all who are qualified to be the spokesmen of our universities,whether they be students, teachers, trustees or alumni. Privately supported institutions anticipate a sharp falling off of gifts and bequests because of new federaltaxes and of organizations for the relief of war sufferers. In calculating protable losses in enrollment for the coming year the university has had to take account of both the draft and the employment situation. For the first time in a decade jobs are plentiful; and wages are higher. In the summer of 1940 plans were laid for the offering of a number of new courses within the field of engineering which officers of the university believed would be of assistance to persons employed in defenseindustries,as well as to those expecting to enter one of the technical services of the military establishment. The university has no school of engineering. However,it has offered work in the basic engineering subjects and in a few engineering specialties. In order to meet the expected needs of additional instruction in the fields referred to it added another full-time professor to its engineering staff. The new courses were hardly under way beforean appropriation was made by the federalgovernment to subsidize engineering instruction for persons in defense industries. The regulations governing the distribution of the appropriation restricted its use to approved 4-year engineering schools. Cornell University, which had already set up an officein Buffalo to administer special advanced courses in engineering subjects, became the recipient of the federal grant and expanded its offerings to cover the same basic engineering subjects which the university had undertaken to provide. Sincethe appropriation enabled Cornell to offer this instruction without a tuition charge, and since this university could not offer its own courses without fees, much of the work which the university had projected was dropped. The university, has nevertheless, continued to co-operate by furnishing quart- ers for the conduct of these courses and by lending some of its instructors. The university has already begun to turn its facilities for technical instruction into other channels believed to be equally valuable in the present emergency. Two projects of this sort deserve special mention. Together with the Industrial Management Committeeof the Buffalo Chamber of Commerce the university has launched a cooperative plan for industrial training designed to prepare skilled personnel for plants engaged in defenseindustries. The plan provides a training period of 64 weeks, half of which is spent by the student in university courses and half undergoing supervised training in one of the co-operating industries. With the assistance of a group of directors of manufacturing industries the university has also worked out a 4-year course in industrial technology leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science. The curriculum combines instruction in fundamentalengineering subjects and subjects from the general field of business administration. During the year under review an advanced course was added to the elementary course of the Civil Pilot Training Program and the university was given a quota of trainees for both programs.All participants during the past year have been obliged to sign a pledge to apply for military service after the completion of the work; and students in the secondary program have been given the regular Army Air Corps physical examination. Our record for successful completion of these courses remains outstanding. An intensive effort to secure contributions to the general funds of the university and for special purposes has been conducted through the Office of the Associate Secretary. One result of this effort was the establishment of two fellowships of $1,000 each for graduate students in chemistry. These fellowships were contributed by the Company, through BuffaloElectro-Chemical Mr. CharlesA. Buerk, its president. The uncertainties of the period through which we are passing bear most heavily upon the student bodies of our universities. Many students are in a quandary as to what to do. The officersof the university have consistently advised all students in good standing to continue their studies;and if their university courses are interrupted by the draft, to plan to return and complete them. Several divisions of the university have organized their programsin shorter units, so that anyone who may be draftedcan complete a definitecourse of study before leaving and can re-enter after his service with out loss of time. �ALUMNI BULLETIN PRINCIPAL DEVELOPMENTS OF THE YEAR 1940-41 The Enrollment and the Financial Condition of the University The total enrollment for the year under review was 5100. This represents a decline of 3.5 per cent from the enrollment of the preceding year. Of the total, 1886 were regular students in the full-time day divisions. The enrollment in these divisions declined 2.88 per cent in the year under review. The enrollment in the Summer Sessionof 1940 dropped 16.75 per cent. The enrollment in the Millard Fillmore College declined 3.22 per cent. The income from feesof students constitutes approximately 80 per cent of the university's total income. The annual increases in the total income reported for a number of yearshave been almost entirely due to increases in enrollment. Because of the conservative practice which the council adopted in estimating income and expenditures in formulating the university budget, there has been for some time an operating surplus at the end of each fiscalyear. When the budget for 1941-42 was adopted it was to appropriate 336,486.65 of the necessary surplus, notwithstanding the considerable reductions in the estimates presented by most of the divisions of the university. Without an annual operating surplus, the annual budgetscould not have been balanced during the past 5 years. Sincepractically all the university's appropriations are for on-going enterprises, it becomes necessary for it to better its budget estimates by a substantial sum each year. It is highly problematical whether it can continue to do so. Central University Services TheLibraries The Lockwood Memorial Library received a collection of approximately 1.200 books in the fieldsof penology and criminology from the family of W. H. Gratwick. From Mr. George Nathan Newman it received a most valuable collection of miscellaneous literature numbering over 10,000 volumes. Public Lectures The income from the James Fenton Foundation is used to bringdistinguished authorities in various fieldsfor lectures of interest to the general public. Eleven persons have appeared on this Foundation this year. The Orin E. Foster Lecture Fund, at the request of the donor, Mrs. Foster,is devoted to the physical sciences, chiefly chemistry. Eighteen lectures were delivered on this Foundation. Bureau of Personnel Research This bureau annually applies the most revealing of the modern devices of measurement to all undergraduates in the campus schools. It is doubtful whether the traits and capacities of the students of any other institution are more thoroughly investigated and recorded;or whether the results of 3 modern measurement are anywhere else more effectively used in the guidance of students' educational careers. The completeness of these records conof antributes greatly to the effectiveness other activity of the bureau,namely, placeteaching, field of the Except ment. in the problem of placement has been this year much less difficult. Quite properly the bureau has devoted much of its attention to the replacement of certain alumni who have been out of college one or more years and have been unable to find employment commensurate with their abilities. Bureau of Business and SocialResearch The work of this bureau falls into 4 divisions: (1) the collection and publication of current business and social statistics; (2) the investigation of economic and social problems and the publication of the results; (3) the furnishing of information to various business groups;and (4) the accumulation of statistical factsand sources of data. In addition to the StatisticalSurvey, the regular publication, one special study has been published duringthe year.This relates to the population and housing aspects of the 1940 Tract Censusof Buffalo. Activities of the Divisions College of Arts and Sciences The distinguishing featureof the work of the college is the plan of tutorial instruction. This scheme of instruction is highly individualized. During the year just passed the tutorial plan was under examination again by the faculty. Its continuance in substantially its present form was overwhelmingly endorsed. Library ScienceCourse: A year ago the university appointed Mr. Joseph B. Rounds as assistant professor to serve as a full time teacher in the Library ScienceCourse. With this addition to the staff it has been possible to undertake an extensive reorganization of this enterprise. In spite of a protracted illness, which resulted in his death on May 31. 1941, Dr. Augustus H. Shearer,the Director of the Library Science Coursefrom its foundation,initiated and oversaw the investigations which resulted in these changes. His untimely death deprives the university of the services of one of its most stimulating teachers and most indefatigable administrators. On June 6, 1941 the council appointed Mr. Rounds Associate Professorof Library Scienceand Director of the Library ScienceCourse. The Jones Professorship: The war in Europe interferedwith the regular annual engagement of a French university professor to hold the Mrs. Joseph T. Jones Professorship for a full semester. The university was exceptionally fortunate, however, in being able to engagethe distinguished author and scholar, M. Andre Maurois of the French Academy, for a portion of the second semester. School of Medicine The executive committee of the school decided to discontinue the comprehensive . examination for fourth year students and to require all candidates for graduation to pass Part II of the National Board Examinations since many of the graduating students were taking the latter and the imposition of another comprehensive examination constituted a serious burden. Beforebeing admitted to the 3rd year all students must pass Part I of the National Board Examinations. At the end of the 3rd year they receive the comprehensive examination prepared by the school's committee on examinations. The library of the Medical school now contains some 30,000 volumes and 55,000 pamphlets. The problem of providing better facilities for the use of the collection becomes every yearmore pressing. Without radical reconstruction of the present building no solution seems to be in sight. This yearthe committee form of management was extended to the Department of Postgraduate and ContinuationWork. In addition to the annual Postgraduate Course for Practitioners,the Committeehas provided weekly lectures to practitioners and has sponsored a series of public lectures for the laity. School of Dentistry The principal stumbling blocks for dental students have lain in the pre-clinical subjects administered by the Schoolof Medicine. In certain of these subjects the whole group of dental students uniformly ranks much lower than the contemporary group of medical students. The percentage of failure is high. During the present year, a committee representing both schools, under the chairmanship of the Director of the Bureau of Personnel Research, was appointed to take the whole plan of medicaldental education under review. The congested condition of the library of the Medical school bears seriously upon the library facilities of the Dental school. Some years ago the administrations of the two libraries were combined and the Dental library was moved to the Medical building. It has been necessary to move the overflow of dental books and periodicals back to the Dental building, with some resulting inconvenience to both the student body and the faculty. The Dental school has been experimenting with a comprehensive examination administered at the end of the dental course. The results have proved to be highly satisfactory and the faculty has voted to make the examination a permanent feature. Schoolof Pharmacy The standard course of study for preparation for pharmacy is now 4 yearsin length. Stateauthorities have announced that after January, 1943 all candidates for licensure in New York must have had at least 1 year of approved experience following graduation. The arbitrary lengthening of courses of professional training always tends to reduce the number of students in professional schools. There is an acute shortage of qualified pharmacists in the State of �4 New York; and all schools have shown a falling off in numbers as the result of the increased requirements imposed several yearsago. The demands of the military services for pharmacists will intensify this shortage. The enrollment in the Schoolof Pharmacyhas lately increased slowly. We may safely anticipate, however,that it will once more respond adversely to the new State requirement. Schoolof Law In February, 1941 Mr. Francis M. Shea, Assistant Attorney General of the United Stateson leave from the university, resigned the Deanship and on April 29th Professor Mark De Wolfe Howe was appointedDean of the Schoolof Law. Space for the school's rapidly growing library is required. The university has recently turned over to the school the small building formerly occupied by the Buffalo Chapter of the American Institute of Architects. The top floor is not yet in use. If it can be transformedinto an overflowstack room it will relieve the worst of the present congestion. The Bar Association of Erie County this year offeredto 2nd and 3rd yearstudents the privilege of student membership. Schoolof Business Administration The faculty of this school is likely to be more heavily raided by governmental agencies than that of anyother division. Experts in economics,statistics,business organization and marketing are already in great demand. Two of the senior professors have been granted leaves of absence and others have been called for temporary short time services. The university must be prepared for still further calls upon its staff in the near future. The enrollment of the school reached a new high point with a total of 287 students. School of Education Two decades ago the shortage of skilled personnel constituted the most serious weakness of American public and private schools. Educators all over the country devotedthemselves to the task of bringing this fact to the public attention. Their efforts have proved to be too successful. It was suddenly discovered that instead of having too few teachers we had too many. It was not until youngpeoplegenerally came to realize the hard fact that they would now be offering their wares in a highly competitive market,and that opportunities for employment were sharply limited, that the influx of students into teacher training institutions began to be checked. The rising tide of persons trained for the teaching profession has been met by a fallingoff in the school population. In this field of professional education the country facesa period of painful readjustment. Ever since the establishment of the School of Education at the university its Dean and staffhave resisted demands for the inflation UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO of its offerings. As the school facesthe new and harder conditions it does not find itself under the necessity of squeezing water out of an overinfiatedenterprise. Somethree years agothe school presented to the council a programfor the training of teachers of physical education,health and recreation. Physical education is one of the fieldsin which the supply of competent instructors is still inadequate. In April, 1941 the Committeeon GeneralAdministration of the council approved the program. School of SocialWork As the national defenseeffort has come into full swing unemployment has dropped off. The center of gravity in the field of social work is shifting back to the private agencies. And once more the school must adjust itself to the new situation. The Dean and faculty of the Schoolof SocialWork of this university have resisted vigorously the tendency which has developed in the American Association of Schools of Social Work to impose upon member schools fixed curriculum requirements. The wisdom of their position has constantlybeen justifiedby the succession of radical changes in the types of service that social workers called upon to render. The demands of a group of social workers in Rochester for extramural courses were met by an arrangement with the University of Rochester. The university has conducted 2 courses in case work in Syracuse with the co-operation of the Syracuse Chapter of the American Association of SocialWorkers, and the Public Welfare Department of that are city. Schoolof Nursing The school's Director and her associates have been engaged in the definitionof the several groupswho should properly compose the faculty and the delimitation of their respective responsibilities and the examination and reorganization of the curriculum. It has been determined that the teaching staff of the school shall consist of the following groups: (1) a governing faculty composed largely of professional nurses; (2) administrative officerswith faculty rank in the university who, because of their positions either in the university or in co-operating hospitals and other community agencies,are concerned with the administrative activities of the school; (3) faculty associates and consultants active in one of the special fieldsof nursing; and (4) members of the facultiesof other divisions who teach courses in the Schoolof Nursing. Only 3 major programsleading to the degree of Bachelor of Sciencein Nursing are to be offeredfor the present, namely: (1) teaching and supervision in schools of nursing; (2) public health nursing (including preparation for school nursing); and (3) physical therapy. During the year the school was formally inspected for the first time by a delegate of the National Organization for Public Health Nursing and the curriculum for public health nurses received the provisional approval of this body. SummerSession The decrease in enrollment in 1940 seems to be plainly attributable to the uncertainties of the national situation and to the doubtful outlook for placement and promotion in the public schools. A large percentage of the summer enrollment consists always of teachers. It was this group of students which was notably smaller. Millard Fillmore College This college has organized and is now conducting the Co-operative Plan for Industrial Training. In the first years of its operation the Millard Fillmore College, then known as was typically an agency the Evening Session, for what is commonly called adult educaof the students now, majority tion. But the are taking regular university courses with the expectation of completing work for university degrees. Graduate Schoolof Arts and Sciences Twenty students completed the work for the degree of Master of Arts and two for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy during the past year. These represented the successfulcandidates from a groupof 50 whose programshad been accepted by the faculty and who hoped to complete the requirements within the year. Up to now there have been no fellowships and scholarships especially reserved for graduate students. The two fellowships in chemistry recently established by the Company will be Buffalo Electro-Chemical the first of this character. Lacking such formal subsidies to award, the university has been under no temptation to pad its rolls of graduate students and perhaps to lower its standards. With the standards and reputation of the school now firmly established,however,it is highly desirable that the university should command a considerable number of scholarships and fellowships to be awarded exclusively to graduate students. THE NEEDS OF THE UNIVERSITY The most urgent need of the university is an increase in its annual income to enable it to conduct more effectively the enterprises to which it is committed. Either additions to the general endowment,or the establishment of endowed professorships, would provide increased income in the most permanent and satisfactory form. If it proves to be impossible to secure substantial additions to the permanent funds of the university, annual contributions toward its current expenses must be sought. I use the imperative, because the developments which have been sketched above and which have been forecastindicate that unless increased income is forthcoming the university must curtail its activities or reduce their quality.

Gentlemen: The annual report of the comptroller for the fiscalyear which ended June 30, 1941 is presented herewith. The balance sheet,Exhibit "A", shows endowment assets of $6,081,170.21; plant assets of $7,045,900.36; and operating assets of $152,574.07. On June 30, 1941 the total funds in the endowment account were $6,073,960.71, as shown in Exhibit "A". On June 30, 1940 the total funds were $5,984,827.41. The net increase for the year, therefore,in endowment fundswas $89,133.30. Schedule"A-l" is an exhibit of the special purpose fundsof the university, which, at June 30, 1941,totalled $4,182,789.85. These special purpose funds are a part of the general endowment of the university but they have been restricted as to use by their respective donors. Exhibit "B" is an analysis of plant assets of the university at the close of the fiscal year on June 30, 1941. The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1940 was $7,024,350.40. The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1941 was $7,044,735.13. The increase during the year covered by this report, therefore,was $20,384.73. The total operating income for the year was $1,100.146.81; the total operating disbursements were $1,055,502.85. The year,therefore, closed with a net surplus of $44,643.96, which is 4.06 per cent of the total income for the year. Of this surplus the sum of $36,486.65 was appropriated by the committee on general administration to balance the budget for the fiscal year 1941-42. The total operating income for the year exceeded the total operating income of the preceding year by $32,250.25, while the total operating disbursements exceeded those of the preceding year by $19,291.27. The following is a comparative table of the operating account of the university for the fiscalyears 1938-39, 1939-40, and 1940-41: Fees Received from Students $ 843,474.41 $ 850,326.14 S 870,977.2Income from Endowment 157,159.56 163,497.28 160,942.1; Dental Infirmary (Net) 14,550.43 15,055.41 16,017.0 Gifts Received ro Apply on Salaries 8,000.00 4,500.00 8,000.01 Rental Property Income 2,130.00 1,690.00 3,065.01 9,460.4Miscellaneous 10,938.45 10,753.26 Appropriation of 1937-38 Surplus 24.381.28 21,634.47 Appropriation of 1938-59 Surplus Appropriation of 1939-40 Surplus M,684.9f _ Total Income SI,060,193-93 51,067,896.56 51,100,146.81 EXPENSES Expenses of Administration $ 149.002.99 5 150,797.06 $ 156,455-71 575,038.06 573,133.06 Salaries of Instruction 560,582.20 Supplies Used in Instruction 25,978.15 25,772.33 26,867.13 Operation and Maintenance of 99,823.29 100,820.54 113,541.77 Buildings Operation and Maintenance of 28,441.41 27,729.42 Central Heating Plant 24,242.28 Upkeep and Improvement— 41,475.04 University Campus 41,727.23 33,108.38 The University Library 54,875.04 35,494.7" 29,974.21 Departmental Libraries 10,608.58 10,377.14 9,506.15 Bureau of Business and Social Research 6,161.67 6,525.40 6,599.94 Department of Physical Education and Hygiene 16,981.80 16,155.25 16,685.09 The Registrar's Office 13,317.96 13,660.22 13.159.02 Furniture and Fixtures 4.996.35 3,320.19 2,843-31 Scientific Equipment 6,305.21 6,951.72 6,300.18 Catalogs, Bulletins, Printing and 8,045.68 7,724.02 8,105.95 Advertising 7,167.04 6,879.98 Insurance 8,530.09 5.164.89 3,217.50 Interest on Mortgages Payable 3.658.63 - _ _ 7,313.81 1,786.97 _ _ Total Expenses Surplus for the Year 7,188.76 5,324.87 7,271.29 2,347.80 44.41 15-97 2,251.63 1,892.77 1,208.58 $1,026,559-46 $1,036,211.58 $1,055,502.85 $ 33,634.47 $ 31,684.98 $ 44,643-96 During the year 1940-41 fees received from students equalled 79.2 per cent of the total income of the university for the year and 72.5 per cent of the total cost of operating the university for the year. Of the total expenses 54.3 per cent was for salaries of instruction;60.5 per cent was for salaries of instruction,plus supplies used in instruction and operation and maintenance of libraries. United States,state and municipal government bonds,purchased by the university, yielded an average income of 3.70 per cent on the actual investment;foreign government bonds,4.61 per cent; railroad bonds,3.86 per cent; public utility bonds,5-18 per cent", industrial bonds,4.25 per cent; miscellaneous bonds,all gifts, 2.04 per cent; stocks,4.31 per cent; real estate mortgages and mortgage yield on all stocks and bonds certificates,1.01 per cent. The average purchased and owned by the university, and excluding gifts, was 4.36 per cent for the year. On June 30, 1941 the stocks and bonds in the university portfolio which had been purchased by the university, and excluding gifts, were classifiedas follows on the basis of market worth: United States,state, municipal and foreign government bonds,20.1 per cent; railroad bonds,7-9 per cent; public utility bonds, 10.2 per cent; industrial bonds, 1.4per cent; public utility preferred stocks, 16.3 per cent; industrial preferred stocks,4.9 per cent; investment trust preferred stocks,2.2 per cent; bank preferred stocks,1.3 per cent; rail common stocks,.4 per cent; public utility common stocks, 1.9 per cent; industrial common stocks,18.9 per cent; bank capital stocks,3.7 per cent; insurance common stocks,7.2 per cent; and investment trust common stocks,3.6 per cent. The list is a diversified list of veryhigh quality. Gifts and bequests received during the year which ended June 30, 1941 included the following: Lorin James Woodruff Scholarship Fund, $50,000; addition to Seymour H. Knox Foundation, $16,063.38; addition to Dr. Charles Cary Memorial Fund, $5,524.70; Mr. and Mrs. George F. Rand,$5,000; Adam E.

It makes of scholarships College in the Arts and available at once five full for undergraduates of high scholastic attainments, of good Sciences character and outstanding qualities of leadership. Mrs. Woodruff's bequest takes its place amongl the large and important benefactions of the university. All of the foregoing, of course, deals with the financialposition of the university for the year justended. It is in looking forward to the prospect for the current yearand,beyond that, to the prospects for the years immediately ahead that the outlook for the university appears uncertain. As has been pointed out from time to time, there already exists in the university's financialstructure an improper balance between income from endowment and income from student fees. As the increases and the draft and defenseindustries make emergency further inroads into our student body, income from student fees will decline. The budget under which we are operating will be thrown out of balance and either we shall have to curtail some of the existing university services or we shall inevitably be facedwith operating deficits. �6 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO University of Buffalo Exhibit "A"—Balance Sheet as at June 30, 1941 Endowment Fund Assets: Bonds Public Utility Bonds Government Bonds Railroad Bonds Industrial Bonds Miscellaneous Bonds .. _ - ASSETS 354,895.4-> $ _ _ __ 397:085.10 27.045.00 _ _ 6 081 l"0 "*l -, 0 s q.)0 ,«; 290.55 $13,279,644.64 These are the immediate problems facing the university and tu their solution it is urged that the earnest attention of the council. the alumni and friends of the university be directed.

CHANCELLOR'S REPORT (Continued from page4) university need additional instructional service,whether or not the enrollment declines. These additions are necessary both because of the formal standards set by national accrediting bodies and because, as in the case of the Schoolof Medicine, these divisions facean increasing administrative burden in the conduct of their relations with the agencies in the community co-operating with them in the task of professional education. The council is painfully aware of the low scale of compensation of all classes of university employees. In the non-academic classifications,the staffs in charge of grounds and buildings and the clerical services,the university is already in sharp competition with other agencies of employment which offer higher compensation for the same kinds of work. It is inevitable that many of the university's employees will leave in order to better themselves financially, unless the university is able more nearly to meet the wagesand salaries now offeredby business and industry. The salaries of members of the teaching staffhave, ever since the reductions in the general salary scale imposed 8 yearsago, been so low as to entail considerable hardship on sions of the was elected one of the two professional members of the board of the council. at June 30, 1941, Carried $158,975.47 instructors. During this period the university has lost some of its strongest many teachers to institutions which were able to offer them higher compensation. Now, with a rise in the cost of living and with the increased burden upon small incomes imposed by new federal taxes, it may be impossible for many instructors to remain in the university's employ, even though they may greatly desire to do so. And opportunities for them to better themselves financially are likely to be much more numerous than at anytime during the past decade. I would urge upon the council that it make every possible effort duringthe forthcoming yearto increase the university's general funds and that it also endeavor to secure from alumni and friendsthe pledge of continuing annual contributions toward a fund to be used for current expenses. The other great need of the universityremains constant. I refer to the need of additional fundsfor scholarships and loans to students who are otherwise unable to financetheir general or professional education. Although welcome additions are made annually to the scholarship funds of the university, these remain far too small to serve the needs of the many able and aspiring young people of this community who earnestly desire a university education but cannot payfor it.

While many of the opportunities it affords have not been utilized, at least to their fullest extent, material support has been given to the programoutlined by the CHEETAH than 200 students have been trained in the primary part of the programand more than 100 in the advanced section since the establishment of the course in September, 1939. The contribution of the Schoolof Nursing to the general defenseactivities includes the expansion of curricula in actual nursing courses and in courses designed to prepare teachers and supervisors for schools of nursing. The latter courses were established government. by means of a recent federal grant issued In addition to the obvious service of for that purpose.

He and two assistants he chose designed and engineered the construction of the now-famousAqua-Cheetah, a land-andwater conveyance whose speed belies its ponderous appearance. The demonstration of its possibilities so impressed military men that orders for it were placed almost immediately. Mr. Harrington is now on leave from the University and is chief engineer of the Amphibian Car Corporation into which this project has grown. Many faculty members are associated with administrative and management officeson either a full- or part-time basis. In this group are ProfessorManly Fleischmann, LLB "33, Law School,on the legal staff of the O. P. M.; Dr. ShawLivermore,Assistant Dean of the Schoolof Business Administration, "trouble shooter" with the O. P. M.; Dr. Thomas L. Norton, economics professor, who has been executive secretary of the O. P. M.'s Shipbuilding Stabilization Committee;and Dr. John D. Sumner,economics professor, with the Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply. Research activities have claimed the attention of Dr. George W. Fiero,PharD '31, Pharmacy School,who is now working on the development of ointments for the prevention of dermatitis which results from the use of certain explosive materials in munitions plants; Dr. L. Grant Hector,physics professor, now at Carnegie Institute; and Dr. Howard F. Schultz,BA '33, MA '35, physics instructor,now at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In addition, Dr. Louis L. Taffeof Law Schoolhas been engaged in investigative work for the government and Dr. Edmund D. McGarry, professorof marketing and economics, has been acting as industrial consultant to the federal government. The following eight doctors of the Medical Schoolfaculty are now in positions in defenseprojects or in active service: Robert B. Carpenter, '34, William G. Ford, '33, Wilfred W. Fuge, Frank C Hoak, Jr., '36, OscarE. Hubbard,Eugene J. Lippschutz,Victor L. Pellicano,'36, and Nelson G. Russell,Jr. Various committees relating to defense have enlisted the services of other members of the faculty in numbers too large to be included here. �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 2 Alumni Serve Country In Far-Flung Posts The University of Buffalo is well represented by its alumni in practically all branches of service ranging from the training school teacher to the man on the minesweeper, from the flight surgeonto the intelligence agent. As a demonstration of their determined spirit in the faceof actual war, the day following Japan's attack saw the slogan, "Set the rising sun," originated by Sgt. Vito A. Grieco, Edß '39, become the war cry of the hospital unit to which he is attached. The latter part of this article is devoted to a list of all alumni known to be in service. It is to be hoped that their friends will doall in their power to make their military life as happy as it can be. To our knowledge, only one alumnus is serving with a foreign power. He is Lt. James D. MacCallum,MD '37, who responded to the plea of President Roosevelt in September, 1941,for Joctors to join the Red Crossunits for foreign service. He is now with the Royal Army Medical Corps in England. Two of our alumni are listed as stationed at positions which were attacked in the first engagements of the war: Lt. LaMovne C. Bleich,MD '39, Fort Stotsenburg, Philippine Islands;and Maj. John P. Bachman, MD '26, Honolulu, Hawaii. Probably one of the most strategic posts held bv alumni is that occupied by Maj. Hiram S.Yellen,MD '17, who is commanding the StationHospital at Kodiak Island, Alaska. A veteran of World War I, Maj. Yellen was recalled to active service at Fort Hancock on November I, 1940,and in May, 1941,was transferredto Alaska where the hospital staff under his able command included a score of physicians and surgeons and a corps of Red Crossnurses. Among the names given in the list will be found those of several nurses of whose activities we have been notified. One of them, 2nd Lt. Marie Monczynska, A. N. C, Nrs '38, is reported to be the first from Buffalo to enlist for active duty and also the first to enter the foreign service. Shewent to Iceland shortly after the beginning of her four-year enlistment period. Another group included in the list is that of four newly-appointed Field Directors of the American Red Cross.When the National Red CrossHeadquarters in Washington recently announced the appointment of 24 directors or assistant directors of field work in Red Crossmilitary and naval service, it was discovered that 10 were from Buffalo and that 4 of those 10 were U. B. graduates. One of the four, Franklin Z. Gatland,Soc '36, is Field Director for two air bases,one in Connecticutand the other in Massachusetts. While our information concerning the alumni in service is scanty, some facts concerning a few of them are available. John Lord O'Brian, LLB '98, holds the extremely important position of general counsel in the Legal Department of the Office of Production Management in Washington. First Lt. Bernard G. Geuting, MD '39, a "flying doctor" in the U. S. Navy, is believed to be one of the youngest flight surgeonsin the Navy. Sincethis is one of the most highly-specialized jobs in the service,it is a real distinction to qualify for such work. Capt. Roswell P. Rosengren, LLB "27, attached to the Washington Bureau of Public Relations, has been active in organizing and directing a speakers' bureau and has himself traveled over a good part of the country delivering speeches to various groups. At the District II meeting of the American Alumni Council, he gave a stirring address on military preparedness and defense activities. Robert J. Jantzen,BS (Bus) '38, who was graduated from the National Police Academy of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in October, 1940, is now active in the Intelligence Division of the Navy. Capt. William G. Cook, BS "27, Alumni Secretary still on leave of absence, EDITOR'S NOTE The list of names and addresses included in this article is bound by its very nature to be inaccurate and incomplete although it does contain all of the pertinent information in our possession. Any news concerning alumni and former students is always greatly appreciated and particularly so at this time. While records of non-graduates are not kept by the Alumni Office, the divisional secretaries are very much interested in following the careers of their former students. Kindly address all correspondence to The Alumni Office, Crosby Hall. is now enrolled for a three-months course in the Infantry Schoolat Fort Benning, leaving at least temporarily his post as public relations officer at Fort Dix.

IN MEMORIAM The first Buffalo casualty of which we know was mentioned in last month's issue of the Bulletin. Capt. Willem B. Wilton, Soc '37, whose death on October 17 resulted from injuries sustained in a jeep car accident near Pinehurst, North Carolina, died even before our entrance into active war. It is perhaps fitting, too, that we include a mention of Benjamin F. Hoffman, Naval Reserve aviation cadet who attended the Schoolof Business Administration from 1937-1940 and who was killed on November 3, when the training plane he was piloting crashed near Miami, Florida. a ALUMNI IN SERVICE Kodiak, Alaska: Maj.

Phillies,LLB '15, for Greece;and Victor B. Wylegala, LLB '19, for Poland. Each discussed his nationality's right and ability to live again as an individual group.

Russo,PhG card '28, were hostesses at a very successful party held at Colonial Hall in the early part of November.

Mulloy, PhG '18, president of the Pharmacy Alumni Association and secretary of the Western New York Retail Druggists' Association,presided at a joint meeting of these two groups on November 27. Jack Hammer, attorney for the New York StatePharmaceutical Association,discussed ramifications of recent federalexcise tax laws. Leslie C.

Kessler, educational director, and Miss Janet Scott. The scene was the headquarters of the Association and the discussion centered around the problems of hospitalization and rehabilitation of sufferers,new proposed programsfor mass examinations and other methods used in the detection and diagnosis of this disease. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Kelly, LLB '20, had been chosen as Mayor of his native Buffalo, thus verifying a statement made in 1920, when the following was inscribed beside his picture in the yearbook: "Reports have it that the eyes of City Hall and the Mayor's chair." Kis KELLY '20 classmates had elected him as senior class president, hence the reference to "pilot." Before entering Law School. Judge Kellyhad attended Lafayette High School, had been graduated from St. Joseph's Collegiate Institute and had spent a year at Manhattan College. Mayor-elect Kelly's predilection for politics is natural enough when it is recalled that his father, James W. Kelly, spent his last 40 years as a political leader of the West Side where the family established itself almost a century ago in 1842. Although he never held party office. Judge Kelly's activity in party affairs resulted in his appointment as chief of the trial staff in the district attorney's office in 1931. Two years later, he was elected for a 10-year term as an Associate Judge of the City Court where he discharged his duties wisely and well. As a result of a countrywide investigation he made, the Cafeteria Traffic Court was established. It proved so satisfactory that it has become the model after which many like courts have been patterned. An investigation showed that while Mayor-elect Kelly is the 47th person to be chosen for this office, he is only the third Buffalo graduate to be so distinguished. The other two are Conrad Diehl, Jr., MD '66, and George S. Buck, LLB '98, who held office from 1898-1901 and from 1918-21 respectively. Dr. Diehl was born in Buffalo in 1843 and, according to local records, outlived every member of his class by attaining the age of 75. Beginning his practice in Buffalo in 1868, he was an attending physician at the Erie County Hospital, a member of the staff of the General Hospital for 40 years and secretary of its board for 25 consecutive years, and in later life was on the staff of the German Deaconess Hospital. As mayor, he helped to revive an earlier plan for the Pan-American Exposition and invited many important guests to visit and take part in the proceedings which were held shortly after the conclusion of the Spanish War. George S. Buck was born in Chicago on February 10, 1875. After graduation from old Central High School, he obtained his BA degree at Yale in '96 and then returned to Buffalo for his law degree. He was elected to the Erie County Board of Supervisors in '03 and became chairman of the finance committee in '08. As mayor, he was faced with a threatened street car strike—a serious prospect because of the war munitions manufacture which would have been paralyzed. A peaceful settlement was negotiated after he traveled to Washington to obtain the assistance of an adjustor of labor problems. Later, the problems of rehabilitating demobilized men and of settling further labor difficulties occupied him. Upon his retirement as mayor, he became a director of the Buffalo City Planning Association, and in 1927, its managing director. Many other alumni were also successful in the recent November elections. Judge Christy J. Buscaglia, LLB '30, who had been appointed to the City Court in December, 1939, was returned to the position of Associate Judge as was also Judge Charles T. Yeager, LLB '25. who had been elected to this office in 1938. Among the City Councilmen chosen at this time were Willis G. Hickman, LLB '14, representing the Delaware District, and Ralph A. Lehr, LLB '24, from the North District. Bernard J. Dowd, PhG '20, and Walter L. M. Gibbs, LLB '30, were re-elected to the Erie County Board of Supervisors from the 22nd and 24th wards, respectively. The following three Supervisors were re-elected by their respective townships: Leslie F. Robinson, LLB '14, Aurora; Dudley A. Gaylord, LLB '18, North Collins; and Melvin L.

The largest enrollments of these students are in the Arts college where 21 registered, and in the schools of Medicine and Dentistry, each of which claims 12. Nineteen sons and one daughter enrolled in the professional schools plan to follow in the footsteps of their fathers. Of these, Carrol J. Shaver plans to enter the profession chosen by both parents, Grace Joslin Shaver, MD '15, and Ralla E. Shaver, MD '15 (deceased). Darwin C. Farber who entered the Arts college this fall is the sixth of his immediate family to attend the University. One brother, Sidney. BS. took his degree in 1923; a sister. Evelyn Farber Morgan, BA, and another brother, Seymour M., BS, received their degrees in 1931; and in 1933, Jason E.. MD, another brother, was awarded his degree. Still a fourth brother, Professor Marvin Farber, attended the University for a time but received his degrees elsewhere and is now back on the campus as head of the department of philosophy. The other student in the picture is William John T. Farber, Darwin C. Associate Judge of the City Court. His two brothers, John K., '33, and Paul J., '40, are also graduates of the Law division, so that he is the fourth member of his immediate family to prepare for the legal profession. The list below does not include 68 cousins, 49 uncles, 5 aunts, 1 sister-in-law, 1 great-uncle and 1 great-aunt of these and 58 other entering students. There may be other omissions caused perhaps by the failure of students to fill out the necessary forms. Relative Student Crissey, W. J. KEELER and D. C. FARBER J. Keeler of Law School. His father.

Lester "Deceased Pharmacy Week Noted The School of Pharmacy actively observed National Pharmacy week, October 19-25, by sponsoring student window displays, a series of radio programs and finally, a banquet followed by a special program. As a climax to the activities came the announcement of the creation of several scholarships from the loan fund established under the will of William C. Dambach. The accumulation of a surplus in this fund and a decrease in the number of requests led to the decision to grant scholarships to students whose scholastic records are high, who have engaged in extra-curricular activities and who have displayed qualities of leadership. These scholarships may pay a total of $800—$200 a year for four years—if a satisfactory standard of work is maintained. The announcement which was made on October 24, the day of the banquet, was particularly timely since superior students from the local academic high schools had been invited to the dinner as guests of faculty members. After the banquet, which was held in Norton Hall, the guests were conducted on a tour of Foster Hall where many interesting exhibits had been prepared by the Pharmacy Students to demonstrate their ability as future pharmacists.

Checks sent to the Alumni office in payment for tickets, should be made out to the Alumni Activities Committee. With a squad of 30, Coach Jim Peelle, never one to be overconfident, shows a bit of optimism this year. The complete squad and coaching staff spent the second two weeks of September in the pre-season football camp at Pt. Abino, Ontario. This camp is sponsored by William C. Baird. In their opening game the Buffalo team showed up well on offense, with Art Woelfle of Dunkirk, and Vic Mancewciz bearing the brunt of the ball carrying. It was the defensive strength of the team, however, that opened the eyes of the spectators. The team from Pennsylvania wasn't able to make a first down until the fourth quarter, and it was then that Peelle was putting in the substitutes. The forward wall with game captain Sid Snyder, Nick Kish of North Tonawanda, Nick Yacobucci of Blasdell, Dom Grossi of Lockport, and Harold Rambath gave the spectators much to talk about. They are a few of the boys to watch, and were instrumental in running up a total of 18 first downs to Susquehanna's three. Asst. Coach Febel Kelsey H.

For the first time in the six year history of the fund, the 1941 class has not restricted its gift. The entire amount will be given for unrestricted endowment. Prior to this time several of the divisions have ear-marked their gift for their particular college. The original plan called for an annual gift of Si for the five years after graduation. In three instances seniors have pledged to contribute more than this amount and have been very prompt in the payments. When the cards for the 1941 class were checked the committee found that four seniors had pledged to pay $2 a year and six had pledged to pay $5 a year. This sets an all time high.

Nurse Program Enlarged In an effort to meet specific nursing needs brought to the forefront directly and indirectly by the national defense program, the School of Nursing this year will place special emphasis on three newly accredited courses public health nursing, physical therapy and school nursing. The public health nursing program has just been approved by the National Organization for Public Health Nursing, the accrediting agency for the United States. Buffalo is the 27th school to receive such approval. It is offering both a full program leading to a bachelor of science degree and a one-year course leading to a certificate. Courses of study are also offered in orthopedic nursing. The physical therapy and schol nursing programs were approved in the spring. Anne Walker Sengbusch, BS (Nrs) '35, EdM '39, director, announced that the school is cooperating with the National Research Council in a nation wide plan to extend physical therapy courses and thus provide expert technicians needed in government hospitals, the army and navy, Veterans' Administration and other hospitals and clinics. A recent survey shows an immediate shortage of 500 trained workers and a probable shortage of 1200 for the next two years in this field. Expansion in these courses is aimed to offer graduate nurses of this area opportunity to specialize. This enlargement of offerings in no way interferes with the regular program for the training of nurses. — CARNEGIE INSTITUTE CALLS HECTOR Dr. L.

On Baccalaureate Sunday. June 8, Chancellor Capen addressed the Class of 1941 and told them that: "America requires more than willing defenders. Ninetenths of its citizens are always such. It requires also many informed defenders; the interpreters of its achievements and its purposes. This is the special service to which you are summoned, you and all other men and women who have received our country's finest gift to its children, an advanced education." The Chancellor pointed out that free men and women "thrive best when they are asked to live beyond themselves, when ihe challenge of their environment is s'o "urgent that their second wind must be tapped in order to cope with it." "Destiny," he concluded, "has decreed that we Americans shall once more be tested; that we shall once more have to prove that the strength which was in our fathers to endure and to perform prodigies in a cause held sacred is in us, too. It is for us to meet the test with a high heart." Wednesday, June 11, the candidates for degrees, followed by the faculty and council assembled on the walks of the Kleinhans Music hall to form the colorful parade which is the University's biggest annual spectacle. They stood with bowed heads in the impressive modern auditorium while the Reverend Chester T. R. Yeates pronounced the invocation; they sang "America," then relaxed in their seats to hear Chancellor Capen introduce the youngest justice on the New York State Court of Appeals, Charles S. Desmond, LL B '20, the first alumnus to address a University Commencement. Justice Desmond emphasized that "peace needs the kind of planning that war gets," and that the youth of America must be told now that, if it fights, it will fight not only against Hitlerism, but for a peace "good and lasting," a peace "based on truth, fraternal solidarity, social justice and moral sincerity." He went on to say that "this time we fight—if fight we do—let us take the road to war more sure and more clearly assured of what the peace will be and what it is we fight for. "You are Americans. Be alert and ready for whatever call comes to you from the country which has been so good to all of us. Don't be afraid to speak your mind in the national debate, but when the decision comes, accept it patriotically as have the men and women of this university all down the years." Amid applause Dr. Capen then presented the following diplomas and certificates: doctor of medicine, 66; commission of first lieutenant, Medical Officers Reserve Corps, 12, bachelor of science in nursing, two; bachelor of science in pharmacy, 16; master of science in pharmacy, one; bachelor of laws, 32; doctor of dental surgery, 39; certificate in engineering, one; bachelor of fine arts, one; bachelor of arts, 72; bachelor of library science, 17; master of arts, 16; doctor of philosophy, two, both in chemistry; diploma in business administration, two; certificate in business administration, two; bachelor of science (in the School of Business Administration), 40; certificate in teaching the deaf, 11; bachelor of education, 17; master of education, 20; graduate certificate in social work, 29; master of social service, eight. Then the new alumni sang the University of Buffalo "Chorale" (words and music by Philip Becker Goetz), heard the benediction and filed from the auditorium to take their places as educated men and women in a changing world. The University's 95th year was officially closed and the final quinquenniad prior to the 100th anniversary was entered."

The program in industrial technology, embracing combined training in engineering, science and business, will lead to a bachelor of science degree in industrial technology. A special two-year program with specialization in engineering will lead to a certificate in arts and sciences. The industrial technology program will be directed by Herbert P. Fullerton, assistant professor of engineering. Devised primarily to meet the increased demand for trained industrial technologists resulting from the national defense program, the curriculum will embrace four years of study in courses ranging from the technical to the economic, from themodynamics and hydraulics to corporation law and business cycles. "The University feels that a program of this type will appeal to many students who desire combined training in engineering and science on the one hand, and business problems and practices on the other, as preparation for a career in industry," Mr. Fullerton stated. The program was worked out by a special faculty committee which conferred with a number of prominent local industrialists, including Earl T. Pughe, local manager of the Chevrolet Motors Corp.; Ralph H. Peo, vice president—general manager of the Houde Engineering Corp.; Edwin J. Schwanhausser, vice president of the Worthington Pump & Machinery Corp.; and Burton K. Witherspoon, president of the Spencer Lens Co. The faculty committee was headed by Dr. Harry M. Gehman, acting chairman of the engineering department. A requirement of the program will be that students acquire practical experience by working for a period in approved jobs in industry. The program is intended primarily for full-time day students, but it can be completed also by Millard Fillmore College students in the evening, and by those in the Work-Study Plan. The two year program, leading to the certificate in arts and sciences, will provide basic training for students desirous of enThe tering the engineering profession. courses included are recognized by the University of Michigan and other engineering schools. Dr. Gehman disclosed receipt of the following statement from Michigan: "The program of the first two years in engineering at the University of Buffalo closely parallels that of the University of Michigan and it is possible for a student who completes the two-year program at the University of Buffalo to transfer to the University of Michigan without loss of credit. Each student, of course, must meet the high school admission requirements of the University of Michigan and maintain a satisfactory scholastic record in the courses taken at the University of Buffalo in order to effect the transfer."

'35, EdM '39, director. The school nursing program has been approved by the State Education Department and the one-year course in physical therapy by the Council tm Hospitals and Medical Education of the American Medical Association. The school nursing program is a oneyear course of classwork and field experience. It was started three years ago for registered nurses desirous of becoming school nurses. Before the program was endorsed it was necessary for each individual to obtain the State Education Department's approval before starting the course. Now, however, when the course is completed the individual merely files application with the Education Department and automatically receives a certificate. Mrs. Sengbusch said that there is tremendous demand for school nurses. In the course they receive class instruction in public health nursing, family case work, educational principles and psychology, mental hygiene and nutrition. The field work is taken at the Visiting Nursing Association in Buffalo, the Cattaraugus County Health Department in Olean and Kenmore High Schools. The one-year course in physical therapy leads to a certificate. It is open to registered nurses, graduates of approved schools of physical education and other students with a minimum of two years of college study. The course includes both classwork and field experience. The nursing school's three-year course in that is. with physical physical therapy has been approved therapy as a major for three years. Both the school of nursing and the oneyear physical therapy courses will be available in the forthcoming Summer Session as well as in the regular year. —— sion have high votes, the person with a lesser number of votes will be dropped from the list, and the nexr in line from some other division will be moved up. There will be three intra-school contests represented this year. In Arts, Law and Medicine there will be two-cornered races. Business and Dentistry have only one nominee. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Scholarships Created The Lorin James Woodruff Scholarships have been established from the $50,000 bequest of Mrs. Amelia S. Woodruff to the university to assist undergraduate students in the College of Arts and Sciences who rate high in scholastic attainment, character and qualities of leadership, to finance their education.

The. fund, creating and permanently endowing the scholarships in the name of Mrs. Woodruff's husband, becomes immediately available and through it five scholarships will be awarded to Arts College undergraduates beginning next fall. Each scholarship will be equivalent in amount to the entire year's tuition fee. Provision is made that the University's Committee on Scholarships and Loans, in its discretion, may re-award the scholarships annually to the holders if they maintain a satisfactory scholastic standing. It is within the committee's authority to award these scholarships annually to any holder throughout his or her entire undergraduate course. The scholarships will be open to any undergraduates freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors. Amelia S. Woodruff was a native of the town of Eden and her grandfather. Dr. William Pratt, was the first physician to locate in Eden. A graduate of the old Buffalo State Normal School, she taught at one time in Springville Academy and subsequently in lowa and Nebraska, there meeting her husband. Lorin James Woodruff. Mr. Woodruff was Superintendent of Schools in Nebraska.

New EdB in Physical Ed Undergraduate preparation for teachers of physical education in elementary and secondary schools is now to be offered to students by the School of Education. Previously, only students with undergraduate preparation at other institutions could receive graduate instruction in physical education, leading to the degree of master of education, at the University of Buffalo. With the new Clark Memorial Gymnasium it is now possible for the University to add complete preparation for teachers of health, physical education, recreation and occupational and physical therapy to its schedule. The physical therapy program, in which the Schools of Education and Nursing cooperate, already has been approved by the Council of Hospital and Medical Education of the American Medical Association. Included in the new program are the specific minimum courses required for state certification, details of which will be developed in consultation with state educational authorities. The four-year minimum program will lead to the degree of bachelor of education in physical education. In the specializations requiring five years of preparation including teaching sciences in secondary schools, recreation, occupational and physical therapy, and the administration and supervision of health, physical education and recreation in schools and school systems, the programs will lead to the degree of master of education. The School of Education staff will be enlarged at once by the appointment of professional workers as consultants, thus assuring a close relationship between the program and the practical problems of teaching in the field. Provision also has been made for full-time additions to the staff for courses beginning next year and as advance courses need to be offered, and for an advisory committee to assist in the development of the program. Except in physical therapy, the program now is open only to freshmen. In physical therapy, students with their undergraduate preparation for physical education will be accepted for the one-year certificate course. "With the increased attention to health as a vital element in the defense program, the enlargement of the University's services in this field is in keeping with its policy of meeting community needs," Dean L. O. Cummings of the School of Education asserted. — GOLD AWARDS FOR SERVICE Gold keys for 50 years or more in the practice of medicine were awarded to Alice Ross Bennett, MD '90. and Jeanette P.

Long, MD "82, 59 years an alumnus and 57 years a teacher at the Main speaker of the evening was Hugh C. Muldoon, Dean of Pharmacy at Duquesne University, whose address "Pharmacists Must Fight" was not directed toward the present national and international situation, but toward the crusade that pharmacists must carry on to drive out the undesirables who exploit pharmacy and bring discredit to the profession. In charge of Pharmacy alumni affairs for the next year will be Charles F. Mulloy, '18, president; Clinton E. Van Slyke, '25, vicepresident; and Janet H. Bowen, '21, reelected secretary-treasurer. CAPEN'S DEFENSE STATEMENT URGES MEN TO CONTINUE STUDY In a recent letter to all men students Chancellor Capen advised them of such information as the officers of the University have concerning the relation of university students to the draft. The United States is in need of trained specialists the message stated, and continued, "I cannot too strongly urge you to continue your studies if you can possibly do so. I say this to you not for the sake of the University and not to spare you as individuals the temporary interruption of the careers you have laid out for yourselves. I say it in the interest of the national welfare. You can perform no more patriotic service than to continue to prepare yourselves for your respective specialties, until you are actually called to join the armed forces." Dr. Capen advised each student, when he receives his questionnaire from his local board, to obtain two copies of a form from his dean to be used to inform the board of his academic status and vocational objectives. One copy of the form is to be sent to the local board, the other to the Trichina Test Devised Fellowships Awarded A new test for the specific diagnosing of trichinosis from the blood has been developed by Dr. Ernest Witebsky, associate professor of bacteriology and serology at the Medical School and bacteriologist at the General Hospital. The new method, developed in collaboration with Philip B. Wels, BA '37, MA '39, senior student, and Miss Anne Heide, technician, is a test tube technique, similar to the Wasserman test for syphilis. Trichinosis, a disease resulting from the into the taking of trichina a worm body through poorly cooked meat, especially pork, heretofore has been particularly difficult to diagnose. It has been necessary to remove a piece of to use biopsy muscle from the patient and put it under a microscope, there to look for the worms (trichina larvae). A skin test also has been used. The new test is very specific and brings no false positive results. Known as a complement-fixation test, it involves the taking of 5-to-10 cubic centimeters of blood from the patient. This is permitted to coagulate. The serum then is mixed with an extract of trichina larvae. The reaction within a few hours determines whether trichinosis is present. The trichina larvae extract is prepared from infested rats. The test is significant in view of the fact that, according to record, 20 per cent of the population one of every five persons is infected with trichinosis. The clinical symptoms are not always manifested and many people are unaware of having the disease, a factor which makes it especially difficult to diagnose. Post-mortems indicate its prevalence. Award of the university's first two fellowships in its 95-year history was announced by Chancellor Samuel P. Capen. Harry M. Norton, a graduate assistant in the university's chemistry department, and Frank W. Tober, a teaching fellow at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Blacksburg, Va., are the recipients. The graduate fellowships in chemistry are a gift of the Buffalo Electro-Chemical Co., Inc. Each holder will receive $1000 to enable him to devote all his time for the next academic year, beginning in September, to research work for the doctor of phi- — — — — — dean, following which the university will make out an affidavit, including a statement on the student's academic record and the recommendation of the university's officers concerning his deferment, and will send the affidavit directly to the local board. losophy degree. The fellowships will free their recipients from teaching duties so that they may engage entirely in research. They are designed to increase the output of research work in the university's chemical laboratories and to bring additional well-qualified chemical graduates into the university and the Niagara Frontier. Five Chemists Placed Three graduate assistants and two undergraduates in the Department of Chemistry have received notice of appointments for next year. John Beiswanger, candidate for the doctor of philosophy degree has accepted a post-doctoral research fellowship at Northwestern university, and James T. Eberl, who will also receive his PhD, is going to the University of Delaware as instructor in chemistry. Gerhart R. Hennig, master's candidate, is the recipient of a graduate assistantship in chemistry at Columbia. John F. Pudvin and Russell R. Williams, Jr.. who will receive their BA degrees this June, will serve as graduate assistants in chemistry at the University of Buffalo and Stanford university, Calif., respectively. �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 4 THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI BULLETIN Published monthly except July, August and September, by the University of Buffalo at 3435 Main Street.

APRIL, 1941 No. 3 U. B. Offers Secretarial Training Courses For Women Aimed To Meet Demand The College of Arts and Sciences has announced a new programfor the training of women in the secretarial profession. In setting up the secretarial training program the University of Buffalo is endeavoring to fill the needs of an increasing percentage of young people whose destiny is not in the professions, research or scholarship, but in business or public service. Dean Julian Park explained. The dean pointed out that as manyas 70 per cent of all young people desire to enter the professional and semi-professional fields, but only about 15 per cent can be thus absorbed,while, on the other hand,the demand for competent secretarial work is constantly increasing, both in the commercial world and in civil service. The secretarial program is arranged on leading to the a two or four-year schedule, bachelor's degree for four years' study or the certificatein arts and sciences for two years' study. The program.Dean Park declared,is designed to meet the needs of three general groups:candidates for the BA degree desiring to supplement their general academic education with secretarial training in order to equip themselves for business or other public careers; high school graduates who can afford to take only two years of college, combining some academic work with their secretarial courses; high school graduates who wish to use secretarial training in subsequent employment to financetheir last two years of college. "Colleges," stated the dean, "have failed to provide vocational training for valuable types of service employing hundreds of thousands—vocations for which more than a high school education is desirable and yet which do not require in all cases a standardized four-year college preparation. "If. we are to continue our democratic philosophy of education and provide educational opportunityfor all youth at all levels, the program of higher education must include the needs of an increasing percentage of those whose destiny is not in one of the professions nor yet in a career of research or scholarship, but in business or public service. "The Personnel officeof the University of Buffalo has been able to place practically any college graduate who has had training in shorthand and typing. This is not surprising since a college education assures the employer, in most cases, of a correct use of the English language, an intelligent attack on the problems of his business,and originality, adaptibility. and initiative. "Employment bureaus report that too many college graduates, though personable and interesting, have nothing definitethat they can do. Secretarially trained college women get promotions more quickly than others; furthermore, college training frequently allows them to advance to office managerships, supervisory positions, and responsible executive posts. "For example, girls who have had, in addition to stenography, proper training in medical or scientificterminology, can find interesting positions. A working knowledge of a foreign language, particularly Spanish, is sometimes called for by firms doing some exporting. Someknowledge of chemistry, French DC German,together with shorthand and typing, and certain courses in bibliography, form a combination which leads to librarianships in chemical industries." Classes Move Up May 3rd The senior class is in the throes of final preparation for a last round of activity before comprehensives and commencement. The traditional senior week begins Monday, April 28 with Rose Day. On Tuesday the seniors in cap and gownand the faculty in academic robes will procede from Crosby hall to Edmund Hayes where the planting of the ivy, symbol of devotion, is to take place. After the ceremonies the faculty will have a reception for the class in Norton hall. At noon on Wednesday the graduates meet for luncheon in Norton. Moving Up Day, Saturday, May 3 will climax the week. The parade of floatswill leave the Terrace at 10 o'clock. Proceeding north on Main St. to the campus, the participants will congregate in Norton about noon for the awarding of prizes, keys and presentation of the May queen. The judges for the parade awards will be William C Baird, Mrs. Norman P. Clement.Associate Secretary of the University, Vincent R. McFaul and Roswell P. Rosengren, LLB '27. �2 Summer Session Offerings—Varied And Timely UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 1941 Program Opens With Registration July 7th The SummerSessionhas two major activities. It serves various other divisions of the University in offering regular courses needed by students in different programs of study. It also carries on projects which are peculiarly its own and provides opportunities made possible because of the short session and the season. Classesout of doors,field trips, Friday evening dances, picnics on the campus and at the neighboring beaches and parks give SummerSessionstudents advantages which only summer permits. The uses of the summer period by stu- dents varied. It can be used to make up work that has been lost by absence or failure. It serves to prepare for more advanced study in the academic year. For some students it offersrelaxation, for others a regaining of confidence,a renewal of morale. Of the opportunities available only in the SummerSessionmay be mentioned rhe courses in art, the Cooperative Youth Groups, the Assembly series of lectures, the Visual Aids Laboratory and timely courses. Timely Courses The courses which have particular bear ing on our present problems at home and in the world at large include: Acoustical Engineering. Conservation. Military Sanitation, Labor and Industrial Relations, Economic Problems in World Affairs, Public Finance and Taxation, Meteorology, American Expansion in the Far East and the Caribbean.Great European Crises,Education Through Healthful Living, Nutrition, Radio Engineering, The Sociology of War and Peace. Spanish. The Assembly theme also contributes to an understanding of our responsibilities in the present world situation—The Growth of Free Institutions in j Changing World. There will be two series of lectures and discussions, one The Role of the Art* and Sciences, and the other The Role of Education. Other New Courses Among other new courses to be offered this summer are: Sketching from the Costumed Model, Painting from the Costumed Figure. Modern Mural Painting. Survey of Renaissance Italian Painting from a Modern Viewpoint, Supervised Practice in School Nursing, Teaching Methods in Visual Education,Organization and Administration of Compulsory Education Procedures and Choral Conducting. A laboratory for the study of recent developments in secondary education will be under the direction of Professors Land and Drake, who will be assisted by other memproblems of staff. on which bers the The students will work will include such applications to the development of secondary schools as will meet individual needs. The procedures will include opportunities for individual consultation,work in small and in large groups,observation in the Cooperative Youth Group classes, visits to off- educational institutions and library research. It is planned to develop with a selected group of high school pupils a programof study to exemplify newer curricular practices in a coordinated programon the high school level. This group will be closely associated with the laboratory and will be available for observation and participation by laboratory members. New Instructors Mr. Lewis Rubenstein will give a course in the history of art and one in mural painting. A graduate of Harvard with two years study of painting in Europe on a traveling fellowship, Mr. Rubenstein brings a practical experience from important commissions. He has done frescoesfor the Fogg Museum and the GermanicMuseum in Cambridge and assisted Orozco on a frescofor the the Modern Museum in New York City. His teaching experience includes frescocourses at the Boston Museum Schooland the New England Federal Art Project, demonstration lectures on fresco painting at various museums, art schools and colleges, and instruction at Vassar colcampus The sprays keep the Campus green are Tennis helps in keeping fit lege. The Campus attracts the artists Children in the Cooperative Group add life Classes out of doors are comfortable The University is bringing an artist of established reputation in Mr. Harry LeithRoss of New Hope. Pa.,who will give instruction in water color. His membership in water color clubs in important centers in the East, his election as Associate of the National Academy in 1928 and Academician in 1936. and the numerous awards and prizes which Mr. Leith-Ross has received indicate the position which he has won. Taken with' his extended experience in teaching in summer schools and other courses which he has conducted,these evidences of his attainment assure students of association with an instructor who appreciates their problems and who can point the way from experience to success in a chosen field. Among other instructors who are new to the SummerSessionare: Dr. W. Lloyd Sprouse, visitingLecturer in Educational Administration ; Miss CandaceDoelman, Lecturer in Education, Public Schools, Middleport, N.

Sears,eminent jurist for 24 years, who retired Dec. 31 as associate judge of of the New York Court of Appeals. The award of the medal highlighted mid-year commencement and alumni activities on Feb. 22. Over the airwaves went the words as the commencement exercises were broadcast this year for the first time through the courtesy of WEBR which ran a special line to the campus and of ASCAP, whose special permission was necessary for the inclusion of several musical selections on the program. A native of Brooklyn, Judge Sears, was graduated from the Adelphi academy there and Yale university. He studied at the University of Berlin and took his LLB degree at Harvard in 1896.

The medal was accepted for Judge Sears, who was unable to be present, by his brother-in-law,Lester F. Gilbert. Only Honorary Award The Chancellor'sMedal was provided for in the will of the late ChancellorCharles P. Norton, head of the university from 1905 to 1920, and was given for the 14th time this year. It is intended "to personify civic patriotism and to vivify public service in the eyes of the citizens of Buffalo."' The donor definedpublic service in the broadest of terms to include meritorious achievement in science, letters and the arts, as well as politics and civic affairs. "It is evident that his primary intent, however,"ChancellorCapen said in making the award,"was to empower the university to single out for public commendation those who had conspicuously served the body politic in enterprises which affected its corporate life." ■'Accordingly." he continued, "the council has most frequently awarded the medal to persons who have contributed notably to the improvement of the social facilities of the community. It does so once more this year." Thus Judge Searsjoined the companyof distinguished citizens upon whom the university has bestowed its only honorary award. A few days later he was named by Attorney GeneralRobert H. Jackson to preside at the deportation hearing for Harry R. Bridges, West CoastC L O. leader, was toastmaster.

A. A. and Alumni Council Looms New Constitution Ready for Adoption When two businesses engaged in the same territory, manufacturing a similar product, employing the same sales appeal, maintaining separate but similar establishments and selling to a public that cannot decide which is the better merchandise but buys a little of each, they sometimes merge. Two central alumni organizations have existed side by side at Buffalo for the last six and a half years. The General Alumni association has had no membership since it ceased charging dues at the onset of the Threadbare Thirties, but its board of trustees has continued to meet, elect officers, plan and carry out alumni dinners. The Alumni council, founded in 1933, also has met frequently and carried on business under its by-laws. The association, without dues, has had no income. The Alumni council has had an annual subsidy from the university treasury. Realization has come gradually to leaders of the two groups that there is a similarity of objectives, an overlapping of functions. an identity of constituency (the whole alumni body) and some duplication of ef fort. Typical case was the Alumni Swim ming Pool campaign which the two bodies Bnally decided to sponsor jointly. First signs of a trend toward a mergei appeared in the General Alumni associatior in 1938, when the board of trustees agreed on a need for simplification and empowered President Jane C. O'Malley, DDS '23 to appoint a committee to study the problem and prepare a plan. To the committee chairmanship Dr O'Malley appointed Homer A. Trotter. PhG '09, MD '15; to its membership, seven representatives of the divisional associations All winter and spring the Trotter committee worked, finally presented a plan to the board. Its main feature: To merge the GAA board of trustees with the Alumni council. (See page 3). The trustees thought it simple, yet so bold they hesitated to proffer it to the Alumni council. In June, 1939, Francis D. Leopold, MD '14 was elected president and the board directed him to seek the cooperation of the Alumni council in simplify ing the alumni structure and establishing a program of general interest ate body. to the gradu- Meanwhile the Alumni council had had the problem under discussion. It had appointed a committee to meet with one from the GAA for the purpose of finding methods of stimulating alumni activity. This joint committee's recommendations did not get at the root of the matter. At the June meeting of the Alumni council. James E. King, MD '96 was elected council chairman. Shortly thereafter he appointed a committee on alumni study headed by Judge Victor B. Wylegala, LLB '19. By fall Judge Wylegala's committee had a plan. Its main feature: To merge the GAA board of trustees with the Alumni council. (Seepage 3). The Alumni council went a step beyond the GAA when it formally approved the plan in principle. Next it was laid before the divisional alumni presidents. They gave it their personal approval, and the next step was up to the GAA. That step came swiftly. Early in February- the GAA trustees met, took the Trotter plan from the table and gave it their approval. They then directed President Leopold to appoint a constitution committee to meet with a similar committee from the Alumni council. Next day Alumni Council Chairman King appointed his committee, and a few days later the new rules and regulations were being drawn up for submission at a joint meeting of the two main bodies, scheduled for University day, the 25th anniversary of the GAA's founding. The new constitution committee includes the following: From the GAA, Dr. Leopold, Richard W. Collard, BS (Bus) '35; Claire Marquardt, BA '31; Riley P. O'Brien, BS (Bus) '35; George E. Slotkin. MD "11; from the Alumni council, Judge Wylegala, Dr. King, Leon J. Gauchat, DDS '19; Dean A. Bertram Lemon, PhG '13; Thew Wright, MD '03. Alumni Secretary William G. Cook, BS '27 is committee secretary. Main difference between the two plans is in the name. The Trotter plan would call the new body the Alumni federation. The Wylegala plan would call it the General Alumni council. In these respects they agree: The new body should include representatives of the divisional alumni associations, the out-of-town clubs and the University council. It should sponsor general alumni programs, publish a monthly bulletin, supervise the Alumni office, encourage the work of the constituent alumni groups. It should be financed by the university, out of the income from an annual Alumni Loyalty fund. Neither plan would interfere with the autonomy of the divisional alumni associations and the Alumni Club, Inc. These would still carry on their own programs and maintain such system of dues or other methods of financing as are now in force. Final approval of the new plan must still be sought from the University council, from which both the present bodies derive their authority. TO GO WEST Dr. Fritz Machlup, professor of economics, has been invited to serve as visiting professor of economics at Stanford university in California, next summer. This will be the fifth university Dr. Machlup has served in that capacity. The others were Harvard, Cornell, Northwestern and the University of California in Berkeley.

Dr. Trotter Says PRESENT CONFUSION .. . What are the faults of the present system? They may be summarized as follows: 1. Confusion. Very few alumni understand the present system, and where there is no understanding there is no interest. The individual knows what his divisional association stands for. since it is formed along natural lines. But from that point on it is too much for him to figure out. He hears of a General Alumni association, an Alumni council, an Alumni Club, Inc. "Which is the official body?" he asks. "What should I as an alumni worker, give my support to?" And he knows no answer. 2. Morale. An effective alumni pro- begets pride in its supporters. It knits them together as a body, and delivers ever increasing loyalty to the object of their gram affection—their Alma Mater. Will not the alumni have greater respect for an alumni organization which holds public gatherings, represents the alumni viewpoint at court, whose leaders and supporters understand it and their part in it? 3. Finances. No doubt the General Alumni association could undertake an in- teresting and effective program if it had adequate financing. But to attempt to collect dues again would be to return to the old evil of double billing, and with the Alumni Cub, Inc., now charging separate dues, each alumnus would be subject to three appeals a year. 4. General. In brief, there are probably too many alumni organizations now, overlapping each other to some extent, and often approaching the point of rivalry. The General Alumni association is an associa- tion in name only. It really consists of a board of trustees and nothing more. If the system could be simplified, alumni interest would be easier to capture. If the alumni in general could be brought into closer participation with the management of the alumni fund, alumni office and alumni publication, even though the university retained partial control, alumni morale woud be easier to build. If finances could be centralized, the potential income would be greater, the program could be enlarged, and all participating organizations, including the university, would benefit. Judge Wylegala Says . . . The average alumnus is so confused about it that he has now confined his support to the one or two things he can understand: His divisional association which gives him a program of professional interest and benefit, and the Alumni Club, Inc., which offers him a social program. He usually does now know the difference between the General Alumni association and the Alumni council; he is confused about their officers, mechanical operation and objectives; he does not have a sensation of being part of one big family of graduates doing something important for their Alma Mater. The faults of the present system may be summed up as follows: A. Lack of income for the General Alumni association, whose trustees realize that there is little hope of returning to a dues system, and have as yet not found any other method of financing their activities. B. Lack of interest in the General Alumni association, because of its inability to conduct a program. C. Lack of co-ordination. D. Lack of understanding, which breeds dissatisfaction with the whole machinery. E. Lack of morale because of the feeling of separation from the university, of unimportance to it and of inability to be a part of its operation. F. Lack of loyalty as a natural consequence of the above causes. What has this or any university the right to expect of an alumnus? If we may judge by other institutions, that expectation has four aspects: 1. He shall be successful in his chosen field, and a good citizen. He reflects credit on his Alma Mater by his own achievements. 2. He shall be interested in his uni- versity. He shall understand its aims and methods, support its policies and defend its good name. 3. He sha'l serve it in such ways as he can, as by encouraging good students to attend, or by activity on its committees, volunteer faculties or governing body. 4. He shall, as his means permit, give material support. The alumni do not get that way by accident. There must be a plan which makes them that way. The University of Buffalo does its best to see that each graduate qualifies on Point No. 1, and through its publicity media it does something on Point No. 2. But more must be done to instill feelings of gratitude, respect, loyalty and enthusiasm before the third and fourth aspects shall be developed satisfactorily. A re-organization of the alumni structure is indicated. �3 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN . . The Proposed New Organization PROPOSED SOLUTION The Wylegala Plan It is recommended that the board of trusthe General Alumni association and the Alumni council be merged into one central body. For purposes of discussion we shall call it here the General Alumni council. The General Alumni council would be made up as follows: Delegates from the eight divisional alumni associations Delegates from the district clubs Alumni delegates chosen by the University council from its own memtees of bership The General Alumni council would elect its own officers and name its committees. The objects would be: 1. To encourage and assist the alumni associations and clubs. 2. To provide for active participation of the individual alumnus in the advisory and management aspects of the university. 3. To provide avenues for material assistance to the university. Included among the activities of the General Alumni council, to be carried on by committees in co-operation with various university officers, would be: 1. Stimulation of interest in elections to the University council. 2. Student relations. 3. Preservation of traditions. 4. Vocational advisory services. 5. Preparatory school relations (student Presentation of alumni achievement awards. 9. Commencementreunions. 10. Alumni fund raising (including acting as a clearing house for all alumni S. money appeals). 11. Co-ordination and stimulation of divisional association activity, including that of the Alumnae association. 12. Stimulation of class activity. Victor B. Wylegala, LLB '19 Chairman Leon J. Gauchat, DDS '19 Lemon, A. Bertram PhG '13 Thew Wright, MD '03 The Trotter Plan We recommend that the present Alumni council and the present General Alumni association be merged to form a central agency to be known as the Alumni federation. This body would thus include the alumni members of the University council, and the chosen representatives of the various divisional associations. We also recommend that each branch (out-of-town) club be allowed to add one representative for each 100 members. Thus the central agency would be truly representative of all interested groups and in its own name could conduct programs social or philanthropic. Since it would operate the Alumni fund, thus contributing to the university's income, it could justly call upon the Alumni office for services in recruiting). carrying out its program, and its publication could be expanded in size and be more 6.

In his will Benefactor Sherman directed that the money should be "expended for erection of a new medical school building" to be known as DeWitt Sherman hall. The money will not be available at once, since the estate was left in trust for his widow. Mrs. Jessica Anthony Sherman. After her death a new trust will be set up under which the new building will be erected. Many observers estimated that 5225,000 would not be sufficient to put up a first class Medical school building. But within a few days after Dr. Shermans will was admitted to probate. Mrs. Sherman announced that she had made a gift to the . university of 5200.000 to be used for the purpose. Her deed of gift coincides with her husband's will in specifying that, if in the meantime, such a building shall have been erected, then the entire amount shall be used as a foundation for medical teaching. same Two Europeans Arrive Two Europeans fresh from the war zone will spend the next few months on the university campus.

Gehman of the mathematics department as acting head, was announced late in December by Chancellor Capen. Other faculty members of the new department are Assistant Professor Carlos E. Harrington who has been teaching in the Arts College since 1920; and Herbert P. Fullerton of the American Engineering corporation of Cleveland, 0., who has been appointed assistant professor of engineering. The engineering department has been evolved out of a preparatory engineering curriculum which had its beginnings in 1924. At first consisting of only a year of work, it later developed into a twoyear program, on the basis of which many students have been transferred with advanced standing to leading engineering schools of the East. Sixteen per cent of this year's Arts freshman are registered in the engineering curriculum. For the benefit of draftsmen and industrial workers employed during the day, since 1932 the university has offered many of its engineering courses in the evening. To qualified students who complete this curriculum and are not interested in continuing for their degrees at other institutions, the university grants a certificate in engineering. Twelve of the certificates have been awarded. The recent inauguration of a specialized 64-week national defense training program. together with the increased demand for general engineering courses in Buffalo, has necessitated the expansion in the engineering program and the establishment of the new deDr. Gehman came DR.

Whether the country will actually become involved in the war now raging abroad, no one can surely predict. At all events opinion is nearly unanimous that the United States should be prepared with men,.-supplies, and fighting machines to withstand any attack that might be launched *against it. All social institutions are bound to be affected, universities along with the others. Indeed, where national defense t— or offense is concerned, universities are close to the first line. They have always been in that position, and it does not appear that the novel conditions of modern war have altered either their responsibilities or the dangers to which they are subject. It is incumbent upon all members of the University of Buffalo, trustees, teachers, and students, to face these facts. What are some of the effects that we in common with other universities may anticipate from the new trend of national effort ? The enrollment of universities is peculiarly vulnerable in time of war or of preparation for defense. A large percentage of the male students of universities belongs to the age group upon which the first burden of military service falls. The Selective Service Act of 1940 specifically defers the drafting of college and university students until the end of the academic year 1940-1941, but there is no assurance that the deferment will be continued beyond next July. There seems no prospect that the colleges and universities will be used, as they finally were in 1918, for the wholesale training of officers for the army. Army plans now provide for the training of additional officers at regular officers' training camps. The only academic institutions that may expect to participate in the program of officer training are those in which units of the Reserve Officers Training Corps or the Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps are now established. Hence by July. 1941, the draft will probably begin to bear upon the male students in universities who have reached the age of 21. The extent to which they will be drawn off for national service will of course depend upon the need for man power in the armed forces and in the agencies of supply. But every university — should be prepared for a substantial reduction in the rolls of its full-time students. In the case of the University of Buffalo the reduction should be in part offset by accessions to the number of part-time students who come to secure special preparation for service in the defense industries. Negotiations are now in progress between officers of the university and representatives of a number of the industries looking toward the development of several training programs in which the university will play an important part. As the defense activities grow and ramify, the opportunities for the university to participate in them through supplying essential theoretical training to members of the technical staffs will undoubtedly multiply. If the experience of 1917 and 1918 furnishes any basis of judgment, the university will also be called upon to offer its laboratories and the services of its investigators for research in problems arising out of the program of rearmament and of the organization of the country for defense. I am sure that I express the views of the Council as well as those of the faculty when I say that the university is ready to respond to these demands whenever they are made. From what has been said the Council will observe that the financial problems of the university are likely to be complicated by the steps taken by the government to meet the present national emergency. The university's balanced budget is always within a hair's breadth of being unbalanced. We cannot stand a substantial loss in the income from students' fees without incurring an operating deficit. If this is to be avoided the university must, within the next year, secure from some source additional funds to cover its regular current expenditures. The material contributions that universities can make to national defense considerable. Nevertheless, their chief contribution must be in another sphere. The United States may or may not be threatened in the near future by the military forces of a foreign power. It is now definitely threatened by ideas, both from within and from without. The principles of American democracy are threatened, both by those who understand them and do not believe in them, and by those who profess to believe in them but do not understand them. In meeting and defeating this threat universities have a crucial part to play. The great conflict which is now causing such untold misery to millions of people in other parts of the world is not wholly, or perhaps even chiefly, a military conflict. It is a conflict between the totalitarian and the democratic philosophies. The issue are is whether men shall be the pawns of the state, or whether the state shall be the servant of the individuals who compose society. One of the fundamental purposes of American democracy that our universities are expected to interpret and promote is embodied in the first amendment of the Constitution, often referred to as Article I of the Bill of Rights. And with this principle American universities are especially concerned. By this amendment American democracy is officially and specifically committed to toleration of differences of opinion. Inherent in Article I of the Bill of Rights is the thesis that dissenting minorities shall suffer no disability. Further articles in this same instrument provide that the government shall not use force against any of its citizens except those who contravene its laws or who seek by violence to overthrow it. In times of crises and excitement wellmeaning but thoughtless citizens forget or ignore these fundamental principles. They are prone to urge upon government officials actions altogether inconsistent with them. In the name of patriotism they sometimes resort to repressive acts against unpopular minorities and against individuals with whom they do not agree. It is, therefore, especially in such times that American democracy needs defenders and interpreters. It is indeed especially in times like these that American universities need to be clearsighted, consistent, and courageous, if they are to play their appointed role as guardians and exponents of the democratic idea. Just how shall universities interpret and defend American democracy? By suppressing discussion? By disciplining nonconformists? By dismissing teachers whose views are unpopular with some group of influential people? By prohibiting students from having contact with any ideas except those sanctioned by someone in authority? By indoctrinating students with some kind of social or political dogma? Not m any of these ways. Every one of them is diametrically opposed to the principles to which this democracy is dedicated. Universities can best defend American democracy by tenaciously upholding those rights which American democracy guarantees. They can best interpret American democracy by giving an example of it. The university will tolerate among its members any views on any subject and the free expression of them, no matter howoffensive they may be to the majority, or how bizarre. It will be confident that as good money drives out bad, so opinions that are unfounded will be overwhelmed by those that rest on a sound basis of evidence. No subject will be closed to inves- �3 ALUMNI BULLETIN tigation. The university will especially inquire into all subjects that are controversial, because the only intelligent and competent way to deal with a controversy—and the only democratic way—is to find out all about it; both sides of it, not one side alone. The American university will not follow the example of the universities of the totalitarian countries and substitute propaganda for the scholarly search for truth. The foregoing paragraphs present no new concept to the members of the Council of the University of Buffalo. The Council has for many years conceived the role of this university in substantially these terms. I venture to review these familiar matters again only because I am persuaded that in the period we are entering extraordinary efforts will be made by entirely sincere persons both inside and outside the university to induce the Council and the faculty to modify or abandon this concept. We are not altogether unaccustomed to such pressures, but I foresee that they will be stronger than ever and more difficult to resist. The real test of our faith in the principles of university administration to which we are committed and of our willingness to uphold them lies just ahead. THE YEAR 1939-1940 Enrollment and Finances The total enrollment for the year under review was 5285, once more the largest in the history of the university. The increase over the preceding year, however, was only 1.50 per cent. The enrollment of the Summer session likewise registered a gain of less than one per cent. The increase of the university's student population, therefore, occurred almost entirely in the fulltime day divisions. In the preceding reports I have called the Council's attention to the fact that the enrollment in the day divisions has, since 1932, been subject to only minor fluctuations and that its general trend has been slowly upward. In the year under review the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Law, and the School of Education showed a decline in enrollment. All of the other professional schools showed gains. For several years the comptroller has reported that the income from fees of students constitutes approximately 80 per cent of the university's total income. The annual increases in the total income have of late been almost wholly due to increases in enrollment, for although there have been each year substantial additions to the endowment funds of the university the rate of return on these funds has been declining. Central University Services The Libraries The Lockwood Memorial library, the main library of the university, becomes every year a more important instrument of education for the campus students and of general culture for the citizens of Buffalo. The steady growth in the central book collection continues. The special poetry col- lection aided by the generous grant of the Carnegie corporation has increased by more than.l"7oo printed volumes. Thanks also to the Carnegie corporation, the Lockwood Memorial library houses and services an extensive collection of music study material consisting of a phongraph and recordings of the principal classical and modern compositions. Through the generosity of the Friends of the Lockwood Memorial library extensive additions have been made to the Lockwood collection of old and rare books. Although the growth of the student body on the campus has been slight, the library records an increase of nearly 13 per cent in attendance and nearly 16 per cent in book circulation. Exclusive of the Lockwood collection of old and rare books the libraries of the university now contain approximately 160,000 volumes and over 100.000 pamphlets. Public Lectures There are two general lecture funds, the James Fenton foundation and the Orin E. Foster Lecture fund. The Fenton foundation brings to the university distinguished authorities in art, literature, and the social sciences. The lectures on the Foster foundation are in the field of the physical sciences, particularly chemistry. They are open to the public. Bureau of Personnel Research This office, the Council will remember, is in charge of a number of activities: a comprehensive testing service, a how to study course for students of doubtful high school accomplishment, a placement service for the benefit of graduates. And it carries on research. One of its most important activities in the combined fields of testing and guidance has been its direction of the work of superior high school students who by extra study and passing of special examinations are enabled to secure the bachelor's degree in less than the customary four years. In the year under review the personnel office administered 185 examinations taken for credit in advance. The record of the University of Buffalo in finding employment for its graduates has been exceptionally good. New University Officers In November 1939 the committee on general administration of the Council created the office of associate secretary of the university and charged that officer with the tasks of bringing the accomplishments and the needs of the university to the attention of individuals or groups who may be willing to assist it through financial contributions, and of putting visitors to the institution in touch with those phases of its work in which they may be interested. The committee appointed Mrs. Norman P. Clement to the post. In June, 1940, the Council created in place of the assistantship to the chancellor the office of dean of administration and recalled Dr. Earl J. McGrath to occupy the position. Activities of the Divisions of Arts and Sciences Because of the tutorial system it has not seemed practicable for the College and the School of Law to follow the common custom of permitting prospective students of law to enter the Law School at the end of the junior year and to receive both the bachelor's degree in arts and the law degree at the end of a six-year period. By a vote of the faculty during the year under review, however, the departments of history and government and of economics are permitted to arrange joint programs with the Law School which will offer their students-- this- privi4ege..The University of Buffalo is one of six institutions of the Middle Atlantic states which carry on a program for medical technologists which is approved by the Board of Registry and by the American Medical Association. This course of study is carried on in co-operation with the Edward J. Meyer Memorial hospital. Students in this course, which at present leads to a B. A. College degree, spend approximately three-quarters of their time on the campus. School of Medicine About a decade ago the school undertook an extensive self-survey which explored the curriculum, the organization of departments, teaching methods, and examinations. As a result of it a number of extensive changes were made. One outgrowth was the present plan for comprehensive examinations administered to all seniors. The faculty of the school has determined that another selfsurvey is desirable. It has authorized committees to examine not only the curriculum as a whole but also the organization, the facilities, and the teaching methods of the principal departments. School of Dentistry For several years the number of applicants for admission to the freshman class has been far in excess of the number that could be accepted. There cants for were 249 appli- admission during the year under Fifty-two were finally registered. review. They came from 25 different universities, 13 of these being outside the state of New York. The percentage of applicants holding baccalaureate degrees has also increased. Nineteen of this year's entering class were college graduates. Another gratifying tendency has been the recent annual increase in the number of dental graduates who have taken hospital internships. Twenty-nine members of the present graduating class have accepted such internships for the coming year. School of Pharmacy The quantitative requirements for the education of a pharmacist have been increased more extensively and more rapidly during the last 20 years than have the requirements for the preparation of any other professional practitioners. Finally the State Education Department decreed that beginning with 1937 schools of pharmacy must require a four-year course leading to the degree of bachelor of science in pharmacy. �4 The pharmacy school has enjoyed no period of stability for more than 15 years. Its enrollment has fluctuated, sometimes violently, in response to these constantly changing requirements. Whenever the time requirements for any course of professional education have been increased the enrollment of the schools preparing for the profession has fallen off. There seems to be reason to believe that further additions to the time requirements for the preparation of pharmacists are not immediately in prospect. The apparent stabilization of the quantitative requirements has had already a favorable influence on enrollment of students. In the year under review the enrollment increased more than five per cent. The university is interested in this phenomenon for more than purely selfish reasons. There has been an acute shortage of qualified pharmacists in the state for several years. It is now to be hoped that the agencies of supply will soon be in a position to remedy this difficulty. In the spring of 1940 a chapter of the national honorary society Rho Chi was established in the school. School of Law In previous reports I have noted the large increase in the size of the library in the Law School during recent years. Two years ago the library had outgrown its quarters. By the end of the year under review the problem of space had become acute. The Council has met the problem by authorizing the reconstruction and equipment of the small building owned by the university directly behind the Law School. The building will also provide a lounging room for the students. The percentage of freshmen who are college graduates continues to increase. This year 42 per cent held undergraduate degrees as against 34 per cent in the preceding year. School of Business Administration The Observation Plan continues to attract the better students. A general survey of the experience of the school's graduates who have been in the Observation Plan from its inception was undertaken by letter during the year under review. The great majority of these alumni recorded their belief that participation in the Plan was a unique educational experience. Leading industrialists, merchants, and business experts have once more accepted appointments as associate members of the faculty or as special lecturers. The total registration of the school was 286. This is the largest enrollment in its history. School of Education A year ago I informed the Council of the new ruling of the Regents of the University of the State of New York requiring, after the year 1942, five years of combined undergraduate, graduate, and professional preparation of candidates for certificates to teach academic subjects in the secondary schools of the state. The State Education Department has not as yet issued prescriptions covering the content of this UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO extended period of training for high school teachers. It seems likely, however, that the universities with schools of education on the graduate level and with well-developed graduate courses in the arts and sciences will attract a larger percentage of prospective high school teachers than they have in the past. The programs of the School of Education of the University of Buffalo that have been developed during the last ten years place it in a peculiarly favorable position to respond to whatever demands may be made upon it in fulfillment of the new state requirements. The Council realizes that perhaps the weakness of the universityis its low sa'ary scale. Although salaries were never high enough, they were relatively better before the enforced reduction of eight years ago. The low salary level affects some divisions of the university very seriously. The School of Education is one of these divisions. In this field the university is in competition for staff members not only with other universities but also with the public school system. The result for the University of Buffalo is that greatest present it cannot keep its able instructors in education. The School of Education has lost one or more of its best teachers every year for the last five years. Such rapid changes of personnel as the school has had to meet, threaten the continuity of policy and cast a very heavy burden on the administrative officers. School of Social Work The process of stabilization in enrollments in social work continues. It is probable that the school will not grow much in the near future. Nevertheless, its record in placing its graduates is almost phenomenal. The graduates of no other professional school of the university are as sure of finding immediate employment. The faculty of the school has from the beginning been alert to forecast the changes in the demand for new personnel inside the large general field of social work. It foresaw the shifting of the center of gravity from private agencies to public agencies and met this situation with appropriate offerings. It set up departments of housing and city planning and of public administration before most schools of social work realized the importance of these specialties. It is now planning new offerings in the special fields of refugee service and other peculiar services produced by the war in Europe and defense preparations in the United States. Millard Fillmore College The percentage of college graduates and other college trained people in the enrollment of Millard Fillmore College continues to increase. More than half the student body is now composed of persons who have pursued their education beyond high school graduation. A larger percentage of the students in this division are likewise enrolled in programs leading toward degrees. Probably the most interesitng new de- velopment during the year was the program for the training of civilian student pilots in co-operation with the Civil Aeronautics Authority. The university gave the ground school course. Training in flying was conducted apart from the university. Students were given approximately 35 hours of flying time. Some 10,000 students were taking similar training programs in 435 universities and colleges throughout the country during the academic year just ended. Failures in the examinations administered at the end of the course by the Civil Aeronautics Authority have run as high as 50 per cent. The Council will be interested to learn that the students at the University of Buffalo made a perfect record in these examinations and that all who took the examinations received the private pilot's license. The Work-Study Plan During its second year of operation the Work-Study Plan proved its value to the students enrolled in it, to the co-operating firms, and to the university as a whole. A number of firms have been so well pleased with the quality of employees coming to them through the intermediation of the university that they have taken on additional students. The Work-Study Plan is designed primarily to furnish students financial assistance. No student is accepted as a member of the Work-Study Plan unless it appears that he could not otherwise afford to pay the university fees. The average annual incomes of the families of those currently enrolled is $1650 a year. The rates of pay received by students vary from $12 a week to $21 a week. The 48 students enrolled during the year just closed earned nearly $18,000 and paid the university approximately $12,000 in tuition fees. Twenty-two firms on the Niagara Frontier co-operated with the university by employing students who were in the WorkStudy Plan. School of Nursing For ten years the university has conducted courses for nurses. Its entry into this field of higher education represented an extension of its co-operative relationships with the Buffalo City hospital (now the Edward J. Meyer Memorial hospital). The nursing practice included in the curriculum was provided for the candidates by the City hospital. The university became responsible for the academic courses and the courses in the basic sciences offered to the student nurses. Within the last few years several other hospitals have requested the university to offer to their student nurses instruction in the basic sciences and in certain academic branches. Graduates of other nurse training schools have enrolled in increasing numbers as candidates for the degree of bachelor of science in nursing. In June, 1940, the Council took the necessary action to divorce its enterprise in {Continued on page 8) �5 ALUMNI BULLETIN The Comptroller's Report To the Council of the University of Buffalo. Buffalo, New York. Gentlemen: The annual report of the comptroller for the fiscal year which ended June 30, 1940, is presented herewith. The balance sheet, Exhibit "A", shows endowment assets of $6,000,609.89; plant assets of 57,026,696.25; and operating assets of 5142.424.76. On June 30, 1940. the total funds in the endowment fund account were 55,984,82-.41, as shown in Exhibit "A" presented herewith. On June 30, 1939 the total funds were 55.654,951.44. The net increase for the year, therefore, in endowment funds was 5329.875.97. Two magnificent gifts received during the year contribute to make up this increase in endowment funds, namely the Jessica Anthony Sherman gift of 5192,623.41 and a gift of $100.01)0 from an anonymous benefactor to establish a professorship in American history. Both of these gifts are subject to annuities during the lifetime of the donors. Schedule "A-l" is an exhibit of the special purpose funds of the university, which, at June 30, 1940, totalled $4,095,047.43. These special purpose funds are a part of the general endowment of the university but they have been restricted as to use by their respective donors. The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1939 was $7,004,-737.65. The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1940 was $7,024,350.40. The increase during the year covered by this report, therefore, was $19,612.75. The total operating income for the year was $1,067,896.56; the total operating disbursements were 51.036,211.58. The year, therefore, closed with a credit balance of $31,684.98, which is 2.97 per cent of the total income for the year.

Of the total expenses 55.5 per cent was for salaries of instruction; 62.4 per cent was for salaries of instruction, plus supplies used in instruction and operation and maintenance of libraries. United States, state and municipal government bonds, purchased by the university, yielded an average income of 3.71 per cent on the actual investment; foreign government bonds, 4.56 per cent; railroad bonds, 4.14 per cent; public utility bonds, 5.14 per cent; industrial bonds, 4.04 per cent; miscellaneous bonds, all gifts, 1.15 per cent; stocks, 4.35 per cent; real estate mortgages and mortgage certificates, .91 per cent. The average yield on all stocks and bonds purchased and owned by the universtiy, and excluding gifts, was 4.39 per cent for the year. On June 30, 1940 the stocks and bonds in the university portfolio which had been purchased by the university, and excluding gifts, were classified as follows on the basis of market worth: United States, state, municipal and foreign government bonds, 18.7 per cent; utility bonds, 12.9 per cent; railroad bonds, 8 per cent; industrial bonds, 4.4 per cent; utility preferred stocks, 152 per cent; industrial preferred stocks, 4.1 per cent; investment trust preferred stocks, 2.2 per cent; bank preferred stocks, 1.4 per cent; rail common stocks, .4 per cent; utility common stocks, 1.6 per cent; industrial common stocks, 17.2 per cent; bank capital stocks. 3.8 per cent; insurance common stocks, 6.3 per cent; and investment trust common stocks, 3-8 per cent. The list is well diversified and of very high quality. Gifts and bequests received during the year which ended June 30, 1940 included the following: Jessica Anthony Sherman fund, 5192.623.41; anonymous gift for the establishment of an American history professorship. $100,000; estate of James H. Borrell for the establishment of the James H. Borrell Urology fund, $5000; addition to the James H. McNulty Professorship fund, $5000; Mrs. George F. Rand, $5000; Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor, Inc., $3000; Adam, Meldrum and Anderson, 31000; Buffalo Union Furnace company. $1000; David T. Wende, $1000. Mrs. Sherman's munificent gift is companion to a bequest of approximately equal sum, made by her late husband. Dr. DeWitt H. Sherman, a distinguished member of the medical profession who for a full generation was one of the leading figures in the Medical School/Dr. Sherman died on Feb. 1, 1940. By their terms, the combined benefactions are ultimately to be used for the erection of a new building for the School of Medicine of the university, if such a new medical building has not been provided in Mrs. Sherman's lifetime. If such a building has been provided, the combined funds are to be held for the creation of '"The DeWitt Halsey Sherman and Jessica Anthony Sherman foundation" for the permanent endowment of teaching in the School of Medicine with special reference to pediatrics, in which subject Dr. Sherman was an outstanding pioneer. If no unforeseen adverse factors develop in the next nine months, the university will close the new academic year on June �6 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO University of Buffalo Exhibit "A"—Balance Sheet as of June 30, 1940 Endowment _ ___ Fund Assets: Bonds _ Public Utility Bonds Government Bonds Railroad Boods.

This can be said because registration for the year is now quite definitely known. The picture is not clear after next June 30th. Any factor which thereafter adversely affects student registration, such as the Selective Service Act, will at once create financial problems because approximately 80 per cent of the university's income is derived from student fees. To this contingency the attention of the Council and the attention of the friends of the university is directed. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE D. GROFTS, Comptroller.

It established the School of Nursing as a unit of the university co-ordinate with other professional schools. Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Theestablishment of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in 1939 gave a still further stimulus to graduate work in the university. The members of the faculty have addressed themselves to the tasks of adjusting the graduate offerings to the resources of the university and stimulating productive scholarship. I have called the Council's attention before to the fact that most graduate instruction is expensive. In its initial stages it can be carried on as a kind of by-product of undergraduate in- struction. As enrollments increase and course offerings multiply, however, the enterprise becomes a budgetary problem. Unless the university limits the enrollment of graduate students it will soon become such a problem here. The Needs of the University The needs of the university are various; are large and some are small. They some can all be subsumed under two heads; more endowment funds and more money for scholarships. If there were a substantial increase in general endowment, improvements and extensions of existing services would be possible. Salary levels could be raised; and this is the greatest need of all. Just as useful as additions to general endowment funds are special endowments for professorships. Such gifts provide for indispensable teaching personnel and relieve to that extent the drain on general university funds. The University of Buffalo is able to distribute to outstanding students who are suffering financial difficulties a much smaller sum annually than is at the disThe total posal of most universities. amount awarded in scholarships and loans during the year under review was 426,-324.47.

Onetime alumni secretary and chairman of the committee is Dean A. Bertram Lemon, PhG '13, who characterizes the branch clubs as the public relations outposts <>f the university, their counsel, morai support and inspiration, as one of its greatest assets. It was in the early months of 1914 that Buffalo's first three branch clubs were organized, in Rochester, the Chautauqua county area, and the Southern Tier. There are now 13 organized district clubs, representing a membership of over 2000 alumni. An annual dinner and election of officers has been the extent of activities for some of the more distant groups, although several of these sponsor an athletic contest among high schools in their districts. While the new committee is also working with the divisional associations, it is toward the stimulation of activities and strengthening of university ties in the branch clubs that Dean Lemon's committee will direct most of its efforts this year. First step was the assignment of a member of the committee to serve as sponsor of each of the district clubs. Committee members have been appointed and assigned to the various brajich clubs as follows: Dr. John T. Horton, BA '26, associate professor of history and government—Allegheny Region Alumni associa- — — — — FELLOWSHIPS ESTABLISHED The establishment of two graduate fellowships in chemistry at the university has been announced by Chancellor Capen. They are the gift of the Buffalo Electro-Chemical company. Inc. of Tonawanda, and will entitle holders to Siooo for a year of study toward the PhD degree. Availab'e for the year beginning next September, they will be awarded in March. Although the university is endowed with a number of scholarships and professorships, these are its first fellowships.

First recruits went into training on November 18 and will continue for 64 weeks. Working in pairs, they are scheduled to alternate between four-week periods of fulltime study at the university and apprenticeship training in the plants of the cooperating manufacturers. Applicants must be high school graduates, at least 18 years old, in good health, and fitted for shop work. They will receive university credit. The Buffalo program differs from plans undertaken elsewhere in two important respects: 1. Manufacturers provide systematic industrial training. 2. The university's contribution includes no so-called background courses—only special vocational work. The weeks spent at the cooperating industries will not be taken up haphazardly by work of any type which may need doing. Trainees' time rather will be spread carefully over specified operations to develop skills in their performance. The fourweek work periods, therefore, will be in the nature of true apprenticeship training. Among the skills for which the program will provide development are materials handling, routing, maintenance, time study, drilling, metal finishing, milling and fine turning. Plants with equipment for training along these lines are not alone eligible for participation, however. A special program has been worked out for the foundry industries, and the university is ready to cooperate in other specialized fields. While on the campus, students will study mechanical drawing, machinery and equipment, manufacturing materials, plant layout, factory organization, industrial history, and such phases of elementary physics, chemistry, and mathematics as will assist them with their jobs. Students will pay the university $40 at the beginning of each 8-week period, or Buffalo's first three home basketball games—with Canadian teams from Toronto, FT. DIX BRANCH CLUB A new branch club is being organized at Ft. Dix, N. J., where 18 Buffalo alumni now are encamped for a year's training. Recent arrivals include Captains Maurice Lutwack, LLB '30, Brainard E. Prescott, LLB '35; Lieutenants William L. Hunt, Jr. LLB '38, Carlo J. Marinello, MD '39, Joseph J. Kerr, LLB '31; Sergeant Joseph S. Bauda, PhG '39. Also invited to join were Opt. Wilfred W. Fuge, assistant in surgery in the Medical school, and Lieut. Nelson G. Russell, instructor in medicine. Officers are Maj. Harry G. Johnson, MD '15, president; Capt. William G. Cook, BS '27, secretary. on Members will meet in the Officers' club Dec. 11 to see movies of the campus. Queen's and McMaster universities—have been cancelled because of the war, leaving the following 12-game schedule opening on January 10: Jan. 10—Wayne, away Jan. 11—Western Reserve, away Feb. s—Rochester, home Feb. 7—Oberlin, home Feb. 12—A'fred, away Feb. 14—Western Reserve, home Feb. 15—Rochester, away Feb. 18—Hobart, away Feb. 21 —Colgate, home Feb. 26—Alfred, home Mar. I—Hobart, home Mar. 4—Allegheny, away DH. LEWIS A. FROMAN $320 for the whole program. For the half of the time they are working in plants, they will be paid at the prevailing wage rate of $20 or $25 a week. Those who satisfactorily complete the 32 weeks of university work will receive 32 semester hours of credit, the equivalent of a year of college study. Dean Lewis A. Froman of Millard Fillmore college (downtown division) is director of the plan. Major difficulty, Dean Froman reports, has been finding enough young men in Buffalo to fill available openings. "Either there are not the large numbers of unemployed youth that we have generally assumed, or else they are unwilling to take jobs in shops," he says. BOOSTERS' FUND GROWS Eight more names have been added to the list of Niagara Frontier Scholarship subscribers, President Walter S. Behrens, DDS '30, of the Alumni Boosters, has an- : nounced Sustaining Member William P. McNulty. Annual Members Stephen J. Bedosky, Everett W. Crone, Henry V. Heiss, Ferris D. North. John D. Ogden, Alfonso A. Perna, Thomas C. Rooney. LAWYERS CLUB OFFICERS Recently instal'ed as officers of the Lawyers Club of Buffalo were: Evan H '■ lister, '99, president; Paul J. Batt. *C*. secretary-treasurer; and Lloyd M. Fink, assistant secretary. Rotary Field Packed For Homecoming - Football Season Best Since 1937 The most enthusiastic crowd in years overflowed Rotary field stands on Homecoming day, November 9, to see Buffalo play its 32nd game with Hobart college. First to score, the spirited Buffalo team made a splendid showing, but failed to hold a strong Hobart eleven with better reserve strength. Hosts of friends shared in the activities of homecomers in response to Mayor Thomas L. Holling's proclamation of a few days before, calling upon "the whole citizenry to join with alumni, faculty and students of the university in making the occasion a civic celebration." Members of the Buffalo Police Drum corps participated in a flag-raising ceremony before the game and helped to entertain spectators between halves. General Alumni Board President Victor B. Wylegala, LLB '19, greeted alumni. In Norton hall after the game, guests were received by university officials and faculty members, were greeted by more old friends. Students staged a coffee dance in their honor during the late afternoon and were their hosts at the harvest dance that evening. As a specia' feature of the buffet supper, alumni saw moving pictures of the Buffalo-Connecticut game of two weeks before, when Buffalo gave a strong team its first defeat of the season. Best since 1937, season's record follows: 20 Susquehanna Buffalo 6 Buffalo 20 Drexel 13 27 Williams Buffalo 0 Buffalo 0 A'fred 19 6 Buffalo 7 Connecticut State CC.N.

Froman, finance professor and Millard Fillmore college dean, will be published in November. The first volume of the work, which represents four and a half years of preparation, was published in June. No. 6 Bequest Plan Adopted Fifteen hundred law school graduates received ;i call a fortnight ago to assist their alma mater as members of a giant committee on bequests. George G. Davidprominent Buffalo attorney, is chairman. The purpose of the committee, which will hold no meetings, is to encourage clients to consider educational bequests in their DAVIDSON, '97 wills. Many colleges and universities throughout the country have tried similar plans with marked success, according to Mr. Davidson. At one eastern institution at least 51,000,000 a year is being written into wills through the services of its legal alumni. As depression and taxation have reduced incomes and estates, large benefactions have dwindled at the university. More unrestricted endowment, scholarship funds, and funds for research, equipment and maintenance are badly needed. Magnificently as the university has been supported in the past by friends and alumni, it is now confronted with the realization that it must have an increased number of benefactions if it is to survive. Committee members are urged to keep the university in mind when talking to potential testators, regardless of the size of their estates. Assisting as oiembers of Mr. Davidsons executive committee are these local alumni Morey C. Bartholomew, "09, a vice-president of the New York State Bar association; Charles Diebold, Jr., "97. president of the Western Savings Bank; Lewis R. Gulick, '05, counsel of the Erie County Savings Bank; Supreme Court Justice Samuel J. Harris, '07, LLM 08; Dana B. Hellings, '08; Thomas B. Lockwood, Law, '96, one of the university's outstanding benefactors; James McCormick Mitchell, '97. chairman of the university council; and Myron S.

WyleWYLEGALA. '19 court of Erie county. He had served as president since the board was created earlier this spring. Board activities had been carried on by an interim executive committee. Under the by-laws, a permanent executive committee is now set up, to consist of the officers and three other persons, who must be alumni members of the University council. The list, in addition to Judge Wylegala, is made up of Harry C. Guess, MD '12, vice president for public relations; Carleton P. Vernier, PhG '33, vice president for activities; Morey C. Bartholomew, LLB '09, vice president for alumni funds; Dean A. Bertram Lemon, PhG '13, vice president for associations and clubs; George G. Davidson Jr., LLB '97, vice president for bequests; William G. Cook, BS '27, executive secretary and Leon J. Gauchat, DDS '19; James E. King, MD '96; Griffith G. Pritchard, DDS '18. The five-point program follows: 1. Establishment as soon as practicable of an alumni loyalty fund to aid the university in its development. 2. Creation of a plan of giving to the university by bequests. 3. Stimulation of greater activity among the clubs. divisional associations and branch 4. Co-ordination of public relations media. 5. Scheduling of various public events during the year. The first of these will be Alumni Homecoming day, which has been set for November 9, date of the traditional Buffalo-Hobart football game. Only non-alumnus at the meeting was George D. Crofts, university comptroller and treasurer, who outlined the ways in which an alumnus can help his Alma Mater. "He can live an honest, honorable, outstanding life," Mr. Crofts pointed out, "because that will reflect honor on his institution. He can render personal service to it which is often worth more than financial gifts. Only a few of our nearly 10,000 alumni have that opportunity, however. And he can pick out the best high school students in his community and persuade them to attend the university. "But the thing that most of us can do is to lend some financial support as our means permit. That puts the demonstration of alumni loyalty within the power of everyone. Universities throughout the country are leaning more and more heavily on their alumni for small gifts, because the big gifts are drying up. At Cornell, for instance, annual contributions from alumni in some vears total more than $400,000." Council Chairman James McCormick Mitchell, LLB '97, reviewed the institution's progress during the past 20 years, and predicted that, with alumni help, its progress during the next 20 years will be just as great. Delegates from district c'ubs were Karl W. Brownell, BA '30, Niagara Area club (Niagara Falls); Ralph J. McMahon, MD '21, Southern Tier club (Johnson City); Charles J. Mondo, LLB '16, Monroe County club (Rochester); Mary Louise Nice, BA '32. Twin City club (Tonawanda) ; Arthur L. Runals, MD '11. Allegheny Region club (Olean).

Sees Spiritual Upturn Exactly 400 degrees, diplomas and certificates were awarded at the university's 94th Commencement on June 12. Speaker of the day was Dr. William H. Cowley, president of Hamilton college, who startled his listeners with the statement that Germany began an intellectual invasion of America 75 years ago. Since that time, he declared, educators have been following more and more the German tradition of the cultivation of the mind, to the exclusion of the spirit. He pleaded for more attention to the all-around development of the college student, and expressed a belief that the present world crisis may halt America's spiritual decay.

McGrath, BA '28, MA '30, to the new post of dean of administration, heads a list of appointments and promotions announced at Commencement time by Chancellor Capen. Dr. McGrath was an active undergraduate, whose participation in musical, literary and fraternity pursuits did not prevent him from being accepted for honors in his major field (German). McGRATH, '28 The new appointment gives the university 12 deans. Since graduation he had served as assistant to the director of personnel research, assistant dean of the Evening session (now Millard Fillmore college), and assistant to the chancellor. He found time for graduate study, getting a master's degree in psychology at Buffalo and a doctor's degree at Chicago. In addition to his other duties at his Alma Mater he had served as lecturer in psychology and later assistant professor of education. In 1938 he went to Washington on leave to become specialist in higher education for the American Council on Education. He resigned from the university about a year ago. Also announced were the promotions of C. Merrill Brown to professor of chemistry; George W. Fiero, PharD '31 to associate professor of materia medica; Dr. Adelle H. Land, BS '22, MA '23, to associate professor of education and Dr. Willis L. Tressler to assistant professor of biology. Acceptance with regret of the resignation of Maud J. Frye, MD '92. as medical adviser for women, is announced by the university. Dr. Frye, whose counsel has been given to hundreds of women students during 17 years of service, has wanted to devote all of her time to private practice for some time, but had been persuaded to continue on until the present time. She was the first incumbent of the post, which was created in 1922 and filled in 1923. Dr. Frye is succeeded by Evelyn Heath Jacobsen, MD '24. Other faculty appointments announced are: Dr. Buell A. Sloan, former member of the Medical school staffs of Harvard and St. Louis universities, to be assistant professor of pathology; Dr. Thomas F. Barrett, Georgetown graduate, to be assistant in bacteriology; Marjorie E. Woods, Kenmore school teacher, to be consultant in education. Dr. Edward W. Sine, assistant professor of English, has been granted sabbatical leave for the first semester of next year. He plans to finish preparation for publication of his doctoral thesis on the poetry of the North during the Civil war. The university's advice has been sought by the U. S. Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce on a proposed plan to organize a localized business research system. Under the plan as outlined by Nathaniel H. Engle, assistant director of the bureau, during a conference with university officials, each co-operating institution would gather statistics and research material for national compilation. The university's Bureau of Business and Social Research is a'ready geared for such an effort.

The winners amassed 71 points in the division while Kenmore A PLEA FOR JOBS At this time of year every college alumnus is urged to help us find jobs for our graduating seniors. It is a part of college loyalty to boost your college. They are a fine crop, but need a little special attention this year because of the death of Mr. Morris. We estimate that of the graduates of the Arts college, about onethird are planning graduate or professional training, one-third are employed or are not interested in jobs, and one-third are hoping for jobs, some quite urgently. You can help the graduates of your college by: (1) Notifying the Personnel office of any jobs you hear might be avai'able, —even if they are outside your field. (2) Calling up the Personnel office if you hear about a rumored expansion in an industry. (3) Letting us know of any employer who is thinking about hiring someone. Suggest that he call up the Personnel office. Please be assured that our graduates are on the average superior to the college graduates in general. They are worth a boost from you! THE PERSONNEL OFFICE. Lockport rolled up 35 and Tonawanda 14. The victory gave Kenmore a second leg on the cup. East Aurora already has two legs and Lockport one. In the "B" division Gowanda and Perry tied for top honors. Special relay cups were won by Kenmore and Gowanda in their respective divisions.

Throughout the year nearly 50 students have had both ground instruction and flight training. When the course closed with the end of the academic session, everyone thought that would be the end of such instruction until next fall. Growing need for trained fliers, however, has prompted the CAA to ask for help in operating a school during the summer. So the university, with authorization from Washington, now has a new training course under way. This time it will be given free. Under the former arrangement each student had to pay $40 toward the cost of the course. The government bore the rest of the expense. Where Are They Now?

M. A. Statement Alumni readers of the Journal of the American Medical association were downcast recently when they saw a tabulation of state board examinations which indicated that Buffalo graduates of the Class of 1939 were listed high in the percentage of failures for New York state schools. According to Journal figures, there were 4379 graduates in the United States examined, of whom 2.8 per cent failed. Compared with this national average, the Albany Medical college showed fai'.ures of 20 per cent, while the University of Buffalo Medical school's failures were 22.6 per cent. Stung by these figures, Buffalo authorities immediately got in touch with A.M.A. officials, pointed out that in reckoning up the results, statisticians had taken into account only those graduates who had tried state board examinations, paying no attention to those who had taken the National board examinations in lieu thereof. Buffalo figures showed that last year six graduates tried examinations in Florida, Illinois. Massachusetts, Pennsylvania or Rhode Island, and one failed. Twentyone tried the New York examinations, and five failed. At the same time, 45 tried the National board examinations, and none failed. Prompt was the A.M.A.'s reply, in which Dr. William D. Cutter, secretary, acknowledged that the university's figures threw a much different light on the situation. Said he: "I am asking the editor of the Journal to publish a statement to this effect, and I shall also try to revise our methods of tabulating the state board results in such a manner as to avoid unintentional implications which may be embarrassing to any particular medical school." Enclosed was this statement, for publication in the medical news section of the journal: "UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO SCHOOL In connection with the OF MEDICINE. figures for the University of Buffalo School of Medicine, on pages 1637 and 1641 of the State Board Number of the Journal. April 27, and in particular the percentage failing state board examinations, attention is called to the fact that since 1937 the students of this school have been required to pass part I of the examination of the National Board of Medical Examiners. Many students voluntarily complete the examinations of the National board and secure licensure on this basis instead of taking those given by the state licensing — boards. The University of Buffalo reports that 45 of the 61 students in the Class of 1939 passed part II of the examinations of the National board last year. Including this number in the group who were examined for licensure would materia'ly change the percentage of failures shown in tables 2 and 4." Since this interchange, the university has been notified that two more who tried the second part of the National board examinations passed. Alumni News Brevities '02 LLB—Joseph A.

AUTHOR "College Algebra" assistant professor university, as one No. 4 Cowley for Graduation The city of Buffalo is acquainted with the heads of many a neighboring institution of higher learning, through the good offices of the University of Buffalo. A new president is almost certain to be invited as a Commencement speaker within a year or two after his inauguration. For the 94th Commencement speaker on June 12, citizens, faculty, and a class of nearly 500 will hear Dr. William H. Cowley, new president of Hamilton college. A graduate of Dartmouth with a doctor's degree from the University of Chicago, he has been executive secretary of the board of vocational guidance and placement at the latter institution, and more recently a member of the psychology department and research associate in the bureau of educational research at Ohio State university. Dr. Cowley is an ardent believer in holoism—the development of the whole person during college years. He would therefore, have approved the program of Senior week, from which Buffalo collegians have just emerged. In the dying days of their academic career, campus fourth-yearlings wore caps and gowns, planted the traditional ivy at Edmund Hayes hall, invested in their university's future by joining the Senior Memorial fund, frolicked in the biggest and best Moving Up day parade in history, saw a pre-view of next season's football team in an intra-squad game which climaxed spring practice, then began sharpening pencils for final examinations. Wills Buffalo $50,000 The University of Buffalo was named recipient of a bequest of 550,000, the income of which is to be used "for the purpose of establishing scholarships in the liberal arts of that institution," in the will of Mrs. Amelia S. Woodruff of East Aurora, N. Y., who died recently. The scholarships are to be known as the Lorin James Woodruff scholarships, in memory of Mrs. Woodruff's late husband, onetime manager of Swift & Co., in London, Eng. The will stipulates that "the officers, trustees, directors or individuals are to determine the standards and conditions upon which said scholarships shall be awarded." It further explains: "I make this bequest in memory of my late husband and by reason of his interest in young men and women—their education and mental development." �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Alumni Give To Fund Ninety-one alumni so far have made contributions to the Niagara Frontier Scholarship fund, it is announced by President Walter S. Behrens, DDS '30, of the Alumni Boosters. The organization is making an appeal to alumni of the university, while the University of Buffalo Associates, official sponsors of the scholarships, are soliciting non-alumni in the Buffalo area. AH proceeds will be pooled for the support of the scholarships. The fund will be augmented by the profits on the amateur boxing matches held recently at Broadway auditorium, which amounted to 51032.25. Credit for the success of the show goes to the committee headed by Leo T. Crowley, DDS '22, who was also toastmaster at the Block "B" banquet which preceded it. At the latter event, members of various varsity teams received their certificates of award from Dr. Reginald H. Pegrum, chairman of the Faculty Committee on Policy and Co-ordination of Athletics, then moved in a body to the auditorium for the boxing matches.

At World's Fair Again Last year the University of Buffalo was represented at the New York World's Fair with a huge photomontage of indoor and outdoor views. Many were the favorable comments from alumni and friends who saw the exhibit in the New York State building. This year the university is participating in the support of a center for college men and women, where visitors will find a large lounge, an open terrace, rest rooms, check boxes and refreshment facilities, A service that has been most valuable and is being continued this season is the receiving and delivering of telephone messages, to facilitate meeting friends at the fair. The building is the College and University Women's center, which extends guest privileges to men. Leading institutions including Buffalo have sent literature and pictures for display, and have made financial contributions to the support of the center. There is a daily register of guests, as well as a register for each college, so that interested persons can tell who has attended the fair, the New York address, duration of stay and heme address. Hector's Device Shown Modern science sometimes marvels at the skill with which ancient and medieval builders constructed rooms which were acoustically perfect. Today an up-to-date architect or builder seldom completes a job without the expert services of an acoustician armed with devices for measuring the "brilliance" or "deadness" of an auditorium, office or broadcasting studio. One such device, designed by Physics Professor L. Grant Hector, made a mild stir at the spring meeting of the New York State section of the American Physical society on campus last month. The only one of its kind in existence, it cuts appreciably the amount of work necessary to obtain measurements. Other machines supply data which require hours of computation, while Dr. Hector's machine has dials on which readings can be taken direct. Among the others on the program was Robert D. Potter, BS '27, news editor of Science Service, national newspaper syndicate with headquarters in Washington, D. C, who offered some advice on what newspapers want in the way of scientific news. Arthur A. Hammond, AC '20, BA '31, described the increasing popularity of physics in high schools, ascribing it to the growing need for vocational training. MEDICAL SENIORS GUESTS Medical school seniors were guests of the Medical Alumni association at a dinner in Norton hall a fortnight ago. Main speaker was University Council Chairman James McC. Mitchell, LLB '97, who urged them not to lose hope in this pessimistic world, where "the instinct for self-preservation will always remain. And self-preservation demands doctors." The Alumni Who's Who MAJ. Clarence E. Lauderdale was born in Elkhorn, Wis., June 15, 1873. Reared in Livingston county, N. Y., he attended the Geneseo State Normal school, and later the Dental school at Buffalo whence he was graduated in 1898. He practiced dentistry at Naples, N. Y., until 1901, then entered the U. S. Army Dental corps when it was first established. His first assignment was in Manila during the Philippine insurrection. Later he served in Texas, Colorado and Illinois. He was in Mexican border service during the pre-war months, and during the World war served as examining officer in California. In 1921 he was graduated by the Army Field Service Medical school and from then until 1926 was professor of military science and tactics and professor of oral hygiene at St. Louis university. He was retired from army service in 1926, and now resides in Pasadena, Calif. �3 ALUMNI BULLETIN Divisional Alumni Association Activities ALUMNAE president of the University of Buffalo Alumnae last month was Emily H.

PHARMACY Each year the Pharmacy Alumni association's program grows. This year saw several clinical events during the year, and the final two-day clinic and reunion meeting attracted bigger numbers than ever before. At the closing dinner, April 17, Norton hall's dining room was filled to capacity with an audience of well over 200. Outstanding event of the evening was the presentation to Assistant Professor Charles H. Gauger, PhG '90, of the Gregory Memorial award to the Western New York pharmacist "who personifies the ideal of service and integrity in the pharmacy profession." The presentation also commemorated Mr. Gauger's 50 years of service to the profession as well as 25 years of membership on the school's faculty. Eli H. Long, MD '82, professor of toxicology, made the presentation. Main speaker was John M. Considine, PhG '12, general sales manager of the United Drug Co., Boston, Mass. Bulk of his address was devoted to the hands-acrossthe-counter relations of druggist and customer, but in an emphatic aside he announced that in his extensive travels across the continent he never misses a chance to tell that he is a graduate of the University of Buffalo. Full credit for a successful year went to President Theodore A. Alfieri, '23, who yields the gavel to Leo F. Redden, '23. Other officers for next year: Vice president, Alfred F. Zimdahl, '26; secretary-treasurer, Janet H. Bowen, '21; executive committee, Kenneth M. Murphy, '28 and Melvern K. Ward, '26.

AIDS POLISH PROFESSORS Chancellor Capen has been appointed to the American Academic Advisory committee, which is co-operating with the Kosciuszko foundation in aiding distressed and exiled Polish professors. Many afflicted professors are living in Lithuania, France, England, Hungary. Yugoslavia, Italy, Greece and Turkey, and a few havereached the United States, where academic positions are being found for them. SOCIAL WORKERS BUSY All but one of the 16 persons who received degrees through the School of Social Work in February are gainfully employed, it is revealed by Dean Niles Carpenter. Seven of the individuals are continuing employment which they had before graduation, while the rest have found new jobs. �4 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI BULLETIN Published monthly except July, August and September, by the University of Buffalo at 3435 Main Street, Buffalo, N.

Buffalo alumni will have an opportunity to participate in a busy program next year. Hard upon the creation of the new General Alumni board last month came the formation of an executive committee, which is already setting up a list of activities for the next twelvemonth. Appointed as an interim committee to carry on until formal election of officers in June, the executive committee apparently intends to make a mark for energy during its brief existence. Having elected Victor B. Wylegala, LLB '19 first president, it has created the five all-important standing committees made mandatory by the by-laws, which are studying their respective fields preparatory to establishing a schedule of events. President Wylegala has a full record of public activities to his credit. A Canisius man (BA '13, MA '15), he entered the university Law school, but was in service overseas before he finished his course. As a first lieutenant in the field artillery, he was with the A. E. F. at the Oise-Aisne and Meuse-Argonne offensives and went into Belgium with the Army of Liberation. He got his law degree in 1919 following his return to the United States. Active in Republican politics, he was a Buffalo city councilman from 1928 to 1931. and was elected judge of Erie county's Children's court in 1938 for a six-year term. He was elected to the Universitycouncil in 1937, sat on the Alumni council during the deliberations leading to its merger with the General Alumni association. and was co-author of the by-laws of the new General A'umni board. At its organization meeting last month the board chose the following chairmen of standing committees: Alumni funds. Morey C. Bartholomew. LLB '09, who is also president of the Law Alumni association: bequests. George G. Davidson Jr.. LLB '97; public relations, George E. Slotkin. MD '11, past president of the Medical Alumni association; alumni activities, Francis D. Leopold, MD '14, who served as the GAA's last presidentj_associations and clubs. Dr. A. Bertraml'Lemon. PhG '13, onetime alumni secretary^—~* These, with five others, comprise the temporary executive committee. The additional members: LaVerne H. Brucker, DDS '21; Leon J. Gauchat, DDS '19; James E. King, MD '96. last chairman of the Alumni council; Carleton O. Vernier, PhG '33; Helen G. Walker, MD 28. William G. Cook, BS '27, alumni secretary of the university, becomes executive secretary of the board, and will continue following committee activities were under consideration this month: Alumni Funds: Establishment within a year of an Alumni Loyalty fund, which, like those operative at scores of other colleges and universities, would require an annual appeal for contributions to the WYLEGALA, '19 university's operating account; continuance of the Senior Memorial fund, by which each new graduate is invited to pledge a small annual gift for five years after gradu- ation. Bequests: Appointment of alumni who are bankers, trust officers or estate attorneys, as committees of one to point out to clients the good to be accomplished bywriting the university into their wills. This, too, has ample precedent at other institu- tions. Trust agreements and insurance policies are also under consideration. Public Relations: Since the public relations committee's main function is to assist other committees in carrying out their programs, proposals in this department are not very concrete. In the meanwhile, ways and means of educating officers and workers of all alumni associations and clubs through the medium of a handbook or other literature are being discussed. Alumni Activities: At least three public events of alumni interest are under consideration for next year. A fuller program of events for Homecoming may, temporarily set for Nov. 9. when Buffalo plays Hobart, is regarded as a necessity. At the same time it is wrily pointed out that the success of Homecoming depends to some extent on the football team. University day, traditional with the alumni as well as the students, faculty and administration, also will get increased attention. A Commencement day reunion in June is a third possibility. Many institutions bring the classes back at this time, hold processions, sports contests, fraternity parties and other sociable events. Associations and Clubs: While the divisional associations are active on the whole, there is still much room for improvement. An added effort to increase activities of the 14 district clubs, and to found new ones, is regarded as important. Not yet referred to specific committees are such problems as assistance to the university in preparatory school relations, increasing of student understanding of alumni affairs, vocational advisement and increased interest in alumni elections to the University council. Thus, six years away from the university's anniversary, the alumni are preparing as never before to bind themselves and their Alma Mater into one big unit for the greater good of a great educational enterprise.

Kaufer, Bessie M„ '28 LLB Given considerable publicity recently was the university's new two-year graduate course leading to the degree of master of public administration. Unique in the academic world is the fact that the course is administered by the Graduate School of Social Work, because such a curriculum is usually an offshoot of the department of government or of business administration, and in only a few cases does it exist as a separate school. There are valid academic reasons for the Buffalo plan, in the belief of Dr. Niles Carpenter, dean of the school. "We think training in public administration should be related to a specific functional field of government," he says, "and that the man who is going to be employed in government wi'l be employed as an expert in his own field, with additional qualifications in the administrative aspects of that field.

Youngburg, professor of biochemistry was elected chapter president of Sigma Xi, honorary scientific fraternity, at the annual meeting last month. Other officers chosen: Dean Edward J. Moore, vice president; secretary, Dr. J. Graham Edwards; treasurer, Dr. Bird R. Stephenson. Dr. Youngburg is the author of an article on "A New Color Reaction for Vitamin B-l" which appeared in a recent issue of Science. "Furthermore, schools of social work throughout the United States have developed a technique for integrating theory and practice, through the device of supervised field work. We give definite academic credit for field work. We assign the services of our full-time faculty to arranging for field work and constantly linking it up with the student's classroom work and his own persona! and academic progress. It is relatively easy to transfer this technique from the standard social fields to such administrative fields as public welfare administration and housing where we have placed our own students. "Finally, we believe that social work has discovered certain principles in the art of human relations which can be applied most fruitfully to any administrative situation. Social workers for years have been dealing with individuals and groups under tension and strain. They have learned many things about the emotional and other factors that promote smooth working relations and release creative energy. We believe, for example, that most of what we have learned concerning the stimulation of adult group activity can be carried over into an office staff. Likewise, we believe that the deli- balance of authority, co-operation and interpretation called for in the relationship of a case work supervisor to a junior colleague, is applicable to any public officer cate who has administrative responsibility. "We are not training for public administration in vacuo. We are relating it only to those functional fields in which we have ready at hand adequate staff and usable field work facilities. They include public welfare, housing and city planning, statistics and penology." At the present time there are about 45 registrations in the graduate curriculum in public administration and the administrational aspects of public welfare. The program is administered by an autonomous committee headed by the dean of the school. Its executive secretary is a professor of government, and its membership includes the corporation counsel of the city of Buffalo, the technical director of the Buffalo City Planning association, the assistant director of the Buffalo Municipal Research bureau. Requirements for the degree include completion of 1200 clock hours of supervised field practice in public administration, a thesis and a comprehensive written and oral examination. In addition to classwork in professional practice, students must pursue certain courses in basic principles and skills, such as political science, economics, finance, accounting, research methods, statistics, case work, community organization. Numbered among the present students are workers from the local office of the Social Security administration, city employes, county welfare workers, a village clerk from a suburban community. �ALUMNI BULLETIN District Club News LOCKPORT Scheduled for May 25 at Belknap field, Lockport, N. Y., is the Fifth Annual University of Buffalo Track meet, sponsored by the Lockport Alumni association. Growing each year, the meet has attracted so many high schools that this year they will be divided into two groups—an "A" division for schools with a boy registration of 300 or more, a "B" division for those with less than 300. Trophies will be awarded in each division to the schools amassing the most GEORGE. '29 points. Special trophies will be awarded for the 880 relay in both divisions. President Clyde W. George, MD '29 is appointing committees and officials for the meet, several of whom will be supplied by the university's own physical education staff. NEW YORK DENTAL For their annual reunion dinner.

Other university facultymen who will be 3 Plan 10 Niagara Frontier Scholarships Three separate efforts were under way this month in support of the Niagara Frontier scholarship plan, which now has the approval of the University council: 1) A drive among influential Buffalo area residents for membership in the University of Buffalo Associates, official sponsors of the scholarship project. 2) An alumni drive for financial contributions to the fund, by the Alumni Boosters. 3) A ticket sale for an amateur boxing show, to be held in Buffalo Broadway auditorium on Wednesday, May 1. Proceeds of all three enterprises will be pooled in the Niagara Frontier Scholarship fund. Its backers are hopeful that they will have available full tuition for ten entering freshmen this fall, who, under the terms of the scholarship, have demonstrated scholastic ability, good character and physical vigor. Each scholarship would amount to 5375. The Associates' group consists of nonalumni, led by University Councilor William C. Baird. His followers have challenged the alumni to match contributions dollar for dollar. This has caused the Alumni Boosters, headed by Walter S. Behrens, DDS '30, to start a similar canvass of the entire graduate body. Third source of revenue is the boxing show which is being arranged by Art Johnson, Buffalo, entrepreneur. He promises in the nation's capital for scientific meetings at the same time are expected to attend. The club's March meeting was held on the day before Easter in Mrs. Redding's home. A visitor was Frank J. Dressier, BA '30, MA '33 of Buffalo. several national headliners, and has declared that he will donate the proceeds to the fund. Preceding the boxing show, the Alumni Boosters will hold the annual Block B dinner at which Buffalo varsitymen will be guests. The event is scheduled for Hotel Lafayette at 6 P. M. All alumni are invited to attend. The aim of the University of Buffalo Associates, as set forth in the attractive folder distributed by Mr. Baird's committee is described thus: "This group of public-spirited men has been formed to assist in promoting wellrounded development of the University of Buffalo. They propose to establish scholarships for all-around boys who will help make the University of Buffalo more widely recognized as the outstanding educational institution it is. The University of Buffalo Associates is a non-profit organization. Its members give their time and money for the good of the university. The University of Buffalo Alumni Boosters, composed of alumni of all parts of the university, will match the efforts and contributions of the 'Associates' in raising funds. Two friends will pay the entire cost of this mailing and other publicity expenses. Every cent you contribute will be turned over to the University of Buffalo." Under the plan, a committee of sponsors will nominate the scholarship recipients. The committee consists of Mr. Baird and Dr. Behrens, and E. F. "Tommy" Hughitt, Edwin Lang Miller, Judge Victor B. Wylegala, LLB '19; George E. Slotkin, MD '11; Arnott A. Moore, DDS '15; Dr. Frederick J. Holl, BS '22. Final approval of the committee's nominations must come from the university's own committee on scholarships and loans.

College courses in summer satisfy a definite need in an institution's program. Undergraduates who want extra credits, wish to shorten the time to graduation, or have to take courses missed or failed during the academic year, find such offerings convenient and necessary. Graduates working for advanced degrees or merely desiring instruction as aids in their professions, likewise are thankful for estival education. This year the university Summer session is laying special emphasis on opportunities available to what Director Leslie O. Cummings calls "the members of our community.'' Parents, club members, businessmen and business women and others concerned with the problems of intelligent citizenship in the changed conditions of modern life, will find in the catalog, courses which examine the backgrounds of current economic, social and educational questions. Among the new courses which will be offered are "The Public School Art Program and Its Relation to the Community;" "Lithography. Block Printing and Other Graphic Arts;" "Creative Form and Craft Design;" "Foundations of Creative Contemporary Design;" "Creative Surface Design;" "Economic Problems in World Affairs;" "Background of Modern Political Institutions;" "Bases of Method in Modern Thought;" "Practical Applications of Elementary Psychiatry;" "Office Practice;" "Rural Sociology." Altogether 170 courses will be offered by the 30 different departments participating. Central theme of the 1940 Summer session: "Responsibilities in the Face of World Conflict for Maintaining and Developing Traditions of Culture as Viewed from Education, Art, Business and the Sciences." Dates for the session are July 1 to Aug. 10. Persons are admitted without examination. They may enroll in any course for WIN CORNELL AWARDS Among the 63 fellowships and scholarships awarded in the Cornell Graduate school for 1940-41 were two for Buffalo graduates. Grace B. Ruckh, BA '39 won the graduate scholarship in Greek and Latin, while Mary Louise Carlson, BA '38 was awarded the fellowship in Greek and Latin. which, in the judgment of the instructor, their previous training or experience qualifies them. Except in the case of students registering for a degree in the university, formal statements of credit need not be presented at the time of registration. In every instance, however, the student must satisfy the instructor of his fitness to undertake the work of the course in which he proposes to register. An innovation to the college world is evening summer courses, which the university will introduce this year. Sponsored by Millard Fillmore college, instruction will begin June 3. Courses will run from eight to ten weeks. All this is in addition to the day Courses in the regular Summer session, which opens July 1. Within recent years there has been a definite tendency by adult students toward setting up degree goals and pursuing them diligently over a period of years. Since they work during the day. however, it is difficult for them to carry more than a limited program during the nine-month academic year. When Dean Lewis A. Froman last fall circulated a questionnaire among his 3000 students, more than half of them signified interest in evening courses during the summer. In the fields of business administration. engineering, nursing, social work, arts and sciences,, the new courses include systems accounting, money and banking, mechanical drawing, engineering drawing, empirical design, mechanics of machinery, kinematics of machinery, elementary surveying, machine design, freshman English, constitutional development, freshman mathematics. advanced anatomy, evolution, ethics, general psychology, mental hygiene for social workers. They will carry full university credit and will be taught by faculty members from the various divisions of the university and a group of special lecturers. Classes will meet two and three evenings a week. MACHLUP'S SIXTH BOOK by an English publishing house is the English version of The Stock Market.

L. O'Brian, '98, Awarded Chancellor's Medal Conferring of 130 degrees, certificatey and diplomas, award of the Chancelloi Charles P. Norton medal to a distinguished alumnus, and an appeal to thoughtful Americans to outlaw totalitarian influences from democratic councils, marked the uni versity's 40th University day convocation and mid-year Commencement, Feb. 22. To John Lord O'Brian, LLB '98 went the Norton award, "not for a specific act or a single accomplishment, but for a lift of eminent service to city, state and nation." Mr. O'Brian became the 13th person to receive it, and the second alumnus The first: Chauncey J. Hamlin, LLB 05 The main address was delivered by Sam uel K. Ratcliffe, British journalist and lee turer. Paying tribute to "George Washing ton, Our Contemporary," the speaker called him a pivotal figure of history, a hero to Britons as well as Americans, and a statesman whose spirit and method could well serve as a model for the conduct of present-day international affairs. It was Chancellor Capen who, in his introductory remarks, pointed out that Marxist and Fascist philosophies are incompatible with American doctrine, and emphasized that while American Communists, Bundists and other '■fellow travelers" must have their rights as citizens preserved, they "cannot be allowed to have a voice in the management of organizations conducted on democratic lines and committed to the improvement of American democracy." Alumnus O'Brian is a product of Buffalo's old First ward where he was born Oct. 14, 1874. He attended Public School 16, old Central high school and Harvard university, where he won his bachelor's degree in 1896. From the time of his graduation from the Buffalo Law school in 1898 he has pursued a career which has won him acclaim in legal circles throughout the country. He has appeared in low courts and high, and is no stranger to the U. S. Supreme Court, where his brilliance has won more than one favorable decision for his clients. He served on the University council for 26 years, and has been on the New York Board of Regents for 11 years. He was at one time lecturer on medical jurisprudence in the Medical School, and was recently elected to the Board of Overseers of Harvard college. Syracuse university Not for MEDALIST O'BRIAN, CHANCELLOR CAPEN accomplishment, but for a life of eminent service a specific act or a single and Harvard college have conferred honordegrees upon him. He served as state assemblyman for three years, was for seven years U. S. district attorney for Western New York, served under Woodrow Wilson as special assistant to the attorney general, supervising and controlling virtually all of the war work of the Department of Justice. He was called to Washington by Herbert Hoover to be first assistant to the attorney general and directed the anti-trust division of the Department of Justice. Although a staunch Republican, he was called in as special assistant to the attorney general by the New Deal, successfully carrying the TVA case ary through the Circuit Court of Appeals and the Supreme court. He is chancellor of the Protestant Episcopal Diocese of Western New York, and president of the Buffalo club. He has been chairman of the Buffalo Joint Charities and Community fund, president of the Erie County Bar association and vice president of the New York State Bar association. He holds the Belgian decoration, Officer of the Order of Leopold 11. ON NURSING FACULTY Edna M. Keefer, BS (Nrs) '35 has been appointed to the faculty of the School of Nursing. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Dr. Capen's University Day Remarks Although you leave the university in a time of great turmoil and uncertainty, you have one advantage over most of your recent predecessors. People have been saying for something like 20 years that this was an age of intellectual confusion, that old systems had proved inadequate to modern social needs, that there were so many new theories and formulas, so many new standards of value that no one could be sure of anything; no one could know what to believe. There was much truth in these statements. Both the young and the old were confused. Now, with regard to the fundamentals of social organization, with regard to the basic values of life, none of us needs to be confused any longer. Within the last year and a half there have been demonstrations on a planetary scale of the new formulas and the old. We have even had a few miniature demonstrations inside our own borders. We can now take our choice and know exactly what it is we are choosing. There is no uncertainty left; we are sure. Let us look at a few of the things we are sure of. We know that the totalitarian philosophy and the philosophy of popular government are absolute incompatibles. There can't be a little totalitarianism in a democratically organized state and there can't be a little democracy in a totalitarian state. The one excludes the other absolutely. If you are for the one. you are not for the other. The Marxist state and the Fascist state and the National Socialist state are totalitarian, and we know that as regards their fundamental philosophy there is not an iota of difference between any two of them. We know consequently that you can't adhere to a "party line" prescribed in a totalitarian state and still be a loyal citizen of the United States, however piously you may sing the Star Spangled Banner. We know that so-called fellow-travelers, most of whom profess to believe in the democratic principle, are in a desperate dilemma. They have tried to reconcile the irreconcilable. Their position is like that of the chameleon on the Scotch plaid. We know further that American Communists and members of the Bund and of the various leagues and legions which have borrowed their principles of action from totalitarian sources cannot be allowed tc have a voice in the management of organizations conducted on democratic lines and committed to the improvement of American democracy. Again it is a question of incompatibles. Their rights as citizens must be preserved as scrupulously as those of any other citizens. But it is folly to invite them into the councils of democratic institutions. We know that if you apply the Marxian theory of the "class struggle" to America. it just doesn't hold, and no amount of shouting from soapboxes can make it hold. You can't have a class struggle where the classes are fluid, as they demonstrably are in the United States, and where no class is either buttressed or penalized by the law. We know that if you believe in human rights, in the rights of minorities, in freedom of opinion and of discussion, in free choice of occupation, in freedom to buy and sell, to come and go, you cannot accept the totalitarian doctrines. For the totalitarian state recognizes no such rights. And it liquidates its minorities or enslaves them. We know that if you hate cruelty and believe that compassion and mercy are high attributes of the human spirit, there is one large sector of the world in which you could not possibly be at home, because the totalitarian states have made a cult of cruelty. At first we thought it merely a temporary aberration attendant upon revolution. But now we see that it is an intrinsic and necessary part of their philosophy. We know that religious freedom has vanished from the totalitarian states and that in some of them religion itself is threatened with extinction. And we know now that this must inevitably be the result of totalitarian control. The god-ruler can brook no other gods but himself. It is worth while to be sure of these things. If we add them up, the sum is impressive. It is not a complete chart for the conduct of our lives as citizens. But it is at least a compass which gives us our direction. If we consult the compass, we should be better Americans because more intelligent Americans. We have a great heritage of principles. We have not only taken them too long for granted; too many of us have forgotten them, forgotten what they mean and how dearly they have been defended. This is a day with a double significance for you. It is a day of remembrance, as well as the day on which you sever your ties with the university. The public celebration of Washington's Birthday is a mandatory invitation to every thoughtful American to consider once again those essential American principles for which our first President fought and which he did so much to establish. ON WATERFRONT COMMISSION Two alumni have been named to the proposed bi-partisan state commission which will unify efforts for improvement of Buffalo's waterfront—to be .jailed the Greater Buffalo Development commission. They are Frank S. Burzynski, LLB '99 and George G. Davidson Jr., LLB '97. WRITES MONOGRAPH George W. Fiero, PharD '31, Pharmacy's assistant professor of materia medica, is assisting in preparation of a monograph on "The Study of Deterioration of Drugs and Pharmaceuticals," which is being published by the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy. New Scholarship Plan Full approval of a citizens' proposal to establish a group of scholarships for allround boys of the Niagara area, was granted by the University council a fortnight ago. The action came following submittal of a plan by William C. Baird, junioi member, which would create a sponsoring agency known as the University of Buffalo associates, under whose auspices the scholarship funds would be raised by popular subscription. The terms of all scholarships presented the university must first have the approval of the council. A feature of the "Associates" plan is that it would recognize abilities and characteristics not normally to exhibited in the classroom. At the same time scholastic performance would be given full recognition in making the awards. The University council's approval was contained in this resolution: "Resolved, that the Council of the University of Buffalo accepts the offer of the University of Buffalo associates to establish by annual contribution the Niagara Frontier scholarships and approves the terms of award proposed by the associates." The terms of the award which had been framed by the citizens' group are contained in a prospectus made public by Mr. Baird: "The Niagara Frontier scholarships are awarded to students on the basis of scholarship, character, qualities of leadership and need. Nominations are made by the Uni versity of Buffalo associates' and must be approved by the university's committee on scholarships and loans. In making its nominations the 'University of Buffalo associates' follows the principles of selection observed in the designation of Rhodes scholars. These are: "(a) Literary and scholastic ability and attainments. "(b) Qualities of manhood, truth, courage, devotion to duty, sympathy, kindness, unselfishness and fellowship. "(c) Exhibition of moral force of char- and instincts to lead and to take an interest in one's school acter mates. "(d) Physical vigor, as shown by interin outdoor sports or in other ways. "No awards are made to entering freshmen who have not attained a Regents' average of 83 or better or else have not graduated in the upper fifth of their high school classes. No awards are made to students above the freshman class who have not attained at least a C average in the preceding year." Immediately after council approval, steps were being taken by Sponsor Baird and his friends toward formal organization of the University of Buffalo associates, in order that funds may be raised for the next class of entering students. est �3 AI.UMN!

Twenty-four members were present. Highlights of the meeting was the presentation to Charles H. Gauger, PhG. '90, assistant professor of pharmacy, of a book, The Pictorial History of Ancient Pharmacy and Medicine, in commemoration of his 50 years of service to the school. DENTAL EXHIBIT Hugh D. Quinby, DDS '27, assistant professor of prosthesis, was in charge of a historical exhibit entered by the Dental school at the Dental Centenary celebration in Baltimore, Md., in mid-March. exhibit covered partial dentures. The Society Creation of a new international organization of scholars in the field of philosophy and election of two Buffalo facultymen to its first board of officers made headline news a few days ago. Dr. Marvin Farber, chairman of the philosophy department, is first president of the new group, known as the International Phenomenological society, and Dr. Richard H. Williams, assistant professor of sociology and anthropology is first secretary-treasurer. Phenomenology is the science of descriptive philosophy as inaugurated by the late Edmund Husserl of Germany, one of the greatest thinkers of the last century. Its applications extend to various specialized branches of knowledge, such as psychology, sociology, art, law, psychiatry, mathematics, natural science. Purpose of the new society: To further understanding, development and application of phenomenological inquiry. Many famed European scholars are on the council of the society. A quarterly publication, "The Journal of Philosophy and Phenomenological Research will be published by the society at the University of Buffalo. It will carry articles relating to all branches of philosophical scholarship, making use of English, French and German. It will be distributed in many foreign countries. GROH HONORED Associate Dental Dean Russell W. Groh, DDS '18 has been elected chairman of the Association for the Advancement of University Education in Dentistry. Next year's convention will be held in Buffalo. The Alumni Who's Who "HARD-rock miners, hatmakers, furriers, cement, clay and pottery workers, photoengravers, rayon workers, cigarmakers, textile workers and an army of men and women in other occupations have reason to bless a name they have never heard." Thus did Readers' Digest, in its series on "Unsung Heroes of Public Service," refer to Royd Ray Sayers, MD '14, senior surgeon and chief of the division of industrial hygiene of the U. S. Public Health service. Dr. Sayers hails from Indiana, got his bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Indiana, entered public health service right after graduation from Buffalo. He got interested in occupational diseases, now heads 90 research workers in a big laboratory at Bethesda, Md. His list of published articles requires ten pages of typing. He is on the governing council of the A. P. H. A., a trustee of the Air Hygiene foundation, and a member of several medical, engineering and industrial societies. He holds a lieutenant colonel's rank, lives in Alexandria, Va. �4 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Council Approves New General Alumni Board The General Alumni association, which has operated intermittently for the last 25 years, and the Alumni council, which has been in existence for the last six, went out of business one day this month, when the University council approved a set of bylaws creating what will now be known as the General Alumni board. Main purpose of the action was to amalgamate into one central agency the two bodies which in the past have been striving toward the same objectives: University welfare, alumni acquaintance, stimulation of alumni activity. Leaders were prompted by the knowledge that the popular confusion arising out of the existence of two similar groups will be cleared up once and for all. Almost simultaneous with the council's act was the announcement by the Alumni Club, Inc., of intention to change its name to the Alumni Boosters, thus doing away with a third name which had added to the confusion, and putting a final touch tc the clarification of the entire structure. The Alumni Boosters will give attention primarily to university athletics, will at tempt to increase sympathy and attendance for intercollegiate contests, which have been frequently unsatisfactory to Buffalo's wellwishers, but never disgraceful. The General Alumni board, now officially the sole central alumni agency, will operate a program of general alumni activity, THE NEW CENTRAL ALUMNI STRUCTURE assist the divisional associations and out-of town or "district" clubs, and undertake a financial program for the direct benefit of the university's endowment and operating budget. The Alumni office will be undei its supervision. Its membership will be made up of alumni members of the University council, elected representatives of the divisional associations and district clubs. It will be the first time in history that the out-of-Buffalo units will have had such representation. Tentative organization of the new board was expected this month, and permanent organization is planned at the first annual meeting at Commencement time. �ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN 5 By-Laws of the General Alumni Board ARTICLE I Name The name of this body shall be the University of Buffalo General Alumni board.

How did the Iris come to be the university's official flower. With these questions in mind the Alumni office has been doing some research. A recent letter from Harrison Williams, LLB '93 of Leesburg, Va., throws considerable light on the subject. It is published below. — Dear Mr. Cook: In response to your letter of the 20th instant, it is a pleasure to send you the information you seek about the origin of the colours of the University of Buffalo. In the summer of 1892, when I had completed my first year of the Law school work, there was a fashion among college students of wearing small metal buttons on the coat lapel with the colours of their college enamelled thereon. It occurred to me that it would be a good thing for the University of Buffalo men to follow the fashion; but on enquiry I found that the university had no colours. I talked it over with friends and made some investigation as to costs, but in August, as a member of the 65th regiment, I was called out on strike duty and had to drop the matter. Then in September, with the strike over, I again took it up. Since my talk before the alumni association in Washington on the 3rd instant I have found some old journals or diaries which help my memory in the matter. On the 2nd of September 1892 I had a long conference with one of the law students named Harrington. I suggested the blue and white colours, pointing out that we must have a different shade of blue from that used by Columbia, and he approved. Later on that same day I laid our plan before Mr. E. Carlton Sprague, who was then chancellor of the university and senior member of the firm of Sprague, Morey, Sprague and Brownell in whose offices I was serving my law clerkship. My diary entry says that the plan received Mr. Sprague's "very cordial approval." I then obtained a sketch of our design and cost estimate from King & Eisele, manufacturing jewelers, whose offices as I recall were on the northwest corner of Eagle & Washington streets (upstairs) and the cost of the little gold-plated button, enamelled on its face, was to be $1 each, not less than twenty to be ordered. On the 13th September, according to my diary, "there was a meeting of the Council of the University on Tuesday afternoon and Mr. Sprague had a resolution adopted appointing Charles P. Norton and myself a committee of two to choose a button for the university. I reported the fact to Mr. Norton and we will go ahead with the matter with as much speed as possible." Mr. Norton, as you know, was then registrar of the Law school. His enthusiasm and work on anything he undertook generally carried it through. He apparently approved of the colours suggested and what work he had done for in the I find "Monday" (10th September) "was also noteworthy on account of the first of the new University of Buffalo buttons making its appearance." This, I think, was a sample for approval. The Law school opened on the 26th September, Judge Charles Daniels was then dean. On Monday 3rd October 1892 "The Law school buttons, twenty of them, were finished and partially distributed in the school meeting, with very general approval. Mr. Sprague, as chancellor, was one of the first to get one" and at once wore it —"jauntily"—l noted. 10th October:—"ln accordance with a suggestion from Charles P. Norton, I called upon Dr. Barrett, the dean of the new Dental department of the university, in order to ask him to appoint a committee from his students to confer with representatives of the other departments on the question of distributing the new university button in the Dental school. The men he told me had hardly got together as yet as their year was a shorter one than ours, but as soon as they were fairly organized he would bring the matter before them." Tuesday 4th October:—"l collected a part of the money for the buttons which Norton sent around to the faculty." 6th December 1892: —"We had the third meeting of the students committee of the University of Buffalo last night at the old Medical college on the southwest corner of The first Main and Virginia streets piece of work we undertook was to get the University button generally distributed in the different schools and in this we have been very successful indeed from tonight's reports. Our next piece of work was to get all the schools to unite on one general commencement day." The Medical and Pharmacy schools offered no difficulties, but the Law faculty demanded a longer year, which blocked the project. 26: May: 1893. After Law graduation exercises at the Music Hall, there was a Law school alumni banquet at the Hotel Iroquois. Mr. Sprague as Chancellor presided, with the Law faculty also present. After the banquet the Alumni Association of the Buffalo Law school was organized. I am enclosing six letters referring to the above matters. I remember putting them away in the belief that sometime they would be of interest to the university. My old press letter-book (tissue copies taken from dampened letters) will give more detail, I think it is stored away somewhere and, if I find it, I shall send you copies of my letters referring to the colours. The blue and white ribbons you refer to must have come sometime after the selection of the colours—certainly they are not on my diploma and I have never heard of them before. I know nothing at all nor have heretofore heard of the Iris as the university flower but think it appropriate that it should have been chosen. It was a real pleasure to meet with the next weeks diary entry .... Washington alumni and I hope to attend other meetings. With kind regards believe me Sincerely yours HARRISON WILLIAMS Sport Season Dismal FOOTBALL With the worst gridiron campaign since 1927 indelibly written into the record books, Buffalo's young head football coach and athletic director, Jim Peelle, this month started spring practice with a squad of about 30 men on whom he rests his hopes for next season. Contributing to Peelle's optimism, which he hides under a gloomy exterior, was the showing of the freshman team, which won two out of its three games last fall, while the varsity suffered seven straight defeats in as many starts. The 1940 schedule calls for eight games starting Sept. 20, of which four will be played at home. Newcomers are Drexel and Williams, while the familiar colors of Susquehanna, Alfred, Connecticut, C. C. N. Y., Hobart and Wayne will once more be seen on the field with the Blue and White. Schedule-makers have their problems, among which guessing at long range the calibre of home teams and opponents is not the least. Whether Buffalo teams will be on a parity with Lehigh, Washington and Jefferson and Johns Hopkins by 1941 is unknown. At any rate, those institutions are on the program for year after next. BASKETBALL Basketball, requiring each year more speed and stamina, has been played by Buffalo squads which have become steadily smaller and weaker since the championship days of the early Thirties. The fact that Art Powell's 25th anniversary team lost every game but one takes nothing from his fine record as a coach, emphasizes once again the need for material. Last Milestones '84 MD—George E.

Athletic Merit Dinner High school athletes, sports writers, sportscasters, public officials, alumni leaders, university executives and facultymen gathered at dinner in Norton hall one night early this month. The occasion was the university's first annual Merit Award dinner, held in honor of the 100 outstanding high school athletes of Erie and Niagara counties. Chosen by a Niagara frontier jury of award, the boys were to hear praise for their achievements on diamond, court and gridiron, and iu receive silver medals fxn. those achieve*ments. Praise there was, in full measure, but especially welcome to the ears of all university athletic followers were the remarks of several of the speakers. Samples: Council Chairman James McCormick Mitchell, LLB "97—"We may look back upon this occasion as the dawn of new days in the history of athletics in the University of Buffalo." Chancellor Capen—"We hope to impress you favorably; to impress you with our good will." Buffalo's Mayor Thomas L. Holling—"A good omen for the future of athletics in Buffalo and in the University of Buffalo."' The Very Rev. Austin Pardue, dean of St. Paul's Episcopal cathedral and "father of the Golden Gloves tournament" was principal speaker, and William C. Baird, young Buffalo industrialist and junior member of the council, toastmaster. It was one of the shortest banquet programs on record, for the boys were to be guests at three intercollegiate athletic contests. Trooping across campus in a body they found reserved seats in Clark gymnasium, saw the windup of a freshman basketball game in which Hobart defeated Buffalo 33-27, cheered the varsity on as it played the best game of the season, losing by a dignified 41-40 score. The wrestling team scored a distinct triumph over Alfredgarnering 20 points to the Purple's eight Academic Freedom and Tenure By W. T. Laprade Reprinted from the Bulletin of the American Association of University Professors Some public leaders, jealous of the good name of institutions established for the education of youth, anxious to safeguard the minds of students from contamination by doctrines esteemed by the majority to be dangerous, would have us eliminate from college and university faculties those who do not conform to accepted patterns of thought and exclude from the halls of learning those who dare to call in question the current social organization or conventional behavior. Some would go so far as to exclude from libraries literature containing expositions of views that are extremely unorthodox. With these missionaries of fear and apostles of inertia abroad and active, it may not be amiss to remind ourselves again of the implications of freedom, of the advantages of tested knowledge, of the security arising from an honest willingness to search for truth and to face things as they are. From the beginning, our government was founded on the assumption that a majority of the people, if properly canvassed, will respond to sane leadership and may be trusted as a rule to support that which is sound and to reject that which is unwholesome. If this is a safe premise, and it is supported by the Bill of Rights which is a part of the Constitution of the United States, we need not fear to tolerate on the platform any orderly speakers who can find audience or to allow any author to print who can find readers This is the accepted method by which the public at large in the United States is assumed to be moved to accept some leaders and the issues with which they identify themselves and to reject others less able to win popular favor. If this freedom of public discussion is a necessary part of the method by which we are wont to select leaders and decide questions concerning which there is a difference of opinion, it is all the more important that even greater freedom prevail in the institutions of learning where potential leaders are trained and where conventional habits and accepted notions are and ought to be systematically tested to see whether they may not perchance be improved. If the young men and women admitted to colleges and universities may not in their formative years be permitted to hear all sides of contentious questions with a confident expectation that most of them will develop the ability to discriminate between that which is impracticable and dangerous and that which is just and sound, we can scarcely anticipate that the populace will behave with sanity. and our government can not be expected to endure. An academic community is the safest place to hear and examine proposals of change, because its members have presumably developed the habit of listening to such suggestions with a critical mind and of testing their merits with a suitable technique.. College and university platforms, therefore, ought to be more readily available than others for those who would give voice to proposals which they esteem to be for the public good. An academic community has aii auuiiiond reason for being thus tolerant, that only by preserving for its own members the right to propound and test hypotheses that may prove to be unsound can it have hope of pursuing with security the quest for truth.

A. A. and Alumni Council Looms New Constitut ion Ready for Adoption When two businesses engaged i.n the territory. manufacturing a similar product , employing the same sales appeal. maintaining separate but simi lar establish­ ments and selling to a public that cannot decide which is the better merchandise but buys a little of each, they sometimes merge. Two central alumni organizations have existed side by side at Buffalo for the last six and a half years. The General Alumni association has had no membership since it ceased charging dues at the onset of the Threadbare Thirties , but its board of trus­ tees has continued to meet, elect officers. plan and carry out alumni dinners. The Alumni council, founded in 1933, also has met frequently and carried on business un­ der its by-laws. The association , without dues, has bad no income. The Alumni council has had an annual subsidy from the university treas­ ury. Realization bas come gradually to leaders of the two groups that there is a similarity of objectives , an overlapping of functions. an identity of constituency ( the wholf alumni body) and some duplicatio n of ef­ fort. Typical case was the Alumni Swim ming Pool ca.vipaign which the two bodies finally decided to spoosor jointly. First signs of a trend toward a merge, appeared in the General Alumni associatior: in 1938 , when the board of trustees agreed on a need for simplification and empowered President Jane C. O'Malley, DDS '23 to appoint a committee to study the problem and prepare a plan. To the committee chairmanship Dr O 'Malley appointed Homer A. Trotter, PhG ·09, MD '15; to its membership , seven representatives of the divisional associations All winter and spring the Trotter committet: worked, fmally presented a plao to the board. Its main feature : To merge the: GAA board of trustees with the Alumn i counci I. ( See page 3 ) . The trustees thought it simple, yet so bold they hesitated to proffer it to the Alumni council. In J une, 1939, Francis D. Leopold , MD "14 was elected president and the board directed him to seek the co­ operation of the Alumni council in simplify. ing the alumni structure and establishing same a program of general inter est to the gradu­ ate body. Meanwhil e the Alumni council had had the problem under discussion. It had ap­ pointed a committee to meet with one from the GAA for the purpose of finding meth­ ods of stimu lating alumni activity. This joint committee ·s recommendations did not get at the root of the matter. At the J une meeting of the Alumni council. James E. King, MD "96 was elected council chair­ man . Shortl y thereafter he 3.ppointed a committee on alumni study headed by Judge Victor B. Wy legala, LLB ·19. By fall Judge Wy legala's committee had a plan . Its main featu re: To merge the GAA board of trus­ tees with the Alumni council. (See page 3). The A lumni council went a step beyond the GAA when it formally approved the plan in principle . Next it was laid before the divisional alumni presidents. They gave it their personal approval. and the next step was up to the GAA. That step came swiftly. Early in Febru­ ary the GAA trustees met, took the Trotter plan from the table and gave it their ap• proval. The}' then directed President Leo• pold to appoint a constituti on committee to meet with a simi!ar committee from the Alumni council. Next da}' Alumn i Coun• cil Chairman King appointed his commit­ tee, and a few days later the new rules and regulations were being drawn up for sub­ mission at a joint meeting of the two main bodies. scheduled for University day, the 25th anniversary of the GAA's founding. The new constitution committee includes the followiog: From the GAA , Dr . Leo­ pold , Richard W. Collard , BS (Bus) '35; Claire Marquardt, BA ' 31; Riley P. O'Brien, BS (Bus) '35; George E. Slotkin ; MD ' II ; from the Alumni council, Judge Wylegala , Dr . King, Leon J. Gauchat , DDS "19; Dean A. Bertram Lemon, PhG '13; Thew Wtight, MD "03. Alumni Secretary William G. Cook, BS '27 is com­ mittee secretary. Main difference between the two plans is in the name. The Trotter plan would call the new body the Alumni federation.. The Wylegal a plan would call it the Geoeral Aluma~ council. In these rcs~cts they agree: The new body should indude rep­ resentatives of the divisional alumni associa­ tions , the out.of-town dubs and the Uni­ versity council. Jt should sponsor general alumni programs, publish a moothly bulle­ tin , supervise the Alumni office, encourage the work of the constituent alumni groups. It should be financed by the university, out of the income from an annual Alumni Loyalty fund. Neither plan would interfere with the autonomy of the divisional alumni associa• lions and the Alumni Club, Inc. These would still carry on their own programs and maintain such system of dues or other methods of financing as are now in force. Fin31 3.pproval of the new plan must still be sought from the University council, from which both the present bodies derive their authority. T O GO W EST Dr . Fritz Machlup , professor of econom­ ics, has been invited to serve as visiting profe ssor of economics at Stanford uni­ versity in California , next summer . This will be the fifth university Dr. Machlup has served in that capacity. The others were Harvard , CorneJI, Northwestern and the University of California in Berkeley.

UNIVERSITY COUNCIL A&.UMNI CLUl , ll'K . G.A. A. TRUSTEES ALUMNI OFFICE 1----------l ALUMNI C0VNC:IL PRESENT CONFUSION Dr. Trotter Says . .. What are the faults of the present sys­ tem? They may be summarized as foUows : l. Conf 11 1ion. Very few alumni under­ stand the present system, and wher e there is no understanding there is no interest . The individual knows what his divisional association stands for. since it is formed along natural lines. But fr om that point on it is too much for him to figure out. He hears of a General Alumni association, an Alumni council , an Alumni Club , Inc. ··which is the official body?" he asks. "What shou ld I as an alumni worker, give my support to?" And he knows no an­ swer. 2. Morale·. An effective alumni pro­ gram begets pride in its supporters. It knits them together as a body, and delivers ever increasing loyalty to the object of their affection-their Alma Mater . Will not the alumni have greater respect for an alumni organi zati on which holds public gatheri ngs, represents the alumni viewpoint at court, whose leaders and supporters under stand it and their part in it ? 3. Finances. No doubt the General Alumni associati on could undertake an in­ teresting and effective pr ogram if it had adequate financing. But to attempt to col­ lect dues again would be to return to the old evil of double billing, and with the Alumni C' ub, Inc., now charging separate dues, each alumnus would be subject to three appeals a year. 4. Genera/ . In brief , there are pr obably too many alumni organizations now, over ­ lapping each other to some extent, aod of• ten approaching the point of rivalry. The General Alumni association is an associa- tion in name only. It really consists of a board of trustees and nothin g more. If the system could be simplified, alumni interest would be easier to capture. If the alumni in general could be br ought int o closer participation with the management of the alumni fund , alumni office and alumni publication , even though the uni­ versity retained partial contr ol, alumni morale woud be easier to build. If finances coul d be centralized , the potential income would be greater, the pr ogram could be enlarged, and all participating orga ni za­ tions , including the university , would bene­ fit. Judge Wylegala Says ... The aver age alumnus is so confused about it that he has now confined his supp ort to the one or two thing s he can understand: H is divisional associati on which gives him a pr ogram of pr ofessi onal interest and benefit, and the Alumni Club, Inc., which offers him a social program . He usually does now know the differenc e between the General Alumni association and the Alumni council; he is confused about their officers, mechanical operation and object ives ; he does not have a sensa­ tion of being part of one big family of g raduate s doing something important for their Alma Mater. The faults of the pr esent system may be summ ed up as follows: A. Lack of income for the General Alumni associati on, wh ose tru stees realize that ther e is little hope of returning to a dues system, and have as yet not found any other meth od of financing their acti vities. B. l ack of intere st in the General Alumni association , because of its inability to conduct a program . C. Lack of co-ordinat ion. D . Lack of understanding 1 which breed s dissatisfaction witb the whole machinery . E. Lack of morale because of the feeling of separation fr om the university, of un­ importa nce to it and of inability to be a part of its oper at ion. F. lack of loyalty as a natural conse­ quence of the above causes. What has this or any university the right to expect of an alum nu s? lf we may judge by other institutions , that expectation has four aspects: 1. He shall be successful in his chosen field, and a good citizen . He reflects credit on his Alma M ate.r by his own achieve­ ments . 2. He shall be interested in his uni­ versity. He shall understand its aims and methods , support its po licies and defend its goo d name . 3. He sha' l serve it in such ways as he can , as by encouraging g ood students to attend . or by activity on its committees, volunteer faculties or governing body. 4. He shall, as his means permit , give materi al support. The a.lumni do not get that way by ac­ cide nt . Th ere must be a plan which makes them that way. The University of Buff alo does its best to see that each graduate qualifies on Point No. 1, and through its pub licity media it does something o n Po int No. 2. But more must be done to instiJI feelings of grati­ tude, respect , loyalty and enthusiasm before the third aod fourth aspects shall be de­ veloped satisfactorily. A re-organization of the alumni structure is indicated. �ALUMNI COUNCIL l BULLET!J.'\J The Proposed New Organization DtVISION/\L As r.Ns. DtSTIUCT CLUBS U NIVE'RSIT'I' COUNCIL CeNTRAL BoARO ALUMNI OFFICE PROPOSED SOLUTION The Wylegala Plan It is recommended that the boa.rd of trus­ tees of the General A lumni association and the Alumni council be merged into one central body. For purposes of discussion we shall call it here the General Alumni council. The General AJumni council would be made up as follows: Delegates from the eight divisional alumni associations Delegates from the district clubs Alumni delegates chosen by the Uni­ versity council from its own mem­ bership The General Alumni council would elect its ow n officers and name its committees . The objects would be: 1. To encourage and assist the alumni associations and clubs . 2. To provide for active participation of the individual alumnus in the advisory and management aspects of the university. 3. To provide avenues for material as­ sistance to the university . Included among the activities of the Gen­ eral Alumni council , to be carried on by committees in co-operation with various university officers, wou ld be: l. Stimulation of interest in elections to the University council. 2. Student relations. 3. Preservation of trad.itions. 4. Vocational advisory services. 5. Preparatory school relations (student recruiting). 6. Preparation of song-books , banners and other incidental aids to university spirit . 7. Celebration of University day. S.. Presentati on of alumni achievement awards. 9. Commencement reunion s. 10. Alumni fund raising (including act­ ing as a clearing house for all alumni money appeals) . 11. Co-ordination and stimulation of di­ visional association activity , including that of the Alumnae association . 12. Stimulation of class activity. Victor B. Wylegala, LLB ·19 Chai,·man Leon J. Gauchat , DDS · 19 A. Bertram Lemon. PhG · 13 Thew Wright , MD '03 The TrotterPlan We recommend that the present Alumni council and the present General Alumni association be merged to form a central agency to be known as the Alumni federa­ tion. This body would thus include the alumni members of the University council , and the chosen representative,; of the vari ­ ous divisional associations. We also recom­ mend that each bra nch (out-of-town) club be allowed to add one representative for each 100 members . Thus the central agency would be truly representative of aJI interested gro ups and in its own name could conduct programs social or philanthropic . Since it would operate the A lumni fund. thus contributing to the university 's income, it could justly call upon the Alumni office for services in carrying out its program , and its publica­ tion could be expanded in size and be more truly an alumni publication . It would be financed by annual contribu- tions. oat dues, to the university Alumni Loyalty fund , a portion of which would finance the Alumni office, buJletin and fund raising activities. while the balance, which would surely grow each year, would be placed at the disposal of the University council.

COUNCIL BuJletin 19 40 Six Alumni Now on N. Y. Supreme Court One Becomes Member of Appellate Appointment this month of an alumnus to the Supreme court of New York state briOgs the number of Buffalo graduates on that bench to six. Elevation of one of the six to the Appellate division marks the first time such an honor has come to a Buffalo graduate. Newest member of the Supreme court is Charles S. Desmond, LLB '20 of Buffalo. He was appointed by Gov. Herbert H. Lehman to fill a vacancy for the year 1940. Under the new plan, the student spends three years in the col!ege, and then matri­ culates in the Law school. At the end of "the fifth year the bachelor of arts degree is conferred. In special cases it may be con­ ferred at the end of the fourth year, and the student may so petition.

MAKE FIRST FLIGHT Eight Buffalo students - two of them gir ls-made their first air flights last month as members of the university 's civilian pilot trainiiig course sponsored by the Civil Aeronautics authority. Ground school began last fal I, and will continue , interspersed with flying lessons, until spring. New Use for Technique of Thea te r Econom ics Teac h ers En act Ro les for Stu de nt s Lniversity professors are commonly re­ ga rded as serious , unplayful fellows . There­ fore it is news when they shed their digni ­ ty. attempt to amuse their students. An actor does it for art's sake. Four Buffalo pro­ fessors are doing it for learning's sake. Big news indeed was the revelation a few weeks ago that Bu.ffao has led the way in emp loying the technique of the theater to teach--of all things-economics. News­ pa per readers discovered that freshmen there are taking what is believed to be the fust cour se for credit which uses the panel method of discussion, the panels in this case con tajning a definite measure of showman­ shjp _ The course , freshman economics , is taught weekly by four members of the faculty who may pose as financiers , legislators, salesmen or ordinary laymen . So widespread has in­ terest become that many other persons are sitting in on the sessions beside the 250 tirst-year studen ts regularly enrolled. Th oug h considerable time is spent in preparatio n, the lines are neither memorized nor read . The participants first agree on a general outljne for the " plot ", with certain pivotal points on which it will turn . Then they enact a typical scene from the world of business, finance or government. One week , for example, they played the ro les of four statistica l researchers arguing (Wer methods of measuring the national in­ come . Another time they were four in­ Ji ,·iduals forming a .gas burner corporation -tw o being men with experience in the building field, a third the man with the money to invest, and the fourth , the inevit­ able promoter . A high point in timely entertainment was the staging of a Senatorial committee meet• ing, in which the "O'Sullivan committee' examined with considerable oratory and some asperity , a H ouse bill for taxing big business. One "senator" even fell asleep during the discussion . The purpose of the presentation was not to lampoon our law­ makers , but to show that people as a whole often allow emotio n and prejudice to ove r­ whelm analysis and logic in their attitude toward big business. This part of the course is a weekly event . Students, in the meanwhile, are assigned ou tside readings which bear on the subject of the week. Later they assemble in sec­ tions of 25 or 35 persons for class discussion. None of the men necessarily believes all that he says. All sides of a problem are fairly represented. The drama of contro­ versy tends to sharpen the issues and stimu­ late thought. The technique keeps the sub­ ject alive . Changes of voice, changes of pace compel attention. Buffalo 's four scholarly actors are Dean Ralph C. Epstein of the School of Business Administration ; Dr. Shaw Livermore , as­ sistant dean of the school; Professor John D . Sumner and Claude E. Puffer, instructor in economics. I.Ast Mil estones ·7s MD-John Harding of Perry , N. Y. of pneumonia. ·92 MD-Arthur R. Bradbury of Grand Island . N.

The 1920 financial campaign which netted subscriptions of $5,177,726.41 had enabled the council to bring about a complete transformation of the institution. The campaign conducted in October. 1929, yielded subscriptions totalling 55.424.- ---890.70. There were 32,687 subscribers. The effects of the ten year depression have made it difficult for many subscribers, and impossible for some, to fulfill their pledges. Nevertheless, within this decade 87 per cent of the total amount subscribed has been collected. The university has also received numerous gifts and bequests large and small. While its development has not been as spectacular as during the eight year period following the acquisition of the first general funds for endowment and buildings, it has been steady and substantial. Few institutions have exhibited such unimpaired momentum throughout the whole course of the depression. A comparison of certain aspects of the university in the summer of 1929 with the corresponding aspects of the university in the summer of 1939 may give a rough measure of its progress during this period.

The total income for the year 1938-39 was $1,060,193-93. Grounds, Buildings, Equipment In 1929 the university possessed eight buildings used for academic purposes. Four of these were downtown. Four were on the campus. Since 1929 the campus has been completely transformed. Seven new buildings have been erected, each provided with complete equipment for the uses it is designed to serve. In 1929 the campus library numbered some 33,000 volumes. In the summer of 1939 the Lockwood Memorial library contained approximately 103,000 volumes exclusive of the special Lockwood collection of old and rare books. The collections in the departmental and professional school libraries brought the total of the university's holdings up to approximately 150,000 volumes. In addition the university possesses 100,000 pamphlets. All but a few acres on campus have now been graded and planted. Tunnels connecting all buildings with the central heating plant have been built; a system of sidewalks and roads has been constructed; adequate parking areas have been finished; many trees and shrubs have been set out. From any angle the campus now presents an appearance of striking dignity and beauty. New Instructional Divisions To the eight instructional divisions existing in 1929 have been added the School of Education, the School of Social Work, the Division of Nursing and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. The university now conducts its instructional work through 12 separate administrative divisions. At its center is the College of Arts and Sciences, including a special curriculum for the training of librarians. Eight separate divisions offer professional education in medicine, dentistry, law, business administration, nursing, pharmacy, education, and social work, and provide for scholarly specialization leading to advanced degrees. The Evening session, rechristened the Millard Fillmore college in 1937, and the Summer session are administrative divisions which respectively conduct instruction in the arts and sciences and in certain professional specialties in the evening hours and during the summer months. Enrollment The most rapid expansion of the university's student population occurred between the years 1920 and 1929. In com- with most other American colleges and universities the University of Buffalo suffered a sharp decline in enrollment beginning in the year 1932. By 1934 the falling off in numbers stopped. During the last five years the university's enrollment has slowly but steadily increased. In the year just ended it was the largest in the institution's history. For purposes of comparison the following figures are signifimon cant. In 1928-29 the enrollment of the day divisions of the university was 1662; the total enrollment, including the students of the Evening and Summer sessions, was 3586. In the year just ended the enrollment of the day divisions was 1903 the total enrollment including the students of the Millard Fillmore college and the Summer session, was 5207. ■ Faculty In 1928 the full time faculty numbered 116, the part time faculty 284. In 1939 the faculty of the university contained 129 full time members and 450 part time members. The ratio of instructors to students in the day divisions is high, in the College of Arts and Sciences exceptionally high. A mere numerical statement, however, conveys no impression of the quality of the university's activities in teaching and research. There are certain other indices of the quality of a university enterprise—and it should not be forgotten that quality is always dependent upon the standards and accomplishments of the teaching staff. For the sake of the record and for what they may be worth, I submit a list of the approvals by state and national accrediting agencies. The degrees of the College of Arts and Sciences and of all professional divisions are registered by the New York State Department of Education. The College of Arts and Sciences is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and by the Association of American Universities. The Medical school is rated Class A by the American Medical association and is a member of the Association of American Medical Colleges. The School of Pharmacy is accredited by the American Council on Pharmaceutical Education and is a member of the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy. The Dental school is rated Class A by the Dental Educational Council of America and is a member of the American Association of Dental Schools. The Law school is accredited by the American Bar association and is a member of the Association of American Law schools. The School of Business Administration is a member of the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business. The School of Social Work is a member of the American Association of Schools of Social Work. Another index of the standing of an institution in teaching and in productive scholarship is furnished by the attitude toward it of the national honorary societies in the several fields of learning and research. In 1925 a chapter of Alpha Omega Alpha was installed in the Medical school. Within the decade under review, chapters of the following honorary societies have been installed. Sigma Xi. In the college. Phi Beta Kappa. In the School of Education, Phi Delta Kappa. The establishment of a chapter of Phi Lambda Theta, the honorary society for women in the field of education, has also been authorized. In the School of Business Administration, Beta Gamma Sigma. In the Dental School, Omicron Kappa Upsilon. A third index of the quality of the conuniversity makes to the intellectual life of the state and the nation is found in the demand for the expert services of members of the teaching staff outside the line of their regular duties. During the past decade members of the faculty of the University of Buffalo have been con- tribution which a �3 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN stantly sought by governmental agencies, local, state and national, and by private organizations conducting scientific research. The University Budget From 1923 to 1933 the council annually adopted a budget carrying an estimated deficit. In 1932 the enrollment fell off abruptly, and with it the university's income. In the light of existing business conditions the prospect for the following year and for the years immediately succeeding was anything but bright. During the course of the academic year 1932-33, therefore, it became necessary to curtail the university's expenses drastically. The curtailment was effected by the utmost possible reduction of the budgeted appropriations for supplies and equipment and by a reduction of 10 per cent in the salary roll. When the budget for the year 1933-34 was in preparation it appeared necessary to impose a further reduction of BV2 Per cen* on the salaries of the teaching, clerical and administrative staffs, if a deficit for that year were to be avoided. The budget adopted by the council in June, 1933, was in balance. The university finished the year with a slight surplus. Every succeeding budget adopted by the council has been a balanced budget, and the university has finished each year without a deficit. In this respect its record has been better than that of most of the privately supported universities of the country in these latter years of the depression. It has i not been possible to restore all salaries to the amounts paid in 1932. Some progress in the direction of restoration has been made. But the fact remains that the .general low level of the university's salary scale represents its most vulnerable point. Unless this level can be raised, the university cannot long continue to retain its ablest instructors, nor can it hope to replace them by others of equal promise. The principal threat to its future lies in the inadequacy of its general endowment funds. On the whole, however, the decade just completed has seen the fruition of many of the most ardent hopes of those who have befriended and supported it. THE YEAR 1938-39 Enrollment and Finances The total enrollment for the year under review of 5207, the largest in the history of the university, represents an increase of 5.30 per cent over the enrollment of the preceding year. The percentage of gain for the year ending in June, 1938, was 4.13 per cent. Once more, however, the gain was wholly in the Millard Fillmore college and in the Summer session. The enrollment in the full time day divisions of the university was 1903, two less than the enrollment in the same divisions during the preceding year. Such increase in fee income as has been realized comes this year entirely from the divisions which serve a part time student body. The enrollment in the Millard Fillmore college increased 8.28 per cent, that in the Summer session, 20.49 per cent. The report of the comptroller published herewith shows that the fee income increased 327,492.53. Activities of the Divisions College of Arts and Sciences In 1933 the School of Education entered into a cooperative relationship with the School of Fine Arts of the Buffalo Fine Arts academy with the purpose of training teachers of art. The initial success of this arrangement led to further cooperation between the School of Fine Arts and the College of Arts and Sciences. A curriculum has been arranged leading to the degree of bachelor of fine arts. Members of the university faculty have also assisted the Albright Art gallery in offering courses in its adult education project. The results of the cooperation between the academy and the university have been highly satisfactory to both institutions. On March 16, 1939, the trustees of the Carnegie corporation "appropriated the sum of $23,000 to the university for the development of its cooperative program in fine arts with the Buffalo Fine Arts academy.'" By this grant the university's department of art has been substantially strengthened and its cooperation with the Buffalo Fine Arts academy made much more effective. School of Medicine In September, 1938, the public health council of the New York State Department of Health approved the undergraduate course in public health offered by the Medical school as qualifying graduates of 1940 and subsequent years for Grade II health officers. The courses as now offered are given in the third and fourth years. An important and valuable phase of the instruction consists of field trips. The department of post graduate and continuation work finds itself charged with a new responsibility. More and more hospitals are coming to require that a candidate for a staff appointment hold an American Board certificate. Provision must therefore be made for additional training of young medical graduates to enable them to qualify for such certificates. Through its administration of the work for the degree of master of science in medicine during the past few years the department has already pioneered in this field. Its work must, however, in the near future be considerably extended. School of Dentistry In spite of a more rigid selection of incoming students exercised by the committee on admissions the enrollment of the school increased 7 per cent over that of the previous year. The increased enrollment has taxed the clinical facilities of the school to the limit. The number of operating units has not been sufficient to meet the demand at the times when both the senior and junior classes have occupied the infirmary together. Provisions have been made to remedy this situation for the coming year, but it is clear that the registra- tion of the school cannot be increased beyond the present level unless the facilities are considerably expanded. During the year under review the new dental clinic at the Buffalo Children's hospital was put into operation under the school's direction. The clinic makes possible the inauguration of a new plan of instruction in clinical dentistry for children. All departments of the hospital are cooperating to assist the students to attack the problems of dental pathology in children from the broadest possible medical base. School of Pharmacy By action of the New York State Department of Education the length of the required course in pharmacy has recently been extended from three to four years. Whenever the time requirements in any branch of professional education are increased the enrollments in the schools preparing for that profession temporarily decline. For the past three years the student body of our own School of Pharmacy has exemplified the operation of this general rule. During the year under review the total enrollment dropped to 96 students. Other New York schools of pharmacy have had a similar experience. There is every reason to believe, however, that the setback is only temporary. The shortage of qualified pharmacists in New York state is already acute. The profession offers to young people an absolute certainty of employment, unless they have some serious personal disability. Moreover, the new four-year course, nearly 50 per cent of which is composed of liberal arts subjects, should prove increasingly attractive to students contemplating university careers. School of Law At the time of the reorganization of the Law school three years ago one of the most pressing problems confronting the new administration was that of the improvement of the library. The development of the library in this brief period of time has been most gratifying. It is now a sound working library equipped with an adequate collection of reports, statutes, and texts. It furnishes ample material for the extensive moot court work that is a feature of the present program of instruction, for research courses, for law journal work, and for memorandum work for the justices of the Supreme court. On Mr. Justice Louis D. Brandeis's retirement from the Supreme Court of the United States he broke up his working library and made a gift to this school of some of the most important contents. The gift represents an invaluable addition to the school's stock of raw materials for scholarship in law, particularly in the important developing fields of public law. The development of the library has raised again, and in an acute form, the problem of space. The faculty has continued its efforts to improve the methods of instruction. There has been intensive development in the field of writing and research. Theses are now �4 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO required in most of the senior courses. Papers calling for independent research are also a part of the work of the junior year. In the year under review the students in the course in legislation undertook the task of revising the ordinances of the city of Buffalo in collaboration with the corporation counsel's office. The 12 ranking men in the third year class were offered opportunity to act as auxiliary secretaries to the justices of the Supreme court. The 12 ranking students of the junior class have had the opportunity to assist in the publication of the Erie County Bar Journal. They have thus had the kind of experience which work on the law reviews gives to the outstanding students at certain of the older law schools. School of Business Administration The registration in the School of Business Administration which had increased substantially in the previous academic year suffered a slight decline. The graduate enrollment, however, increased somewhat. The Observation plan under which leading industrial, financial and merchandising concerns of the Niagara frontier cooperate with the university by providing opportunities for superior students to observe and study their organizations and operations, has now been in effect four years. It has proved its value as an instructional device. The officers of the cooperating enterprises have continued to express their satisfaction with it. School of Education In my last report I called attention to the recent action of the Board of Education of the city of Buffalo requiring 30 semester hours of work beyond the bachelor's degree for admission to the qualifying examinations for prospective teachers in the secondary schools of the city. There was a 69 per cent increase in the graduate enrollment of the School of Education. Many of the students constituting this increase were preparing themselves to meet the new requirements of the city of Buffalo. The Regents of the University of the State of New York have issued a ruling requiring all candidates for certificates to teach academic subjects in the secondary schools of the state after the year 1942 to have five years of combined undergraduate, graduate and professional preparation. It seems highly probable that the university may look forward to a greatly increased enrollment of candidates both for the Ed.M. and the M.A. degrees. The developments which have taken place in the school during the past half dozen years have put that division of the university in a strong position to meet these new demands made by the state and the city. It is clear that if through the operation of the new requirements these burdens are to be increased the staff must soon be expanded. School of Social Work In the year under review both the candidates for the graduate certificate in social work and the candidates for the de- gree of master of social service increased in numbers. Every graduate of the year 1938 and of February, 1939, is professionally employed or is going forward for an advanced degree. The university's School of Social Work not only supplies a large percentage of the local demand, but since it is the only school of social work in the western part of the state, it sends its graduates to agencies in Rochester, Syracuse and other up-state communities. The bottleneck limiting the size of the student body of any school of social work is the number of field work placements available. During the past year the school has been confronted by a near emergency because the reorganization which the city and county welfare agencies were undergoing virtually cut them off as sources for field work training. The budgetary limitations of certain of the private agencies also forced them to limit their field work activities. It has been necessary for the school, therefore, to develop placements outside of Buffalo. Millard Fillmore College Since 1933 the enrollment in the Millard Fiilmore college has steadily increased. The increase is gratifying as evidence of the growing appreciation of the colleges offerings by the mature men and women who make up the bulk of its student body. More important than any growth in numbers, however, is the changing character of the demand made upon the college for service. In the early years of the undertaking only a handful of students were interested in securing academic degrees. Now the number who are candidates for such degrees is considerable. Eighty students received degrees and certificates in the year under review who took the bulk of their work through the Millard Fillmore college. The dean and his advisers are convinced that the greatest service which the college can now render lies in the direction of the fourther development of degree work. In accordance with this conviction two steps have been taken during the past year to facilitate the progress of those students who desire to become candidates for degrees. The newly appointed educational counselor has acted as special adviser to this group of students and has helped them in planning their programs of study. The college has during the past year introduced an adaptation of the tutorial plan. The plan is meeting with enthusiastic response from a group of superior adult students. The Work-Study Plan The Work-Study plan, inaugurated in the spring of 1938 for young people of superior ability who are unable to meet the university's tuition fees as regular students, has completed its first year. Thirty-three students took advantage of the plan. The annual family incomes of the participating students do not fluctuate far from the $1500 level. Without the assistance which the plan affords they would be unable to meet the university's charges. Twenty-six jobs are being held by WorkStudy students. Sixteen organizations furnish employment to students registered under the plan. One of the most gratifying aspects of the university's experience during the year has been the willing response of employers to assist deserving high school graduates to obtain a college education. Graduate School of Arts and Sciences For several years I have called attention to the rapid growth of the university's enterprise in the field of graduate education. Graduate study leading to the degrees of M.A. and Ph.D. has been in charge of a committee of the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences known as the committee on graduate study and degrees. In my last report I recorded my belief that the time had come to recognize the fact that the university had in reality a graduate school of arts and sciences, to designate the body of graduate students and their teachers as such, and to provide a titular head for the unit. In June, 1939, the council created the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and designated its first faculty. Collection of Books and Manuscripts For the last four years the Lockwood Memorial library has been assembling a collection of materials designed to represent British and American poetic activity from the year 1880 to the present day. The collection consists first of books, pamphlets, magazines and fugitive publications in which the works of contemporary poets have appeared, and second, the work sheets used by the poets in the composition of poems together with the completed manuscripts. Two years ago the council sought the assistance of the Carnegie corporation in bringing this project of the library to completion. The corporation made an appropriation in the summer of 1937 which enabled the library to assemble a widely representative collection of the working manuscripts of the principal living British poets. During the year under review the librarian has visited some 90 American poets with equally satisfactory results. The undertaking has continued to interest the Carnegie corporation. In March, 1939, the corporation appropriated to the university the sum of $17,000 for the development of the poetry collection. The Needs of the University Two needs continue to overshadow all others. They are: a substantial increase of the general endowment funds, and large additions to the funds for scholarships to help able young people to complete their higher education. These needs do not change from year to year; they only become more acute. The income from at least $2,000,000 of additional endowment is needed at once to conduct properly the existing activities of the university; and a (Continued on page %) �5 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN The Comptroller's Report To the Council of the Buffalo, New York University Libraries, General & Departmental 43,902.72 of Buffalo. Gentlemen: The annual report of the comptroller for the fiscal year which ended June 30, 1939 is presented herewith. The balance sheet, Exhibit "A" shows endowment assets of $5,657,695.37; plant assets of $7,008,128.61; and operating assets of $122,696.01. On June 30, 1939 the balance in the endowment fund account was $5,654,951.44, as shown in Exhibit "A". On June 30, 1938 this balance was $5,740,353.64. The net decrease for the year, therefore, in the endowment fund account was $85,402.20. This decrease is accounted for by payments out of the endowment fund on account of the construction of Clark Memorial gymnasium. Schedule "A-l" is an exhibit of the special purpose funds of the university, which, at June 30, 1939, had reached a total of $3,755,909.86. These special purpose funds are a part of the general endowment of the university but they have been restricted as to use by their respective donors. The list includes eight professorships and 94 other funds, including scholarship funds, lecture funds and prize funds. Exhibit "B" is an analysis of plant assets of the university at the close of the fiscal year on June 30, 1939. The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1938 was $6,829,478.46. The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1939 was $7,004,737.65. The increase during the year covered by this report, therefore, was $175,259.19. During the year under review Clark Memorial gymnasium was completed at a total cost of $357,324.22, including equipment. The entire physical plant of the university, including the grounds, is in excellent condition. The total operating income for the year was $1,060,193.93; the total operating disbursements were $1,026,559.46. The year, therefore, closed with a credit balance of $33,634.47, which is 3.17 per cent of the total income for the year. Of this surplus the sum of $21,175.58 was appropriated by the committee on general administration to balance the budget for the fiscal year 1939-40. The total operating income for the year exceeded the total operating income of the preceding year by $22,783-81, while the total operating disbursements exceeded those of the preceding year by $27,530.62. For the first time in the history of the university both its income and expenses reached one million dollars for the year. The following is a comparative table of the operating account of the university for the fiscal years 1936-37, 1937-38 and 1938-39: INCOME 1936-37 $768,753.50 Fees Received from Students Endowment 172,497.31 Income from 12,593.24 Dental Infirmary (Net) Gifts Received to Apply on Salaries 7,400.00 1,730.00 Rental Property Income Miscellaneous 8,198.17 Appropriation of 1935-1936 Surplus 16,713.39 Appropriation of 1936-1937 Surplus Appropriation of 1937-1938 Surplus - Total - 1937-38 $815,981.88 1938-39 $843,474.4: 173,580.64 157,159.31 10.512.37 14.550.4: 1,705.00 8,449.28 10.938.4: 5.350.00 21,830.95 8,000.01 1,690.01 24,381.21 $987,890.61 $1,037,410.12 $1,060,193-9: Income EXPENSES Expenses of Administration $138,558.25 528,860.53 Salaries of Instruction Supplies Used in Instruction 26,435.12 Dperarion and Maintenance of Buildings 82,660.17 Dperation and Maintenance of —. 20,986.37 Central Heating Plant..Jpkeep and Improvement University Campus 45.364.14 — $151,107.64 $149,002.9! 548,938.01 21,567.53 560,582.21 26,867.1: 92,347.98 99,823.2! 24,823.95 24,242.21 38,679.86 41.727.2: Bureau of Business and Social Research 6,853.58 Department of Physical Education 14,601.66 and Hygiene 11,719.34 The Registrar's Office 6,192.00 Furniture and Fixtures Scienrific Equipment 6,939.63 Catalogs, Bulletins, Printing and Advertising 7,892.22 Insurance 5,968.18 Interest on Mortgages and Notes Payable 15,033.07 Rental Properry Expense 1,904.97 City of Buffalo Property Assess- _ _ ments Collection Pledges of Endowment $966,059.66 .11,830.95 45,483.62 6,362.58 6,525.40 14,543.40 12,210.92 16,153.25 13,159.02 4,292.63 7,676.64 4,996.35 6,305.21 9,668.67 5,954.49 8,105.95 11,720.68 1,800.76 10,972.44 1,786.97 8,530.09 653.88 44.41 2,368.29 2,251.63 Fund 2,187.71 Total Expenses Surplus for the Year 44,310.93 $999,028.84 $1,026,559.46 38,381.28 33,634.47 During the year 1938-39 fees received from students equalled "'9.6 per cent of the total income of the university for the year and 82.2 per cent of the total cost of operating the university for the year. Of the total expenses 54.6 per cent was for salaries of instruction; 61.7 per cent was for salaries of instruction, plus supplies used in instruction and operation and maintenance of libraries. Federal, state and municipal and foreign government bonds, purchased by the university, yielded an average income of 4.41 per cent on the actual investment; railroad bonds, 4.29 per cent; public utility bonds, 5.23 per cent; industrial bonds, 3-80 per cent; miscellaneous bonds, ail gifts, .26 per cent; stocks, 3.78 per cent; real estate mortgages and mortgage certificates, 1.58 per cent. The average yield on all stocks and bonds purchased and owned by the university, and excluding gifts, was 4.11 per cent for the year. On June 30, 1939 the stocks and bonds in the university portfolio which had been purchased by the university, and excluding gifts, were classified as follows on the basis of market worth: Federal, state, municipal and foreign government bonds, 19 per cent; utility bonds, 12 per cent; railroad bonds, 10 per cent; industrial bonds, 5 per cent; industrial and utility preferred stocks, 15 per cent; industrial, utility and railroad common stocks, 20 per cent; investment trusts, preferred and common stocks, 7 per cent; bank stocks, 6 per cent; and fire insurance company stocks, 6 per cent. It remains a diversified list of very high quality. Gifts and bequests received during the year which ended June 30, 1939 included the following: Estate of Sarah N. MacArthur for the establishment of the George P. and Sarah N. MacArthur fund, $63,287.64; addition to the LeGrand S. DeGraff fund, $10,000; Buffalo City Federation of Women's Clubs for addition to the Katherine Pratt Horton Scholarship fund, $1092, and for the establishment of the Sadie Rayner Altaian Scholarship fund, $600; Adam, Meldmm and Anderson, $1000; Charles W. Goodyear, Jr., $1000; estate of Amelia Stevenson, $1000; David T. Wende, $1000. The university's greatest need continues to be increased general endowment yielding free income for the general purposes of the university. Practically all of the larger gifts made to the university in recent years have been for specific purposes, thus affording little increase in endowment income for general purposes. The university's growth in the past seven years has been remarkable, its annual income now being well over the million dollar mark; its campus buildings are adequate for the present, and they, as well as the grounds, are in excellent condition; but, so long as 80 per cent of the university's annual income is derived from student fees and only 20 per cent from endowment funds, its financial structure is faulty, because any marked decrease in attend- �6 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO University of Buffalo Exhibit "A"—Balance Sheet as at June 30, 1939 LIABILITIES AND FUNDS ASSETS - Endowment Fund Assets: Bonds— Public Utility Bonds Government Bonds Railroad Bonds Industrial Bonds Miscellaneous Bonds _....* 537.101.20 _.... 813.361.78 422,523.10 218,006.25 Z8,04S.OO _ _ _ _ .

CHANCELLOR'S REPORT (Continued from page A) considerably larger sum would be required to develop these activities in accordance with the recommendations of the several deans and directors. The summary which opens this report should give added force to this statement. So large and comprehensive an enterprise as the university has now become rests upon an insecure foundation with an endowment of less than $6,000,000. It may in any year be seriously damaged if adverse business conditions in this area should bring about an abrupt decline in student enrollment. And every year the quality of the enterprise is in danger so long as the salaries remain at their present low levels. To provide for substantial increases in salaries more endowment will be necessary. With the continuance of the depression it becomes more and more difficult for many young people of the highest intellectual competence to secure the advantages of a university education. Welcome additions are made each year to the university's scholarship funds, but notwithstanding this fact they remain altogether insufficient to provide needed aid for all the ablest applicants. Most of these superior students that the university cannot assist fail to find the necessary assistance elsewhere. They do not go to college at all. They represent part of this community's most valuable capital. When their aspirations for self-improvement are thwarted the community is wasting that capital. Gifts for no other purpose would yield such rich returns as gifts which would enable these superior youths to make the most of themselves. Respectfully submitted, SAMUEL P. CAPEN. HULL INVITES CHANCELLOR At the invitation of Secretary of State Cordell Hull, Chancellor Capen attended a conference on Inter-American Relations in the Field of Education in Washington last month.

The university community has felt its touch too. Aboard the American liner Manhattan when it docked in New York Aug. 31 was Mrs. Violet Sircom, librarian of the Foster hall science library. She was visiting relatives in England when the war broke out, and was forced to cut her visit a week short in order to get passage with hundreds of other refugees. More harrowing was the experience of Mrs. Joseph Lander, wife of the building superintendent of Norton hall. She was aboard the Aquiianta when, just before sailing from England, passengers were notified that the vessel was armed British merchantman and fair game for U-boats. Some returned to shore, but Mrs. Lander remained aboard with the majority. The voyage to New York kept the ship's company badly frightened most of the time. In Germany at the outbreak of hostilities was J. W. Richard Lindemann, instructor in English. When German liners suspended service, he was forced to make his way to Denmark and sail home from there. The war also deprived the university of its visiting French professor this year. Maurice Le Breton, professor of English literature at the University of Lisle, has notified Dean Julian Park that he has been sent to the Western front. Raymond Las Vergnas, last year's visiting professor, also is in service with the French cavalry. Dr. Franklyn C. Southworth Jr., associate in psychiatry and neurology, trying to get out of England, had to wait two days on a lighter in Southampton harbor, before he could board the Dutch steamer which brought him home. His sleeping quarters consisted of a mattress on the floor, but he "felt lucky to get it." WIN MEDICAL HONORS Five alumni were elected to fellowship in the American College of Surgeons at the annual meeting in Philadelphia last month. They are Ernest L. Brodie, MD '27, BS (Mcd) '27, instructor in urology in the Medical school; William M. Howard MD '25, BS (Mcd) '25, assistant in ophthalmology; Walter F. King, MD '28, BS (Mcd )'2B, instructor in ophthalmology; Bernard Samuel Strait, MD '14 of Perm Van and Charles C. Thomas, MD '25 of Rochester, N. Y. Bulletin November, 1939 Nation Reads of Work-Study Plan SHIFT Work-Study students change places as employer and plan director Buffalo's Work-Study plan came in for national attention recently when a feature article about it appeared on the education page of the New York Times. The plan was adopted experimentally last year, and this year is being put on a more permanent footing, so convinced are its sponsors that it is worthwhile. Dean Lewis A. Froman of Millard Fillmore college (downtown division) is director of the plan. Many an old grad can tell of the hardships he suffered working his way through college. Many are the plans in effect throughout the country today, which give students a chance to earn while they learn. The Buffalo plan differs from others in that its participants must be definitely superior students, and they must prove the need for financial assistance. Students are enrolled in pairs. One holds down a job for four months while the other look on. goes to college. At the end of that period they trade places. Sixteen Niagara frontier organizations, including banks, utilities, clothing stores and chemical plants furnished employment under the plan last year. A student thus completes a semester of work at a time, and is able, because he is released from job worries during that period, to participate in student activities. The ordinary four-year course in liberal arts or business administration is lengthened to five, and a degree awaits him at the end of that time. CARL F. SIEKMANN Carl F. Siekmann, well-known as a teacher of German in Buffalo schools for 33 years, died last July. He was on the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences from 1918 to 1923. He was the father of Carl F. Siekmann, MD '28. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Four Sets of Twins on Alumni Kinsmen's List Ten Grandchildren of Graduates Included Eighty-one members of this year's freshman classes are closely related to Buffalo alumni. The College of Arts and Sciences leads the list with 43, while the Medical school is second with 12. and in 1938 it dropped again to 66. Ten of the new students are grandchildren of alumni. The list also includes four sets of twins, all of them in the College. They are Henry E. Efwood 111 and John N. Elwood, grandsons of John N. Shumway, MD '95; Eleanor J. and Joan B.

King, MD '96. He was elected chairman of the Alumni council at the annual meeting last June, to succeed Charles Diebold Jr., LLB '97. No abecedarian in alumni work, Dr. King was elected president of the Medical association in 1934, when it needed strenghthening, and saw alumni support shoot away up during his two years in office. He was also a trustee of the General Alumni association during that time, headed its finance committee and was general chairman of the UniverKING, '96 sity day dinner in 1935 which brought out a capacity crowd to hear Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, president of Stanford university and one-time member of President Hoover's cabinet. Dr. King has been an alumni representative on the University council since 1927, and automatically a member of the Alumni council since its creation in 1933- He has served on the Alumni council's executive committee for several years and last year was council Vice chairman. He has been a member of the Medical school faculty since 1898, professor of gynecology since 1925 and a member of the administrative board for a dozen years. Other officers elected in June were Leon J. Gauchat, DDS '19, vice chairman; Albert P. Sy, PhD '08, recorder and G. Thomas Ganim, BS '24, LLB '27, assistant recorder. The officers make up the executive committee with the addition of Myron S. Short, LLB '08, and Judge Victor B. Wylegala, LLB '19. Dr. King has appointed three committees to carry on special functions this year. Most important of them all is the committee on alumni study, whose function is the investigation of existing alumni organizations, programs and relations with the university, to be followed by recommendations for integrating alumni strength for the good of the university. Judge Wylegala heads that committee, which includes Dr. Gauchat, Pharmacy Dean A. Bertram Lemon, PhG '13, and Thew Wright, MD '03. For the committee on bequests, trusts and insurance, Dr. King has chosen George G. Davidson Jr., LLB '97, with Mr. Diebold, Mr. Ganim, Supreme Court Justice Samuel J. Harris, LLB '07, LLM '08, Thomas B. Lockwood, Law '%, James McCormick Mitchell, LLB '97, and Mr. Short. The committee on Alumni office will consist of Dr. Sy, chairman, with Horace LoGrasso, MD '04, and Griffith G. Pritchard, DDS '18. Ground School Starts Under government approval, the university is organizing a ground school for the training of civilian air pilots. Application had been made to the Civil Aeronautics authority in Washington. The course will be given throughout the present academic year to qualified daytime students of the university. Subjects will more tory, be taught in Millard Fill- college, and will include aviation his- air regulations, navigation, meteorology, theory of flight, radio, engines and ininstruction will be- struments. Actual flight gin in a few weeks. The government pays $300 per person enrolled, the students supplying $40 each for medical examinations and insurance. STATE LIKES BUFFALO Again the state of New York has recognized the excellence of the School of Social Work by designating 17 social workers and investigators to take a special sixmonths training program. The special students come from various parts of the state, and have been chosen from a large list of candidates. MEDICAL COURSE POPULAR Sixty-five physicians from 21 states en- rolled in the Medical school's 19th annual post-graduate course last month. It is the largest registration in the course since its inauguration in 1920. GAA Nears 25th Year This is the General Alumni association's Silver Anniversary year. When, on University day, 1940, its trustees commemorate its founding, they hope, too, to be able to celebrate a victory over the forces which lately have barred its progress. Force No. 1 was Depression. A promising program of central alumni activity was Financial and moral worst moment. and its most significant activities were shaved down or sus- - Decentraliza tion. Without an integrating factor somewhere, the divisional alumni associLEOPOLD. '14 ations have withdrawn into themselves, have strengthened their own programs, and have developed an appeal to their respective constituents which gains steadily every year. Many alumni activities have sprung up under minority sponsorship. Force No. 3 is Confusion. The alumni mind now finds it difficult to grasp the idea of central alumni activity. The functions of the Alumni council, the Alumni office, the Alumni association are not clear. So the old grad supports what he understands —usually his divisional association. Alumni leaders recognize that the coordinated power of 9500 graduates should be made available to their university. They also realize the need for clarification, for definition, for simplification, before popular support can be regained. Last year the General Alumni association sponsored a study of the problem as it exists. The year ended before decisions could be made and a plan adopted. This year's officers, elected last summer, have picked up where their predecessors left off. They have been encouraged by the interest of the Alumni council, which is aiming at the same goal (see column 1). {Continued on page 2) �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 2 39th Dental Meeting To Attract Many Last Milestones Class Reunions Will Be October 11 With a change of date to accommodate out-of-town members, and a reduction in fees, the 39th annual meeting of the Dental Alumni association, Oct. 11, 12 and 13. is expected to draw a record attendance.

Peelle Singing Blues Each year since his appointment as football mentor. Jim Peelle has made pre-season predictions full of optimism. Each year his squad hasn't quite come up to expectations. This year he becomes Peelle the Pessimist, as he hints that his boys will not be able to better last season's record of two won. six lost. Susquehanna university and C. C. N. V., Peelle thinks, might be the only Buffalo victories this year. A win over Lehigh, Connecticut State. Alfred. Hobart or Wayne will be an upset. Peelles frank estimate is made in spite of an admitted improvement in material. For a backfield he has Gene Nuwer, a good kicker; Vince Bonnerb, bullet-passer; Gene Small, heady quarterback, and Bud Henry, a good bet as a blocking back. In the line, where Fritz Febel again is coaching, is Roger Perkins, succeeding Vito Grieco at center; Ted Forgraves and A! Collins at guard; Ray Garlapow and Nick Kish, converted end. at tackle; Harry Jenkins and Wall)* Nelson at end. That's a fair guess at a first team, with Jack Ruhlman available either as guard or blocking back and others under consideration for jobs like Maynard Dutcher, Marvin Marcus, and Jerry Katzman, tackles; Ed Gese and John Herlan, guards; Gene Hiller, Bill Goldberg, Bernie Rosenberg, Bob Stransky and Jack Smith, backs. On Education Faculty Three alumni are among the new part time appointments to the School of Education faculty. R. Pratt Krull, BS (Ed) '33, associate superintendent of Buffalo schools for extension education, becomes consultant in adult education. Edna P. Meibohm, BS (Ed) '36, art teacher at Public School 78 becomes assistant in art education. Gerald A. Wilber, BS (Ed) '28, EdM '35, EdD '39, principal of Falconer public schools, becomes associate in education in the field of secondary administration. Rotary Fence Is Gone The board fence which did honorable service for a generation at Rotary field, is gone. It was replaced during the summer by a handsome wire mesh structure. Workmen moved fence lines so as to allow space for future improvements, such as a standard running track and facilities for field events. Privet hedges will be planted inside the fence next spring, and will eventually reach a height of seven feet, effectively screening the view from without. For this season, however, the gaze of non-paying spectators will be unobstructed. The work was done by the Smith Fence company. 743 Northland avenue, Buffalo. Where Are They Now?

M., 93rd annual Commencement, Buffalo Consistory, address by Dr. James R. Angell, president emeritus of Yale university; 4 to 6 P. M., reception to Education graduating class by Commencement season, by all official definitions, is the week of graduation. But at Buffalo, so many other activities point toward Commencement, that the season may well be considered to start the first week in May and continue to that June day when one more academic procession ushers nearly 500 newcomers through the gates of the brave new world. As though suddenly realizing that they had a few scant days in which to get their last enjoyment out of college, the Classes of 1939 celebrated Senior week May 1 to 6 with especial ardor. Despite a slump in the temperature, they strode from class to class in caps and gowns, pinned roses on all comers, planted an ivy shrub next Hayes hall, held their own convocation, held a private luncheon, and joined the rest of the student body in celebrating Moving Up the Alumni in Education, Norton hall. Grads Pick Councilors Buffalo graduates this month are balloting for their candidates for University council member. Under the statute, a third of the council must be chosen by the alumni, and three are selected each year. day. Then came the last few 'days of study, for which nobody has yet found a better word than cramming; final examinations, and that jittery hiatus until results are announced and Commencement invitations can be sent to proud relations. There will be still more activity for most seniors, before Chancellor Capen surrenders the sheepskins and certificates. On Baccalaureate Sunday, June 11, he will deliver his parting address to the graduating class, traditionally a masterpiece of rhetoric. Social events will fill more hours until Wednesday, when the university's 93rd annual Commencement will be held in the Buffalo Consistory. The main address will be delivered by Dr. James Rowland Angell, one time president of Yale university, now educational counselor for the National Broadcasting company. Dr. Angell is a native Vermontian who received his bachelor's degree at the University of Michigan, stayed on for his master's degree, took another at Harvard and has since been awarded doctor's degrees by 21 colleges and universities. He traveled and studied in Europe, was a student at the Universities of Berlin and Halle. In 1893 he began teaching as an instructor in philosophy at the University of Minnesota. Soon he became director of the psychology laboratory and rose to assistant NBC'S ANGELL In radio's realm he does not fear to tread and then associate professor. In 1905 he went to the University of Chicago as professor and head of the psychology department. He became senior dean in 1908 and from 1911 to 1919 was dean of the faculties. He was acting president in 1918-19. Yale called him to its presidency in 1921 and there he remained until his retirement in 1937. He has been with NBC since. Dr. Angell has been an officer or director of various psychological and educational associations. For his services to the Allies during the World war he was decorated by the French and Italian governments. He holds the gold medal of the National Institute of Social Science.

Prof. Henry C. Mills of the University of Rochester, one time Buffalo faculty member, was principal speaker. He gave a comprehensive report on the $500,000 study, and joined in an enthusiastic and sometimes heated forum on it. Another speaker was Dr. Earl J. McGrath, BA '28, MA '30, who has been on leave of absence from the university staff for the last year, while carrying on special work for the American Council on Education in Washington. After describing some of the activities of the National Youth commission, Alumnus McGrath emphasized the importance of teacher influence on youths decision to go to college, recommended that his listeners consider Buffalo as a logical place for boys and girls of superior mentality.

Justice Louis D. Brandeis has been pursuing a policy of disseminating parts of his personal library. Manifesting his interest in the University of Buffalo Law school, the jurist has made a gift of important legal documents, it was announced some time ago by Dean Francis M. Shea. There are thr**-briefs drawn by him. a quarter of a century ago in some famous litigation over maximum hours and minimum wages for women. The briefs marked the development of his special technique in presenting constitutional argument. Another important record is that of the committee investigating the BallingerPinchot controversy, in which Mr. Brandeis was counselor for Louis Glavis, and as such in substance presented the public's case against Ballinger's administration ■of Alaskan affairs. The hearings before the House committee investigating the U. S. Steel corporation in 1911, which played an important part in the subsequent prosecution of the corporation on anti-trust charges, are also represented. Another volume contains the record of hearings of the Senate committee on Interstate Commerce in 1912. It disclosed essential issues in the anti-monopoly struggle of that period. The briefs and records are all autographed, as are his own book on "Scientific Management," (1911), Carnahan's casebook on "Conflict of Laws" and the record of the Sacco-Venzetti case. Prof. Louis L. Jaffe and Prof. David Reisman Jr., of the Law school faculty, both have served as secretaries to Justice Brandeis. Buffalo on the Air Another pioneering job was credited to the university recently when it sponsored a series of radio round table discussions of the Regents' Inquiry into the Character and Cost of Public Education in New York State. The series was conceived in response to public demand for more light on the $500,000 survey, of which Chancellor Capen was associate director. The study was completed last year, and since that time the Inquiry staff's reports and recommendations have been appearing in book form. While the teaching profession is more or less aware of the import of the findings and recommendations the general public is not. Expensive Saturday night time was donated by Station WBEN, and specialists from the Inquiry staff, as well as parents, teachers and administrators from Western New York, participated in the panel discussions of the major issues, many of which are highly controversial. From the staff came Dr. Alonzo G. Grace, commissioner of education of the state of Connecticut, co-author of the volume on "State Aid and School Costs"; Thomas O. Marshall, MA '29 of Rochester, co-author of the volume on "When Youth Leave School"; Dr. Thomas L. Norton, university associate professor of economics, who wrote "Education for Work." and Dr. Capen. Several alumni were on the citizens' panel: Gerald A. Wilber, BS (Ed) *28, EdM '35, EdD '39, supervising principal of schools at Falconer, N. V.; William T. Hoag, AC 21, BS '22 EdM '34, supervising principal at Angola, N. V.; Helen R. Cornell, EdM "34, instructor in English at Hutchinson-Central high school; William J. Regan, LLB '18, EdM '36, principal of Buffalo Girls' Vocational high school, and Alumni Secretary William G. Cook, BS "27 who acted as master of ceremonies. Win Academic Awards Three new alumni have received academic awards for next year. Arthur Kemp, who got his bachelor's degree in business administration in February, has accepted a graduate assistantship at Northwestern university, while Stanley Klaiber, BA "38 has a similar appointment in the physics department at Yale. Helmuth Wedow Jr., BA '37, who has been graduate assistant in the geology department at Buffalo since his graduation, goes to Ohio State university on a scholarship which will enable him to work for a doctor's degree. He had his choice of offers from Ohio State, and the Universities of Illinois, lowa and Oklahoma, and was an alternate for appointments at Northwestern and the University of Michigan. �3 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN Summer Session Completes First 25-Year Run Twenty-five years ago the Summer session was established as a hopeful and modest adjunct to the baby College of Arts and Sciences. Since then it has grown by leaps and bounds to a whacking institute attracting hundreds of undergraduates, alumni and friends. For six weeks they play, study, go on tours in Buffalo's traditionally clement mid-year weather. This year's silver anniversary session starts July 5, ends August 12. No believer in fanfare is its director, Education's Dean Leslie O. Cummings, robust Harvardian and ex-service man. He plans no special celebration, continues to make quiet announcements concerning things to come. Typical statement: "The Summer session is small enough to allow, and in fact stresses, personal contact with instructors. Every effort is made to make the entire life of the campus an essential part of the education of students. The recreational and social activities, as well as those of classrooms, the assembly program, the hours spent with friends in the student union, are all considered a part of the opportunity for enriching the social and intellectual life of students." To achieve such ends, all the resources of the university are available to studentsLaboratories are open, not only for regular instruction, but also for individual research by qualifying students. Library facilities are available day and night. Norton hall, center of social life, throws open its theater, its cafeteria, lounges, game rooms and reading rooms. Playing fields provide facilities for tennis, golf, archery and baseball. Friday night dances are a regular item. The assembly period, the third hour of each school day, is an integral part of the Summer session program. Lectures are developed around a central theme. The theme for the 1939 Summer session is The Techniques of Change for a Democracy. The division co-operates with various other divisions of the university in offering courses which are essentially equivalent in method, character and credit value to those of the regular year. Those divisions are the College, which embraces the committee on graduate study in arts and sciences; the School of Business Administration, the School of Education, the Library Science curriculum, the School of Medicine, the Division of Nursing and the School of Social Work. Inquiries regarding the degree procedures of these divisions should be addressed to the appropriate deans. The Summer session also co-operates with the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences and with St. Mary's School for the Deaf. Classes, with few exceptions, are held the university campus. The exceptions: Library science at Grosvenor library; bacteriology, orthopedics, electrotherapy, hyon He does DIRECTOR not plan a special celebration drotherapy, therapeutic exercise and medical aspects of social work at Edward J. Meyer Memorial hospital; teaching of the deaf at St. Mary's School for the Deaf, not far from campus; field courses in zoology at the Allegany School of Natural History in Allegany State park. The faculty includes a large number of the regular staff and is supplemented by visiting lecturers from other institutions and leading teachers and administrators from public school systems closely associated with the university. Among this year's visiting lecturers are E. Blanchard Brown, Rhode Island School of Design; Amy C. Smith, Buffalo public schools; Elizabeth Weiffenbach, director of university art courses, Buffalo public schools; James W. Milnor, Oyster Bay public schools; Kathleen F. Sherlock, Buffalo public schools; Mildred C. Green, Buffalo School of Fine Arts; Georgiana Maar, Garden City public schools; Floyd F.

Alexander, Hayes professor of natural science and as- sistant curator of education, Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences. Because many teachers enroll in the Summer session, an enterprise known as the Co-operative Youth group has proved exceedingly popular. It is made up of carefully selected high school students, who have the fun of being in college with few of its worries. They work with the education instructors in demonstration classes in the teaching of secondary school subjects. They assist enthusiastically in putting on the social and recreational program. They participate in such projects as movie-making and play-production. This year they will supply a 36-voice chorus under the direction of Director Wallace A. Van Lier, A special group of older youth this year will be drawn to co-operate with instructors in a new course bearing the title: "Experiment in Adjustment of Educational Offerings to Needs of Out-of-School Youth." School administrators, too, find things of value in the Summer session. For them the Administrators' Round table has been created. It gives an opportunity for a limited number to participate in timely discussions of educational questions facing them in the administration of their schools. Participation in discussions, for which some preparation is necessary, under leaders appearing in the assembly program, is facilitated by the use of carefully prepared discussion guides. The round table meets during the assembly hour, hears the speaker of the day, then holds its discussion for the rest of the morning and during lunch. Altogether ten such meetings are scheduled. In addition to the art courses, most of which are in techniques, an art lecture series on "Modern Trends in Art" will be given by Harry W. Jacobs, consultant in art education and supervisor in art education, Buffalo public schools. Students are admitted to the Summer session without examination. They may enroll in any course which, in the judgment of the instructor, they are qualified to enter by reason of previous training or experience. Courses are accepted toward degrees on the same basis as those of the regular sessions. Whether or not students are working for degrees, they receive certificates of attendance including statements of grades and credits for all courses taken. Student expecting to count credit toward a degree in another institution should secure in advance the written aproval of his proposed registration by the other institution. The tuition fee per semester hour of credit is $10. Norton hall membership fee for the six weeks is $1.50. There is a minimum charge of $25 for graduate students carrying on research work only, or for those in masters' or doctors' conferences only. �The Campus and Nearby Spots Where Summen Session Students aud Faculty Work afd Play Good courts invite play « of «">" An corner 0 *"'"■<"" oj >»c g <>*■> t'~'p-Al,eli'"" The I*""? i, A challenge lift* to a young artist '^ Art studios always reveal busy uc �Lanterns on Norton hall terrace invite friendship f j*""dayn Nonigh "on ***" hall have "'mosphere "<"> hall ,l C*'*Aw tress through „ ■ reveal busy workers Sketching is fun in a setting like this �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNAE Climaxing another successful year or" activity, the University of Buffalo Alumnae late in April held their annual banquet in Buffalo's Fairfax hotel.

Welcome ' BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION If anyone should understand that university operation has a business side, it is the Business Administration alumni. Thus Chancellor Capen was at home when he talked finances at the annual election din ncr of the Business Administration Alumni association early in May in the Fairfax hotel. "The decrease in large donations to private institutions is making it harder for the private college and university to survive.' PRESIDENTS Recently elected were top, Pharmacy's Alfieri, '23; at lower left. Alumnae's Mrs. Himmele, '34; lower right, Business AdministTOtoon's Stoll, "36. he declared. "Should the present trend continue, it may not be long before the publicly-supported institutions outnumber the privately-endowed institutions. "I think there is one character existing in the private-type institution that vastly outweighs those in the city and state institutions. That is the patriotism of the alumnus. Hardly one-third of the development that has taken place in the private organization would have occurred without the support of the alumnus. And if the alumnus continues to spread the atmosphere of interest and confidence in his school, the privately endowed institution will continue to live. Other speakers were Daniel W. Streeter, big game hunter; Athletic Director james E. Peele and Dean Ralph C. Epstein, who was toastmaster. Next year's officers: President, Marshall K. Stoll. BS (Ed) 36, star athlete, class president and all-round leader, who succeeds Robert E. Rich, 35; first vice president, Richard W. Collard, '35; second vice president, M. Elizabeth Coleman, '35; treasurer, Calvin T. Kraus, '35; secretary, J. Ray wood Johnston. '33; delegate to the General Alumni association, Riley P. O'Brien. '55; faculty representative. Assistant Dean Shaw Livermore. ' EDUCATION Planned for Commencement afternoon. June 14, in Norton hall, is the annual reception by the Alumni in Education, in honor of the new graduates of their division. Officers for 1939-40 will be elected then, too. To General Chairman Alice M. Kidder, EdM "36 and her committee goes credit for an eminently successful card party held in the Hotel Lafayette ballroom last month. The proceeds will make the beginning or a scholarship fund, and officers hope the party was the beginning of a series of such successful ones. Present officers are: President, Vincent A. Carberry, BS 21. EdM '33; vice president, Miss Kidder; secretary-treasurer, B Edward Heckman, BS (Ed) '35. LAW When, in 1938, the Law school and its alumni association sponsored a legal institute running for five successive nights, the project was purely experimental. Its success convinced its sponsors that the event should be permanent. The second annual law institute wa» held on the first five nights of May. To Hotel Buffalo trooped alumni of all vintages, to hear facultymen and visiting experts on problems in conflict of laws, criminal law, and the law of sales, to learn more about the new bankruptcy act and matters affecting the drafting of wills and trusts in New York state. On the sixth night the association had its annual dinner, with Dean Lloyd K. Garrison of the University of Wisconsin Law school, and Judge Charles E. Clark, former dean of the Yale Law school and judge of �3 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN the Second U. S. Grcuit Court of Appeals, as guest speakers. Dean Francis M. Shea presided. To Dean Shea and President Morey C. Bartholomew, '09, go full credit for developing a new educational service to lawyers of the Buffalo area. Law institutes are a new movement in the legal profession, which fill an important need. They are run without profit, require work and thought, and are helpful to young and old practitioners. They have been enthusiastically received wherever they have been set up. MEDICINE Continued popularity of the spring clinic was evidenced by the attendance of nearly 600, recorded at the fifth annual venture held by the Medical Alumni association in Hotel Statler April 22. From 9 o'clock in the morning until 5 o'clock that afternoon graduates, students and visitors from other institutions streamed in and out of the convention hall to hear the seven visiting specialists, and to join in round table discussions led by Buffalo facultymen. Under the new constitution of the association, officers are elected in even years. This being the odd year, President George E. Slotkin, '11 and his board will carry on until 1940. At the annual business meeting, the membership elected Harry C. Guess, '12, as delegate to the board of trustees of the General Alumni association. Nine classes held five-year reunions in various parts of the city the night before. The list, with the chairmen of events, follows: '94—Hotel Markeen, Milton Messenger; '99—Buffalo club, Louis J. Beyer; "04—Buffalo club, John F. Fairbairn. Harry N. Feltes, Julius Richter; '09—Hotel Statler, Benjamin Jacobson; 14—Hotel Lafayette, Herbert H. Bauckus; 19—Hotel Lafayette, Edgar C. Beck; '24—Hotel Statier, Milton G. Potter; '29—Buffalo club. Stockton Kimball; '34—Westbrook apartments, J. Edwin Alford. PHARMACY Only Buffalo graduate group which singles out members of its profession for special honors is the Pharmacy Alumni association. Last year it founded the Gregory Memorial medal for award to some Western New York pharmacist who personifies the ideal of service and integrity in his profession. This year's medal went to Buffalo Alumnus James A. Donovan, '11, popular Kenmore proprietor. "Jim" Donovan got his first drugstore job at the age of 13. He decided to study pharmacy, and had a store of his own within three years after graduation. He is a past president of the Greater Buffalo Drug club and the Buffalo Pharmaceutical association, and served as vice president of the Pharmacy Alumni association in 1933-34. He is the father of Betty Donovan Tuck, BA '33, LS '34. In presenting the award at the annual dinner in April, Dean A. Bertram Lemon, '13 said, "Alert, honest, persuasive, with the courage of his Irish ancestry and the insight and understanding of a statesman, he has constantly fought for equitable trade practices in pharmacy and the management of those who will not adhere to ;. reasonable code of ethics and common decency.' Officers elected for next year were: President, Theodore A. Alfieri, '23 of Buffalo ; first vice president, J. Raymond Bressler, "20 of Rochester; second vice president, Leo F. Redden, '23 of Buffalo and secretary-treasurer, Madeline T. Schnabel, '22 of Buffalo. Retiring President J. Sinclair Hill, '26 of Niagara Falls and Ethel I. Woodward, '11 of Buffalo go on the executive committee, while Carleton P. Vernier, '33 of Buffalo goes to the board of trustees of the General Alumni association. The dinner ended the second annual twoday clinic to which scores of alumni from the Buffalo area came for professional refreshment. Unique Poets' Corner A new experimental course in British and American poetry—using original manuscripts, worksheets and notebooks, will be offered by the College this fall. The course is made possible by the university's unique collection of typical and significent materials supplied by more than 150 poets in the last year. Financed by two grants from the Carnegie Corporation of New York, {Bulletin, April ), Librarian Charles D. Abbott has visited the British Isles where he arranged for deposits by more than 100 British poets, and although the American part of the collection has scarcely been started, approximately 80 individuals have already contributed or agreed to contribute certain of their original creations to the university. The materials are stored in the Lockwood Memorial library. Librarian Abbott, who is also professor of English, will teach the new course, which will enroll a limited number of selected students. His hope is that there will grow out of it a graduate seminar for the more intensive study of the process of composition. The course will be based on the critical, appreciative and creative approach to the works of modern contemporaries. Since the materials are not fair and final copies, but genuine trial notes, rough drafts, corrected copies and random scrawls bearing on the poems, the student will get closer to tfie creative mechanism of the artist than the reader of the final printed copy ever could. The list of British contributors reads like a literary Who's Who. It includes such distinguished names as Padraic Colum, Walter de la Mare, Lord Dunsany, Oliver St. John Gogarty, Aldous and Julian Huxley and Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch. Among the Americans are Robert Frost, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Louis Untermeyer, Leonora Speyer, Genevieve Taggard and Louise Bogan. Alumni News Brevities '84 MD-Wallace J.

Alumni Club Starts Scholarship Drive Rhodes Type Foundation Is Plan Optimism pervades the University of Buffalo Alumni club, which is about to launch a drive for members whose dut-s will build up the new plan. scholarship fund. President Walter S. Behrens, DDS '30 points out that with the Rhodes type scholarship approved in principle by university authorities, the way is clear for every graduate to contribute to the project. Workers are being organized into groups for each school and division. In timetested campaign fashion they will contact the alumni throughout the Buffalo area, offering various classes of membership from associate at $2 a year to endowment at $2 50. Another committee will report shortly on the mechanics of the administration of the funds. Tentative plans embrace the organization of an alumni foundation of which the object would be the raising of current and endowment funds, investment of endowment and surplus and selection of scholarship material. Leaders propose that a' board of trustees shall administer affairs of the foundation. The board would be composed of three members of the University council, eight members of the Alumni council, two faculty members and two civic leaders. Scholarships would be awarded on the basis of scholastic ability, leadership and extra-curricular excellence. The Alumni club was organized in 1920, and for 11 years met in its own club house on North street. By 1931 the depression had taken such a toll of membership that the club gave up its house. A .few- sur-- -: vivors nursed the flagging spirit of' the organization, held meetings where they could get room. They reduced the dues to $2 a year and held a successful membership campaign in 1936. Encouraged by the response to an appeai for support of a program of student aid, the club holds frequent meetings, has busy committees, and is working closely with the university administration. Biggest lift to its hopes was given last fall when the University council re-affirmed its policy tflward student assistance in these words: "Resolved: That the Council of the University of Buffalo approves the creation of scholarships by organized groups of alumni of the university, the recipients of which may be designated by the organizations providing the scholarships, subject in each case to the approval of the university committee on scholarships and loans." ■ 408 Clinton St..

Both were made in recognition of cultural projects begun experimentally at the university some time ago. The sum of $23,000 is given for development of the program of fine arts which the university has been conducting in co-operation with the Buffalo School of Fine Arts and the Albright Art gallery. The university now grants two degrees for work done in the field of fine arts —bachelor of fine arts and, for those who intend to teach, bachelor of science in education. The university also assists the art gallery on its adult education program. One of its major contributions has been the lecture series on history of art, by John I. Sewall, professorial lecturer in art. The second gift—sl7,ooo—will allow the university to enlarge its unique library of books and manuscripts of modern poetry. This project was begun in the spring of 1938, when Librarian Charles D. Abbott went to England and accumulated manuscripts and work sheets of more than 100 English poets. He will now undertake a similar project among contemporary American poets. a trust The collection has caused wide comment in scholarly and literary circles. Its purpose is to preserve manuscripts and worksheets of poets from 1880 to the present day. They will represent in the most complete fashion possible the poetic activity of the period for the benefit of future students of our times, and will show the progress of creative thought of literary persons. The British poets were highly enthusiastic about the idea and every single one interviewed contributed or promised to deposit manuscripts in the Lockwood Memorial library's archives. The project got considerable space in the British newspapers, and is now attracting visitors from American colleges and universities, some of whom are setting up imitations in their own libraries. Mr. Abbott has already received manuscripts from more than 40 American poets, and the grant will make it possible for him to comb the country in person for many more. This is the second time the Carnegie corporation has appropriated money for the two projects. In 1934 the university received a gift of teaching materials in fine arts valued at $5000, and it was a grant of $1500 in 1937 which enabled the university to start its poetry collection last year. Guest of honor at the annual meeting of the New York Dental Alumni association was Associate Dean Russell W. Groh, '18. Approximately 50 practitioners from the metropolitan area enthusiastically applauded his message, drank toasts to their Alma Mater, stood for a minute of silent prayer for the late Edward P. Stanton, '11 of New York, and elected officers. Bernard Katzenstein, '18, of New York, succeeds David B. Jacobs, '18 of Far Rockaway as FATZENSTEIN, '18 president, and Albert C. Dumke, "17 of Beacon becomes secretary-treasurer. The nominating committee was headed by Harold S. Horton, '14, of Brooklyn. WASHINGTON Celebrating the first anniversary of its reorganization, members of the Washington Alumni club held a luncheon in the Women's City club in February. Center of attraction on the table was a big cake iced in white with blue trimming, topped with irises and a solitary candle. President Evelyn Kunkle Welling, BA '27 officiated at the cake-cutting ceremonial. Then lights were dimmed and university campus movies were run off by Frederick F.

CAPITAL CITY CLUB WRITES FOR APHA JOURNAL A recent issue of the Journal of the American Pharmaceutical Association cariied an article by George W. Fiero, PhD '31 on "Hydrogenatecl Caster Oil in Ointments—Product of Sulfonation." �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Minor Sports Fared Best This Season FOOTBALL "The news that Fritz Febel as line coach next fall removed another cloud from the rapidly clearing gridiron skies of the Blue and White, with equipment issued to 44 candidates, most of whom have been reporting daily." Thus spoke the Bee in mid-April about spring football practice, which has been under way nearly a month. Utilizing the dirt floor of the Alumni Swimming pool pit, Head Coach Jim PeeMe has been able to start practice earlier than ever before, and was so heartened over the squad's condition by Ash Wednesday that he called off practice during the Easter holidays. Outdoor practice was to be started on resumption of instruction. Whether an alumni-varsity game would be played on Moving Up day, May 6, was still in doubt. If such a contest cannot be arranged this year, two picked teams will play a regulation game as a climax to the day's activities. The 1939 schedule, still incomplete, follows: Home Sept. 30—Susquehanna Home Oct. 7—C. C. N.

McMaster university offered an easy 40-19 victory. Then came a string of ten straight defeats before Hamilton succumbed 62-40. In the final game of the season, a Hobart substitute sank a heave in the last 35 seconds of play, giving the Statesmen a 39-37 tri- umph. Lanky Morley Townsend finished in second place for district scoring honors, accumulating 163 points or an average of 13.58 points per game. He was named All-District selections. center on the area newspaper FENCING After winning six out of eight matches the Buffalo foilsmen decided to enter the Eastern Intercollegiate Fencing tournament at Dartmouth in March. Finishing eighth in a field of 16 colleges, they had the thrill of seeing George Lesser win 12 consecutive epee matches and upset the defending titlist for Class A championship. Earlier in the day he had narrowly missed the sabei crown, bowing only to the final victor, an Olympic team member. Lesser is himself being mentioned for the U. S. team in the 1940 Olympics. WRESTLING The varsity grapplers also got tournament fever after winning five matches, tying one and losing one. They entered the Tri-State Intercollegiate meet at Case, where Sid Warren took a third place medal in the 135-pound class. .. . . . . ..

JIMMY GRIFFIN DEAD A faithful follower of the Blue and White squads has passed. At the age of 53, Jimmy Griffin, athletic trainer for more than 20 years, died of heart disease on March 26. He had been suffering severely for the last two years, but had managed to carry on between attacks. Jimmy attended Canisius college and Niagara university, was a star baseball and football player and after college was a minor league catcher and an International league umpire.

Crowley of Hartford. Behrens New President A few short years ago the Block B dinner was an annual event to which alumni, faculty and students always looked forward. Recent sessions have gone by with very little such public recognition of the athletic teams. Lately the Alumni club has done something along those lines, though the gathering has usually been modest, quiet and small. This year the Block B dinner seemed like old times. When graduates, athletes, facultymen and townsfolk sat down, they jammed the Hotel Buffalo ballroom. Roast chicken and ice cream were disposed of. Then Ex-Football and Basketball Captain James J. Ailinger, DDS '25 called the meeting to order and introduced Ralph Hubbell, prominent Buffalo sports announcer. Toastmaster Hubbell presented Chancellor Capen, who made the letter awards; Football Coach Charley Bachman of Michigan State college and Biffy Lee who was Buffalo coach ten years ago. It was Lee who sounded the most optimistic note about Buffalo's future, and who reminded his listeners that the university administration's much misunderstood attitude toward ethical athletics was as favorable ten years ago as it is now. Alumni club members were so pleased with the job of Walter S. Behrens, DDS '30 as general chairman of the dinner, that at the annual meeting a few nights later they elected him president. He succeeds Allen R. Long, MD '21, who has seen the club through a trying period of reactivation. Other officers for 1939-40 are: Vice president. Freshman Basketball Coach Robert P. Harrington, LLB '32; secretary, Harold M. Baumler, LLB '26; treasurer, Arnott A. Moore, DDS '15. The dinner outlined some of the athletic plan which President Behrens and his board now intend to carry through. An attempt will be made to raise the membership from 500 to 2000 by next fall, with membership fees going into the new fund for Rhodes type scholarships. 92 MD—Barton T. McDowell of Bristol Cen[cr.

WORLD'S FAIR VISITORS NOTE Buffalo civic leaders are sponsoring a campaign to persuade Western and Middle Western visitors to the New York World's fair to travel by way of Buffalo. They point to the city as an ideal stopping place in summer, on a scenic route which can easily include Niagara Falls. An additional attraction to alumni living west of the city is the location of the university campus on Route 5, the principal east-west thoroughfare. Those who have not been back since the site was occupied in 1921 will find something worth inspecting. The Buffalo Junior Chamber of Commerce is urging alumni of the Buffalo area to invite friends and business contacts by using miniature photostickers, one of which is reproduced below. They may be obtained from the Junior chamber at small cost. Council Voting Nears Three alumni members of the University council and one representative of the Athletic council will be chosen in the annual postal elections next month. Notice to that effect went out in the mails a fortnight ago to the 8800 degree-holding alumni of the university.

They must be filed with the secretaries of the two councils at Townsend hall on or before May 1. Immediately thereafter, all voters will receive biographical sketches of the candidates, with instructions to cast their ballots by the end of the month.

They represented persons who received degrees, diplomas or certificates in the mid-year commencement exercises on University day. Twenty-nine persons who had received other screeds in previous years, brought the mid-year class up to 149, largest in the university's history. To David Lawrence, editor, publisher, political commentator and author, went the 12th edition of the Chancellor's medal. David Lawrence grew up in Buffalo and began there the journalistic career which today makes him known to millions of Americans. He was associated with the old Buffalo Express during his high school career, and became Princeton correspondent of the Associated Press while in college. He joined the A. P. staff in Washington in 1910, covered revolutions in Mexico, the Wilson presidential campaign and other exciting events. Later as Washington correspondent of the New York Evening Post he received wide acclaim for his coverage and accurate forecasting of results of the 1916 presidential conventions; covered the Peace conference after the war and traveled in Great Britain and Italy with President Wilson. In 1919 he established his own press association, the Consolidated PresSj and in 1926 founded the United States Daily, a newspaper published in Washington and devoted to reporting the affairs of government without comment or interpretation. In 1933 it became a weekly. Mr. Lawrence is best known for his syndicated column of opinion which is printed in approximately 150 newspapers with an aggregate circulation of approximately 7,500,000. Speaker of the occasion was President Edmund Ezra Day of Cornell, whose ringing address on "What Threatens American Democracy" was widely reported in the daily press. Most striking figure in the academic procession, which each year becomes more colorful, was Chancellor Capen who wore the red gown of a doctor of laws from McMaster university. to bring guests. NEW CAP AND GOWN HEAD Mrs. Marion Macdonald Kelleran, BA *26, onetime editor of the Bee and other- wise active undergraduate, was elected chairman of the alumnae members of Cap and Gown, women's honorary society, at the annual dinner recently. Margaret L. Holmes, BA '29, the university's personnel adviser for women, was elected secretarytreasurer. Kurtz Book Praised Many favorable comments have come to Dr. Leonard P. Kurtz, assistant professor of Romance languages, on his new book, Beyond No Man's Land. Dr. William Lyon Phelps of Yale, Dr. John L. Grieg of Columbia and Dr. Louis Cons of Harvard are among those who have offered commendations. The book presents a memoir of Dr. Kurtz' World war service with the A. E. F. his capture by the Germans and his experiences as a prisoner of the Central powers. TWELFTH MEDALIST Former Buffalonian David Lawrence receives the university's accolade. �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 2 in Defenses Students Favor Increase Policy Approved American Foreign With straw pols now claiming wide attention, the Bee. undergraduate weekly, has made a survey of student opinion on national politics and American foreign poliq', with some interesting results. Political preferences were registered as follows: Liberal Republicans 30 per cent; New Deal 18 per cent; Republicans 17 per cent; Conservative Democrats 8 per cent; Socialists 7 per cent. Twenty per cent had no preference. Eighty-two per cent favored increases in national defenses. New Dealers and those without preference voted heavily in the affirmative. Eighty per cent approved the administrations^ policy of making the country more war conscious, but the Socialists split evenly on the question. Seventy-eight per cent disapproved the sale of airplanes, guns and other munitions containing new military secrets to France and England. Sixty-five per cent favored the Roosevelt policy of moral discrimination against totalitarian states, with the New Deal's friends overwhelmingly affirmative. Fifty-eight per cent said no to the question: Do you favor discrimination in the sale of war supplies? The dissenting group consisted of Republicans, Liberal Republicans and Socialists. The Bee's report does not indicate whether the vote reflects the sentiments of the parents.

It was delivered at the joint dinner of the trustees of the General Alumni association and the members of the Alumni council on University day. By Jane C. O'Mallcy, DDS '23 In accepting the presidency of the General Alumni association of the University of Buffalo, there are two widely different elements that I think must be considered and emphasized. The first is, naturally, the honor done me. At this I cannot curtsy deeply enough, and coming as it does, from the hands of my fellow alumni, it arouses in me a surge of loyal devotion as well as of gratitude. But if this were all, how slight would be my labor now and hereafter! The task of wearing an honor gracefully is hardly distasteful or difficult for a woman. Though she may cavil, womanwise, at the pattern of a coronet, she will teach herself to adjust her head and her hair to it, and the poise of her neck, too, in a surprisingly short time and with surprisingly little trouble. But this is not all. And to show how deeply conscious I am of the other element, namely, of the responsibility of this office, let me begin by developing what is meant by an alumni body. If all the graduates of a college or university when their degrees are rolled and signed and handed to them, cast into a corner the memories of their student days together with discarded gowns and textbooks—if they settled down to forgetting all they learned, and erased to smoothness the stamp that college has given them, then I am president of an army of unsubstantial shadows and have nothing more to do than wear my honor like a ribbon that flashes in the sunlight and flutters in the breeze. But this is not true and roar from many throats throughout the land. the denial would like a tempest The alumni body of a university is the university itself spread far beyond her gates in circles that widen and widen and widen with the years. It is the wisdom of the university finding flesh-and-blood expression in the lives of men and women, who are living what they have learned. It is the sacred honor of the university set forth, not in the lifeless pages of commencement speeches, but in deeds that leaven, and uplift the age that witnesses them. It is the love of the university burning active and warm in the hearts of her fledglings who have never forgotten, never have lost touch with the aerie where their wings grew strong. No army of unsubstantial shadows, then is it mine to be president of. Going now more into detail, we have alumni here in our great city of Buffalo, we have alumni in other cities and in foreign lands. Let them establish contact with us so that we may know more than their mere numbers. There are alumni bodies that represent the different professions, that represent commerce which has come to be no mean profession. Let them keep us apprised of their achievements; they are Buffalo men and Buffalo women. Then we have social organizations to keep alumni in touch one with the other, one and all with Alma Mater. We would be informed of their doings and their plans. Finally, there is the university itself with her wide campus that grows ever more historic. With her we pledge ourselves to keep in contact, seeking guidance and inspiration. These last we can never lack while such a man as our esteemed Chancellor Capen sits at the helm guiding the destinies of the University of Buffalo, aided by his able and scholarly faculty and council. My definite duty and warm ambition, alumni of the University of Buffalo, is to unite more closely, so as to urge forward in more compact phalanx all the elements in our great alumni body. Explicitly I bespeak the aid of the Alumni council, that I may reach all or be reached by all, overlooking none. I would have a far-flung movement of awakening, of rising to our feet, of grasping the weapons we have learned to use, and then., forward Buffalo men and women, forward on every front, forward in the cause of a higher civilization!

Dr. Machlup is on leave of absence this semester, and is teaching at Harvard. Medics Meet April 22 First announcements concerning the Medical Alumni association's fifth annual spring clinical day and 64th anniversary banquet were sent out a few days ago by President George E. Slotkin, MD '11. The held in the main ballroom of Buffalo's Statler hotel, starting at 8:30 ers includes Dr. Elmore B. Tauber, professor of dermatology at the Uni- versity of Cincin- Casparis, professor of pediatrics in the G M. SLOTKIN, '11 Vanderbuilt university School of Medicine; Dr. Edward H.

Mock, associate professor of surgery, Northwestern university Medical school; Dr. E. Perry McCullagh, director of the department of endocrinology and metabolism at the Cleveland clinic and Dr. David L. Thomson, professor of biochemistry, McGill university. The program promises a splendid array of scientific exhibits. The usual noonday luncheon will be held, and the annual dinner in the evening will feature not one speaker, "but a whole show, which will not only be entertaining, but scientifically instructive." Classes which were graduated at fiveyear intervals from 1879 on will hold their quinquennial reunions the night before. Present records show that the Class of '79 has five survivors out of an original 43. Pool Fund Mounting Though no appeals for gifts to the Alumni Swimming pool fund have been made for nearly a year, contributions still continue to trickle in. The latest two are from Sidney S. M. Marks, DDS '18 and William S. Muehleck, DDS '37. Alumni frequently ask what was done with the money, since the campaign fell short of the amount necessary to build the pool in the new gymnasium. The last report of the comptroller shows the money safely held in trust by the university, and there the alumni leaders intend to leave it until it can be enlarged sufficiently to do the job. The comptroller's figures showed $8,876.07 on deposit as of June 30, 1938. The amount is now in excess of $9,000. Adding to it the campaign expenses and some pledges made during the drive brings the total figure reached by the workers up to $10,994.67. �4 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN PLEASE ALUMNI COUNCIL OFFICERS Charles Diebold Jr., LLB '97, chairman: E.

His subject will be "What Threatens American Democracy?" The ceremonies will include also the presentation of the Chancellors medal to some person, as yet unrevealed, who has distinguished Buffalo in the eyes of the world. A sizable group of new alumni will receive diplomas and certificates. Dr. Day's coming to Buffalo is in line with the university's practice of presenting the new presidents of neighboring institutions from the commencement platform. Dr. Day has spent 32 years in higher education. He holds bachelor's and master's degrees from Dartmouth, a doctors degree from Harvard and honorary doctor's degrees from Dartmouth, Harvard, Syracuse and Pennsylvania. He has been chairman of the department of economics at Harvard, dean of the School of Business Administration at Michigan, expert economics adviser to the United States government and director of the Federal Reserve bank. He was inaugurated at Cornell in 1937. The Chancellor's medal is Buffalo's sole honorary award. It has been presented almost every year since 1922 to some Buffalonian or former resident whose achievements have brought renown to the city. It was founded by the late Chancellor Charles P. Norton. February, 1939 Hospital Renamed for Buffalo Alumnus Late Edward J. Meyer Honored by City The Buffalo City hospital last month lost its name and was given a new one in memory of a University of Buffalo alumnus. By action of the City council the institution will be henceforth known as the Edward J. Meyer Memorial hospital. The change was proposed by the board of managers through Superintendent Walter S. Goodale, MD '03. He said: "The establishment of the Buffalo City hospital, its policies, its methods of operation, and much of the success it has attained are monuments to the devotion, ability and foresight of the late Dr. Meyer. "When Dr. Meyer began the practice of medicine in Buffalo, he was one of a very small group of men who had been properly grounded in medical and surgical practice according to modern standards. In the middle of his career and after ac- quiring a reputation as one of the outstanding surgeons of Western New York, he was appointed to membership on the board of managers, Buffalo City hospital, and immediately elected president. "Here Dr. Meyer's talents were evident from the beginning. His devotion to the institution was almost fanatical and it never lessened until the day he died. Buffalonians owe him a debt of gratitude which will be repaid in part if at this time the institution which he served for more than 24 years is named in his memory." Edward J. Meyer, MD '91, died in 1935 the peak of his career. He had been 42 years a member of the Medical school faculty and an eminent benefactor of the university. His widow, Mrs. S. Margaret Berrick Meyer gave substantially to the Alumni Swimming Pool fund in his memat ory. MEDICAL MEETING SET The annual spring meeting and clinical day of the Medical Alumni association will be held in Buffalo April 22. GUEST OF NEW YORKERS Chancellor Capen was among the presidents and officers of 72 American, Canadian and English universities who were guests of honor at a recent dinner of the University club of New York City. Former President Herbert Hoover and John D. Rockefeller Jr., were among those honored. The speakers included President Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia university and Thomas C. Lamont, banker.

Birthday Plans Traditional a'umni celebration of University day will be repeated this year, in the form of d joint dinner of the Alumni council and the General Alumni association's board of trustees. Though University day is actually the general associations birthday, circumstances have more than once caused the celebration to be held on some nearby date which was more convenient. Thus, announcement that this year's dinner will be held on Monday evening, Feb. 20, in Norton hall, is not without precedent. Ever since her election as president of the association, Jane C. O'Malley, DDS '23, has been seeking means of resolving the confusion which her colleagues sense in the a'umni mind. To put the association on a solid footing and develop a program of interest to more alumni, she believes a plan of re-organization may be necessary. Some study already has been made, and the beginning of a plan has been evolved. To discuss the problem with the alumni body's representatives on the University council seemed the next logical step. This Alumni Council Chairman Charles Diebold Jr., LLB '97, also thought sensible. So notices have been sent to the members of the two groups, which are the only two official, central agencies of alumni effort. What will merge from the discussion is unpredictable, but it is safe to say that the two groups will be in accord on one fundamental objective—the welfare of the university through its alumni. Branch Clubs to Hold Spring Meetings Capen, Groh and Wylegala to Speak BINGHAMTON The annual dinner meeting of the Southern Tier Alumni association is scheduled for Saturday, Feb. 25 in Binghamton.

It explains to those who hare contributed to the institution's support, what progress has been made possible by their generosity. The University of Buffalo is a public institution. Although it is supported by voluntary donations and by fees, the services that it renders are public services. They touch the life of nearly every citizen of Buffalo. The quality of the services rendered to the citizens of Buffalo in the professions of medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, nursing, law, teaching, business technology and social welfare depends to a large degree upon the quality of the University of Buffalo, because that institution prepares the majority of local practitioners in all of these professions. The citizens of this community, therefore, must be deeply concerned with the efficiency of the university and with the adequacy of the opportunities that it provides for general and for professional higher education. The citizens have already shown that they realize the importance of the university to the life of the community. In fact the University of Buffalo is more exclusively the creation of the city whose name it bears than is any other privately controlled university in the United States. It is 92 years old, but during the first 74 years of its existence it had no endowment. It lived on student fees and occasional contributions from friends. In 1920, and again in 1929, the council ot the university appealed to the whole community for the resources needed to enable the institution to carry out its function of furnishing higher liberal and professional education to those young people of this region who were unable to seek such education elsewhere. The response of the community to these appeals has never been equalled. The University of Buffalo, as it is today, is a monument to the altruism and civic patriotism of the citizens of Buffalo. The following table gives a bird's-eye view of some of the developments which the contributions of the citizens of Buffalo have made possible during the 18-year period since the first general appeal for funds was made: GROWTH IN EIGHTEEN YEARS - lumber of students enrolled 1265 4945 lumber of tull-cime members of ■faculties __.-. *30 129 lumber of colleges and professional schools in the university 11 organization 5 ~ lumber of buildings on campus 0 12 lumber of buildings downtown— 4 4 Jumber of books and pamphlets 43,074 237,248 in libraries The new divisions of the university, established since 1920, are the School of Business Administration, the School of Education, the School of Social Work, Millard Fillmore college, the Summer session, and the Division of Nursing. The new buildings erected by the university since 1920 are Foster hall, the gift of Orin E. Foster and family; Crosby hall, the gift of William H. Crosby and family.; Lockwood Memorial library, the gift of Thomas B. Lockwood and Marion Birge Lockwood; Norton hall, erected through a-bequest of the late Chancellor Charles P. Norton; the Irwin B. Clark Memorial gymnasium, erected through a bequest of the late Evelyn Howes Clark; the Central Heating plant, Service building, and University Book store. No buildings have been built except to provide facilities urgently needed for the instruction or the recreation of students. The council of the university has endeavored to apply as large a percentage as possible of all unrestricted gifts to the building up of a permanent endowment fund. Theincome from the invested funds, as was pointed out in the 1938 Report of the Chancellor, is only 21.3 percent of the total income of the university. The remainder comes from fees paid by students. The stability of the university is in constant jeopardy as long as so large a proportion of its income is derived from student fees. The most pressing need of the university is for unrestricted additions to its endowment fund to enable it to maintain its existing standards and to expand its instructional services. When citizens consider their income tax liability for the calendar year, those who are in a position to do so think of the gifts they can make for religious, charitable, and educational purposes. A gift to the University of Buffalo is a deductible contribution up to 15 per cent of the donor's income, and comes from the highest bracket of the donor's income, whether the tax rate on such bracket be 12 per cent or 79 per cent. A bequest to the university is also exempt from the inheritance taxes which range from 2 per cent to 70 . per cent. No institution will administer such gifts and bequests more effectively for the welfare of this community as a whole than will the University of Buffalo, which has operated on a balanced budget during these depression years. The university deserves the support of all good citizens on the basis of its accomplishments and its potentialities for even greater usefulness.

Bureau Urges Job Seekers to Register Positions Unfilled for Lack of Applicants University personnel officers have repeat- ed the invitation to alumni seeking employment or improvement in their jobs. to register with the Alumni Placement service. This service has been in operation for several years, and operates in Edmund Hayes hali under the joint direction of Margaret L. Holmes, BA 29 and Richard J. R. Morris, BA "35. "The Alumni Placement service is designed to serve alumni from the time of graduation," Mr. Morris points out. "Any alumnus who is unemployed B. J. R. MORRIS, '35 or who wants to seek a position better than his present one. should register with the Placement office, 192 Hayes hall. This of course does not assure placement. The Placement office cannot work miracles. It cannot find jobs which do not exist, nor can it place people in positions for which they are not qualified. "However, frequently employers do call us for especially qualified people who can fill good jobs. During the past months we have had three positions paying $3000 a year. We were able to fill but one. because suitable people had not registered with us. We can only refer to the employer those people who have indicated to us that they are interested and have given us some record of their qualifications. Therefore, unemployed alumni or others interested in possible position openings, should register with this office. Registration does not ensure employment, but it does assure that you will not be overlooked if suitable jobs become available. "The Placement service is a co-operative enterprise. Not only does it need suitable applicants, but more jobs. It would seem that many alumni should be in a position to refer to us jobs which are available in the organization with which they may be connected. In other universities a large proportion of placement is made through alumni employers. Any alumnus who has been employed for a few years must come in contact with jobs which could be filled by students of this university. If this were brought to our attention, he would be rendering a service to his Alma Mater. "The Alumni Placement service has been organized to serve alumni. However, to succeed, it must have alumni co-operation. If you want a job, register with this office. If you know of an available job, please inform us so that we may refer a fellow alumnus to it." Where Are They Now? Mail addressed to the following alumni has been returned for lack of correct addresses.

New Branch Club Looms at Pittsburgh Formal organization of Buffalo'snewest alumni branch club will take place in Pittsburgh in February. All graduates within a 60-mile radius of the Golden triangle are being invited to hear ChancellorCapen and representatives of academic institutions in the vicinity, to set up a club and elect officersfor the coming year. Two informal gatherings of alumni already have been held in the last fortnight. CharlesJ. Barone,MD '15 of Pittsburgh was host at the first, where Alumni Secretary William G. Cook, BS '27 described the university's progressand displayed the 1939 edition of the moving picture, "On the Campus." At that meeting Geoge F. Reusch,MD '08 of Pittsburgh was chosen chairman and William J. Baldwin, BS "26 of Ingram, secretary of the organization movement. The second gathering, at which final plans were laid, was held in the home of Thomas M. Heard Jr., MD '99, Mt. Lebanon. There are approximately 40 alumni in the area, which embraces Youngstown, 0.. and Wheeling, W. Va. Three meetings are pending in Central and SouthernNew York state*. Following a tour of the region, Talman W. Van Arsdale Jr., BA '38, Alumni officeassistant, reports that preliminary' committee meetings are scheduled late this month in Syracuse. Utica and Binghamton. The Elmira group also anticipates an early start on plans. The Washington, D. C, club celebrates its birthday Feb. 4. A feature of the meeting will be the university cinema. Dr. ClarenceS. Marsh of the American Council on Education was this month's speaker. Are there too many alumni organizations in the Buffalo structure? That is the question now being studied for solution by a special committee of the General Alumni association. Convinced that interest in alumni activities is directly proportional to understanding of objectives and organizational setup, President Jane C. O'Malley, DDS '23 seeks an answer by University day, the association's 24th birthday. Heading the study committee is stocky, baldish Homer A. Trotter, PhG '09, MD '15, whose friendly chuckle is known to many a club and society, professional and social, and whose attitude toward alumni activity is shaded by his belief that the university belongs not to -he alumni and students,but to the whole community. All divisions are represented in the other members of the committee: Winifred C. Stanley, BA '30, LLB '33 (Alumnae); Waring A. Shaw,BA '31 (Arts president) Richard W. Collard. BS (Bus) '35 (Business); SamuelA. Gibson,DDS '21 (Dentistry president); Harry I. Good, BS (Bus) "27, EdM '31 (Education); Morey C. Bartholomew,LLB '09 (Law president) ; VicePresident Edward L. Schwabe,PhG '28. BS (Phar) '32, MA '36 (Pharmacy). President O'Malley and Secretary William G. Cook, BS '27 are ex-orficiomembers. That the committee will continue the investigation of alumni-universityco-operation begun a yearago, is a certainty. Whether athletics will be included is doubtful, since that problem is now in the hands of the Alumni Club, Inc. The GeneralAlumni association,however, may safely claim credit for initiating the chain of events which resulted in the present encouraging state of athletic affairs, for the whole question was laid out for dissection at the dinner of alumni leaders and university representatives last University day. John S. Allan, BS '27, LLB '30, was president then. President O'Malley also has appointed the executive committee for the current year. It includes LaVerne H. Brucker,DDS '21; Denis C. Harrington, LLB '18, secretary of the Law association;George E. Slotkin, MD '11, president of the Medical association; James R. Clark, BS (Bus) '31; Dr. O'Malley and Members Good,Schwabe and ; Cook. �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 2 To the Council of the University of Buffalo: I have the honor to submit the report of the chancellor for the academic year 1937-38: Summary The principal developments which have taken place in the university or in any part of its divisions during the year under review and the most important events in the life of the institution are briefly summarized below: The total enrollment of 4945 represented an increase of 4.13 per cent over the enrollment of the preceding year. For the sixth consecutive year the university lived within its income and finished the fiscal year with a surplus of 538,581.28 in its operaring account. The first law institute for the benefit of the alumni of the Law school was held during the week of May 23 in connection with the celehration of the 50th anniversary of the founding of the school. The 25th anniversary of the founding of the College of Arts and Sciences was celebrated on May 14 by a conference on problems confronting colleges of liberal arts. Departments ot public administration and of city planning and housing were established in the School of Social Work. A City Planning Research station was established under the joint sponsorship of the university and the City Planning association. Enrollment in graduate courses leading to degrees and in short post-graduate courses tot professional practitioners increased 37 per cent. Action by the Board of Education of the city of Buffalo requiring 30 semester hours of work beyond the bachelor's degree for prospective teachers in the secondary schools of the city affected the enrollment in graduate courses in the College of Arts and Sciences and the School of Education. The Work-Study plan was inaugurated for the benefit of superior students who cannot otherwise secure a university education. The Board of Health of the city of Buffalo tendered to the department of hygiene and public health in the Medical and Dental schools its facilities for general teaching and field work in connection with the graduate and post-graduate instruction of physicians, dentists and nurses. The co-operation between the Schools oi Medicine and Dentistry and the Buffalo City hospital was further extended. The departments of anatomy, bio-chemistry, physiology and pharmacology undertook to offer instruction to the house staff of the hospital; and the faculty of the Dental school organized from its membership a post-graduate faculty to give special training to the hospital's staff of dental interns. The School of Dentistry entered into an agreement with the BuffaloChildren's hospital under which the hospital's dental clinic will be operated as a teaching unit of the school. Following the plan adopted last year lor the direction of the departmenr of general medicine, the administration of the department of surgery in the Medical school was placed in the hands of a committee consisting of a chairman and the professors in charge of surgical teaching in the Buffalo City hospital and the Buffalo General hospiral. The School of Pharmacy entered into an agreement with the Buffalo City hospital under which the school co-operates in the conduct ot the pharmacy connected with the hospital and is thereby enabled to give cerrain of its students special training in the operation of a hospital pharmacy. With the aid of a grant from the Carnegie corporation the librarian of the Lockwood Memorial library has assembled a unique and nearly complete collection of representative manuscripts The State of the University {from tbe Chancellor's Report) and working papers of contemporary English poecs. The Foster lectures on chemistry and allied subjects, inaugurated in the spring of 1957 under the O. E. Foster Lecture fund, brought to the university for brief periods of service a group of disringuished scientists from other institutions. The Irwin B. Clark Memorial gymnasium, furnishing ample facilities for the athletic activities of both men and women students and for the instructional uses of the departmenr of hygiene and physical education, was nearly com- pleted. A chapter of the honorary society Phi Beta Kappa was installed in the College of Arts and Sciences. A chapter of the honorary society Phi Delta Kappa was installed in the School of Education. A chapter of the honorary society of Omicron Kappa Upsilon was installed in the School of Dentistry. To balance the budget for the year 1938-39 the council was obliged to apply more than halfof the operating surplus of the year 1937-58. It is appropriate to comment somewhat at length on certain of the items in this summary. Enrollment and Finances The total enrollment of 4945, the largest in the history of the university, represents an increase of 4.13 per cent over the enrollment of the preceding year. The largest increases occurred in the full-time day divisions of the university. The gain in all of the regular day divisions combined was 6.31 per cent. The total enrollment of 1905 persons for the year under review was within eight of the largest number ever enrolled in these divisions. The enrollment in the Millard Fillmore college registered a gain of 6.62 per cent. The enrollment in the Summersession declined 4.17 per cent. Fees received from students constitute the chief source of the university's income. For some yearsthey have represented between 70 per cent and 80 per cent of the income. A gain in the enrollment of fulltime students,such as has occurred during the past year, affects the university's income more favorably than an even larger gain in the number of part-time students registered in the Millard Fillmore college or in the Summersession. The report of the comptroller shows that the income from tuition fees during the year under review was $47,228.38 greater than that received during the year 1936-37. Notwithstanding the decline in interest rates which affectsthe yield from the endowment funds, the trend of the university's income is slowly upward. In addition to the steady increase in fee income during the past four years the university has continued to be the recipient of numerous gifts and bequests, some of these very substantial. It has continued to live absolutely within its means in a time when many privately endowed institutions have operated with annual deficits. It has continued to expand and improve its services. It has even been able to undertake essential reconstructions in several of its divisions. It has not been able, however, to restore salaries to the 1932-33 levels. Until it can do so, it must count itself crippled, no matter how essentially sound may be its financial condition nor how gratifying may be the progress made in one or another of its component parts. With the improvement of salary schedules in other universities which is gradually taking place, it will not be possible for the Llniversity of Buffalo long to retain its best people or to fill the places of those who leave its services with others of equal quality. Activities of the Divisions The 50/AAnniversary of the Law School The celebration of the first half century of life of the School of Law fell opportunely at a time when it was possible for returning alumni and other friends of the school to assess the results of the reorganization begun in the spring of 1936. For two years a vigorous and productive fulltime faculty—a faculty further augmented by the appointment of one part-time and two full-time professors during the year under review—had been addressing itself to the expansion and rearrangement of the curriculum, to the development of new methods of instruction and the stimulation of student participation in professional activities inside and outside the school. The collection of books and periodicals had been greatly increase d and the usability of the law library improved. The school had been approved by the American Bar association and admitted to membership in the Association of American Law Schools. The celebration of the anniversary took the form of a six-day law institute conducted mainly by the dean and his associates, but addressed also by ProfessorEdmund M. Morgan of the Harvard Law school and Jerome N. Frank of the Securities and Exchange commission. The institute was devoted to the presentation of recent developments in various, fields of legal theory and practice, and was designed to be of practical value to the members of the local bar. The 25th Anniversary of the College When the university on May 14, 1938, publicly recognized the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the College of Arts and Sciences,it was celebrating more than the first quarter century of the life of one of its divisions. It was calling attention to the fact that it is really a very young university; because until the College of Arts and Scienceshad reached a certain stage in its development the institution was a university in name only. The title which it had borne for nearly three-quarters of a century represented a prophecy and a hope. Until the college was established the four professional schools which �3 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN made up the university had no secure roots and no common integrating bond. The university as it exists today is not onlycentered in the College of Arts and Sciences; more than half of it is a direct outgrowth of the college. Almost from the day when it graduated its first class the college has been one of the pioneers in the progressive reform of higher education in the liberal arts. As the college has grown in resources, and as its experiments have been observed and tested by outside agencies, its prestige has increased. On the occasion of its 25th birth- day distinguished speakers representing other institutions testified to the position of influencewhich it has attained among the colleges of liberal arts. Expansion of the School of Social Work The youngest offshoot of the College of Arts and Sciencesis the Schoolof Social Work which developed out of the department of sociology and anthropology in response to urgent demands of the community. Recognizing a change in the trend of training for social work, the school established during the year under review two new departments: a department of public administration and a department of cityplanning and housing. It inaugurated courses leading to the graduate certificate in public administration and extended its field work specialties to include group work, administration, and city planning and housing. Its enrollment has continued to increase. Those who receive its degrees and certificates are in great demand among the private and public agencies of this region. The establishment of the department of city planning and housing was made possible by the co-operation of the Buffalo City Planning association and by a continuing grant from the Rockefellerfoundation. The City Planning association and the university are joint sponsors of a planning research station. The station undertakes to carry on investigations and direct students in the fieldsof city planning and housing, under the direction of the head of the department of city planning and housing, Dr. Walter C. Behrendt,who also serves as consultant to the City Planning association. GraduateWork In the year under review 372 persons were pursuing graduate work in the university leading to advanced degrees. Eightythree more attended short post-graduate courses offeredby the Schoolsof Medicine and Dentistry. Two divisions enroll the majority of these candidates. One hundred and thirtyfour are working for degrees in arts and sciences,216 for degrees in education. As noted at the beginning of this report, the increase in the number of persons enrolled for all forms of graduate study was 37 per cent during the year under review. Within the last five years this group of students has increased more than 100 per cent. Unless the university should arbitrarily limit the number of persons accepted for graduate study it is bound to have on its hands an enterprise in the field of graduate education of very considerable magnitude. The body of graduate students already registered is double the size of most of the university's professional schools. In previous reports I have informed the council that the situation which now exists might be expected and that when it arrived the university would probably have to consider some reorganization of its graduate undertakings, especially in the field of the arts and sciences. It is my belief that the time has come to recognize the fact that the university now has in reality a graduate school of to designate the body of arts and sciences, graduate students and their teachers as such,and to provide for a titular head of the unit. The problems to be faced in this field deserve the attention of a graduate faculty and dean. The problems facing the university in the field of graduate work in the arts and sciences and in education are likely to be multiplied by the recent action of the Board of Education of the city of Buffalo requiring prospective teachers in secondary schools to secure 30 semester hours of work beyond the bachelor's degree. The effect of this requirement will undoubtedly be to induce the great majority of prospective secondary teachers of this area to secure either the MA or the EdM degree. Graduate enrollments, therefore, in both arts and education are likely to increase still further. Short post-graduate courses in various professional fields designed primarily to afford practitioners an opportunity to learn of new technical developments have proved to be a very valuable form of service. The university has conducted such courses in medicine for nearly 20 years. Because of its success in this form of instruction it was requested by the Kellogg foundation to arrange a special post-graduate course for a group of Michigan physicians during the year 1938. The school offered the course requested in addition to those which it regularly conducts. For the second year the Schoolof Dentistry conducted similar brief post-graduate courses for practicing dentists. The law institute, mentioned above,was the first attempt of the School of Law to render a corresponding service in the legal field. ■* The Work-Study Plan Every year the admissions officersof the university have contact with scores of ability who are young people of superior eagerto attend the university but for financial reasons are unable to do so. The funds available for scholarships are very limited. Few of the endowed scholarships provide full tuition. Scholarship awards in amounts less than the full tuition fee are not sufficient to enable some students to attend; and often these are the students who would profit by a university education. For the benefit of these youngpeople the Work-Study plan has been devised. In its essential mechanism the plan follows the familiar model of the co-operative part-time plans which have been in force at the University of Cincinnati, Antioch college and certain other institutions for a number of years. Under the plan a student spends half his time studying in the university and half his time working at a job outside the university for wages. Studentsare paired. When one member of the pair is working at the job furnished by some outside employing agencythe other member is studying full-time in the university. At intervals of four months the members of the pair change places; the one working at the job returns to his work as a student,the other suspends his fulltime study and takes over the job. Only those students who graduate in the highest fifth of their respective high school classes and who demonstrate to the university officersthat they are otherwise unable to attend the university will be admitted to study under the plan. Already a sufficientnumber of business organizations have agreed to co-operate with the university by furnishing employment to ensure a satisfactory trial period. The plan went into operation in the summer of 1938. Prospective students maypursue their work either in the College of Arts and Sciences or the School of Business Administration. The council has appointed Dean Lewis A. Froman of the Millard Fillmore college, director of the Work-Study plan. Co-operative Relations Within the year under review the three units of the university devoted to education for the health services have still further extended their co-operative relationships. The agreement between the Buffalo City hospital and the university originally adopted in 1920, under which the hospital places its facilities for clinical teaching in medicine, dentistry and nursing at the disposal of the university and designates the heads of the university departments as the heads of its own medical, dental and surgical services,was again revised in the year under review to bring about a still closer integration with the medical, dental and nursing divisions of the university. In addition the preclinical departments in the Medical school for the first time offered instruction to the house staff of the City hospital. The Dental school likewise organized a post-graduate faculty to give instruction to the dental interns on the staff of the City hospital in oral surgery, radiology, pathology, pediodontia, orthodontia, periodontia and therapeutics. Through this new faculty organization the school proposes also to offer short postgraduate courses to general practitioners. A separate agreement between the School of Pharmacy and the Buffalo City hospital provides for the operation of the hospital �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 4 pharmacy by the school and the use of this pharmacy for teaching purposes. An altogether new agreement was consummated between the Schoolof Dentistry and the Buffalo Children'shospital according to which the school assumes the operation of the hospital dental clinic as a teaching unit of the school, and the school places the services of its regular teaching faculty in a consulting capacity at the disposal of the clinic, and offers instruction to student nurses and hospital interns. The hospital has undertaken to enlarge its present facilities and to give the school full access to its clinical material in the outpatient department and wards for undergraduate and post-graduate teaching and for general research. It will be obvious that this agreement provides for a very large addition to the facilities already furnished by the school infirmary for instruction in children's dentistry. The Collectionof Modern Poetry The Lockwood Memorial library started in the autumn of 1935 to build up a collection of materials that will fully represent British and American poetic activity of the period from 1880 to the present day. It has already made a substantial beginning in the accumulation of books,pamphlets, magazines and fugitive publications in which the works of poets have appeared. More important and distinctive than the collection of books,however,is the unique collection of manuscripts which the library has already assembled. The purpose which the library seeks is to bring together in one place all the printed works of contemporary poets and to provide manuscript materials which will enable students to see how poets work, how a poem grows from its first incomplete and unpolished beginnings to the final version which is presented to the public. Suchmaterials,it is believed,will be of great interest and value both to students of literature and to students of psychology. In 1937 the Carnegie corporation made available an appropriation of $1500 to enable ProfessorCharlesD. Abbott, the librarian of the Lockwood Memorial library, to visit contemporary British poets and explain to them the purposes lying behind the collection. Over a hundred British poets were interviewed. All were willing to cooperate by bestowing upon the library copies of their manuscripts. A large number of American poets have likewise responded to the library's request. The Needs of the University The primary need of the university remains the same: more endowment. Unrestricted gifts to the general funds of the institution and special endowments for professorships are equally useful. It is imperative that more moneyfor salaries of employes of all grades be secured. This is not a matter of sentiment. The essential quality of the university is at stake. Since the general reduction of salaries, made necessary six yearsago by the sudden drop in the university's income,the rate of compensation of teachers of all ranks has been so low as greatly to handicap the university in its competition with other institutions for the services both of promising young instructors and of professors with established reputations. I do not ignore the fact that the University of Buffalo has made a strong appeal on other than material grounds to members of the academic profession. But the price of these psychic satisfactions maybe more than teachers can afford to pay. In many instances it has been more than they could afford. The university has lost some of its strongest members;not because they wished to go but because they could not afford to stay. It will inevitably lose others unless the general financial situation of the whole staff is speedily improved. Not only is more moneyneeded to increase the salaries of those already in service,but in several of the divisions and departments more teachers are needed. Probably the most serious deficiency is that existing in the Medical school. Only the basic scientific departments of anatomy, physiology, bio-chemistry, pharmacology, pathology and bacteriology are staffedwith full-time teachers. Next to the improvement of existing salaries in the Medical school, the most urgent need is the employment of some full-time professors in each of the principal clinical departments. Along with the reduction of salaries six yearsago came a curtailment of the appropriations for equipment, supplies and assistance to be used in research. It has not been possible as yet to restore these appropriations to their former levels. The research program of the whole university has undoubtedly suffered. It is placed in the inconsistent position of promoting research,and at the same time starving it. In previous reports I have informed the council that the income from at least $2,---000,000 of additional endowment is needed now to conduct properly the enterprises to which the university is already committed. To conduct these enterprises, not on an extravagant scale,but in a manner consonant with the annual recommendations of their directing officers,would require the income from additional endowment considerably in excess of $2,000,000. With the completion of the Irwin B. Clark Memorial gymnasium the most serious deficiency in the university's physical equipment on the campus will have been met. Until the divisions located on the campus have increased considerably in size no further buildings are absolutely needed for their accommodation. To complete the gymnasium, however,it should be extended out-of-doors. The campus has ample areas for playing fields of all sorts. Thus far they have been very slightly developed. It is hoped that the project may appeal in the near future to friendsof the university. One building is urgently needed. I have discussed the need frequently in other annual reports. There should be at an early date an adequate building on Niagara square to house the downtown activities of the university. With the continued growth of Millard Fillmore college the inadequacy of Townsend hall becomes every year more pronounced. The growth of the Law school library and the increased demand for officesfor members of the faculty of the Law school have taxed the capacity of the Law school building to the utmost. Additional space for the operations of the school will shortly have to be found. For some years the council has had in mind the erection of a building on the present site of Townsend hall large enough to house both the Millard Fillmore college and the Law school and to provide for the inevitable expansion of both of these divisions. The needs of the Medical and Dental schools for improved quarters do not constitute an emergency.They are real, howto ever. Before long it will be necessary replace the buildings occupied by these of both divisions schools. The faculties believe that when that time comes a single building should be erected to house the two schools;and that it should be on another site. As to whether it should be placed on the campus, opinions are divided. The university has a larger enrollment each year of persons resident outside the commuting area. Unquestionably its attractive power to students residing at a distance would be greatly increased if it provided living quarters for these students. The admitting officersknow of many person.s who each year desire to attend the University of Buffalo because of the character of certain of its offerings, and who decide not to do so since the university has no dormitories. Dormitories for both men and women constitute an extremely useful addition to its present facilities. The insufficiency of the scholarship funds is more acutely felt than ever in a period such as that through which we are now passing. Scoresof the ablest young people within the territorial area served by the university cannot meet its charges, or indeed those of any other institution of higher education. Welcome additions have been made to the scholarship funds of the university during the year under review. The total sum available for student aid, however,is but a fraction of the amount that could be assigned to students whose need is urgent and whose industry and talent are conspicuous. Again, the provision of money *"o enable the most competent young people to complete their formal education is not a matter of sentiment. The recipients of such aid are not the only ones who profit. The ultimate advantage accrues to the community; and not alone to this community, but to the larger American community of which this community is a part. Gifts for scholarships, while they do not help the university pay its operating costs or to balance its budget, are likely to bring as great a permanent return as any that can be made. Respectfully submitted, SAMUEL P. CAPEN �5 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN The Comptroller's Report of the University of Buffalo, Buffalo,New York Gentlemen. The annual report of the comptroller for the fiscal year which ended June 30, 1938 is presented herewith. The balance sheet. Exhibit "A" shows endowment assets of $5,742,320.07; plant assets of $6,833,435.4"'; and operating assets of $72,510.26. On June 30, 1938 the balance in the endowment fund account was $5,740,353-64, as shown in Exhibit "B" presented herewith. On June 30, 1937 this balance was $5,839,713-96. The net decrease for the year, therefore,in the endowment fund account was $99,360.32. This decrease is accounted for by disbursements made during the year out of the endowment fund on account of the construction of the Irwin B. Clark Memorial gymnasium,which disbursements were offset in part by additions to the fund. The endowment fund account is made up of $1,977,614.20 of general purpose funds and $3,762,739.44 of special purpose funds as shown in Exhibit "B." The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1937 was $6,563,-977.81. The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1938 was $6,829,478.46. The increase during the year covered by this report, therefore,was $265,500.65, which is accounted for, in large part, by payments on account of the construction of the Irwin B. Clark Memorial gymnasium. The physical plant of the university has never been in as splendid condition as it is at To the Council present. The total operating income for the year was $1,037,410.12; the total operating disbursements were $999,028.84 as shown below. The year, therefore,closed with a credit balance of $38,381.28 which is 3-70 per cent of the total income for the year. From this surplus the sum of $20,211.03 was appropriated by the committee on general administration to balance the budget for the fiscal year 1938-39. The total operating income for the year exceeded the operating income of the preceding year by $49,519.51, while the total operating disbursements exceeded those of the preceding year by $32,969.18. For the first time in the history of the university its income reached one million dollars for the year. The following is a comparative table of the operating account of the university for the fiscal years 1935-36,1936-37 and 1937-38. $"39,065.95 $"68,753.50 Fees Received from Students Income from Endowment 171,865.42 172,497.31 Dental Infirmary <Net) 13.332.89 12.598.24 Sifts Received to Apply on Salaries 9.400.00 7,400.00 1.430.00 1,730.00 Rental Property Income Miscellaneous 7,005.52 8,198.17 Appropriation of 1935-1936 Surplus 16,713.39 Appropriation of 1936-1937 Surplus Total Income $912,089."8 $987,890.61 EXPENSES $132,681.49 $138,558.25 Lxpenses of Administtation 507,469.41 528.860.53 Salaries of Instruction Supplies Used in Instruction 26.435.12 22,344."6 Operation and Maintenance of 89.734.02 82,660.17 Buildings 3perarion and Maintenance of Cen20,986.37 tral Heating Plant 20,912.08 Jpkeep and Improvement—University Campus 30.934.8t 45.364.14 J815.981.88 173,580.64 10,512.37 5.350.00 1,705.00 8,449.28 21,830.95 $1,037,410.12 $151,107.64 548,938.01 21,567.53 92,347.98 24.823.95 38,679.86 General and Departmental 3ureau of Business and Social Research department of Physical Education and Hygiene I"he Registrar's Office Furniture and Fixtures Scientific Equipment Catalogs, Bulletins, Printing and Advertising Insurance [merest on Mortgages and Notes Payable Rental Property Expense Cicp of Buffalo Property Assess- libraries. ments Collection Pledges of Endowment Total Expenses Surplus for the Year Fund 43,902.72 (',499.19 6,853.58 6,362.58 14,521.74 11,423.14 2,775.49 14,601.66 11,719.34 14,543-40 6,192.00 12,210.92 4,292.63 7,676.64 7,299.23 6,939.63 ",104.66 ■',892.22 5,968.18 9,668.67 5,954.49 15,596.71 15,033.07 1,904.97 11,720.68 1,800.76 2,187.71 2,368.29 8,348.75 2,029.78 653.88 883-09 1,537.36 ....S925.376.39 .... 44,310.93 43,280.62 16,713.39 S999.028.84 S966.059-66 21,830.95 38,381.28 During the year 1937-38 fees received from students equalled "8.7 per cent of the total income of the university for the year and 81.7 per cent of the total cost of operating the university for the year.

Clark Memorial gymnasium is filling a great need at the university is an understatement. Sinceit was opened for business one day last month, its facilities have been taxed almost con- Breaks Precedent tinually. A new impetus has been given to physical education courses—which no longer include wand drills and Indian club twirling, but organized gamesand personalized corrective measures. Intramural sports, too, have brought out large numbers of class, fraternity and division enthusiasts,who make the welkin ring by day and keep the lights ablaze by night. Varsity athletics at last find a comfortable home. Players have convenient,adequate locker rooms, trim, commodious showers, spacious quarters for indoor practice. The football squad no longer fears inclement weather,but can use the swimming pool room for light drills. The basketball players have not one, but three courts on which to practice, with the double advantage of playing home games on their own court instead of Elmwood Music hall floor. And even those who use the building little or not at all, are enthusiastic over this latest step toward the complete campus. The gymnasium was dedicated Nov. 2 with simple ceremonies. Preceded by a student parade around the campus, the program was highlighted by a transferof keys from Justice Charles B. Sears,University council member representing the community, to ChancellorCapen. Burton T. Simpson, MD '03. director of the New York StateInstitute for the Study of Malignant Diseases,and left tackle on the great teams of 1899 to 1901, gave the keynote speech, while Dr. CharlesH. Keene,head of the department of hygiene and physical education, spoke briefly but happily. SOCIAL WORKERS ORGANIZE Alumni of the Schoolof Social Work are planning to form their own graduates' association. Action in that direction was taken at a luncheon of alumni, faculty members,consulting associates and students a few weeks ago in Syracuse, during the of SocialWork.

The trustees thereforedirected President O'Malley to appoint at an early date, a committee to surveythe entire field, prepare a plan and present it for approval at a meeting of alumni leaders on University day, Feb. 22, 1939.

Columbus, Ohio Stejbach, Mac Napieralska (Mrs.), '27 634 Fillmore Aye.. Buffalo, N. Y. Resolved: That the Council of the University of Buffalo approves the creation of scholarships by organized groups of alumni of the university, the recipients of which may be designated by the organizations providing the scholarships, subject in each case to the approval of the university committee on scholarships and loans. On the strength of that resolution,made public by Chancellor Capen a fortnight ago, the University of Buffalo Alumni Club, campaign Inc., this month was preparing a for scholarships aimed at improvingvarsity athletics while at the same time adhering to the university's requirements on academic standing. A committee of 15, headed by Harold M. Baumler, LLB '26, is drawing plans for an award similar to the Rhodes scholarship, which gives recognition to academic attain- ment, character and extra-curricular activity. The plan will be submitted to universityauthorities shortly. Its proponents are optimistic concerning its approval. Publication of the resolution was hailed with delight by many students,alumni and Buffalo citizens. First interpretations gleefully used such terms as "subsidization," "athletic scholarships" and "liberalization of poliq-." Later, more sober opinion held that athletic subsidy would not be tolerated any more than it had in the past; that the policy had not been liberalized or changed in any way,but that the resolution merely re-stated certain rights which the alumni have had all the time. Actually the resolution makes no mention of athletics. But observers agreethat it leaves the way clear for alumni assistance to students who maypossess other than scholastic attainments. Certainly the alumni leaders took the statement as a friendly act on the part of the University council and administration an act which they believe will be encouraging to alumni morale. On Mr. Baumler's committee are Allen R. Long. MD '21, club president; Arnott A. Moore. DDS '15, club secretary; Edward F. Mimmack. DDS '21, Dental facultyman; Gordon A. Hague, AC '21, BS '25, EdM '33, member of the Athletic council; Robert E. Rich, BS (Bus) '35, president of the Business Administration Alumni association: Dr. Curtis C. D.

Pg^alo, Art Powell Opens 24th Court Season Buffalo sports rooters, disappointed by the season's showing in football, turned with more optimism this month to the basketball court. Coach Art Powell's 24th edition has somewhat better material than last year, and the new practice facilities are expected to help. Biggest hope of the squad is Morlty Townsend. whose 6 feet, B|/2 inches of frame easily won him the pivot post again. So far he has paced his team mates with a total of 45 in scoring points. TOWNSEND Son of Carleton J. Townsend. LLB 11. and brother of Betty Townsend. BA '34, "Tiny" Townsend expects his degree in business administration in 1939. The squad has five of last year's lettermen, plus enough newcomers with high school and freshman squad experience to guarantee some reserve material. Powell, temperamentally pessimistic, shakes his head over the season's prospects, but critics look for the best record since the famousclub of the early thirties. Jim Peelle's gridiron machine turned in two impressive wins out of eight starts— by no means the worst season in Buffalo history. Brilliant in flashes,the team sufferedfrom lack of reserves, lacked scoring punch, displayed a tendency to weaken in the final stages of the contest. Upsetting Peelle's custom of appointing game captains, the squad elected Vito Grieco team captain, had the pleasure of seeing him get the center spot on the various all-district elevens,win honorable mention on the Associated Press All-Eastern team, and receive offersfrom three professionalNational league teams for 1939Seasonsummary: C.

Seeking Catholic Aid Enrollment Up Again The Rev. Raymond P. Murray, counselor to Catholic students at the university, has issued an appeal to Catholic alumni to assist him in his work. Contributionsare being sought for building up a Catholic library to be placed in the Lockwood Memorial library; for continuance of the program of Catholic speakers and for other work of the chaplaincy. Most of the activity is conducted through the Newman club, an organization of Catholic culture and fellowship whose purpose is promotion of the religious, intellectual and social welfareof Catholicstudents. The club has brought to Buffalo such lecturers as Dr. Fulton J. Sheehan, the Abbe Dimnet of Paris, Dr. Mortimer J. Adler of the University of Chicago and Arnold Lunn of England. Each year during the Lenten season a retreat is arranged by the chaplain. Once again the university has beaten its own enrollment record. Final fall figures released by Registrar Emma E. Deters show a net registration of 4360, an increase of 4J/2 per cent over the 4171 for the same time last year.

As the Bulletin went to press plans were being completed for the traditional "Key ceremony" in which the university has in past years taken occupancyof its new campus buildings. Before a gathering of students,alumni, facultymen, University council members, educators of the region and just plain friends, the spacious, greystone structure was to be formally declared open for use.

Student guides will meet them at the bL-ilding entrances. verted barn whose drafty dressing rooms, uncomfortable showers and general dreariness discouraged many. The new physical education plant is expected to attract big numbers of enthusiasts to participate in the sports and games which constitute the present-day physical education curriculum. Wand waving and Indian club twirling are out nowadays. Squash, badminton,tennis, archery, golf, matwork,baseball,softball, basketball,football are definitely in. Thus internal rivalries will be developed, as inter-school, inter-class,inter-fraternity contests appear on the program. The effect on intercollegiate athletics cannot fail to be good. Head CoachJim Peelle's football squad has the distinction of being the first athletic group to use the building, having beaten the opening gun by a few days in order to use the locker rooms and showers. Art Powell's basketball hopefuls will be able to start practice immediately on the new court—the same on which many of this season's gameswill be played.

He was associate professor of medicine and chairman of the department of medicine. Survey Business Grads Many critics of the college fraternity look it as a device for wasting time, spending moneyand generally receiving training as men-about-campus. That some, at least, have a serious point of view, is proved by Alpha Kappa Psi, national fraternity in business administration, whose Buffalo chapter annually conducts a research project in business training. Recently announced were results of the 1937-38 project—a surveyof Business Administration school alumni opinion on the training they received as undergraduates. The canvass was conducted by Milton A. Bender who was graduated in June with high distinction. In this era of specialization, alumni dislike for specialized training was an outstanding bit of news. They tended to support the opinion that specialized training is of little value since the student is usually unable to forecastthe type of position he will enter after graduation. Only 23 of the total of 93 returns indicated the graduate entered a previously chosen field. Only 12 of those 23 favoreda policy of specialization, which only a third of those who were unable to forecasttheir type of employment favored the policy. "The Schoolof Business Administration at the University of Buffalo attempts to assume a course midway between the two extremes of general and specialized training" the report points out. As regards curriculum and teaching methods,83 per cent favored more independent research; 58 per cent preferred dison cussion lectures and 61 per cent said should be the established procedure. to comprehensive examinations added to ACCOMPLISHES FEAT Arts SeniorPaul Civin has accomplished an unusual feat in qualifying as an associate of the Casualty Actuarial society, by completion of certain difficult examinations several months ago.

Though final figures have not yet been compiled, it is expected that they will exceed last year's high of 4945. Before an audience of new and old students and robed faculty members who jammed Edmund Hayes auditorium on opening day. Chancellor Capen emphasized the university's adherence to the tradition of academic freedom. "This is a very simple and friendly community," he declared. "Pretense and pose of any sort are not popular here and are very little practiced. There are no barriers between any individuals or any groups. High-hatting is not in order. Relations between students and members of the faculty are cordial and natural. "This is a democratic institution. It offers no formal required courses in democracy and citizenship. It practices it. It takes the first amendment to the Constitution seriously—the amendment which guarantees freedom of speech, of the press, of worship and the right of petition. "The university guarantees the same things. It guarantees free speech. Anyone can express an opinion he holds, no matter how unpopular or how silly. Nobody has to agree with anybody, except on matters of fact. "The University of Buffalo enjoys the reputation of being one of the freest in America and it cherishes that as the outstanding attribute it possesses. The university promotes research and tries to see that its whole program of instruction is carried on in the spirit of intellectual inquiry." The chancellor likened the selection of a college to the selection of a mate. "Some of you have chosen this university because of its good looks," he ventured. "Some have chosen it because it was the only one available. Some—l hope many—have selected it because of its reputation as one of the leading universities of the country. "Some—I hope most of you—decided to come here because you were convinced that its facilities, its programs of study and its BACK TO COLLEGE A mid-September view of Lockwood Memorial Library's magnificent facade atmosphere promised you the best opportunities for the work you want to do and that its environment is suited to your aspirations and your abilities." Though Sept. 19 was the official opening date, the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry have been under way since July 1. Their fall quarter begins Oct. 1. On campus, freshman orientation courses for new students in pharmacy, education, business and the College were held earlier in September. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Grid Prospects Bright Alumni News Brevities Belief that the Bulls will better their 1937 football record of four wins and four defeats, rules the Blue and White camp this fall.

The tally includes the Alumni Council Bulletin, mailed nine times a year to approximately 9000 alumni, and a multitude of literature concerning various alumni meetings, the Alumni Swimming Pool campaign and the annual vote for University council members. The Alumni office was established in 1933 in an effort, among other things, to keep track of the graduates. The office contains several files listing the alumni alphabetically, geographically and by classes. Several hundred more are classified as lost, because of the inadequacy of their addresses. To aid in keeping records clear, ;i!umni should notify the office of all changes of address. It is also urged that all readers of the Bulletin scan the "Where Are They Now?" column, which lists each month a new batch (if alumni whose present whereabouts is unknown. Unusual Law Training The Law school now has three facultywhose close association with United States Supreme court members is expected to be of value to students. Dr. Louis L.

Mark De Wolfe Howe, professor of the law of contracts, conflict of laws and American legal history, assisted the late Mr. Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes during the 1933-34 term. men JUNIOR LEAGUE VENTURE Next comes a research program on the relationship of malnutrition and decay For many years the Buffalo Children's hospital has been affiliated with the School of Medicine in the teaching of pediatrics. Many a student has learned many a firsthand fact about diseases of childhood in the cheery rooms and wards of the institution. Recently announced was a new affiliation with the School of Dentistry. Senior students in small groups will be assigned to service in the hospital for clinical instruction and practice. The hospital dental clinic, established by the Junior league of Buffalo, has been remodeled and re-equipped and is regarded as one of the most complete associated with any children's hospital. Funds for the equipment and maintenance of the clinic were provided by the Junior league. Some of its members even serve as volunteer clerical workers in the clinic. Associate Dean Russell W. Groh, DDS '18 says the plan makes possible the enlargement of the scope of clinical instruction. Beside offering opportunity for study and treatment of conditions responsible for early inception of dental decay, the student is in the proper environment for training in the psychology of child management. Plans are under way for early establishment of a research program at the hospital for study of the relationship of malnutrition and dietry defects to the incidence of dental cavities. Where Are They now? A new list of lost alumni is published every month and [hose who can are requested to supply the proper information to the Alumni office.

The amount was subscribed by 201 seniors in the form of pledges to the Senior Memorial fund. It is the highest sum pledged in the three years that the fund has existed. Each person who joins the plan agrees to give to the university SI a year for five years following graduation. The project was founded by the Class of 1936.

The total was fast short of last years record ngure of 436. Into the majestic auditorium of the Buffalo Consistory strode the participants in the university's biggest annual spectacle. They stood with bowed heads as the Rev. Raymond P. Murray, counsellor for Catholic students, pronounced the invocation; they sang "America." then settled down to hear Chancellor Capen's introduction of the new president of Tufts college. Dr. Leonard Carmichael. whose address bore the title: On Expecting the Wrong Things from Education." "When you buy a new automobile." Dr. Carmichael began, "you do not expect it to be able to take off into the clouds if you race it down the runway of an airport. An unabridged dictionary contains all the words of Shakespeare's plays, but you are not disappointed if you cannot read Macbeth in your Webster. "But it is different with education. A man may study Reimannian geometry or read Aristophanes and Juvenal and then be considered by the most conservative judges to be fitted, without further training, to administer at least a very small British colony. "On every side, we are told that our universities are failing because they are not producing citizens whose aggressive action will lead to the triumph of the critic's own favorite good cause. The college man is supposed to be technically competent in his chosen field and at the same time to be an intelligent volunteer social worker and an irradiating center of ornamental culture. Milton's famous definition of education as that which fits a man to perform justly, skilfully and magnanimously all the offices, both private and public, of peace and war' is still quoted favorably and not in the How's That Again? Department" of the New Yorker.'' Reasoning that education can only build on the foundation which the student's heredity and environment have already laid, the speaker set his hearers straight on some of the things education can give: Real and serviceable information; a certain amount of mental training; new horizons and a tolerance for attitudes and ideas unlike those of pre-college years; assistance in finding a more satisfactory place in society. "Our graduating classes" he concluded, "may not be composed of social philosophers, but I for one believe that one good brain surgeon is worth more to the race than a dozen lovers of mankind at a verbal and abstract level. The precious heritage of the ever growing but necessarily esoteric cultural tradition is therefore yearly maintained by our universities. The future of this process seems bright, provided only that those who expect the wrong things from education do not succeed in deflecting our institutions of higher learning from their proper work. This is not the 19th century. Optimism is out of vogue. But at the risk of being called old-fashioned, may I suggest that if formal education can be allowed to go on about its proper business, a cure may even sometime be discovered for a world which now seems mentally rather than physically ill." Amid salvos of applause Dr. Capen then presented the following diplomas and certificates: Bachelor of arts, 92; doctor of medicine, 56; bachelor of laws, 45; nursing certificate, 41; bachelor of science (business administration), 36; bachelor of science in library science, 26; doctor of dental surgery, 25; graduate in pharmacy, 22; graduate certificate in social work, 22; bachelor of science in education, 19; master of education, 15; master of arts, ten; bachelor of science in nursing, five; diploma in business, five; master of science in medicine, four; bachelor of science in pharmacy, three; certificate in engineering, two; doctor of philosophy, two; certificate in library science, one. Then the new alumni stood, sang Philip Becker Goetz' "Chorale," heard Father Murray's benediction, faced about and stepped from the darkening hall into the bright, new world. The university's 92nd year was officially ended. Where Are They Now?

The first part of mine was lived in a period of comparative stability. Change, rapid and often violent, is all that you have ever known: war, boom, depression, partial recovery, renewed depression ; the rise of new forms of tyranny in Europe; the rape of China, of Ethiopia, of Austria; threats and posturings of dictators; challenges to our system of government and social organization by hostile forces from without and by self-seekers from within; ill-considered reform executed under pressure of fear; loss of jobs and savings; the weakening of all sanctions patriotic, financial, moral, religious; everything in flux. Perhaps something like this is all you will ever know. I do not prophesy; nobody can safely prophesy. But it is possible that the tempo of change has so quickened that civilized man is condemned hereafter to live in the midst of alarms and excursions such as our fathers had to face only once in a lifetime, or not at all. And, of course, it is also possible that what you have seen is but one phase of a great convulsion of society, comparable with the collapse of the Roman empire or the breakdown of the feudal system. No one can say as yet whether this is the case. If so, certainly no one now living could set the date for the end of the convulsion, or foretell whether or not it will be followed by a period of relative stability. But even if it is unsafe to prophesy, it is permitted to hazard a guess. My guess is that the kind of conditions you have had to live in are substantially the kind of conditions you will continue to live in; that social and economic arrangements will continue to be subject to change without notice; that you can expect no security and no stability, from now to the end of your lives. My reasons for believing so are these. Mankind's hold on civilization has always been very tenuous. Civilization is not natural to the human race. It is an acquired habit; hard to acquire and easy to lose. Men have reverted to an uncivilized condition time and again; sometimes only within a limited geographical area, sometimes on a wholesale scale. They have so reverted now to an extent that might be described as wholesale. In making this assertion I am under obligation to say what I mean by civilization. My definition may not be yours. You cannot find it in the dictionary. Nevertheless, I think it will stand up. Civilization I take to be more than a collection of arts and technologies which lift men's lives above the level of sheer animal functioning. We may have arts and technologies with no civilization. Civilization I understand to be, in addition to arts and technologies, a mode of collective behavior — Volunteers which guarantees continuity of status to individuals and groups. For example, war makes use of the most advanced technologies and of many arts, but war is not civilization. Nobody has ever claimed it to be. not even the most ardent militarists. Efforts made from time to time during the last two centuries to establish rules for socalled civilized warfare have proved utterly abortive. The rules have always been disregarded by combatants. When nations otherwise civilized wage war, they become uncivilized, at least in so far as their war enterprise is concerned. In war there is no guarantee of continuity of status. Such guarantee depends upon agreements. The agreements may not provide for justice. They may perpetuate gross injustices. They may be kept in force by fear or by a feeling of hopelessness on the part of those who do not like them, but as long as they exist they produce order and, as I have said, continuity of status. Thus there have been despotisms that exhibited a high degree of civilization and there have been and are republics partly or wholly uncivilized. We have been accustomed to speak of the civilized world. What did we mean by that? We meant that part of the world in which nations lived in a more or less stable equilibrium with relation to one another. The equilibrium might be maintained by alliances, by balances of power, by fear of disaster on the part of those who could see advantages in disturbing it, or by the honorable observance of contracts between governments. But it was maintained. Whenever it was disturbed there was widespread dismay and pains were taken to restore it again as soon as possible. It seems to me patent that what your parents used to think of as the civilized world has collapsed. When the famous scrap of paper was torn up in 1914 the collapse began. The civilized world, so-called, was certainly very uncivilized during the four succeeding years. Something like an equilibrium was very shakily restored for a few years after 1919. But that has now vanished. Stark brutality, the law of tooth and claw, now rules almost half the earth. Within this half of the earth persons, classes, nations, and whole races have no security, no rights, no defense, no effective champion, and, of course, no prospect of continuity of status. All agreements are suspended. Moreover with the countries that compose this half of the world, there is no possibility of civilized dealing. Their word is not good. They recognize no obligation as binding if it happens to conflict with the expediency of the moment. They understand but one language, the language of force. I repeat, the civilized world that my generation knew, and the generations ahead of it, is gone. It has shrunk to something like half its size. The half that is left is on the defensive, fearful of further shrinkage. It is difficult for me—and perhaps for you—to describe the present situation in the parts of the world that have become uncivilized, in terms that do not sound like an indictment. But I am not drawing up an indictment. I wish simply to remind you of facts that are generally admitted and, if I can, to bring them to a focus. Indeed, it seems to me possible to sum up under a single generalization the nature of the present dislocation of what was formerly the civilized world; the dislocation that is characterized by undeclared wars, East and West; by vague but terrifying threats of further wars; by persecutions, massacres and purges: by almost unparalleled mass cruelty; by broken pledges, dictatorships and all the rest. If I am right the generalization has peculiar importance for us who are Americans and especially for those Americans who are members of a university. I submit my generalization for your consideration. Mankind has trusted to two agencies to govern its collective actions. The agencies are: principle and personality. Historically the order was reversed. Primitive men apparently knew nothing of principle. They put their faith in personalities, in leaders. The chief or king who possessed superior strength or who could command it, or who was more intelligent than his fellows, was their instrument for co-ordinating groups of human beings and enabling them to achieve collective purposes. The king might rule by love or fear or both. He ruled, however, and his will was law—all the law there was. It took mankind many ages to evolve the conception of a law that stood outside of and above the king. At first such law was very limited in scope. The king's will was checked only as it applied to a few interests of individuals or groups. A few things the king could not do. A few privileges he had to grant. But when that conception was established, principle appeared as a means for controlling the collective concerns of the peoples. I do not need to remind you of the century-long conflict between principle and the king's will. On one national stage or another it has lasted down to today. I am only asking you to recall the gradual triumph of principle through the ages. It has not been an uninterrupted triumph. In the republics of Athens and Rome principle displaced personality as the director of the destinies of the state, and was then in its turn displaced; and for centuries submerged. But from the end of the Middle Ages down to yesterday principle continued �4 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO throned not only in the seats of physical power, but enthroned in the people's very minds. The impulse to surrender principle is contagious. It spreads like panic. People distant from the place where it starts are swept by it. The virus emanating from the nations which have abandoned principle has already affected many of the adjacent countries. Even in remoter countries where principle is still dominant, our own country for example, traces of the contagion are evident. There is a new and disturbing tendency to magnify personal government, to cast collective burdens upon some leader, to view with complacency proposals aimed to place the leader above the law. So much for my generalization. I offer to you for two purposes: first, as a simplified explanation of the rapid series of confusing events which you have witnessed during your later school years, and second, as a warning. I wish I could give my warning the imperative quality of the French battle cry at Verdun: "They shall not pass!'" For it is my solemn belief that a world crisis now impends more pregnant with universal disaster than any that has occurred within the course of modern history. If principle should be everywhere eclipsed as the agency that controls and unites the activities of peoples, then the Dark Ages would be here again. Then would the world be given over to a barbarism more terrible and more generally oppressive than any of which we have record, because the instruments in the hands of the ruling personalities are infinitely more potent than those which the barbarians of old commanded. In Russia and Italy and Germany we have already seen how these instruments can be used. What defense is there against this threatened calamity? I see but one. It is the preservation of the integrity of democracy. Of course, it is possible that the democratic states, or some of them, may be attacked by force of arms. It is even possible that another general conflict cannot be averted. However, when I speak of preserving the integrity of democracy I have something else in mind than the protection of the democratic nations, or any one of them, from physical aggression. The word that I would stress is integrity. Democracy is the only form of government that has yet been put into effect anywhere which rests uncompromisingly upon principle. It is only where principle is dominant that the individual has rights. Democratic government was devised primarily to protect these rights; the right to life, the right to liberty, the right to property. Democracy makes the law supreme. It places no dependence upon personality. It recognizes no rulers. Its official leaders are servants of the law. The agencies for the administration of justice are set beyond the reach of those who may be temporarily invested with the task of leadership, lest they attempt to use their temporary authority to acquire personal power or to make their will prevail over the law. Democracy does it HOLY WARRIORS ? "It will be a bard crusade and a long one. Perhaps you will lire to win ground in almost all the nations of the Western world with few and relatively brief setbacks. Despotisms turned into lim- ited monarchies. Monarchies became republics. Hereditary ruling classes that enjoyed some of the prerogatives of kings were stripped of privileges that placed them beyond the law. Courts amenable to no rule were established to interpret principle and apply it to all the manifold conflicts of citizens, and to conflicts between citizens and the rulers themselves. The great democracies came into being, dedicated to the proposition that only laws duly enacted by the people's representatives—that is, only principle—and never the will of a leader should direct the people's concerns, or have authority over the individual. This movement, a grand epochal movement almost cosmic in its extent, made steady progress, I say, down to yesterday. Yesterday it was abruptly checked. In many nations where principle had gained a precarious foothold, it was suddenly repudiated. Now the king's will is once more the only sanction. To be sure, the king usually bears another title. He may be a General Secretary, or a Fuehrer, or a President. But whatever he is called, he is a king in the ancient sense of the word. I would not leave the impression that any people's reliance upon personality for the conduct of its affairs is always, or perhaps ever, absolute. The human race seems to have an insatiable hunger for principle. Since before the Christian era, few kings have dared to stake their tenure of kingship on personality alone. They have buttressed their position by some doctrine which appears to furnish a justification for their most tyrannical and capricious acts. The Roman Emperors were gods, and as divinities beyond the question of mere mortals. The Japanese Emperor is likewise the Son of Heaven. The dogma of the divine right of kings covered the arbitrary deeds of European monarchs during many cen- to see the rescue." turies and provided their subjects with something to revere beyond the often unimpressive person of the king. Therefore, it is not surprising that the new kings of yesterday and today rely not on personality alone, but upon some kind of bogus principle of which they feign to be the instruments; for example, the doctrine of the supremacy of a racially pure state, the fiction of a workers' commonwealth, the theory of the corporative state, the mystical conception of the leader as the embodiment of the people's will. Let us not deceive ourselves. These moddoctrines, designed to satisfy the universal appetite for principle, are infinitely more effective with the subjects of the modern kings than were ever the dogmas which helped to sustain the ancient kingships. For the modern kings have discovered a new technique of enslavement. It is education, education on such a grand scale as has never before been attempted since the beginning of human history. They do not call it education, or at least they do not apply that name to all of it. The major part of it they call propaganda, and that is a much more accurate designation. But whatever it is called, no one, young or old, can escape it. It follows everyone from the cradle to the grave, forever dinning into all ears the prescribed views, forever proclaiming what can and cannot be believed, assaulting the senses, lashing the emotions, stultifying the mind. In America we are inclined to boast of the large sums of public and private money annually spent for education. I venture the assertion—nobody knows the facts—that the outlay for schools plus the outlay for propaganda in either the Communist or the Fascist states would, if the sums were disclosed, make our own educational expenditures seem niggardly by comparison. And the scheme works. Personality is enthroned at the expense of principle, with the aid of what is made to look like principle; enern �ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN allow its temporary leaders to tax the people or to determine the ways in which derived from taxation is to be spent. not money Leaders are not allowed to molest an individual who is obnoxious to them. They may not prevent individuals or groups from expressing opposition by word of mouth or in print. Their official lives are lived on sufferance. Under stated conditions they may be retired. The fact that democracy officially takes no account of personality does not mean that it has no need of leadership, or that it under-rates leadership. It means that leadership in a democracy is qualitatively different from leadership in any other kind of political organism. It is not secured through the exercise of force, and it cannot be perpetuated except by popular consent. It rests on the confidence of the majority of the people, confidence inspired by the leader's record of performance. Democracy recognizes no classes among its citizens. It recognizes no distinctions as between races. It authorizes no discrimination and no special privileges. Its basic assumption is equality, not equality of native ability, for there is no such thing, bjut equality of opportunity and equality before the law. No doubt some of you are thinking that the democracy in which you live does not consistently adhere to these fundamental propositions. And you are right. You have seen many violations of them. You have seen leaders, local and national, ignore the restrictions which the democratic theory properly places upon them and seek to establish personal dominion over individuals, over the expenditure of public money, and even over the processes of the law. You have seen the free expression of opinion denied, when it happens to be unpalatable to elected officials or to organized groups within the body politic. You have seen the right to liberty invaded and the right to property nullified with the connivance of government officials. You have seen gross examples of race discrimination. You have seen peaceable assemblies of citizens forcibly broken up both by agents of government and by aggregations of terrorists acting in the name of patriotism or of some class advantage. If your ears have been acute, you have heard over and over again the specious argument, the argument employed by tyranny everywhere, that the end justifies the means, even though the means may be utterly repugnant to the processes of democracy. Whenever and in so far as any of these things occur the integrity of democracy is impaired. Are these matters your concern? I say they are your first concern, more important than the work you will presently engage in, or the marriage to which you may be looking forward. For if the integrity of American democracy is seriously undermined, the mainstay of what is left of the civilized world gives way. I do not need to argue that point. I assume you will concede it without argument. What can you do to preserve that integrity? Much. Every one 5 of us can do much. We can watch and think and talk when our talk may be unpopular and write, and on occasions we can vote. If I could have my heart's desire I would enlist you all in a new crusade. It will be a hard crusade and a long one. It will be no quick or easy task to rescue the Holy Sepulchre out of the hands of the infidel. Perhaps you will live to see the rescue, perhaps not. But what matter? The goal is worth striving for, more worth striving for than any other goal toward which humanity aspires. It is often said that the present generation in all the democratic lands, and particularly the young people, no longer have a unifying faith; that they perceive no cause outside themselves, greater than themselves, for which they are willing to suffer and to sacrifice. If that be true, it need not remain true. The cause is there. If we do not recognize it, that is because it is clothed in abstract words like "democracy" and "principle" and "popular sovereignty," words such as I have been using, words so hackneyed and familiar that they slide across the surface of our minds leaving no impression. But these words can be infused with life. They must be once again infused with life. The cause is there, once more dynamic and moving as it was a century and a half ago, once more the great cause, worthy of every sacrifice, fit object of an undying faith. It calls for the devotion of all men and women of intelligence and good will. With special insistence it calls to us who are life members of this free and democratic university.

He spent the last three years as a graduate instructor at Yale. summa view of one of Norton hall's four comfortable, eye-filling lounges �6 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO As the battle over academic freedom rages, a statement of the views of a onetime Secretary of the Treasury is published. It was written by the late Ogden L. Mills to a friend at Harvard, and is reprinted from the University of Chicago Magazine. Academic Freedom as One Man Saw It Dear Meredith: I have been thinking over our conversation with reference to the reluctance of some Harvard men to contribute to the Tercentenary Endowment fund because of alleged radicalism in the university, and of the outside activities of certain members of the faculty. The more I think of it. the more I am satisfied that such an attitude is unjustified. As I understand it, the outside activities complained of consist of unofficial participation in the formulation of those policies of government which have come to be known as the "New Deal." and more particularly of the advocacy of certain measures that in the opinion of many run counter to the form and spirit of our institutions. No one has opposed these measures more strongly than I have, or been more critical of much of the New Deal. But, if a member of the Harvard faculty is called upon to advise his Government, I can not for the life of me see what else he can do save respond. And surely, if he does advise, he must speak according to his own conscience and convictions. Certainly he should not endeavor to present what he conceives to be the views of the corporation or the alumni. He has no right to speak for them. He is not in any sense their representative. He is acting outside the scope of his professional duties, and in his own time, as a private citizen whose opinion is valued by those in authority. A teacher has as much right to engage in outside activities, and to express his views on public questions, as any other professional man. That his views may not coincide with those of a governing board, or do violence to the convictions of the great body of graduates, may be unfortunate, but to ask him to remain silent unless his opinions conform to theirs, would be to limit his right as a citizen, to deprive him of part of his liberty and to impose humiliating restrictions unacceptable to independent and high-minded men. Any university attempting to enforce such a censorship would soon cease to attract preeminent men who combine independence of mind with sound scholarship, the very men who bring it strength and vitality. It would thus pay a penalty so heavy as to make any temporary embarrassment or irritation occasioned by the words or activities of an individual, however imprudent, seem comparatively trivial. I recognize, of course, that by saying things which may shock public sentiment, a professor can do great harm to the institution with which he is connected. However, good taste, a sense of the proprieties, and the influence of his colleagues can be relied upon to exercise a restraining influence. Should these fail, even so, I am sure that as compared with unfair and humiliating restrictions, and their inevitable consequences, the temporary embarrassment is the lesser of two evils. There is a point, however, at which exception can be taken to the outside activities of a member of the faculty, that is when they interfere with his work, or it becomes apparent that they constitute a primary rather than an incidental interest, and that the teacher is using the prestige of his university position to build up an outside career or to promote outside causes. Even then, so important do I consider individual rights that I would prefer to rely on such pressure as would unquestionably be exerted by his colleagues, rather than the disciplinary action of a governing board. The objection to radical teaching raises a very different problem. It is not a question here of the individual rights of the teacher, but of the performance of his professional duties. Since he is acting in his official capacity, it is clear that, if the university so desires, it can hold him accountable not only for the quality and character but for the what of his teaching. This doubtless is what those temporarily irritated by some incident would have the governing board do. But, upon second consideration, they must realize the folly of any such action. A university exists for the pursuit and dissemination of learning. If it is not a place where men may seek the truth with open minds, it betrays its true character and purpose. Search for the truth means a constant endeavor to widen the boundaries of knowledge, and there is here a fatal contradiction if men are compelled to accept as final any particular social, political, or other philosophy, or if restrictions are placed on their critical faculties, or if they are forbidden to state the truth as they honestly find it. In the life of the university, as in the life of the world at large, there is no source of creative activity other than the individual human spirit. Confine that spirit within rigid limits, and it soon becomes sterile. That is the unanswerable reason for unswerving fidelity to the principle of academic freedom. Upon its maintenance depends the continued vitality of Harvard and every other university. It may be argued, nevertheless, that however important academic freedom may be, since young men and women are compelled to attend classes, the university is under an obligation to see that they are not compelled to listen to and to absorb unsound doctrine. There is an obligation. But what is unsound doctrine? And what can afford greater protection against it than free inquiry conducted by men whose intellectual processes conform with the highest requirements of true scholarship? How better can the university meet its obligation to its members than by appointing such men and giving them a free hand ? For my part, I would have little faith in my own beliefs and principles if I felt that they needed the shelter of authority and could not withstand the searching analysis of those who honestly hold otherwise. And I assume, of course, that in any well-conducted institution both sides of controverted questions will be adequately presented. Doesn't it all come down to picking a group of clear-thinking scholars, who are primarily scholars, balancing the inevitable tendencies to right and left, and then letting discussion rage? As in the case of outside activities, there is a point beyond which I would not go. I would never permit the universities to be subjected, in the name of academic freedom, to an organized effort to use them as propaganda mediums. To state an extreme case for purposes of illustration, if a group of industrialists, who believe in high tariff protection, should undertake, directly or indirectly, to promote the teaching of such a doctrine in the university, and if any member or members of the faculty should lend themselves to such an organized undertaking, the university should take suitable measures to protect itself. And this would be equally true in any other case of an organized effort from the outside to influence teaching. To hold otherwise would be not to defend academic freedom but to justify its perversion. The line might conceivably on occasions be hard to draw, but the principle is clear and definite. If a true scholar honestly seeks the truth he should be permitted to expound it as he finds it. without restrictions of any kind, no matter how radical his views may be. If, however, he deems it his duty to serve some other cause, then his place is in the outside world, and not in a university. It is not a question of loyalty. If a man's loyalty is to the high mission of the university, well and good. If his real loyalties He elsewhere, he should not endeavor to serve two masters. However, it is so vital that academic freedom should never be brought into question that disciplinary action should not be taken by a governing board unless it is clear either that outside interference exists or that they are confronted with an organized movement. I apologize for having written at such length. Having started, I wanted to think this business through, for my own satisfaction. But do tell our friends who are troubled that there is no cause for anxiety, and that as Harvard begins her fourth century of service, she is entitled without reservation to the whole-hearted support of all Harvard men. Sincerely yours, (S) OGDEN L. MILLS �7 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN Legal Institute Scores Marked Success Carberry Heads Education Grads Again Two more meetings held during the past fortnight brought the divisional alumni sea- a close. To call the Law Alumni association's gathering a meeting is to use an understatement. Actually it was a series of five evening meetings, comprising the university's first law institute, plus a closing banquet in celebration of the school's founding more than a half-century ago. Under the co-operative auspices of the association, headed by Morey C. Bartholomew, LLB '09, and the school, headed by Dean Francis M. Shea, faculty members reviewed recent developments in several important fields of the law. Interest mounted as alumni heard about the work of the Supreme court at the present term, about recent development in New York practice, in federal taxation, in the law of torts, about important problems of administrative law and about the problem of bureaucracy. At the celebration banquet on the final night the guest speakers were Jerome N. Frank, member of the Securities and Exchange commission; Edmund M. Morgan, professor of evidence at the Harvard Law school; former Supreme Court Justice Joseph Rosch, LLB '00, of Albany, president of the New York State Bar association. James McCormick Mitchell, LLB '97, was toastmaster. Members of the university's ofson to ftcial family also were at the speakers' table. Julius A. Schreiber, LLB '89, a member of the first graduating class, spoke for his classmates. So pleased were those concerned with the week's events that hope is high for a permanent law institute for alumni, to be operated under similar auspices.

New Course in Public Administration Loudly and often have students of American public affairs lamented the lack of interest in education for public service. The University of Buffalo responds to a growing need with the establishment of a new graduate curriculum leading to a graduate certificate in public administration. The program will cover an academic year following college graduation. Students will be given field work interneships in various phases of public administration, with emphasis on public welfare, city planning and housing. They will work in conjunction with the Planning Research station established some time ago jointly by the university- and the Buffalo City Planning association. Students will take courses in public finance, local government, legislative and legal aspects of public administration, housing and city planning, community organization, accounting and advanced economics and sociology. The courses and field work will be organized in Millard Fillmore college, the university's downtown division, and in the Summer session. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

From Buffalo late last month went out the announcement of a new "Work-Study plan" under which the university and a group of co-operating employers of the area will put educational opportunities in the hands of able young men and women. According to the terms of the plan, qualified students will receive a reduction in tuition of 14 2/3 per cent, will be enrolled for five years instead of four, and will be employed by pairs on the basis of alternating four-month stretches of work and study. Dr. Lewis A. Froman, dean of Millard Fillmore college, will be director of the Work-Study plan, with Norman Burns, BS (Bus) "29, assistant director. "Every year a number of especially able graduates of Buffalo high schools find it impossible to continue their education in a college or a university," Chancellor Capen pointed out in announcing the plan, "because they cannot meet the tuition fees and other charges. The admissions officers of the University of Buffalo every year come in contact with many such students. The university's regular scholarship funds are limited. They do not suffice to meet the necessities of all of the superior students who would like to attend the university but cannot afford to do so." The students participating in the plan will fill jobs in pairs. While one member of the pair works, the other will attend school. At the end of four months they will change places. During the four months of work, the student will attend Millard Fillmore college (the downtown division of the university) one or two nights a week. Each participant will be free every other summer to attend the sTx-week Summer session. Because the university wishes to help those young high school graduates of exceptional ability who are financially handicapped and because the opportunities for employment are limited, a candidate must be in the highest fifth of his graduating class, and must offer evidence that his means are insufficient to enable him to pay the regular tuition. Many business and industrial concerns are co-operating on the plan. The univer- COUNCIL May, 1938 New Tufts President to Speak Here Degrees and Certificates Total 450 From 1875 until his death in 1905, the Rev. Elmer Hewitt Capen was president of Tufts college. In 1898 his son, Samuel P. Capen, received his bachelor's degree there. In 1921 Samuel P. Capen was being considered for the chancellorship of the University of Buffalo, and Leonard Carmichael was getting his bachelor's degree from Tufts. Today Dr. Carmichael is dean of the faculty of arts and sciences at the University of Rochester. Next fall he will assume the presidency of Tufts college. DR. CABMICHAEL Thus there is than passing interest in the fact that Dr. Carmichael will deliver the main address at Buffalo's 92nd Commencement on June 8. Additional reasons include his prominence in the field of psychology where he is well known for his research in the development of behavior. He holds a PhD from Harvard, has taught at Princeton and Brown universities, has been visitmore sity's contribution is a tuition scholarship of $220 for the five-year course. Unfortunately, a participant in the plan cannot hope to be self-supporting. His wages, however, may be sufficient to cover his tuition and all other expenses except room and board. Thus, participation in the plan will in most cases be possible only for residents of the Niagara area. The Work-Study students may enroll in either the College of Arts and Sciences or the School of Business Administration. Although the general idea is not new, the Buffalo plan differs from that at Antioch, Gncinnati and other colleges in three important ways: 1) It is limited to students who could not otherwise afford college; 2) It includes only students who were in the highest fifth of their high school graduating class; 3) Its work period is set at four months so as to fit in with the semester plan, whereas in other colleges it runs from eight to 11 weeks. ing professor at Harvard and Clark.

Bequeaths Salary Fund Scarce indeed are the patrons of arts and letters who think, not of bigger and better facilities, but of the stipend of the toooften forgotten teacher. Surprised were many observers therefore to learn recently that Mrs. Sarah N. McArthur of Buffalo had died leaving a will establishing a fund for salaries of the university's instructional staff. The will makes specific bequests of approximately $100,000 to relatives, friends and charitable organizations, the remainder to become the "George P. and Sarah N. McArthur fund" for the university. The exact sum will not be known until the estate is settled. Says the will in reference to the university fund: "I believe that such salaries and compensations are frequently inadequate." �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 2 New Honorary Fraternity Lists Out Sixteen Alumni on Spring Selections honor.

Speakers were Dean Julian Park of the College of Arts and Sciences; Head Football Coach James E. Peelle; John S. Allan, BS '27, LLB '30, president of the General Alumni association and Alumni Secretary William G. Cook, BS '27. Toastmaster was Jackson B. Clark, LLB '14, of Fredonia. In the nation's capital earlier in the month, the Washington Alumni club held the last of a series of monthly dinners in honor of visitors from campus. This month's guest of honor was Dean Park, who had been attending sessions of the American Council on Education. Gets National Office Alumni Secretary William G.

Courses Two short postgraduate courses, one in exodontia and oral surgery, the other in general anesthesia and nitrous oxide analgesia wi 11 be held under Dental school auspices on June 8, 9, 10 and 11. Because of limited facilities and need for individual instruction, the exodontia course will be restricted to 15 members, the anesthesia course to six. ■'The courses are being given to satisfy the increasing demand for this type of instruction for practicing dentists" says Dean Russell W. Groh, DDS '18. "Registration will be made in order of receipt of applications." CBOSBY IN MAYTIME A cross-campus view of the School of Business Administration building �ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN J Unusual Alumni Activity Makes Busy Spring They use the word "recession" in talking about current business conditions. Its antonym, "affluxion" aptly describes Buf- falo alumni affairs this spring. There has been an almost steady flow of thought and effort in the general direction of Alma Mater, and that flow has not ceased yet. This is especially true of divisional alumni groups, some of which are showing startling activity. Pharmacy As though stimulated by one of the elixirs sought by their alchemist predecessors, members of the Pharmacy Alumni association showed unexpected interest in their First Annual Spring clinic, held in mid-April. A total of 192 persons registered during the two days of lectures and demonstrations in Foster hall. They heard about vitamin products, sick room supplies, cosmetics, prescriptions and stream lined selling. They met and listened to J. Leon Lascoff, president-elect of the American Pharmaceutical association and Edgar S. Bellis, president of the New York State Pharmaceutical association. They met for dinner, saw the Gregory Memorial award for outstanding service to the profession go to Harry J. Dimond, non-graduate proprietor of a Buffalo drug store, and elected the following officers for 1938-39: President, J. Sinclair Hill, '26, Niagara Falls; first vice president, Carleton P. Vernier, '33, Buffalo; second vice president, J. Raymond Bressler, '20, Rochester; secretary, Magdalene T. Schnabel, '22, Buffalo; treasurer, William H. Young, 25, Buffalo. Retiring President John H. Hobbie. '33 was elected a trustee of the General Alumni association. Medicine Since they switched their annual meeting date from June to April, the members of the Medical Alumni association are coming to regard an attendance of 500 as not unusual. This year's registration was up to expectation. On the clinical program were seven experts in various fields of medicine, including one Nobel prize winner. On the program of the 63rd anniversary banquet was Indiana's Representative Samuel B. Pettingill, onetime New Deal Democrat now at odds with the Administration. On the program of the luncheon and business meeting was an election of officers for the next two years. Theresults: President, George E. Slotkin, 11; vice president, Frank N. Potts, '12; Gets Rate Collection The Lockwood Memorial library has become the only depository in the world for a rare collection of manuscripts, notes and books of 120 modern English poets. They were procured by Librarian Charles D. Abbott during a recent three-month visit to England under sponsorship of the Car- secretary-treasurer, Louis A. Siegel, '23. The new president succeeds Francis D. Leopold, '14. Business Business Administration alumni hold clinics during the year, but save their annual banquet for non-professional enjoyment. This year's speaker was Ivan Hekimian, MD '27, onetime officer in the wartime Turkish army, onetime secret service agent in the wartime British army. Only one-half of his experiences in the Near East could be squeezed into the hour allotted him. Unanimous was the demand that he return some day to tell the other half. Elected to office for next year were: President, Robert E. Rich, '35; first vice president, Harold C. Walter, '35; second vice president, Norman I. Peterson, '37; secretary-treasurer, Marshall K. Stoll (Ed) '36. To the GAA Board of Trustees goes Richard W. Collard, '35. Alumnae Because they wanted to throw their support to the 25th anniversary celebration of the Arts college (see below) the University of Buffalo Alumnae called off their dinner this year. But the directors had their annual dinner meeting at which they elected these officers: President, Dorothy M. Caldwell, LLB '36; vice president, Virginia N. Kerr, BA '33; treasurer, Olga E. Murray, BA '30. New GAA trustee is Helen G. Walker, MD '28. Arts To participate in the Silver Jubilee of College of Arts and Sciences, scores of the delegates of colleges and universities of the East assembled in Norton hall on May 14. The total registration (upwards of 300) included secondary school persons interested in the educational conference which had been arranged, as well as alumni back for the day. That evening, in a dazzling atmosphere of silver, blue and white, the celebration got down to local matters. Tributes were poured on the university, the college, Chancellor Capen, Dean Julian Park. Graduates saw themselves well able to take pride in their college's phenomenal rise, well able to show optimism about the next quarter- John S. Allan, BS '27, LLB '30. Education The Alumni in Education have confined their regular assemblies to receptions for graduates on the university's two commencement days. This year they essayed an evening dinner, scored a distinct success, determined to repeat it. Not abandoned however, was the June reception, at which next year's officers will be chosen. Law In preparation was probably the year's most ambitious undertaking—a law institute to last a whole week, starting May 23. Dean Francis M. Shea and Law Alumni President Morey C. Bartholomew, LLB '09 evolved a program of nightly lectures to be climaxed on the trustee, closing day, May 28, with a banquet to celebrate the founding of the Buffalo Law school, which was established in 1887, graduated its first class in 1889, became part of the university in 1891. century.

Beyer, BS (Bus) "32 has been having a little fun at the university's expense since his arrival this spring in China where he is employed by Spencer Kellogg & Sons of Canada, Ltd. A few weeks ago the Alumni office received from him a package of beer coasters which he had discovered in a Shanghai hotel, advertising (in blue and white) a brew known as "UB Beer." Now come snapshots taken in Hankow, temporary capital of China, where he will be located for a year. After pleasant comments on their import (see cut) he gets down to business. An excerpt: "We've had eight air raids since I've been here. Three at least were ultra spectacular with much bombing, noise, smoke and excitement. "Night raids are almost beautiful with the darkened city and the stabs of prying searchlights illuminating the raiding planes as they dart across the sky. Anti-aircraft bursts keep the show lively." Rich NewFrosh Mentor Robert E. Rich, BS (Bus) '35, new president of the Business Administration Alumni association (see page 3), last month was appointed freshman football coach at the university starting in September. The new instructor of the Baby Bulls is no novice at coaching. Captain of the varsity teams of 1y33-34, he took on the mentors assignment at Buffalo's Riverside high school after graduation. That year he turned out one of the greatest secondary school teams in the East which swept through the season undefeated and almost untied. Elect Pharmacy Grads Two alumni of the School of Pharmacy won offices in the newly organized Buffalo Hospital Pharmacists" association. They were, vice president, Ethel I.

Main attraction, so far as the visitors are concerned, is an all day educational conference led by five men prominent in the field. Theme NOYE '27 of the morning session is "The Regents' Inquiry into the Character and Cost of Public Education, as it may affect liberal arts colleges and secondary schools in this State." It will be the first public conference on a survey which took three years and which was completed only a few weeks ago. Speakers will be Buffalo's Chancellor Capen, who was co-director of the inquiry; Francis T. Spaulding, professor of education at Harvard university and director of the survey of secondary education in the inquiry, and John Lord O'Brian, LLB '98, chairman of the New York State Regents' committee on teacher education. Theme of the afternoon session is "Trends and Tendencies in Liberal Arts Education". Inevitably any discussion of developments in the last 25 years must include Buffalo, whose college stands near the top of the national list in number of outstanding improvements. Afternoon session speakers will be President Raymond A. Kent of the University of Louisville, on "The Past and the Present," and Harlan H. Homer, associate commissioner for higher education. University of the State of New York, on "The Present and the Future". Final event will be the Silver Jubilee banquet, with which is combined the 18th annual dinner of the Arts Alumni association. Main speaker will be Clarence S. Marsh, former dean of the School of Business Administration, now vice-president of the American Council on Education in - Washington, D. C. There will be tributes from Dr. Robert T. Bapst, superintendent of Buffalo's school system; Dr. Harry W. Rockwell, president of the Buffalo State Teachers college; J. Keith Noye, BS '27, president of the alumni association and others. Toastmaster will be Dr. John T. Horton, BA '26. Alumni officers for 1938-39 will be elected. Guest of honor, of course, will be Dean Julian Park, who was part of the original faculty of 1913 and who has seen the college through its first quarter of a century. General chairman of the day is Dr. Augustus H. Shearer, director of the Library Science curriculum, professorial lecturer in history and librarian of Grosvenor library, who has been on the college faculty for 20 years. His assistants are: Dr. L. Grant Hector and William G. Cook. BS '27, executive committee; Associate Professor C. Merrill Brown, exhibits; Dr. Edward G. Schauroth and Dr. Henry Ten Eyck Perry, hospitality; Dean Park, invitations and program; Assistant Professor Carlos E. Harrington, MS '25, signs; Dr. Harriet F. Montague, BS '27, MA '29, auditorium; Dr. Annemarie M. Sauerlander, BA '28, MA '30, luncheon; Waring A. Shaw, BA '31, jubileebanquet. The students are represented by Talman W. Van Arsdale Jr.. president of the Class of '38, president of the Arts college Student council and son of Talman W. Van Arsdale Sr„ LLB '18. An extra fillip to the occasion will be the appearance at the banquet table of Dean Park's new 25-year history of the college, which is now in publication. It is safe to predict that it will include mention of that first faculty: Albert P. Sy, PhD '08 and Walter M. Ralph, chemistry; M. Smith Thomas, AC '14, BA '32 and James Cadwell, physics; Lester B. Gary and Rosa R. Weigand, biology; Wilfred H. Sherk, mathematics; Philip Becker Goetz, English; Felix Casassa and Dr. Park, French; William Oncken, German; Peter Gow, Latin, and John Oppie McCall, DDS '04, secretary of the courses. It is safe to predict that it will include mention of the classrooms in the Medical and Dental school buildings, in the Sidway building at Main and Goodell streets, and in Townsend hall; of the migration COLLEGE'S DEAN PARK His 25-year history is in publication to the new campus in 1922, the occupancy of Foster and Science halls, and finally of Edmund Hayes hall. It is safe to predict that it will include mention of that first graduating class of 1920: Annis E. Fox (now Mrs. Harry Wander); Randolph S. Linderman and Anna C. Ulrich, with James C. Blair, MD '22, the first bachelor of science in medicine. Today there are 1582 degree-holders living, plus enough shorter course certificate-holders to put the total well over 1800. With all this for background, alumni, faculty, students and guests will have ample opportunity to speculate pleasantly about what the next 25 years will bring. 1933 Law Class Meets Former Law Dean Carlos C. Alden and Dean Francis M. Shea were guests of honor at a reunion dinner of the Law Class of 1933 last month in Buffalo's Riviera restaurant. General chairman was Charles W. Schohl. Edmund J. Shea is class president. new �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Where Are They Now? A new list of lost alumni is published every month.

New York and Washington Clubs Meet Informality keynoted the annual meeting of the New York Dental Alumni association a few weeks ago in Gotham's Hotel Pennsylvania. There were no speeches, the program consisting of brief remarks by prominent members of the group, followed by entertainment. In the election, David B. Jacobs, '18, of Far Rockaway, N. V.t was chosen president to JACOBS '18 succeed Morgan S. Smith, '22, of Lawrence. Bernard Katzenstein of Manhattan was elected secretary. President-elect Jacobs is chief dental con- MA '30 and lima Lester McGrath, BA '29. Dr. McGrath, who is assistant to the chancellor, is on leave of absence as research assistant to Dr. George F. Zook, president of the American Council on Education. Twenty graduates were present, including Clifford M. Carter, AC '24 and Sara Rice Carter, BA '23, of Baltimore. Planned for early May is another dinner with Dean Julian Park of the College of Arts and Sciences as guest speaker. Council Election Near Students Add to Fund Alumni month will choose three representatives on the University council. Notification to that effect went out to all graduates from the office of Council Secretary Philip Becker Goetz several weeks ago and nominations are now coming in. One alumnus will be chosen for the Athletic council at the same time, according to notices sent by Shaw Livermore, next secretary. University councilors whose terms expire this year are George G. Davidson, Jr., LLB '97; Griffith G. Pritchard, DDS '18 and Herbert A. Smith, MD '07. The Athletic council member ending his is Lester S. Knapp, MD '27. Dr. Knapp has asked his friends not to nominate him again, because of increasing conflict with his professional and teaching duties. He withdraws with a long record of able service behind him. A one-time football captain, he served five years as assistant varsity and freshman coach, and sat on the Athletic council ever since his term graduation. It is emphasized that voters should vote for exactly three candidates for the University council, and each of the three must be a graduate of a different division. Noncompliance with these simple rules will make a ballot void. The complete list of nominees, with biographical sketches and blank ballots, will be mailed to voters early in May. Bequeaths Law Books The Law school is named as recipient of the law library of the late Frank S. Sidway, LLB '94, who died in January. It contains more than 1000 volumes of reports and important texts, many of them now out of print. They will be set up as a memorial collection in the Law school library. sultant of St. Joseph's hospital, New York, and past commander of the Far Rockaway post of the American Legion. Guests of honor at the monthly dinner of the Washington Alumni club early in April were Dr. Earl J. McGrath, BA '28, Insisting that they be given the right to add their bit to the Alumni Swimming Pool fund, students a few weeks ago held a benefit dance in Norton hall. Officially sponsored by the freshmen and sophomore classes, the event netted $25 which is added to this month's figures. The total number of gifts is now 1569, aggregating $10,933-55.

First Vice President Richard A. Case, '36 was the first to depart the premises. He was sent to Minneapolis by his company (Washburn-Crosby). Then President Robert L. Beyer '32 went to China to take charge of a tung oil plant of Spencer Kellogg & Sons. Present wielder of the gavel is Second Vice President Robert E. Rich, '35. Because his business (milk and cream) requires no sudden transfers to other cities, he is expected to survive at least until the annual meeting of the association. The date for that event has been set at Wednesday, May 4, at 6:45 P. M., in the Wilcox mansion in Buffalo's Delaware avenue. Guest speaker will be Ivan Hekimian, MD '27, who will describe his experiences as a British secret agent on the Turkish front during the World war. General chairman of the dinner is Richard W. Collard, '35. Blast Kills Campus Crew Member Pharmacy '34 Reunion Francis P. Taylor, Niagara Falls, N. V., was elected president of the Pharmacy Class of 1934 at the annual reunion held in mid-March in Hotel Statler, Buffalo. Joseph Treger, Buffalo, was elected vicepresident and Alexander Slepian, Buffalo, secretary. Dean A. Bertram Lemon, '13, was guest of honor.

Duckwitz opened the only door to the compartment under the stairs of the Lockwood Memorial library, he was greeted by a burst of flames. The accompanying explosion dislodged the huge limestone blocks and tipped them over like so many lumps of sugar. Mr. Duckwitz was rushed to the hospital where he died two days later. Cause of the blast is believed to be an accumulation of natural gas, which abounds in the rock stratum under the campus. What actually set it ablaze is still undetermined. Most fortunate aspect of the accident was the time—7:ss A. M. Another hour would have seen dozens of students using the library stairs. Damage is estimated at $2500. manent Who Said Recession? recession, Despite the current business second-semester enrollment in Millard Fillmore college, the university's downtown division, shows an increase of 215 students over the same period ast year.

More stringent educational requirements, the appearance of the "Academy of tional associations are making the pharmacist more aware of his own importance. The public is catching on too. Radio gags about drug-clerks who went to college to learn how to make egg salad sandwiches are no longer sure-fire. Believing that HOBBIE '33 Buffalo-area professional men are ready for the next step in this direction, the Pharmacy school and the Pharmacy Alumni association plan an annual "Spring clinic" on the university campus. To inaugurate the new venture, a series of special lectures, demonstrations and discussions by outstanding authorities will be held Tuesday and Wednesday. April 19 and 20. All pharmacists of Western New York, whether Buffalo alumni or not, are invited to attend free of charge. "Other professional groups have held such meetings for years," Dean A. Bertram Lemon, PhG' 13, points out. "Like these other professions, the profession of pharmacy has been advancing rapidly, and it is hoped that the 'Spring clinic' will give the practicing pharmacist an opportunity for intensive study of some of the latest developments in both the professional and the commercial aspects of his field." The executive committee in charge of arrangements includes four faculty members and 15 representatives of the alumni association, of which John H. Hobbie, '33 is president. The list: Alumni representatives: John L. Allen, '32 (essays); Mr. Hobbie (reception); Mearl D. Pritchard, '21 (registration); Bertha J. Russo, '28 (luncheons); Alexander Slepian, '34 (class reunions); Paul - Big Conference to Bring Delegates from Other Colleges Liberal arts education at the University of Buffalo is 25 years old this year. It was in 1913 that a modest beginning on instrunction in the arts and sciences was made. The college has been gaining ground every year since and today its high place in the academic world is unquestioned. In celebration of that quarter of a century of university history, the college administration, faculty and alumni plan a joint anniversary party this spring. Tentatively set for May 14, it will consist of an all-day educational conference attracting college, university and secondary school personnel from many parts of New York state and contiguous territory, closing with the birthday banquet in the evening. First appointment made by Chancellor Capen was that of general chairman of the event. Selected was Dr. Augustus H. Shearer, who has been associated with the university for 20 years and is now director of the library science curriculum and professorial lecturer in history. President J. Keith Noye, BS '27 of the Arts Alumni association has agreed to stage his official party in connection with the May 14 celebration banquet, and members of the undergraduate body are considering ideas for participation in the festivities of the day.

Beside the trustees of the General Alumni association, whose president, John S. Allan, BS '27, LLB '30 had called the meeting, there were members of the Alumni council, members of the divisional alumni groups, members of the Alumni Club, Inc., members of five of the existing 13 branch alumni clubs, and a half-dozen specially invited non-alumni members of the faculty, including officers of the Athletic council and the faculty committee on policy and co-ordination of athletics. With the announced purpose of using this gathering to clarify the place of the alumni in the university picture and of laying foundations for a platform of future alumni activity, President Allan had prepared an agenda covering public relations, athletics, co-ordination of the various alumni groups and out-of-town alumni representation on Buffalo alumni bodies. Participants came in a spirit of helpfulness. Various points of view were aired. Interest mounted as the conference got down to bed rock on more than one problem. When the meeting was over there was a general feeling of accord among an assortment of groups which may not always have understood each other in the past. Said one guest: "We've made progress by finding a common starting point." To President Allan the establishment of understanding between alumni and unversity authorities is only the first step. Ahead still lies the tremendous task of creating a group consciousness among the alumni at large. There would follow the desire to appear well in the eyes of a world which is even now judging them by their service to their Alma Mater. From that desire would spring action. Toward that goal Alumnus Allan plans to move next by an attemp to draw the classes and the out-of-Buffalo groups closer to the General Alumni association. After an early canvass of their opinions, he believes work can be started on plank-hewing. better �3 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN S. A.

But the rumblings of desire for activity have been felt for the last twelvemonth. A preliminary committee meeting last summer empowered Morey C Bartholomew, '09 to act as chairman of a reorganization move. His first act was to call for class representation In the Buffalo club a fortnight ago assembled class delegates spreading from 1895 to 1937. They dined, listened to some addresses, then elected permanent BARTHOLOMEW '09 officers for the year Chairman Bartholomew they entrusted the management of l with the assistance of: Karl k, '08, vice president; Denis n, rOB, secretary; Myron S. Short, '08, treasurer; Christopher Baldy, '10, G. Thomas Ganim, '27, Philip Halpern, '23 and Edward C. Schlenker, '06, councillors. To most alumni of the Law school, Francis M. Shea, its new dean, is a stranger. Those who read their newspapers know that since he came on the scene, the school has achieved official recognition by the American Bar association and the Association of American Law Schools. That he has been thinking about constructive relationships between the school and its alumni became apparent at the meeting when he outlined a four-point program of co-operation between the two entities. Emphasizing the school's responsibility for extending educational opportunities to its graduates, his first three points were in that category, while his fourth called for a service from the alumni. The program: 1) A legal clinic by nationally eminent teachers and leaders of the profession, possibly to be held this spring with a 50th anniversary celebration of the school (founded 1887 as the Buffalo Law school, attached to the university in 1891)-2) Seminar courses on new developments in the law by members of the ■ faculty. 3) Publication of legal information in bulletin form for alumni only. 4) An alumr* -lacement committee for locating new graduates at livable salaries. On the last point Dean Shea's comment was: "If you take on this responsibility, many ills we now have at the bar will, i think, find their cure. I can vouch that if the class that goes out in June is given a decent chance for a decent living there will not be one crook, one 'ambulancechaser, not one anti-social figure in the lot". �4 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN Published monthly except July, August and September, by the University of Buffalo at 3435 Main Street, Buffalo, N.

Rosengren, LLB '27 of BufAlumni Leaders Will Plan Platform To graduates of a considerable number of American colleges and universities, alumni partkipation in the management of their institutions is a familiar story. Alumni representation on governing boards, alumni chairmanship or membership of important committees is not unusual. Alumni advisory posts in such important fields as student admissions, job placement, fund raising, athletics and publicity are nothALLAN, '27 ing new. Because he believes that there is a growing interest among Buffalo alumni for deeper participation in the university's program, President General Alumni association has issued a general call to all alumni leaders. On Jan. 22 he addressed the following "Alumni-Gram" to nearly 150 officers and leaders of the 13 branch clubs (plus some out-of-Buffalo groups not yet organized); the eight divisional associations and the Alumni Club, Inc.; all members of the Alumni council, and all trustees of the General Alumni association: THERE WILL BE NO GENERAL ALUMNI CELEBRATION ON UNIVERSITY DAY THIS YEAR—BUT I AM CALLING A PRIVATE DINNER MEETING OF ALL ALUMNI OFFICERS AND LEADERS THAT NIGHT TUESDAY FEBRUARY 22 1938—1NVIEW OF RECENT EVENTS IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE ALUMNI WORKERS COME TOGETHER TO DISCUSS OUR PLACE IN THE UNIVERSITY PICTURE —TO WORK OUT A PLAN FOR FUTURE GUIDANCE AND PRESENT OUR CONVICTIONS TO UNIVERSITY AUTHORITIES—YOU WILL HEAR MORE OF THIS LATER—BUT PLEASE RESERVE THE DATE NOW—WE NEED YOUR COUNSEL—YOURS CORDIALLY JOHN S ALLAN BS 27 LLB 30 PRESIDENT GENERAL ALUMNI ASSOC Shortly thereafter President Allan notified the invited delegates that the dinner will be held in Buffalo Consistory at 7 P.M. and that a frank symposium will be held, out of which should develop a platform for presentation to the university. As food for thought he listed ten questions which will shape the general lines of the discus-". sion. They include such important problems as athletics, public relations, and representation for out-of-town alumni. A critical question raised concerns the necessity for the existence of the General Alumni association. Best examples of alumni representation on official University of Buffalo bodies are the following: The University council, onethird of which, by statute, must be alumni (alumni members comprise the Alumni council) ; the Athletic council, the board of governors of the Student union (policy) and the board of managers of Norton hall (operation) which have two alumni members each. falo, president of the United States Junior Chamber of Commerce was included in the Top Ten Young Men of America for 1937, a list sponsored by America's Young Men, the who's who of male Americans under 40. The other nine: Edgar Bergen (Charlie McCarthy) ; Donald Budge (racquets) ; Thomas Dewey (rackets) ; William O. Douglas (SEC) ; Howard Hughes (aviation) ; Robert Hutchins (Chicago university) ; Franklin M. Kreml (traffic safety); Ernest O. Lawrence (atom-smashing) ; John Steinbeck {Of Mice and Men). Provides New Service A service rather novel in the professional field has been developed recently by M. Irving Chriswell, EdM '32, EdD '36. Assisted by Edwin H. Buchholtz, BA '37, Dr. Chriswell is offering vocational guidance to children on the eighth grade and high school levels.

Last month lawyers big and small from Lake Erie to Montauk Point gathered in New York for tbe annual meeting of the New York State Bar association. When Francis M. Shea became dean of the Law school in 1936. Before he had spent one semester on Eagle street, the school had been placed on the American Bar association's approved list. A few weeks ago it was admitted to membership in the Association of American Law Schools. Thus Buffalo's third oldest school has received the acknowledgment of the two nationwide law school accrediting agencies. The Law school has a record of 50 years of notable achievement, but it has been deprived heretofore of the approval of these accrediting agencies because it lacked the full-time faculty members and library facilities included in their require- they adjourned they had a new president and a new vice president, both Buffalo graduates.

The school's steady and unquestionably significant development has been accelerated sharply within the last two years. Most notable has been the strengthening of the full-time teaching staff. There have been four new full-time professors—young men, but men with enviable records for their years. New courses and new teaching methods are emerging. Administrative law, legislation, legal history, taxation have been added to the curriculum. The seminar and the thesis have made their appearance. The library has been transformed under the management of a full-time librarian and trained lawyer. In the last year 4597 volumes have been added to the stacks. But the transofrmation has not been one primarily of materials. The library has become an intensive workshop, busy as a beehive from 9 in the morning until 10:30 at night. ——~—————————— IMMTTT— Is the time for all good Medical Men to " « ■'*'"'■■■ £lan for the 63rd ANNUAL MEETING and4th ANNUAL CLINICAL DAY OF THE I MEDICAL ALUMNI ASSOCIATION SATURDAY, APRIL 23, 1938 I �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 4 THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN Published monthly except July.

Buffalo Man Gets All-American Citation Squeezed out by other campus news, Buffalo football events, no longer news, are still worth reviewing. Biggest single item was the university's maiden voyage on the All-American sea. One of a handful of small college teams so honored, the Bulls' star halfback, Danny Dalfonso, was nominated for the national board's mythical team. A serious leg injury kept him out of the last two games. Nevertheless the board awarded him its card of merit. For the same reason Dalfonso missed a chance to play in the East-West game on New Year's day. Said All-East Coach Andy Kerr: "We would have given him very serious consideration if he had not been injured." Dalfonso, along with the rugged Vito Grieco, center, made the sport scribes' All- Western New Yor eleven. Finally, Dalfon so won for the seconi season the most vaiua ble player troph awarded by the Kappa Delta Psi fraternity a ter selection by a spec ial campus board. A fifty-fifty biea c would have satisfiet many of the country leading coaches las season. That is wha DAN DALFONSO Jim Peelle got. Wins were recorded against Allegheny (13-7), Rochester (12-7), Kent State (13-0) and Defiance (12-7) while games were lost to undefeated Alfred (13-25), Hobart (7-12), Wayne (6-23) and R. P. I. (12-13). Season totals, Buffalo 88, opponents 94. Biggest news of the 1938 season is the signing of C.C.N.Y. for Oct. 1 in New York. Only other newcomer is Manchester college of Indiana, onetime state intercollegiate college champions, on Oct. 8 at home. The other games: Alfred away Oct. 15; Kent State away Oct. 22; Allegheny home Oct. 29; Hobart home Nov. 5; Wayne away Nov. 12; R.P.I, home Nov. 19. �2 To tbe Council of the University of Buffalo: I have the honor to submit the report of the chancellor for the academic year 1936-37: Community Relationships The primary function of the modern university, as of the medieval university, is professional education. In the United States, professional education, with the exception of theological education, has been entrusted to the institutions of higher learning only in comparatively recent times. The first formulation of the corpus of professional theory has usually been made by thoughtful practitioners. The higher schools have come upon the scene as agencies of professional education only when an emerging profession has grown to sizeable proportions and has begun to be concerned about the quality of service that it renders to the public. At this stage each profession has turned to the universities and has laid upon them the task of providing necessary theoretical instruction, as well as some training in practical techniques. The professions, not the universities, have exercised the initiative in this transfer of responsibility. If the universities of the United States have expanded the area of their operations in professional education more slowly than some have wished, nevertheless the lateral growth during the last half century is the most conspicuous aspect of their development. The quantitative growth of university education and of the means for carrying it on is, of course, formidable. But the essential change has been the change in its purpose and concept. Probably few persons are aware of the range of opportunities for professional training now represented in the universities of the United States. To the older professional schools of law, medicine, dentistry, engineering and pharmacy have been added schools of agriculture, art, drama, music, journalism, business administration, education, public administration, diplomacy, public health, nursing, librarianship and social service. Still more numerous are the professional curricula, not formally organized as schools. The number of recognized professions for which one or more universities in the United States now offer specific training is in the neighborhood of 50. Hand in hand with this extraordinary extension of the area of professional education has gone an equally extensive development of research. The annexation to the universities of each new field of professional training has stimulated inquiry both in the basic sciences underlying the professions and in the application of scientific principles to professional practice. Both in quantity and quality the research output of American universities now compares favorably with the output of any other nation. The change in university education which the lay public sometimes fails to see is a change in the center of gravity. The college of arts and sciences is no longer the dominant unit of the typical UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO The State of the University (frnm tbe Chancellor's Report) American university. It is still the fertilizing unit, the indispensable unit. But the bulk of the typical university's resources is devoted to professional education. The perennial question in all branches of professional education is: What shall be the proportion of theory to practice? A subsidiary question, almost equally important, is: By what means and in what environments shall students secure the necessary practical training ? To these questions there are no sure or permanent answers. With respect to the first, professional schools tend, to oscillate between two extremes of policy. In connection with the latter, there is now something like unanimous agreement that training in the operating techniques of a profession should as far as possible be secured through participation in professional practice under the guidance of experienced practitioners. Within the last two decades most of the professions have come to realize that they have a responsibility for the preparation of new members which they cannot wholly shift to the universities. In the broadest sense this means that the community has a responsibility, apart from the financial support of the higher schools, which it cannot evade if it is to receive the professional services which it demands. The community's responsibility is to foster and encourage cooperation between the universities and those organized agencies through which the professions render their respective services to the public. Such institutions as hospitals, libraries, courts, penal establishments, museums, schools, social welfare agencies and citizens' organizations employing a professional personnel for the attainment of social objectives are under an obligation to share with the universities the task of professional education. Since the reorganization of its council in 1920 the University of Buffalo has sought deliberately to realize the conception of the modern university which I have just outlined. The first task of the new council was obviously to strengthen and enlarge the College of Arts and Sciences until it could invite comparison with the best colleges in the land. But while it was building up the college, the council did not ignore the obligation of the university to provide, as far as its resources permitted, the various types of professional education needed in the section of the country that the university serves, and which are not already supplied by some other institution. To the four older professional schools of medicine, pharmacy, law and dentistry it has added divisions (schools or curricula) for the education of librarians, teachers, business executives, accountants, social workers, nurses and research scholars in the arts and sciences. It has offered instruction in banking, insurance, journalism and the earlier (and less expensive) stages of engineering. The council has been able thus to extend the range of the university's offerings in professional education, without impairing the support of existing divisions, only by cultivating to the fullest possible extent rhe policy of cooperation with the institutions for professional service within the community. For two generations the ablest local practitioners gave the university their time and accumulated knowledge and experience, without stint or price, and the organized health agencies were always ready to pool their resources with those of the university for the purpose of professional education. In the later development the council has assumed on the part of individuals and institutions the same readiness to cooperate for the improvement of professional education. Its expectations have in no case been disappointed. And in every instance the relations which the university has established with the professional agencies of the community have been mutually profit- able. The oldest of these cooperative relationships is that between the Medical school and certain hospitals. Three hospitals, the Buffalo General, the Children's hospital and the Buffalo Gty hospital place thenfacilities at the disposal of the university for the clinical instruction of medical students and practitioners. The connection between the university and the Buffalo General hospital dates from 1861, the Children's hospital from 1894 and the Gty hospital from 1920. The most recently organized division of the university is the Division of Nursing. The plan of nursing education rests altogether on cooperation between the university and local hospitals which conduct nurse training schools. The most extensive cooperations between the university and the community are the growth of the activities of the university's newer divisions. Indeed, the establishment of each of these divisions was dictated by the university's desire to fulfill a manifest need of the Niagara frontier region. The first of these undertakings was the course in library science—and in many respects this enterprise has furnished a pattern for the relationships subsequently entered into with other agencies of the community. The university organized the course in library science in response to requests from the local public libraries for assistance in training their professional personnel. For 18 years these libraries have joined with the university in conducting the training program. The degree to which the university has played its part in fulfilling the community's need for this class of professional specialists is indicated by the fact that all of the high school librarians appointed in Buffalo since the establishment of the course are graduates of the university, as are those of 14 neigh- �3 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN boring towns and cities. The College of Arts and Sciences had not graduated its first class before the demand came for the establishment of professional and general courses for teachers in the secondary schools. As fast as its means allowed the university sought to meet this demand. Courses in educational theory were offered, first through the agency of the department of psychology, then through a department of education, and finally, since 1931, through the School of Education. Probably no more fruitful cooperation between the university and any outside organization exists than that between the School of Education and the school systems of Buffalo and its surrounding towns. The evidence seems clear that the university has contributed to the improvement of the standards of the teaching profession in the Buffalo area. At the same time its School of Education has been oriented and fertilized by its intimate contacts with the public schools. Like the School of Education, the School of Business Administration was established in response to repeated and pressing requests from business leaders and from individuals desiring instruction in business administration. For the first two or three years of its existence the school offered its instruction in the evening. It soon became apparent, however, that the university could count on a considerable body of full time students. The bulk of the work of the school was therefore transferred to the daytime. But the university has not lost sight of the group for which professional instruction in business subjects was first offered. Something like a third of the total enrollment of the Millard Fillmore college (formerly the Evening session) consists annually of students of business subjects. Large numbers of employers have every year assumed the cost of the instruction of their more promising employes in certain business subjects, in the belief that the enterprises which they direct benefit from a more highly educated personnel. The youngest school of the university, the School of Social Work, exemplifies strikingly both of the policies which have guided the university in developing its offerings in the field of professional education. The germ of the school was a curriculum of social work administered by the College of Arts and Sciences in 1931. As the economic depression continued to run its course the demand for trained social workers increased rapidly. It enlarged its staff and offerings; and in 1935 the enterprise was organized as a separate division of the university. It is believed that the university's prompt response to this relatively new demand for professional education not only benefited the individuals and organizations who were the direct recipients of its provisions, but also improved the general conditions of the community. The training program of the School of Social Work is based on a tight integration of the university with the social agencies of Buffalo and the vicinity. Twenty-four of these agencies, public and private, sectarian and non-sectarian, urban and rural, cooperate with the university in the clinical instruction of prospective social workers. Probably no other professional school of the university makes a direct contribution to so many community undertakings. Two divisions of the university, the College of Arts and Sciences and the School of Education, now cooperate with the Buffalo Fine Arts academy and the School of Fine Arts in administering courses, one of which leads to the bachelor of fine arts degree, the other, to the degree of bachelor of science in education, for teachers of art. Each of the three central university services, namely the Lockwood Memorial library, the Bureau of Personnel Research and the Bureau of Business and Social Research, has important relations with organizations and individuals within the community. Mr. Lockwood's remarkable collection of rare books is a center of attraction to scholars and bibliophiles, and furnishes the nucleus for periodical exhibitions of literary rarities. The Friends of the Lockwood Memorial Library, now numbering 265, have assumed responsibility for building up the collection of old and rare books and of sponsoring the exhibitions. Five such exhibitions were held during the year under review and 664 additions were made to the collection. The Bureau of Personnel Research has continued to furnish the guidance and testing service for exceptionally able students in the high schools of Buffalo and surrounding towns which was initiated as part of the study of articulation of high school and college financed by the General Education board. The purpose of the study was to identify, while they were still in high school, students of extraordinary ability who planned to attend the university, to give them additional opportunities to work in the field of their interest, and to enable them to finish school and college in less than the normal number of years. The service proved so profitable to a considerable group of students, and so interesting to many high school teachers, that the university has continued it at its own expense since the expiration of the General Education board's grant. The Bureau of Personnel Research also has constantly extended the range of its contacts with business, industrial and educational agencies with a view to the placement of university graduates in appropriate forms of employment. This service soon showed itself to be mutually advantageous to employers and to the university community. The record in assisting members of the graduating classes to find employment was exceptionally high throughout the years of the depression. The Bureau of Business and Social Research was created with the double purpose of investigating business conditions in this area for the benefit of local busi- ness enterprises, and of supplying facilities for the statistical studies carried on by members of the social science departments. From the beginning the bureau has made available to business organizations monthly reports on conditions in various lines of business. It has also supplied statistical information on particular topics upon request. During the year under review it has rendered services of this character to various local and state officials. I do not need to remind the council of the university's largest contribution to the general welfare of the community. Millard Fillmore college, established as the Evening session in 1923, has from the beginning been dedicated to the task of providing such forms of professional and cultural education as various groups of adult citizens may from time to time need or desire. The policy has been from the start to keep its organization so flexible that it might instantly adapt itself to the changing phases of public need. But increasingly as time has gone on its students have become candidates for regular degrees. Since the establishment of the Evening session, 16,449 persons, residents of Buffalo and neighboring communities, have been enrolled. Its patronage has come from citizens engaged in all kinds of occupations and from every social group. A description of the university's formal relationships with organized agencies of the community does not cover its total contribution to civic undertakings of the city, the state and the nation. Some of the most valuable of these contributions are made by individual members of the teaching staff. Since the Great war all kinds of organizations, governmental and private, have shown an increasing tendency to call upon university experts for advice and scientific assistance. The services of professors in the natural and social sciences has been especially sought. The council is perhaps unaware of the variety and magnitude of these services. Even a list of those performed during a single year would be very long. The following few examples indicate the range of the university's contacts with local, state and national activities. I believe they reveal the fact that the university has encouraged the participation of its members in such activities as far as it can legitimately do so. Two professors have been given short leaves of absence to make special studies in connection with the Regents' Inquiry into the Character and Cost of Public Education in the State of New York. The university contributed both the chairman and vice chairman of the Automobile Industry committee of the Price Research conference affiliated with the National Bureau of Economic Research. Two members of the staff served as consultants on social and economic questions to the Republican National committee. One member of the staff is now serving as a member of a committee appointed by Gov. Lehman to collect materials for the Constitutional convention. One staff member was given a �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 4 leave of absence to conduct a survey of the place of the social sciences in the secondary schools sponsored by Teachers college, Columbia university. Members of the faculties of the School of Pharmacy and the College of Arts and Sciences have cooperated with the Board oi Health, the Buffalo Police department and the Buffalo Better Business bureau in making tests and giving technical advice. One member of the staff has served as a consulting member of the faculty of the Central Guard school of New York state. Faculty members have assisted —as committee chairmen and expert advisers—the Buffalo Council of Social Agencies, the Foreign Policy association, the Buffalo Forum service, the International institute, the Children's Aid society, the Mental Hygiene society, the National Youth administration, the Buffalo City Planning association and numerous other organizations devoted to social work and public education. Enrollment and Finances The total enrollment for the year under review was 4~49. the largest in the history of the university. The increase over the en. Ilment oi the preceding year was 73 per cent. This gross figure needs to be analyzed before one can understand the real movement of the university population. The regular session enrollment increased 2.1 per cent. The Summer session gained 8.3 per cent and Millard Fillmore college approximately 9 per cent. Last year I pointed out that an increase of 7 per cent in the total enrollment of the university-, made up chiefly of gains in the number of Evening and Summer session students, produced a relatively small increase in income from fees. The statement is still pertinent. Once more the report of the comptroller indicates that it was necessary to draw on the surplus in the general operating account of the year just ended in order to balance the budget for the year 193^-38. The sum of $21,291.69 was so appropriated, which represented all but $539.26 of the operating surplus. Although the university has continued to receive substantial gifts and bequests throughout the depression, its endowment assets are still much too small for its needs. Fees received from students constitute the chief source of income. The up- ward movement in the enrollment, which has now apparently established itself, is a welcome portent. But the university must still sail very close to the wind. It cannot embark upon new ventures which involve additional expenditures; nor can it at present restore the salary scales of 1932. Important Changes in the Divisions School of Medicine The Head of the department of general medicine resigned during the year under review. It seemed to the dean and to many of the senior members of the medical faculty, desirable to try the chairmanship plan of departmental administration. The teaching of the department is carried on in each of the three cooperating hospitals. The staff of the department numbers more than -40 members. The work of co-ordinating the instruction conducted by so many individuals in several centers is exceedingly complicated. It was the belief of these officers of the medical faculty that it should be assigned to a person who could devote a large fraction of his time to the undertaking. The council accordingly, on the chancellor's recommendation, designated the assistant dean of the School of Medicine as chairman of the department of general medicine. The executive committee of the department is to consist of the professor of medicine in charge of the medical teaching at the Buffalo General hospital, the professor of medicine in charge of teaching at the Buffalo City hospital, and the chairman of the department. If the experiment works well, I expect that this form of organization will be extended gradually to the other large departments of the university. Millard Fillmore College On March 25, 1937, the committee on general administration of the council voted to change the name of the Evening session to Millard Fillmore college. Four reasons led to the action. (1) The name "Evening session" was no longer descriptive. This division conducts numerous courses and several curricula during the daytime. (2) It is misleading to have the evening work of the university classified with the extension offerings of other institutions which are administered by so-called evening sessions. (3) In the interests of accuracy the university's evening instruction should be differentiated in title from federal and state free time adult education centers called "evening sessions." (4) It was a welcome opportunity7 to give fitting recognition to the services of Millard Fillmore, first chancellor and an organizer of the university. School of Law The School of Law has undergone radical reorganization. Except for voluntary services, contributed freely and enthusiastically since its establishment, the school could not have provided legal education of high quality. The lawyers and judges of Buffalo, under the leadership of the former dean, are responsible for the school's standards and reputation. But for some years its whole teaching body has been urging upon the council the necessity of entrusting all but a small fraction of the instruction to full time members of the faculty. The council provided in the spring of 1936 for the addition of three persons to the full time teaching staff and for a full time librarian. During the year under review the faculty consisted of four full time professors, one professor with certain outside connections who carried a full time load, and five volunteers. In June, 1937 the council added two more members to the full time faculty. It is believed that with these latest additions the full time staff will be large enough to meet all the immediate instructional demands of a school of approximately 200 students, and at the same time to offer a certain number of post-graduate courses. The new dean and his associates have addressed themselves vigorously to desirable changes in the curriculum. A beginning has also been made in reforming the system of examinations. Needs of the University In all of my annual reports for more than a decade I have emphasized the pressing need of a building for physical education and athletics. The council's decision to use the bequest of Mrs. Evelyn Howes Clark for the erection of such a building at last provides the university with this essential instrument of education. The plans of the gymnasium, which is already under construction, have been drawn to furnish ample facilities for the athletic activities of both the men and women students and for the instructional uses of the department of physical education and hygiene. The one remaining building for which there is a pressing need is a structure to house the activities of Millard Fillmore college and the Law school. Millard Fillmore college continues to grow at the 10 The conper year. rate of 9 or cent a gestion of the Law school building likewise constitutes a serious problem. I am aware that the council has frequently considered the desirability of erecting a large building on the site of Townsend hall to house both of these large divisions. I hope it may soon be possible to realize this project. Substantial additions to the endowment fund remain the greatest need of the university. Whether these additions take the form of unrestricted endowment or of special foundations to carry professorships is immaterial. The need is for money that can be used to help the university to carry its immense salary roll. The salary cuts must be restored at the earliest possible date if the university is to continue to be the effective instrument for higher education which it has become. This is a matter that concerns at least indirectly every citizen of Buffalo. I have said on previous occasions that an addition of at least 32,000,000 to the university's unrestricted endowment, or to the endowment of professorships, is needed to conduct adequately the educational enterprises to which the university is now committed. Second only to the need of additional endowment is the need of more funds for scholarships and fellowships. The university's provisions for these student aids are exceedingly limited. Every year the evidence multiplies that scores of exceptionally able young people in this area who are eager to attend the University of Buffalo are unable to do so because of their inability to pay its charges. Many of these young people must forego higher education altogether. This is society's loss; and especially it is Buffalo's loss. Respectfully submitted, SAMUEL P. CAPEN �5 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN The Comptrollers Report To the Council of the University of Buffalo, Buffalo, New York Gentlemen: The annual report of the comptroller for the fiscal year which ended June 30, 1937 is presented herewith. The balance sheet, Exhibit "A," shows endowment assets of 55,868,446.70; plant assets of $6,570,506.89; and operating assets of $53,593.51. On June 30, 1937, the balance in the endowment fund account was $5,839,713.96, as shown in Exhibit "B" presented herewith. On June 30, 1936 this balance was $5,323,270.01. The net increase for the year, therefore, in the endowment fund account was $516,443.95. Included in this increase was a bequest of $300,000 under the will of Mrs. Evelyn Howes Clark for the establishment of the Irwin B. Clark memorial and $154,348.16 received on pledges to the 1929 Endowment Fund campaign. The endowment fund account is made up of $1,985,572.22 of general purpose funds and $3,854,141.74 of special purpose funds as shown in Exhibit "B." The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1936 was $6,515,-918.16. The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1937 was $6,563,977.81. The increase during the year under review, therefore, was $48,059.65. The total operating income for the year was $987,890.61; the total operating disbursements were $966,059.66 as shown below. The year, therefore, closed with a credit balance of $21,830.95 which is 2.21 per cent of the total income for the year. From this surplus the sum of $21,291.69 was appropriated by the committee on general administration to balance the budget for the fiscal year 1937-38. The total operating income for the year exceeded the operating income of the preceding year by $45,800.83, while the total operating disbursements exceeded those of the preceding year by $40,683-27. The following is a comparative table of the operating account of the university for the fiscal years 1934-35, 1935-36, and 1936-37: Income 1934-1935 1935-1936 Fees Received from Students $726,383.26 $739,065.95 Income from Endowment 169,044.34 171,865.42 Dental Infirmary (Net) 14,747.48 13,322.89 appropriation from 1933-34 Surplus (Medical School) 10,000.00 _ifts Received to Apply on Salaries 9,400.00 Rental Property Income 1,182.00 1,430.00 Miscellaneous 7,781.80 7,005.52 Appropriation of 1935-1936 Surplus Total Income $929,138.88 Expenses $942,089.78 1936-1937 $768,753.50 172,497.31 12,598.24 7,400.00 1,730.00 8,198.17 16,713.39 $987,890.61 Expenses of Administration $124,651.61 $132,681.49 $138,558.25 Salaries of Instruction 503,011.06 507,469.41 528,860.53 Supplies Used in Instruction 24,843.29 22,344.76 26,435.12 Dperation and Maintenance of Buildings 88,057.84 89,734.02 82,660.17 Dperation and Maintenance of Central Heating Plant 22,859.33 20,912.08 20,986.37 Upkeep and Improvement—University Campus 27,210.62 30,934.87 45,364.14 DepartmenLibraries, General and 43,280.62 tal 36,950.57 43,902.72 Bureau of Business and Social Research 6,496.74 6,499.19 6,853.58 Department of Physical Education and Hygiene 10,551.19 14,521.74 14,601.66 11,719.34 rhe Registrar's Office 10,880.77 11,423.14 Furniture and Fixtures 1,932.81 2,775.49 6,192.00 Scientific Equipment 7.299.23 8,169.57 6,939.63 Catalogs, Bulletins, Printing and 7,892.22 Advertising 8,157.28 7,104.66 8,348i75 5,968.18 6,619.80 insurance [nterest on Mortgages and Notes Payable 17,712.88 15,596.71 15,033.07 2,029.78 1,904.97 Rental Property Expense 1,478.11 City of Buffalo Property Assess925.12 883.09 ments Collection of Endowment Fund 1,537.36 2,187.71 Pledges 2,103.39 $902,611.98 Total Expenses Surplus for the Year $925,376.39 26,526.90 16,713.39 $966,059.66 21,830.95 During the year 1936-37 fees received from students equalled 77.8 per cent of the total income of the university for the year a.id 79.6 per cent of the total cost of operating the university for the year.

Attention is again directed to the university's imperative need of additional endowment to yield free income. Such additional income is necessary for the improvement and development of the existing services of the university and for the restoration of the salary scale which obtained prior to the fall of 1932 when salaries throughout the university were reduced because of the depression. To meet these needs $2,000,000 of additional funds are required and it is to this problem that the attention of the friends of the university is earnestly directed. Such endowment may come in the form of endowments of professorships or departments of th university or may come as additions to general endowment.

This is the decision of the committee in charge, as announced by General Chairman Myron S. Short, LLB '08. At the close of business on November 30th the fund stood at $9307.05, donated by exactly 1301 alumni and friends. This, of course, will not build a swimming pool. Until the needed amount is forthcoming, the fund will be held in trust by the university as a nucleus for the swimming pool project. "The committee wishes to assure the donors that their gift will not be used for any other purpose than that for which they give," Mr. Short declared. "It will positively be used for the pool, and we have so labeled it in turning it over to the university. "I wish to thank most sincerely those who worked in the campaign, the captains, majors and division chiefs who executed our plans, and finally, those who contributed. "There are no other funds in the university treasury to take care of the pool, nor are there any large gifts available or in prospect, for that purpose. Therefore we shall continue to appeal to the alumni who either were not reached or did not understand the urgency of this cause. Once more I ask them to do their share in this first alumni-sponsored fund effort." Returns as of Nov. 30 follow: $250 Medicine, James E. King, '96. $200 Medicine, Nelson G.

Dr. Frank P. Graves, president of the University of the State of New York, and president of the United Chapters of Phi Beta Kappa, will present the charter to the new "Omicron chapter of New York." It was the same Dr. Graves who years ago helped to initiate the late President Elmer Hewitt Capen of Tufts college, father of Buffalo's Chancellor Samuel P. Capen. There are at present 30 facultymen who "made" Phi Beta Kappa at other institutions, and others are liberally sprinkled throughout the city. It was these who fostered the new Buffalo chapter, which comes into being with the faculty 30 as charter members, plus 20 newly selected individuals. It was this latter list which was awaited with great interest by many. Final tally: Eleven alumni of the College of Arts and Sciences; one alumnus of the Law school; four non-alumni; four undergraduates.

Clark Memorial gymnasium, it was found necessary, because of lack of funds, to defer completion of certain portions of it {Bulletin. October). When certain alumni leaders heard the news that one item not to be put in at this time was a swimming pool, they decided that something ought to be done about it. Through the Alumni council they presented a plan to the university, and volunteered to raise the necessary money. The University council readily assented and agreed to put the alumni label on the finished job. Chief credit for the idea goes to Nelson G. Russell, MD '95, longtime professor of medicine, onetime member of the Athletic council. But to Chairman Charles Diebold Jr., LLB '97, of the Alumni council was given the job of announcing plans for a $50,000 alumni effort, to begin on Nov. 1, under joint sponsorship of the Alumni council and the General Alumni association. The announcement was made at the testimonial banquet for Chancellor Capen on his 15th anniversary (see page 4). It is emphasized by sponsors of the project that the university is not asking for help. At considerable strain on its own slim exchequer it has contributed $70,768 to the original 3300,000 bequest of Mrs. Evelyn Howes Clark. This sum will cover most needs. But cover a swimming pool it cannot, and the university authorities simply planned to leave space for it, hoping some future donor would finish the job. The alumni themselves have determined to be that donor, and will use their own methods of raising the money. For general chairman they have selected a man experienced in this kind of enterprise. He is Myron S. Short, LLB '08, vice president of the Buffalo Savings bank, former president of the Buffalo V.M.C.A., and an old campaigner in "V" financial drives. As his two chief assistants he has chosen Dr. Russell and Christopher Baldy, LLB '10. As vice chairmen they will divide the alumni field between them. Dr. Russell supervising the three divisions devoted to the healing arts—Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacy (including Analytical Chemistry) while Mr. Baldy will have charge of the related fields of Law, Business Adminis- tration and Arts (including Education, Social Work and Library Science). Division majors follow: Medicine, James E. King, MD '96; Dentistry, Guy M. Fiero, DDS '05; Pharmacy, Mearl D. Pritchard, PhG '21; Law, Karl A. McCormick, LLB OLD CAMPAIGNER General Chairman Myron S. Short, LLB '08 P08; Arts, John S. Allan, BS '27, LLB '30; Business Administration, Robert L. Beyer, BS (Bus) '32. Team organization is progressing apace, and between Nov. I* and Nov. 5 more than 500 workers will make a personal canvass in Buffalo and in all other alumni areas of any size. In other places the solicitation will be made by mail. Leaders of the project are optimistic because of the specific nature of the cause and the natural appeal of an athletic and physical education enterprise. They also believe the alumni will see the economy in building the pool now while the gymnasium structure is still open, rather than in future, when the cost will be raised some $10,000 to $15,000. Slogan for the project: "Let's Finish the Job." Medical Men Elected "LET'S FINISH THE JOB" Architect's drawing of what the alumni have offered to build Three alumni won offices at the annual election of the Eighth district branch of the New York State Medical society in Olean last month. They were Leon J. Leahy, MD "20, Buffalo, vice president; Peter J. Di Natale, MD '24, Batavia, secretary; Fitch H. Van Orsdale, MD '91, Belmont, treasurer. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Alumni Kinsmen Add to Enrollment University of Buffalo enrollment increas- ed 8.5 per cent this year, according to Registrar Emma E.

The number is a sligbt decrease from last year's total of 81. Because of space limitation, the published list does not show cousins, nephews and "in-laws."

University Council Chairman James McCormick Mitchell stepped forward, addressed himself to "fellow alumni and friends of the university." and said, "we are here today to lay the cornerstone of our new gymnasium- the Iran B. Cla.k Memorial —and to dedicate the same to the uses of the university." Thus at high noon on Oct. 9 began one of the most memorable Homecoming day programs in alumni organization history, a program which went through several stages and did not end until 2 o'clock the next morning.

Chairman Edward Michael of the university's buildings and grounds committee lowered a sealed copper box into the cornerstone and placed the first trowelful of mortar thereon. Chancellor Capen then stood forth to acknowledge the gift of Mrs. Evelyn Howes Clark as a "gift of civic Memorable One the university, and tohear Dr. Livingston Farrand, who only the day before had handed the presidency of Cornell university over to a successor and become president emeritus of that great sister institution. There were tributes from John S.

But it was Guest Speaker Farrand, an old friend of the chancellor and himself nationally famous educator, who reminded Buffalo in no uncertain terms how lucky it is to have as the head of its university a man '"recognized by all of us as a master. Your good fortune in getting him here to Buffalo has helped us all." Smartest quip of the evening: Toastmaster Mitchell's comment on Mr.Diebold's announcement of the swimming pool project. Said he, "As I understand it, the gymnasium fills a long-felt want, and now you want a well-filled tank." a patriotism." Then the spectators adjourned, most of them to Norton hall, for lunch. By 2:15 they were together again, reinforced by many hundreds more, to watch the opening home game of the 1937 football season and the closing game of the Buffalo-Rochester series. The Bulls looked good in the first two quarters, in each of which Halfback Danny Dalfonso scored a touchdown. They looked sluggish in the third, and in the finale, Rochester took to the air. scored one touchdown and was bidding for a second when the game ended, Buffalo 12, Rochester 7. It was the first Homecoming game the Bulls have won. In Norton hall after the game the student body offered a coffee dance as an interlude before the testimonial banquet and homecoming ball in honor of Chancellor Capen.

It was on a cold Oct. 28, 1922, that he performed the two-fold function of accepting the educational reins of the institution, and the keys to the first campus building, Foster hall, which was dedicated the same day. In celebration of that event, which marked the beginning of the greater University of Buffalo, the alumni will hold a testimonial banquet in Dr. Capen's honor on Oct. 9, at 7:30 P.M. in Buffalo's Hotel Statler ballroom. To it have been invited all the alumni of Buffalo area, plus the faculty and members of the University council. Main speaker is Dr. Livingston Farrand, president emeritus of Cornell university. For his close friendship with Dr. Capen, for his achievement as a builder of Buffalo's great sister institution, for his wit and charm as a speaker, he was selected to make the address of the evening. Brief tributes also will be paid by alumni leaders. Toastmaster will be Council President James McCormick Mitchell, LLB '97. The testimonial dinner and the Alumni ball to follow, will climax the annual Homecoming day, which again this year has several attractive events on its calendar. At high noon administration, faculty, student body and alumni will congregate at the site of the new gymnasium, which is now a-building (see page 3). Chancellor Capen and Councilor Mitchell will speak briefly, and Chairman Edward Michael of the council's buildings and grounds committee, will wield the trowel. At 2:15 Jim Peelle's 1937 edition of the Buffalo Bulls will face the University of Rochester Yellowjackets in the first home game of the season. Buffalo won last year's contest 29-2. Blue and White followers anticipate another victory, despite rumbles of vengeance emanating from the Flower City. Between halves athletic and alumni officials will exchange salutations on the Rotary field public address system. At 4:30 all game patrons will be guests of Norton union at a coffee dance in Norton hall. The student body is arranging foi appointment of a committee of hostesses who have volunteered as dance partners for GUEST AND GUEST SPEAKER Left, Cornell's Livingston Farrand'; right.

"We have taken over the Statler ballroom and dining room for the entire evening. After the dinner, the Homecoming ball will be held. Art Leard's 12-piece orchestra will play from 10 P.M. to 2 A.M. "It will be a party to remember, and the entire evening's list of events is included in the price of one ticket."1 The banquet and ball are not "closed" affairs, it is pointed out. Husbands, wives, sweethearts and friends are urged to make it a truly civic celebration. Guests are invited to arrange in advance for group tables. The continuity of events will appeal to out-of-town alumni too, and special notices are being sent to leaders in the communities of Western New York. For those who arrive on campus before noon, Norton cafeteria will provide luncheon at 25 cents a plate and up. While a strong ticket committee is can- vassing the field as thoroughly as possible, any alumni who desire may secure them directly from the Alumni office.

Buffalo was one of eight institutions to receive the invitation. Those eight were sifted out of several hundred candidates. Each year the American Institute of Chemists awards junior membership to some outstanding Western New York chemistry student. The rank is irrevocable and may be replaced later by the rank of fellow. Each year for the last four years a Buffalo senior has won it. This year again it went to a member of Buffalo's graduating class. He is John A. Swartout of Kenmore. who received his bachelor of arts degree a few weeks later. Alumni on State Study Five persons connected with the university have been appointed by New York's Gov.

ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN 3 Construction of New Gymnasium Is Begun The facilities for physical education and athletics are woefully deficient The one vital deficiency remaining, for which no remedy is in sight, lies in the lack of facilities for physical education and athletics In no other department is the university for facilities. The appro- so handicapped priate development of physical education and sports will remain impossible until these facilities are provided No respectable development of physical education and athletics will be possible , until this need is met In preceding reports I hare emphasized the total inadequacy of existing facilities for physical education and athletics Thus, year after year, has Chancellor Samuel P. Capen, in his annual reports, pointed a reproachful finger at one of the university's sore spots. Concurrently, the popular mind has conceived an intense dislike for "The Barn," which has done drafty duty as gymnasium and field house at Bailey and Winspear avenues for many student generations. When Mrs. Evelyn Howes Clark died early in 1936, she bequeathed 5300.000 to the university, for construction of ■'some worthwhile" building on campus (Bulletin. October, 1936). Leniently failing to specify exactly what purpose the structure must serve, she merely stipulated that it must be "as pretentious as any on the campus." The choice seemed obvious to those who had served on teams, participated in intramurals, or been in physical education classes (at one time compulsory). But there was just enough talk about other needs, from dormitory to chapel, to cause months of speculation. The matter was further complicated by a clause in the will to the effect that if the moneyat present available would not ensure the desirable degree of pretentiousness, it should be put to work for a few years until that end were attained. The cornerstone As exciting, therefore, as the arrival of the Marines in a nickel thriller, was the announcement last July that construction of a gymnasium would start at once, with May, 1938, as the time set for completion. On July Bth surveyors staked out the excavation. Four days later sewer pipe was being laid inward from the Winspear avenue trunk. By August the digging machine had been in and out again, and on August 16th the first concrete piers were hardening. Steelwork started in September, and contractors promised to be ready for a cornerstone laying on October 9, which is Homecoming day (see page 1). Three hundred thousand dollars is a modest sum for a gymnasium, if completeness and adequacy are desired. It is possible to spend as much as a million, as at Yale, whose gymnasium is luxuriously ornate. Buffalo's long-sighted councilors, insisting on completeness and adequacy, whittled the ornateness out of the architect's plan, but still were faced with a project costing about 3425,000. Final decision was that the university will strain its own meager resources to add 570,768 to the original 3300,000. This, while providing the most essential features of a modern university physical education plant, will leave several items unprovided for, of which the principal one is the swimming pool. Space for the pool will be left, however, so that some future gift can be used to finish it. Meanwhile the space will be utilized as an indoor cage for football and other activities. To be known as the Irwin B. Clark memorial, Buffalo's tenth campus building will be located 1050 feet directly behind Edmund Hayes hall, which brings it reasonably close to Rotary field and the heating plant. It also is accessible to the parking lot and to Winspear avenue traffic. The exterior will be Georgian, in keep- will be laid IRWIN B. CLARK MEMORIAL as a prelude to Homecoming day, ing with the campus plan. Local rough limestone with Indiana limestone trim will be laid in irregular pattern, similar to that of the heating plant. The length will be 200 feet, depth 150 feet and height 45 feet above ground. The interior plan provides for three floors and a basement. There will be a large gymnasium, two smaller gynmasiums, varsity team room, freshman or visiting team room, several large and small locker rooms, protected open-air sun deck and exercise court. In the plan also are medical examination rooms, physical therapy room, offices, a large classroom, women's dancing and lounge rooms, showers and a drying room. Women's facilities will be on the right, men's on the left side. Principal rooms, like the gymnasiums, are for both sexes. The main gymnasium, occupying the second and third floors, will be 125 feet long, 85 feet wide and 30 feet high. It will accommodate three small practice basketball courts, which will be merged into one court with seating accommodations for 1500 persons at games. The smaller gymnasiums, 32 by 65 feet and 20 feet high, will be for badminton, volley ball, paddle tennis and similar sports. These also will occupy the second and third floors. A special exercise room with the usual bars, horses and rings, will also be on the second floor, along with men's and women's administrative offices. The third floor will contain four offices and a large classroom, the women's lounge, game room and medical examination room. From this floor one will gain access to the sun deck and exercise court, which will occupy the roof of the three-floor swimming pool. Here are the features for which funds are not at present available: Swimming pool, 100 by 60 feet; archery and rifle ranges; bowling alleys, squash extra locker and shower rooms.

LLB '30 riiilit, association is John S. Allan, BS '27, ILB "30, who takes the place of Robert I. Millonzi, BA "32, LLB '35. Chief Councilor Diebold, following graduation as president of his class and winner of the senior prize, was admitted to the bar and became associated with the iaw office of E. E. Coatsworth. In 1901 the firm of Coatsworth & Diebold was formed and Mr. Diebold retains his partnership in it today. He entered the banking business many years ago as trustee of the Western Savings bank. Later he became vice president and in 1924 president. His devotion to civic affairs is well known. Among other things he was for a time Chairman of the Buffalo Temporary Emergency Relief administration and chairman of the Civil Works administration. He was chairman of the banking and finance committee of the Chamber of Commerce in 1932 when it sponsored the Buffalo Home Mortgage Advisory board. He was the Democratic candidate for mayor in 1929, and his appointment to the emergency relief post was one of the first acts of the late Charles E. Roesch, the successful Republican aspirant. Mr. Diebold is the father of Charles R. Diebold, LLB "35, who is associated with him in law practice. He is a past president of the Erie County Bar association, past president of the Buffalo Athletic Club, a life member of the Buffalo Library association and member of the Buffalo club, Buffalo Canoe club, Cherry Hill Country club and various Masonic organizations. Other officers who will serve with him this year are James E. King, MD '96, vice chairman; Griffith G. Pritchard, DDS '18, recorder; G. Thomas Ganim, BS '24 LLB '27, assistant recorder; Myron S. Short, LLB ■08 and Victor B. Wylegala, LLB '19, members of the executive committee. Observers have felt a growing need for thorough understanding and mutual trust between the Alumni council and the General Alumni association. It was GAA President-elect Allan who underscored this need in a plea to the Alumni council at the annual meeting. Mr. Diebold responded with the appointment of an Alumni council "committee on alumni co-operation" which will work with GAA representatives this year. The committee consists of Judge Harris, chairman; George G. Davidson Jr.. LLB '97; Leon J. Gauchat, DDS '19; Pharmacy Dean A. Bertram Lemon, PhG *13; Herbert A. Smith, MD "07. "Jack" Allan had an impressive undergraduate career, which includes such highlights as football, interfraternity basketball, presidency of the S. A. C, business managership of the freshman handbook and the Bison, chairmanship of the Junior Prom and the Senior ball, chairmanship of Moving Up day. Senior bazaar, presidency of Phi Delta Phi fraternity, treasurership of the Arts junior class and presidency of the Law senior class. But his extra-mural activities have been exciting too. He served as an aerial gunner in the naval air forces operating out of Bordeaux, France, and best remembers one flight with the dramatic combination of a bad storm, a drunken pilot, a TNT-laden plane and a failing gas supply. Today Alumnus Allan holds a junior lieutenant's commission in the Naval reserve. He was the organizer and first president of the Erie County Young Republican club. He has served as a GAA trustee since 1933, and was elected to the exerutive committee in 1936. In addition to practicing law he is secretary to Supreme Court Justice John V. Maloney, LLB '01.

Sponsors of the plan also committed to Alumni Secretary William G. Cook, BS '27, the task of laying the plan before succeeding graduating classes. This year's results are still quite incomplete, but they already show a substantial increase over last year.

A. Hague Re-elected Gordon A. Hague, AC '21, BS '25, EdM '33 was re-elected to the Athletic council in the recent alumni mail ballot. He won by a close margin over Robert E. Rich, BS (Bus) '35, his only competitor. Buffalo alumni figured heavily in news of the University council's annual meeting, held a few days before Commencement. New chairman of the council is James McCormick Mitchell, LLB '97, prominent Buffalo attorney. He succeeds the late A. Glenni Bartholomew, LLB '03, under whom he had served as vice chairman. Alumnus Mitchell had been acting chairman since Mr Bartholomew's death 16 months ago. Mr. Mitchell received a bachelor's degree at Princeton before entering Buf- I. M. MITCHELL, '97 falo. His loyalty to his second Alma Mater has been maniactive fested in many ways, among them service during the 1929 Endowment campaign. He is a director of the Marine Trust company, former director of the Buffalo Chamber of Commerce, a vice president of the New York State Bar association, president of the board of trustees of the First Presbyterian church, former president of the Buffalo club and dean of the Saturn club. Results of the alumni mail ballot on candidates for the council were announced at the meeting. Chemistry Professor Albert P. Sy, PhD '08 and Internist Nelson G. Russell, MD '95 were re-elected while Leon J. Gauchat, DDS '19, practitioner and facultyman, was returned after a year's absence. They will serve four-year terms. " NEXT BULLETIN IN FALL This is the last issue of the Bulletin until October. Under its permit from the U. S. Post Office department, no issues will be published during July, August and September. Next Bulletin will be sent to Buffalo's alumni and friends concurrently with the opening of the 1937-38 academic year. " In addition to the 12 seats controlled by the alumni, the council itself has power of appointment to the other 24. Several of those seats are held most of the time by alumni, thus giving the graduate body more than the minimum representation established by law. Four such appointments were made at the meeting. Chosen for four-year terms were Chairman Mitchell, Library Donor Thomas B. Lockwood, Law '96 and former City Councilman Victor B. Wylegala, LLB '19, who holds bachelor's and master's degrees from Canisius college, while Horace LoGrasso, MD '04, longtime (eight years) superintendent of the J. N. Adam Memorial hospital (tuberculosis) at Perrysburg, N.Y. was picked for a three-year tenure. These and all other current alumni members automatically constitute the Alumni council, to which are referred all council matters relating to the alumni. To these three important committees were appointed these three alumni councilors: General administration, Dr. Russell; finance. Myron S. Short, LLB C8; buildings and grounds, Marshall Clinton, MD '95. Non-alumni news of council proceedings included: Re-election to four-year terms of Mrs. Stephen M. Clement, Frank B. Baird and Jacob F. Schoelikopf Jr.; election of Supreme Court Justice Charles B. Sears to the council vice chairmanship; adoption of a balanced budget for 1937-38, with income and expenditures of $1,139,322.98, an increase of approximately $25,000 over this year's figure; approval of the list of candidates for more than 400 degrees, diplomas and certificates, who will swell the alumni body to the vicinity of 8800. Summer Session Ready More than 150 courses, taught by a staff of 75 members, will be offered in the Summer session which opens July 6. The number is a substantial increase over last year, according to Dean Leslie O. Cummings. Beside those already scheduled, provision has been made to offer others, provided there is sufficient demand. Summer courses represent the following university divisions: College of Arts and Sciences, School of Business Administration, School of Education, curriculum in library science, Division of Nursing and School of Social Work. Registrations are still being accepted. The school ends Aug. 14. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Commencement Season Program Is Full One Each year the Chancellor's office sends Commencement invitations to a selected group of educators, public officials, influential citizens, graduates and other university friends at home and afield. With each invitation goes a printed program of Commencement week activities. This year's program was a good example of the steady increase in such activities. The program actually got under way on Thursday of the week preceding Commencement when the University council met to elect officers, adopt a budget and approve the fist of graduates (see page 1). ARTS ALUMNI On Saturday came the first of several alumni gatheiings. Like the Medical and Dental school alumni, the Arts and Sciences Alumni association has heard the growing demand for alumni education, has answered it with a "post-collegiate institute" which was offered for the first time in 1936. Better attended was this year's session, in which Dr. Oliver P. Lester, BS '24, MA "26, assistant professor of psychology. affirmatively answered the question: "Human Nature—Is It Fixed or Modifiable?" and Dr. Edward W. Sine, assistant professor of English found a similar reply for the query: "Is there an American Literature?" Spirited round tables followed both addresses, which were embellished with an informal luncheon and a period of games. That evening the association held its 17th annual banquet. There were pleasant greetings from Dean Julian Park and Marion A. Shanley. BA "23, vice president of the General Alumni association; the Class of 193"7 was formally inducted into the association; there was an election of officers (see below); Dr. Alexander Schwarcman. research director of Spencer Kellogg & Sons. Inc., was eloquent and stimulating in his main address on "The Philosophy of Modern Science" to which he subsequently added reminiscences of Russia and Poland and of his last flight on the ill-fated Hindenburg, But that which many regarded as the evening's highlight was the presence of the quinquennial reunion classes and the reports of their activities. First came Mary Louise Nice, BA '32, who explained that her appointment 2s class spokesman had come as an abrupt surprise, then delivered a charming, extemporaneous five-year summary. Next came Class Secretary Norma J. Larrison, BA '2~?t whose statistical analysis of her class" physical, mental and financial/" condition "ten years after" showed that thei truest figures can still be funny. Then Irma L. Hayes and Richard T. Morris compared the class phophecy with the facts, to the detriment of Laura O'Day Pellman as a seeress. Finally came Dr. Adelle H. Land, BS '22, MA '23, assistant professor of education, whose humorous use of Gertrude Stein's style emphasized poignant memories of PRESIDENTS - ELECT left. Arts' ].

Clara Marquardt, BA '31 was chosen GAA trustee. Sunday afternoon the graduating seniors of all divisions donned caps and gowns and filed into Edmund Hayes auditorium where they and scores of townsfolk heard Chancellor Samuel P. Capen's baccalaureate address. Striking at those who would engulf universities in the tide of dictatorship, he warned against that weakening of integrity which allows them to become agencies of propaganda and politics. Next day was fair, which pleased Dr. Augustus H. Shearer, because the alumni of his library science curriculum were guests at his out-of-doors reception on the creekbank of his summer home in South Wales. BUSINESS ADDERS That evening the Business Administration Alumni association held its fifth annual meeting inthj- TJnivfiTiily rlnli_nnnrrllnr Cape«*3naDean Ralph C.

The Pharmacy Alumni association will not hold its annual meeting until next October, when it will join in the festivities of Pharmacy Open House week. But Pharmacy school seniors had their place in the sun on Tuesday when the new Buffalo Academy of Pharmacy held a reception in their honor in the Fairfax hotel. Later that day Chancellor and Mrs. Capen received councilors, seniors, alumni and faculty members at the Twentieth Century club. Next day was Commencement Wednesday, when a record class of 436 received degrees and diplomas at the 91st annual graduation ceremony in Elmwood Music hall. Speaker was young Dr. William A. Eddy, president of Hobart and William Smith colleges. ALUMNI IN EDUCATION That afternoon the Alumni in Education held a reception for the new graduates in Norton hall, and elected the following officers: President, Vincent A. Carberry, BS '21, EdM '33 who is principal of Buffalo's Public School 19; vice president, Irma Gertrude Thiel, EdM '35; secretary-treasurer, C. Esther Hepinstall, EdM '35. Harry I. Good, BS (Bus) '27, MA '31 was returned to the General Alumni association board of trustees for three more years. Mr. Carberry succeeds Helen R. Cornell, EdM '34. Same night the Class of 1907, School of Law held its 3Cth anniversary reunion, with Permanent President Richmond D. Moot of Schenectady presiding over a speechless program. More elaborate was the reunion program of the Law Class of 1912 a few weeks ago. It included after dinner speeches by former Dean Carlos C. Alden, new Dean Francis M. Shea and Law Professor Philip Halpern, LLB '23. Scheduled for June 22 in Erie County hall was a re-organization meeting of the Law Alumni association, which has been inactive for several years. Also on the month's calendar were annual meetings of the Alumni council and the GAA trustees' board for induction of new members and election of officers for 1937-38. Memorial Plaque Given Not generally known about outside the Pharmacy school is the existence of the complete, up-to-date, licensed Willis G. Gregory pharmacy, used as a laboratory by students in the division. A few days before graduation the Class of 1937 presented a plaque in memory of the pharmacy's founder, to be mounted on its wall. �3 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN Alumni News Brevities MD—J.

Valentine, president of the University of Rochester, as the midyear convocation speaker. Another neighboring college president will receive his formal introduction to Buffalo's town and gown this coming June 9 ; when Dr. William Alfred Eddy, of Hobart and William Smith colleges, makes the Commencement address. Many are the ties which bind Hobart and Buffalo. More than one individual is an alumnus of both institutions. Several Buffalo facultymen have Hobart degrees. Chancellor Samuel P. Capen received an honorary LHD there in 1925. Athletic, forensic and other kinds of intercollegiate rivalry have been most cordial for many student generations, unmarred by such one-sided contests as that last season when the Statesmen handed the Bulls a 52-2 defeat on the home gridiron. So President Eddy, himself a Princetonian with honorary LLD's from St. Lawrence and Colgate, will find himself among friends when he rises to addrtss some 400 graduates in Elmwood Music hall. 400 Will Be Graduated in June 9 Ceremonial The 91st Commencement closes a year in which student spirit has run high. In matters curricular and extra-curricular there has been another of those periodic upsurges of enthusiasm. Typical was the activity of Senior week, which was an avowed success despite a rainy beginning. Monday was Rose day, when seniors in caps and gowns purveyed flowers to faculty and students until the campus bloomed in a pre-season pink. Tuesday was Senior Luncheon day, when the somberly clad upperdassmen foregathered to hear Alumni Secretary William G. Cook on alumni organization and the Senior Memorial fund. Enthusiastically they endorsed the plan as founded by the Class of 1936, and immediately set about canvassing their membership for pledges of $1 a year for five years following graduation. Wednesday—Senior Convocation day saw spokesmen for the Class of 1937 in furious debate with facultymen on the comparative merits of both groups. The student audience, by popular acclaim, awarded the decision to the student team. The day was otherwise eventful because of exciting, closely watched elections of underclass officers, Norton union leaders, and a May queen to preside on Moving-Up day. Thursday the sun showed itself for the first time all week, and the Ivy day ceremony went off without a hitch. Following the academic procession from Crosby hall to Edmund Hayes hall, the senior class presidents co-operated in planting the ivy; the silver spade was handed on to the junior class representative, the Ivy oration delivered, the administration s response made. Followed the annual faculty reception and tea for seniors. Friday was Acquaintance day. Seniors joined other students and the faculty in welcoming high school pupils invited for a tour of the university and survey of its offerings. In their honor the student body held its annual Acquaintance day dance that — evening. Saturday was Moving Up day, and its program was one of the fullest in years. The weatherman broke a precedent, too, wlien he ordered a w<±iw aaiu sunny day. From Buffalo's Lower Terrace on the stroke of 10 o'clock the parade moved up Main street past throngs of Saturday shoppers and on out to the campus. Lunch followed, then the moving up ceremonies with presentation of shingles, cups, trophies, letters and other awards. The afternoon developed into something approaching a three-ring circus, with a varsity tennis match (Rochester 7, Buffalo 1) a golf match (Rochester 3V2 Buffalo 2i/ 2) a full-length inter-school football game (Business Adders 19, Arts 0), a fashion show with 20 pretty co-eds as models, and a tea dance. That evening Bison Head fraternity sponsored the annual Moving-Up day dance. Still to be hurdled were final examinations, some written, some oral, some comprehensive, before 1500 freshmen, sophomores and juniors can really move up, while nearly half a hundred seniors prepare to move out and join 8500 other alumni. , WEATHERMAN'S WHIMSY For the first time in many years, good weather prevailed for Senior wee\ outdoor events.

V., area has been included for the past two years in counting up alumni branch clubs, it was not until a fortnight ago that formal organization and election of officers took place. At a dinner in the Elmira City club where Chancellor Samuel P. Capen and Alumni Secretary William G. Cook, BS "27, were speakers, alumni from an area bounded by Watkins Glen, Painted Post, Waverly, and the Pennsylvania border, adopted a constitution and chose officers for the coming year. rently headed by lawyers. In Utica, N. Y. one evening, a third became a club president. He is Salvador J. Capecelatro, LLB 18, Utica practitioner, who was chosen chief executive of the newly organized Central New York Alumni club. In the intimate, friendly atmosphere of the Yahnundasis Golf club alumni sang Buffalo songs, viewed Buffalo movies, discussed Buffalo problems, and pledged themselves to assist on Buffalo's program. If alumni judge their Alma Mater by what the outside world thinks of it, Central New Yorkers should be satisßed. Unstinting praise came from Dr. George B. Cutten, president of Colgate university, and Supreme Court Justice William F. Dowling, a trustee of Hamilton college, who were on the program. Speakers from campus were Chancellor Capen and Secretary Cook. Other officers for 1937-38 are Frank H. Valone, MD '19, Rome, first vice president ; Clarence R. Bennison, DDS '24, Frankfort, second vice president; George F. Mills, MD '99, Oneida, third vice president; James E. Hole, PhG '26, Utica, secretary; George C. Bower, MD "22, Marcy, ' treasurer.

In tribute to his rank as senior medical practitioner of the area, the club created an honorary presidency and awarded it to Laßue R. Colegrove, MD '87, of Elmira, who had acted as toastmaster. Modestly declining all offices, Ross G. Loop, MD '97, could not escape congratulations for the success of the dinner, of which he was general chairman. To their next meeting the charter members plan to invite alumni of the Ithaca area, who have no club of their own. Until late last month, Rochester and only alumni clubs cur- Syracuse were the Warmly received by an Olean audience was the Men's Glee club on a recent concert trip there. Doubly pleasant was its visit because of the welcome given by leaders of the Allegheny Region Alumni club, of which Arthur L. Runals, MD '11, is president.

Schultz, BA '33, MA '35, Loomis fellow at Yale. It became a miniature reunion when these three faculty delegates arrived on the scene: Department Chief Edward J. Moore, Prof. L. Grant Hector and Asst. Prof. Richard N. Jones. Final touch was given by the appearance of Robert D. Potter, BS '27, assistant to the director of Science Service. Dr. Hector, a specialist in radio, also attended the convention of the Union Radio Societe Internationale. Another Lockwood Gift Still adding to his priceless gift of rare books housed in the Lockwood Memorial library, Benefactor Thomas B. Lockwood, law '96 has presented two unusual volumes within the past month. One is from the limited edition of newly discovered papers of James Boswell. The library already owns the original 18-volume set of Boswell papers presented by Mr. Lockwood. The second is so unusual that Librarian Charles D. Abbott doesn't know what to do with it, according to reports. It is a sample book of 19th century Scotch plaids.

There will be 12 continuous hours of activity, starting with registration at 10:30 A. M. First lecture goes on at 11 o'clock, when Dr. Olive P. Lester, BS '24, MA '26. assistant professor of psychology, speaks on "Human Nature: Fixed or Modifiable." A round table will follow. An informal luncheon is slated for 12:30 P. M. At 2 o'clock, Dr. Edward W. Sine, assistant professor of English, and one of the college's original faculty members, will discuss the question: "Is There an American Literature?" His address, too, will be followed by a round table. To fill the gap from 3 o'clock until dinner, Norton hall's amusement facilities will be open to all registered alumni, and some interesting tournament announcements arc promised by the committee. Climax of the day will be the 17th annual banquet, scheduled for 7 P. M., in Norton hall. Speaker of the evening is Dr. Alexander Schwarcman, world traveler and research director of Spencer Kellogg & Sons, Inc., who will speak on "Current European Affairs." Chancellor Samuel P. Capen and Dean Julian Park will speak briefly, and President Everett H. Flinchbaugh, BS "29, will be in the chair for the election of officers for 1937-38.

MEDICINE Every medical man has an opportunity to attend clinics sponsored by his national, state, county and local professional society and post-graduate courses are available for the asking in most medical schools. Despite all such competition, the Medical Alumni association's annual clinical day has seen a steady increase in attendance since its inception three years ago. Last month the association held its third annual clinical day and 62nd annual meeting in Buffalo's Hotel Statler. Attendance: 700. Seven distinguished specialists were on the program. There were Hugh C. Cabot, chief of the section of urologic surgery at the Mayo clinic; Richard H.

Actually Buffalo's Evening session has outlived that designation. Many of its courses are given in the daytime. Its scholastic program is co-ordinated, some alumni are Evening session products, and a surprisingly large proportion of its students are now working for graduate degrees. To clarify its status and at the same time honor Buffalo's first chancellor,the name of this thriving division (present en- rollment 2700) was changed this month to Millard Fillmore college. "The term 'Evening session' is no longer descriptive of the work now being done by its students" said ChancellorSamuel P. Capen in announcing the change. "It is only right that a division which has risen to the rank of a college in fact should be recognized as a college in name. Once the new name is established,it will no longer be necessary, for example, for anyone to explain that the classes at Townsend hall really constitute the downtown college of the university." The new name was suggested by- Evening SessionDean Lewis A. Froman,who A New Link in Dance of Death History The Dance of Death is familiar to students of art and literature as a macabre motif which found its full expression during the Middle Ages. Allegorical in its treatment, it usually depicted death in the form of a skeleton leading good and bad folk to the grave. An interesting link in the historical development of this motif has just been published by Dr. Leonard P. Kurtz, assistant professor of Romance languages. It is a hitherto unpublished French manuscript written about 1470, which he edited for the Institute of French Studies. The work is a poem in medieval French, entitled he Mors de la Pome (The Bite of the Apple) describing the fall of man in the Garden of Eden and the subsequent spread of death throughout the world. By modern standards the 30 illustrative miniatures are crude, but they are apt, frank, replete with story-telling power. One of the most horrendous depicts a scene in hell, where demons are throwing souls into a furnace, which two unpleasant individuals keep hot by gleeful attention to the bellows (see cut). In an earlier volume, The Dance of Death and the Macabre Spirit in European Dr. Literature, Curtzgave a thordescription ug h o the formal proession i n which )c;ith appears in a pecially c HELL Eve's appetite caused things for devils' hands to do staged or dance. he Bite of the pple, he points ut, is more rea istic Each viem is taken by )eath in the comany of his assoiates in life. ften Death trikes at an inn, a house,or out< oors, but in all ases, when the mcividual is engaged his daily puruits. vent will now be known as dean of Millard Fillmore college. Since its founding in 1923, one year after Dr. Capen assumed his post as head of the university, Millard Fillmore college has become a vital part of the city's life. More than 16,000 students have been enrolled in its classes ,and today its registration figure is larger than that of the other 12 divisions of the university combined. Last fall, in anticipation of the change of status, Evening session work was reorganized under seven new divisions in (1) education,(2) social work, (3) business administration,(4) social science,(5) natural science and engineering, (6) English language and literature, journalism and bibliography and (7) foreign language. So far approximately 380 students have earned degrees, certificatesand diplomas throughEvening session work. Of the 405 persons who were graduated last year, 61 had completed over half their work in the downtown division. Home Concert Pleases That Wallace A. VanLier is not only a musician but a showman was clearly demonstrated at the 16th annual Home concert and dance of the combined musical clubs one night this month in Norton hall. Though he is an organist in a leading buffalo church,a performer on manyband and orchestra instruments,a teacher of music and music appreciation, he refused to be fettered by his familiarity with the old masters when he stepped into his role as director of the glee clubs. The townspeople and university folk who nearly jampacked the auditorium expected a collegiate program,and they got it. It was the first time in manya year that the university has had a band of its own, good enough to play in a concert. It was the first time in the memoryof many that the traditional dignity of a choral program was relieved by campus capers, as when the Men's octet donned black robes, sang a lugubriously distorted tale about Romeo and Juliet. It was the first time in history that the concert was followed by not one dance,but two, one held in a formal ballroom setting, the other in the swank cabaret atmosphere of the Club Norton. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Where Are They Now? Month by month the list of lost alumni is whittled down by friends and acquaintances who read this column. Not so long ago,the total stood at well over 1,000.

Though they embrace a wide rangeof subjects, provision has been made to include still others if there is sufficientdemand for them. Two of the new courses, "Play Production" and "Elementary Survey of Modern Physics," are being offered for the first time. Play production is a laboratory course with Drama CoachStanley D. Travis, in charge. It is especially designed to meet the needs of high school dramatic directors and English teachers, while the new physics course is for high school science teachers and laymen who wish to follow the experimental achievements of modern science and their bearing on civilization. Augmenting its staff with teachers from outside the walls of the university, the session this yearwill bring in SamuelEngle The Faculty on Review castle,Del., and William T. Hutchinson, professor of history at the L Tniversity of ARTS AND SCIENCES To Syracuse in mid-April went Dr. HELEN DWIGHT REID, associate professorof history and government, to address the International Relations club of Colgate and Syracuse universities, and thence to Philadelphia as the university's official delegate to the annual meeting of the American Academy of Political Science. Burr, superintendent of schools in New- Chicago, as newcomers. The Summer session stresses personal contact with instructors. Every effort is made to include all phases of campus life in its program. Thus all students are expected to profit from recreational and social activities,assembly programs,informal contact with their fellows in Norton union, as well as from classroom instruction. Coordinators of all these activities are the trained personnel workers who comprise the Committeeon Advisement. A new feature introduced by the 1936 session was organization of the Co-operative Youth groups. Youngsters of high school agewere offeredcampus facilities in return for assistance in demonstration classes and social and recreational activities. This year they will also contribute to development of a choral work programand to the laboratory course in play production. Alumni News Brevities '92 LLB—Fred M.

Crofts published a statement showing that all but 14 per cent of the money pledged to the university's 1929 Endowment fund had been paid in (Bulletin, March). . How do alumni compare with non-alumni in the fulfillment of their promises to endow their Alma Mater ? When the campaign ended in October, 1929, a total of $5,428,890.70 had been promised. Of that amount, the alumni had put themselves down for $284,849.01. This left $5,144,041.69 pledged by non-alumni friendsof the university. Today the payments by non-alumni stand at $4,49.6_868.69, or 87.4 per cent of their promised total. Alumni payments to date amount to $159,484.01, or 55.9 per cent of the total pledged by them. The record by schools and divisions shows that library science alumni have made the best record to date. They have paid 93-5 per cent of their pledges. Only one pledge is now outstanding. Its payment would make a 100 per cent record. Arts and sciences alumni are second best with 76.8 per cent paid. Analytical chemistry graduates are in third place with 66.9 per cent. Poorest record of payments is that of the pharmacy alumni who have reached but 45.2 per cent of their goal. Dentistry and law are both below the averagepercentage for the entire alumni group. It thus becomes clear that the non-alumni givers, who have paid all but 12 per cent of their pledges, have held up the total percentage for all pledgors to the 86 per cent figure reported by Mr. Crofts. The analysis of pledge payments follows: - Unpaid Pledged Division 460.00 S 30.00 Lib. Sc. S 9,409.50 1,695.00 96",305.00 Am An. Ch. Med. Educ. 501.00 419.00 Bus. Ad. Dent.

There are the rebellious child, the frightened woman, the unco-operative man. Like the practice of dentistry, the 37th annual meeting of the Dental Alumni association, held last month in Buffalo's Hotel Statler, was a study in personalities. Of the 579 present at the three-day session, some were important, some less so, all were interested and impressed with one of the organization's most successful enterprises. Personality No. 1 was Alfred E. Mim- (1910) president of the association,onethe Buffalo auxiliary chapAILINGER, '25 Sigma Delta ter. Delta fraternity, onetime (1920) president of the Eighth District Dental society, longtime consultant on the Dental school faculty, and fatherof Edward P. Mimmack,'21 and Dorothy Mimmack Gibson, '21. Modern, vigorous, loved by his colleagues, to him the entire meeting was dedicated. Personality No. 2 was Frank X. Woodworth, '19, who as president of the association was responsible for the efficiency with which large and small details of the ambitious program were carried out. Personality No. 3 was James J. Ailinger, '25, onetime captain of varsity football and basketball,who in three years rose through the chairs of the association to become its president for 1937-38. On him will rest the burden of next year's meeting. His board of officersconsists of SamuelA. Gibson, '21, vice president; Allison S. Roberts, '19, secretary and Wesley M. Backus,'04, who was re-elected to his 36th term as master of treasurer. Personalities No. 4 through 9 were the guest speakers from out of town, including five dental specialists and Dentist John Bain (Jock) Sutherland,coach of the Pitt Panthers whose nationally publicized difficulties with the Pittsburgh athletic authorities broke justbeforethe meeting. Then there were the less spectacular personalities —facultymen in charge of clinics; chairmen of reunions for the "five-year" classes from 1897 down; university officials who welcomed and mingled with the visitors; individuals who put on a dentists' Another Foster Gift April 17 Is Date Set On Oct. 27, 1922, was opened Foster hall, first permanent building on the university campus, the gift of Orrin E. Foster (Foster-Milburn Co., manufacturing chemists) and his family. Mr. Foster has since died,but his widow has again shown her friendship for the university by presentation of a gift to establish and endow a permanent lecture foundation in chemistry and allied sciences. To be known as the Orrin E. Foster Lecture fund, it was pledged by Mrs. Foster in the 1929 Endowment ompaign. Sinceincome from the gift is now available, plans have been completed to inaugurate the foundationat once with a series of public lectures beginning this month.

Two more classmates have joined the plan, bringing the total pledge to the university up to $515. They are Hermon E. Eisler. and Nancy Gilbert, both graduates of the College of Arts and Sciences.

Party Is Praised It was a some said. gay party—one of the gayest, Possibility that the first and purely experimental Folies d'Alumni may become a regular University day institution is being voiced by General Alumni association officials as a result of the favorablecomments of the 200-odd guests at last month's 22nd anniversary celebration. Norton hall's lofty, dignified ballroom was scarcely recognizable when the decorations committee got through with it. At mid-height a deep blue cellophane sky stretched from wall to wall. Big clusters of variegated balloons dangled tantalizingly. White tablecloths gleamed in the candlelight, while the orchestra,onstage, basked in a lavender glow. Informal, intimate, generally reminiscent of an exclusive night club, the Folies d'Alumni included a chicken a la king supper and a five-actfloor show. There was even a "wine list" bearing the names of various soft-drinks. Though only 100 couples could be accommodated, no little effort was necessary. General chairman of the enterprise was President Robert I. Millonzi, BA '32, LLB '35. Committeechairmen were Lloyd A. Miller, BS (Bus) '32, entertainment;Marion A.

More Nurses Admitted Last April the university officially created Division of Nursing, to co-operate with the Buffalo City hospital on offerings leading to the degree of bachelor of science in a nursing (Bulletin, May, 1936). Last month the Deaconess hospital became the second in the city to offer college training to its nurses. In co-operation with the Medical school,they will study accredited Regents' subjects along with nurse training, which will be applied on bachelor's degrees or registered nurse certificates. Forty-five student nurses were in the first group admitted. "29- WANTED A copy of the 1848-1849 "Annual Announcement of the Medical Department of the University of Buffalo."

Most of those in hope so. �ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN 3 Sport Cycle Swings to Football Again FOOTBALL Old Man Sunneared his vernal equinox, Head Football CoachJim Peelle this month vas unpacking moleskins,buying helmets,devising new plays in anticipation of that big seasonal event—spring practice. From now until just beforefinal examinations, the varsitymen, augmented by last season's freshmansquad, will go through conditioning exercises,training in fundamentals, and intensive study of knotty maneuvers of the modified Notre Dame type. Climax will be a full-length game between two picked teams on Moving Up day, May 1. Well aware of the dangers of pre-season prediction, Skipper Peelle's forecastfor next Fall is a conservative one. "I believe we'll do as well as last year," is his sole comment. Last year the Bulls won five games out of eight starts, to the delight of most Blue and White fans who had not seen such a story in years. Two newcomers are on the schedule.

Definite, however,was the appointment of Wallace A. VanLier as tennis coach,to succeed Dr. Riegel, who is professor of insurance and director of the university's Bureau of Business and SocialResearch. VanLier, a graduate of the University of Rochester in 1925, came to Buffalo last Fall as professor of music and director of the Glee clubs. His knowledge of sharps and flats is matched by his skill at serves, volleys and backhands. This he has proved by winning the championship of the exclusive Lake Placid club and numerous trophies in New York state and California tournaments. He already has an unofficialranking among the first ten stars in the Buffalo area. Dr. Riegel resigned because of the press of his bureau's work, but he will continue as an advisor to Coach VanLier. Robert WRESTLING Buffalo athletic authorities do not make a differentiation between "major" and "minor" sports. What are minor sports at other institutions are spoken of here simply as "sports other than football and basketball." Of these,wrestling has caught the popular fancy in recent years, though the last two seasons have not seen even average results. The current schedule ended with two wins out of six tries.

Needed—More Pharmics Contrary to the general impression, pharis not a crowded profession—at least macy it is not crowded in Western New York, according to Dean A. Bertram Lemon, PhG '13 of the Schoolof Pharmacy. "As far as we know, all the members of our last year's class in pharmacy are now gainfully employed," Dean Lemon says. ■'And this condition is nothing new to us, because even in the worst years of the depression over 90 per cent of our graduate pharmacists found employment within three months' time after graduation. "At present I am unable to recommend enough competent licensed pharmacists to meet the demand. During the last several weeks,for example, I have had an average of two requests a week for competent pharmacists. But I had nobody I could recom- mend. "In the 20 counties west of Onondaga which we consider our territory, there are approximately 1000 drug stores. In the state of New York there are 14,300 pharmacists and 7100 pharmacies, which would make it appear that there is an average of two pharmacists to each pharmacy. Hence, in this Western New York territory, there should be about 2000 pharmacists county, employed. ■'The National Association of Boards of Pharmacy in a recent statistical report on conditions throughout the country states that it appears to be safe (by safe we mean that we would not be overcrowding the field) if from 50 to 60 new pharmacists were registered annually per thousand stores. "In one of the conservative states of the Union, namely New Jersey, they place the figure at 35 per thousand stores. "During the last four years an average of 30 pharmacists have been graduated from the University of Buffalo. Plainly this is not enough to serve the public."

Starstwinkle out of a sky of midnight blue. Couples sway in gentle rhythm. The music ends and there is a ripple of applause. Then a shaft of white light picks out the master of ceremonies. "Ladies and gentlemen ..." The first annual Folies d"Alumni is under way. Departing radically from its customary banquet and speaking program,the General AJumni association will celebrate its 22nd birthday with a campus cabaret on University day, Feb. 22. Into the mails a fortnight ago went more than 4300 slingers— one for everyalumnus in Buffalo—announcing that Norton hall will be turned into a night club for one evening. There will be dancing, supper and a gala floor show. Committeesare sparing neither effort nor expense to give it every aspect of swank and sophistication. Generalchairman of the Folies d'Alumni is Robert I. MHlonzi, BA '32, LLB P35,who ran two memorable Junior Proms as an undergraduate, and carries in his dossier additional experience gained as president and business managerof Blue Masquers, chairman of the student convocation corncommittee,managerof varsity football and president of Norton union. Chairmanof music and entertainment is Lloyd A. Miller, BS (Bus) '32. Headliners of the floor show are Janie Lyman and Bud Driscoll, artful young couple whose dancing has won plaudits m New York; who have performed in Buffalo's Statler hotel, and who have played five return engagements at the Hollywood, one of the Buffalo area's more popular rendezvous. Another couple on the five-actprogram is a two-piano team— Vie Dana and Harinvariold Feldman,whose purple passages ably evoke demands for more and more. Music for dancing will be provided by Cy Wills and His Collegians. To effect the transformationfrom club house to night club, Marion A. Shanley, BA '23 and her decoration committee have been working diligently with Norton hall authorities, while Mrs. Winifred Rowley Hill, BA '24, promises a supper menu which will appeal to the most jaded taste. Arthur I. Goldberg, BA '31, heads the committee on printing and publicity, which already has seen to it that every alumnus in Buffalo and vicinity knows about one of the gayest affairs in GAA history. Biggest problem for ChesterG. Schoenborn, BS (Bus) '33, (reservations) and John S. Allan, BA '26, LLB '30 (tickets) is how to prevent standing-room-only-complications. Because the Folies d'AJumni can accomodate only a few more than 100 couples, tickets have been apportioned amongthe divisions according to their size, and advance reservations are being insisted upon. When 100 $3 tickets have been disposed of, the sale will cease. To make for co-ordination and to prevent duplication, reservations should be placed through the Alumni office in Norton hall. The telephone number is University 9300. Norton hall now has generous parking facilities, which, like its checkroom service, are free.

The data presented constitute a fair enough sampling to allow some weight to be placed on the results obtained here,and it must be admitted that the low ranks of these activities (usually sixth or below) surprised the writer. "The authors of studies presented during the last few years,who show athletes as the recipients of mediocre ratings in scholarship and attribute the low marks to participation in athletics, might well put less weight on the marks and consider the ability of the athletic group," according to Dr. Smith."The ability of the athletes places them next to the foot in the high-school ranking and barely above the center in the university ranking."

An institution which is granted a charter by Phi Beta Kappa may be said to have arrived, because Phi Beta Kappa is virtually the ne plus ultra of scholarship. Received at the university a few weeks ago from the senate of Phi Beta Kappa was an invitation to apply for a charter for a Buffalo chapter. Buffalo was one of eight colleges and universities so honored. Applications of the institutions which respond will be brought before the meeting of the 19th triennial council in Atlanta, Ga., next September. LawMenHoldReunions The Law Alumni association, potentially one of the university's strongest graduate groups, has for several years remained quiescent. Strong, however, are the bonds which tie many classmates together, and which number prominent men among their members. The class of 1886 which held its 40th anniversary banquet in the Buffalo Athletic club has contributed judges, district attorneys and city councilmen, many of whom came back to hear Martin Clark, sole surviving professor of the class, deliver the speech of the evening. Chief speaker at the reunion of the class of 1910 was Member Frank A. McKowne of New York, president of Hotels Statler, Inc. Class president is Howard G. E. Smith, New York state Civil service commissioner. Theclass numbered 38 at graduation. Twenty-nine survive. Twenty-one of those 29 were at the reunion in Buffalo's Hotel Statler. Junior Prom Date Set That annual social event in which most students and not a few alumni are interested, the Junior Prom, will take place in Buffalo's Hotel Statler on Friday, Feb. 12, it is announced. The committee in charge is headed by Law Student Robert C. Sanborn, and includes the following committee chairmen: Charles Roesch, advertising; Charles Calder, tickets; Willard Genrich, orchestra; Dorothy Sharpe, patrons; Talman Van Arsdale, favors; Theodora Jacobs, door; Richard Pixley, decorations. Florence McClure is secretary, and Edward F. Mimmack, DDS '21, faculty adviser. January, 1937 Dental Alumni Expect Big Attendance Jock Sutherlandof the famous Pittsburgh Panthers will headline the entertainment program arranged for the Greater Buffalo Spring Dental meeting to be held Feb. 24-26 in Hotel Statler under auspices of the Dental Alumni association. It will be the association's 37th annual conclave. All members of the profession are invited. Sutherland's story will include a description of the inside dope on the Rose Bowl game in which the Panthers upset the Washington Huskies 21-0 on New Year's tional program conducted by nationally prominent professional men. the educa- This year's list of speakers includes John Oppie McCall, DDS "04, director of the Guggenheim Dental clinic, New York city; Dr. William H. G. Logan, dean of Loyola universtiy's Chicago College of Dentai Surgery; Dr. Edward J. Ryan, chairman of the dental advisory committee, Chicago Relief administration, and Dr. Walter C. McBride, director of the children's department, University of Detroit Dental school. President Frank X. Woodworth, DDS '19, tops a huge staff of associates working to make the meeting the biggest and best ever. Success is indicated by the record number of reservations already received. A.B.A. Approval Comes Interne Plan Changed Approval by the American Medical association is to a medical school what approval Long recognized as one of the country's most progressive teaching hospitals, the Buffalo City hospital, in conjunction with the Medical school, has taken another step which has received the approbation of the American Medical association's council on medical education and hospitals. A new program, mapped by Hospital Superintendent Walter S. Goodale, MD '03, and Dean Edward W. Koch, and effective this July, aims at an uplifting of the entire student medical staff at the hospital through an increase in scholastic standards and the granting of new recognition of post graduate work performed. It provides interne certificates for candidates who have served 12 months or more on a rotating service; residency certificates for candidates who have served three years in a special department, and master of science in medicine degrees for those who have served four years or more in pursuit of a specified major study. For the last eight years a three-year plan of house medical staff instruction has been in operation. Present personnel will proceed under that arrangement, but it is contemplated that by 1929 the new system will be completely in effect. Said Alumnus Goodale in announcing the plan: "We hold that a hospital set up and operated on a sound educational basis is more apt to attract high class candidates for staff appointments, all of which is bound to mean better service for the patient." day. Class reunions, exhibits, a dinner dance, luncheons and other entertainment features are scheduled, in addition to by the American Bar association is to a school of law. Long coveted by the university for its Law school was this final stamp of endorsement, which had been qualified for in every way but one: employment of sufficient fulltime faculty members. One of the first moves made following appointment of Francis M. Shea as dean of the school last year was a re-organization to correct this technical defect. Result: announcement by the American Bar association a fortnight ago that Buffalo had been placed on the approved list. The new approval is provisional, in accordance with the association's practice. Final approval is reserved in all cases until an inspection to determine that association standards are being maintained. This inspection must be made within a two-year period. All University of Buffalo professional schools now possess highest ranking in their fields. Page Mark Twain Last month's Bulletin carried announcement of the death of Robert J. Maichle, MD '08, of Dansville, following notice by the United States Post Office. Word has since been received that Dr. Maichle is very much alive. �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 2 (Note: Some matters previously reported in the Bulletin are omitted from this extract.) To the Council of the University of Buffalo: I have the honor to submit the report of the chancellor for the academic year 1935-36. Enrollment and University Income The total enrollment for the year under review was 4425. the largest in the university's history. The increase throughout the later years of the depression period has been brought about by increases in the Evening session and in the Summer session, chiefly the former. The Evening session again registered a gain of over 10 per cent, the Summer session, in which a smaller number of students is involved, a gain of 17 per cent. It is important to remember that the fee income per student is much smaller in these two divisions than in the regular sessions. Consequently, a 7 per cent gain in the total enrollment of the university, represented entirely by registrants in the Evening and Summer sessions, adds only a relatively small amount to the university's income. The income received from tuition fees during the year under review was only $12,682.69 greater than in the preceding year. It did not equal the fee income of the years 1931-32 and 1932-33. The Report of the Treasurer published herewith shows that the university finished the fiscal year 1935-36 with a surplus of $16,713.39 in the general operating account. This is smaller by nearly $10,000 than the surplus of the preceding year. Moreover, the council was obliged to draw on approximately $12,000 of it at once in order to balance the budget for the year 1936-37. The implications of the facts just cited are clear. The university has two principal sources of income, fees paid by students and income from endowment. Approximately four-fifths of the university's income is received from fees. Unless there are larger additions to the endowment funds or unless enrollment in the regular sessions increases substantially, expensive new projects or costly improvements of the university's present educational program are out of the question. Administrative Changes This university has a peculiar administrative tradition, which is still strong. To a greater extent than any other institution that 1 know of this has been a deans' university. Until very recently the office of chancellor was largely honorary. For the first three-quarters of a century of the university's life the educational leaders were the deans. To them properly belongs a major share of the credit for the reputation their respective schools have gained among the institutions of the land. The deans of two of the oldest professional schools, the Schools of Pharmacy and of Law, retired from their administrative posts at the close of the year under review. The State of the University Condensed from the Chancellor's Report Dr. Willis G. Gregory has been associated with the School of Pharmacy from its establishment 50 years ago. For 46 years he directed it as dean. The School of Pharmacy is essentially his creation. It is everywhere recognized as such. Dr. Carlos C. Alden came to the School of Law as its dean 13 years after its incorporation in the university. He directed it for 32 years. The Law school is the visible embodiment of his rare ability and his high concept of training for one of the most exacting of the learned professions. The university is especially fortunate in the fact that both Dr. Gregory and Dr. Alden. although relinquishing their deanships, will continue to serve their respective schools as professors. By election of the alumni in June, 1936 Dr. Gregory, himself a graduate of the Medical school in the class of 1882, also becomes a member of the Council of the University. In the spring of 1936 it was felt that the time had come to unify still further the administration of medical, dental and nursing instruction. The deanships of the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry were combined; and a new Division of Nursing was set up as a part of the Medical school. The determination to select a single head for the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry was in line with the developments in dental education brought about here under the direction of the late Dean Daniel H. Squire. His plan for the reform of dental education sought to establish a more intimate relationship between dentistry and medi- With the passage of the years the community of work and interest between the two schools and their student bodies has become more pronounced. Their administrative unificationwas the natural next step. Indeed, it was on the recommendation of the faculty of the Dental school that the council voted to put the two schools under the administrative direction of a single dean. As chief assistant to the dean, charged with the direction of the daily routine of the Dental school, the council appointed Dr. Russell W. Groh, professor of operative dentistry, to the newly created position of associate dean of the School of cine. Dentistry. Central University Services Bureau of Personnel Research The Bureau of Personnel Research is both a service and a research agency. The testing program which it administers is both extensive and discriminating. Few colleges have as accurate and comprehensive information with regard to the quality, the aptitudes and the achievements of their student bodies. Moreover, through frequent publication of the results of its studies, the bureau has stimulated similar studies elsewhere. The record of the bureau in placing graduates in positions appropriate to their desires and capacities has been exceptionally successful. Before the end of the summer of 1936 the bureau was able to report that most of the graduates of this year were satisfactorily employed or had definite openings. Firms have seemed eager that the bureau should recommend applicants for existing vacancies. The second and major responsibility of the bureau is research in the personnel held. Most important of the current investigations with which the bureau is associated is the study of articulation of high school and college which has been supported by a five-year grant from the General Education board. The purpose was to identify while they were still in high school students of extraordinary ability who planned later to attend the university, to give them special opportunities to work in the fields of their interest, and to enable them to finish school and college in less than the normal number of years, if they so desired. The university furnished guidance and testing service for these special groups of students in the high schools and prepared for their use syllabi covering the content of college courses which they sought to anticipate. It devised anticipatory examinations covering the work of certain courses normally studied in the first year of college which are taken by the more brilliant students before they enter college. If a student succeeds in passing an anticipatory examination he is given credit for the course on the college level. This undertaking furnishes an exceedingly useful guide for the further development of the university's own relations with superior high school and college students, and cannot fail to be suggestive to other institutions. In addition to the published results of the studies, there is the experiment itself; an experiment which has evidently proved of great profit to scores of brilliant young people who have availed themselves of the opportunities for directed individual study which the university has been able to offer them. Judged by all the measures we have been able to apply, the experiment has been a success. Although the General Education board's generous grant has now expired the university proposes to continue, on a much reduced scale, to furnish the advisory service to high school teachers and superior high school students. Bureau of Business and Social Research During the year the Bureau of Business and Social Research has continued the regular publication of the Statistical Survey, supplying statistical measures of the business activity of the Buffalo district. AH important indices developed by the bureau �ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN have been continued and a few new ones added. The value of this service is attested by frequent quotations in the financial columns of the daily press, by unsolicited letters from users of the service, and by a gain of 18 per cent in the number of subscribers to the bureau's publications. In addition to the regular issues of the Survey eight special studies were published during the year. The bureau's appropriations which were drastically reduced several years ago, have not been restored. Except for student help furnished by the NYA it would have been impossible for the bureau to produce the volume of material with which it now stands credited. Needs of the University The greatest need of the university is for additions to its general endowment funds. To be most useful, gifts for this purpose should be either unrestricted or should take the form of special endowments for professorial chairs. The balanced budgets of the last four years were secured by drastic reductions of the salaries of the teaching and clerical staffs. The scale of salaries for both types of positions was always too low. The cuts have lowered it to a point where the university is constantly in danger of losing its most valuable people and of being unable to replace them. It is doubtful whether any probable increase in fee income would put the university in a position to make full restoration, since overhead expenses have increased with the recent additions to the university's plant. An addition of at least $2,000,000 to its unrestricted endowment, or to the endowment of professorships, is needed now. Additional scholarship and fellowship funds are needed. The present scholarship funds are very limited. During the recent period of economic distress they have proved to be entirely inadequate for an institution of this size. The admitting officers have contact each year with scores of brilliant young people eager to attend the university who must finally abandon the hope of doing so because they have not sufficient money to pay its charges. Other institutions which appeal to students in this region are better provided with funds for student aid. Frequently students who prefer to come to the University of Buffalo and whose educational purposes would be best served by attendance at this institution must ultimately decide to accept a scholarship elsewhere. The university has need of several additional buildings. First of all it needs a physical education building for men and women. In preceding reports I have emphasized the total inadequacy of existing facilities for physical education and athletics. The appropriate development of these essential phases of education will remain impossible until provision is made to house them properly. A large building near the center of the business section of the city, preferably on the site of Townsend hall, has been needed for some time to house the Evening session and the Law school. The continued growth 3 of the Evening session renders this need every year more manifest. The Law school is now somewhat smaller than it was several years ago. Its present building just barely accommodates it. If the enrollment in this division should increase again the Law school building would immediately be intolerably congested. The university needs dormitories for men and women. Already it enrolls a considerable body of students who come from a distance and must find living quarters with the university's assistance. It is reasonable to expect that many more students from a distance will be attracted to its several schools—if the university has the facilities for housing them. In the absence of such facilities here most of these students are likely to go elsewhere. Progress of the Divisions College of Arts and Sciences No essential changes in the educational program of the college have been made during the year under review. An experience of nearly five years with the program now enables the officers of the college to note certain tendencies and to measure significant results. There has been a steady improvement in the quality of the student population. Holders of state scholarships increase in numbers each year. The percentage of freshmen graduating in the upper two-fifths of their respective high school classes increases. It becomes necessary to drop fewer students for poor scholarship at the end of each semester. Students apparently respond to the opportunities for free choice and the absence of coercive academic regulations. They work harder; and they like it better. One danger inherent in the tutorial plan is that of over-specialization. During the year under review a study has been made to estimate the degree of specialization. The study shows that the anticipated danger has to some extent been realized. The college is about to take steps to offset that tendency. An essential part of the instructional plan of the college is the final comprehensive examination. With the assistance of the Bureau of Personnel Research steadyprogress is being made in improving the comprehensive examinations in all departments. During the year under review outside examiners drawn from other institutions assisted the members of our own faculty in the conduct of these examinations. Some 8 per cent of the senior class who failed to pass the examination were not recommended for their degrees. Library Science In my last report I ventured some stricon the new requirements which the State Education department had set up for school librarians. By prescribing specific technical subjects in the field of education as well as in library science these requirements tend to reduce the amount of general education which candidates for school librarianships can secure. The university finds itself in total disagreement with the tures philosophy of the department which Hes behind these new prescriptions. The department's position is that techniques are more important elements in the preparation of the practitioner than general scholarship; that particular technical courses must be required even at the expense of breadth and depth of general education. The university takes the opposite position. It holds that extensive general education and genuine scholarship are the> most important possessions of teachers or librarians and that acquisition of specific techniques is of secondary importance. The conflict of these points of view is irreconcilable. The university does not expect to convert the agencies of the department which regulate the preparation of teachers and librarians. But it expects to keep on protesting against decisions of the department which it considers unwise and educationally unsound. The immediate application of these statements to the case in hand is this. Shall the university lengthen its course so that there may be included in it general education and also the recently prescribed technical subjects ? Or shall we reduce the cultural content of our curriculum in order that our graduates may present themselves for certification in the same length of time as those who get their preparation elsewhere? The director of the library science course favors the lengthening of that course, and I endorse his position. Schools of Medicine and Dentistry The administrative reorganization of the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry and the establishment of a new Division of Nursing have been described earlier in this report. A single brief comment may be added. During the year under review the principal activity first of the advisory committee and then of the new-Iy constituted faculty has been the revision and the improvement of the curriculum. The evidence is clear that by entering the field of nursir g education the university has contributed greatly to the elevation of standards and to the broadening of opportunities in this reg'en. For the third year the committee on examinations prepared and administered a comprehensive examination to the senior medical students at the end of their course. The chairman of the committee secured the of the authorities of Washington consent university, Western Reserve university and the University of Toronto to administer to their senior students the section of the examination devoted to surgery. The departments in all three of these institutions were enthusiastic in their estimates of the test and of its accuracy as a device for measuring student accomplishment. The research publications of members of the staff of the School of Medicine during the year under review, some 70 in number, represent a formidable contribution to the volume of medical literature. Nevertheless, one of the unfortunate features of the necessary curtailment of appropriations was the reduction of sums allocated to research �UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO 4 throughout the university. Some of the university's most competent investigators have been greatly handicapped by lack of funds. It is to be hoped that this situation may be remedied in the near future. In response to numerous requests the School of Dentistry inaugurated this year on a tentative basis a program of posegraduate instruction. The beginning was made in a three-day course in oral surgery, in the conduct of which the school made use of the clinical facilities of the Buffalo City hospital. The class was limited to 15 members and applications were received in excess of this number. The results were so satisfactory that it is planned next year to offer a more extensive program of courses. The Lay Clinic for Orthodontia, made possible by the bequest of the late Dr. Victor Lay, was for the first time put into complete operation as a teaching unit. Under the direction of Dr. Clifford G. Glaser a number of patients are now being cared for and senior dental students are given ample opportunity to observe the correction of the various types of dental malforma- tions. During the past year a reorganization of the dental teaching program at the Buffalo Gty hospital was effected which allows an extension of the scope of the interneship for members of the senior class. Four senior dental students are now assigned to hospital the every two weeks for the interneships during the first and last quarters of the senior year. Each student thus has the benefit of four weeks of intensive hospital training. School of Pharmacy On April 22 and 23, 1936, the 50th anniversary of the founding of the School of Pharmacy was celebrated. The school kept open house and was visited during the two days by approximately 1500 interested persons. The alumni of the school presented to the university a portrait of Dean Gregory. The dean on this occasion gave to the university his remarkable collection of old mortars. The anniversary dinner, which was attended by representatives of other schools of pharmacy and of the State Education department as well as by a large body of alumni, gave opportunity for a public demonstration of appreciation of Dean Gregory's noteworthy contributions to pharmaceutical education and to the development of the university. The enrollment of the school, which had been declining for three years, increased by more than 20 per cent. School of Law For several years the members of the faculty of the Law school have felt that it was imperative that the full time staff of the school be increased. Up to the year under review, the council could not see its way to the appropriation of the necessary sums. The budget for the year 1936-37, however, carries provision for the addition of three full time persons to the teaching staff and for a full time librarian. Appointments have been made to fill the newly created positions. The council also authorized the reconstruction of the ground floor of the Law school building to provide private offices for all the additional full time members of the faculty, and the reconditioning and expansion of the library which occupies the third floor of the building. School of Business Administration The year under review saw the first operation of the new program of education in which 21 business enterprises of this region co-operated, and which was further aided by 15 business and industrial leaders who served either as associate members of the faculty or as special lecturers. The program is designed to give students the stimulus of frequent contact with both local and national leaders in the business field and to offer to students of high standing an opportunity to participate at least once a week in the actual operations of ane of the co-operating companies. The majority of seniors in this group of students were engaged immediately upon graduation by the co-operating enterprises in which they had done their observation work. School of Education The vigorous program of the School of Education, inaugurated six years ago, has already had significant results. The cardinal principle of this program has been insistence upon high quality. The school has religiously refrained from entering into competition with other institutions and from duplicating unnecessarily courses offered elsewhere. It has seen its opportunity in the exploration of fields previously unoccupied, in the provision of graduate work of high standard, and in such co-operation with other educational agencies as might enrich to the fullest extent the courses for the preparation of teachers. There is strong prospect of an increasing demand for work of the kind already offered by the school and also for other types of courses. Recent regulations of the state, requiring considerable periods of inservice study as prerequisites for the decennial renewal of teachers' certificates, will inevitably bring to the university large numbers of teachers of this region. Indeed already a larger variety of courses is demanded than the faculty of the school can offer. School of Social Work In June, 1935, the curriculum of social work which had been attached to the College of Arts and Sciences was given the status of a separate division with the designation, School of Social Work. The new school has now completed its first year of independent existence. The separation was undoubtedly advantageous. It enhanced the prestige of the social work program botli in the community and in the profession at large. During a large part of the year the faculty has been engaged in formulating and launching a new curriculum. Three objects have been sought in the revision. The undergraduate social science prerequisite in the old curriculum favored unduly the students who came up through the University of Buffalo. It placed a con- siderable handicap on students entering from other colleges. The new curriculum is more flexible in this respect. In the second place the new curriculum aims to adjust the training program to the requirements of public welfare agencies. Agencies devoted to social security and public assistance are likely to need a much larger trained personnel than is now available. The new curriculum recognizes this need for changed emphasis in the training program. In the third place the new curriculum offers a second postgraduate year. The certificate in social work is awarded after one year of postgraduate study. The second year of postgraduate work leads to the degree of master of social service. The school has benefited greatly by the assistance of a board of consulting associates, composed of persons active in welfare and charitable undertakings, but not members of the faculty, who have consented to serve with several of the school's most important standing committees. Contrary to expectation the enrollment of the school increased. In the combined full and part time categories it registered 161 students. This figure does not include the 61 students sent to the school on fellowships provided by the State TERA. These students have been drawn from nearly every county in the state. The Evening Session Only once in its history has the Evening session suffered a decline in enrollment—in the year 1932-33. The increase this year was nearly 8 per cent. The Evening session has become an enormous enterprise. But more significant than its size or than its invincible tendency to grow is the gradual crystallization of its character. It has become perfectly patent that the community looks to the university to provide for persons employed during the day time courses that are for the most part fully equivalent to, if not exactly identical with, those that it offers to its regular day students. More and more the clientele of the Evening session is made up of persons who have had a full high school training or have gone part way through college or have graduated from college. Approximately 95 per cent of last year's enrollment fell in these three categories. Twenty-seven per cent were college graduates. And in the main these persons desire university credit. Each year a larger number of them are candidates for degrees.. The Evening session, while recognizing this trend in its patronage, has been active, nevertheless, in providing other types of educational offerings. Summer Session The Summer session of 1936 offered a wider range of subjects than that of the preceding year and enrolled a larger number of students, a total of 590. The tendency, noted in my previous reports, for the Summer session to attract a constantly larger number of graduate students continued. Graduated students constituted 4?

The annual report of the comptroller for the fiscal year which ended June 30, 1936 is presented herewith. The balance sheet, Exhibit "A", shows endowment assets of $5,349,712.93; plant assets of $6,533,745.8*; and operating assets of $50,545.02. On June 30, 1936, the balance in the endowment fund account was $5,323,270.01, as shown in Exhibit "B" presented herewith. On June 30, 1935 this balance was $5,279,004.47. The net increase for the year, therefore, in the endowment fund account was The total operating income for the year was $942,089-78; the total operating disbursements were $925,376.39 as shown below. The year, therefore, closed with a credit balance of $16,713.39 which is 1.77 per cent of the total income for the year. From this surplus the sum of $12,951.19 was appropriated by the committee on general administration to balance the budget for the fiscal year 1936-37. The following is a comparative table of the operating account of the university for the fiscal years 1933-34, 1934-35 and 1935-36: Income 1933-1934 1934-1935 1935-1936 Fees Received from Students $734,616.70 $726,383.26 $739,065.95 Income from Endowment 162,762.92 169,044.34 171,865.42 13,322.89 Dental Infirmary (Net) 15,054.06 14,747.48 Appropriation from 1933-34 Surplus (Medical School) 10,000.00 9,400.00 Gifts Received to Apply on Salaries Rental Property Income 1,430.00 1,182.00 1,222.50 Miscellaneous 4,140.31 7,781.80 7,005.52 $44,265.54. Of the total of $5,428,890.70 subscribed in the 1929 EndowFund campaign, there has been received to June 30, 1936 the sum of $3,015,203.15. Included in the total subscription of $5,428,890.70 reported by the campaign committee in 1929, was a remainder interest in a trust fund of $500,000 and also a gift of stock which at the time had a market value of approximately $1,000,000. The corpus of the above trust, namely $500,000, is in the hands of the bank trustee and will pass to the university upon the termination of the trust. This trust estate is not included in the above $3,015,203.15. The stock above referred to has been delivered to the university. It is included at its present market value. The endowment fund account is made up of $1,911,805.70 of general purpose funds, and $3,411,464.31 of special purpose funds as shown in Exhibit "B". The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1935 was $6,185,-728.08. The value of the plant assets on June 30, 1936 was $6,515,918.16. The increase during the year covered by this report was $330,190.08. Of this amount, $185,476.50 was added to the value of the contents of Lockwood Memorial library to cover gifts of rare books and drawings, coins and medals received during the year under review from Mr. Thomas B.

Of the total expenses for the year 1935-36. 54.8 per cent was for salaries of instruction; 61.9 per cent was for salaries of instruction, supplies used in instruction and operation and maintenance of libraries. Government bonds purchased by the university yielded an average income of 5.04 per cent on the actual investment; railroad bonds 4.37 per cent; public utility bonds 5.38 per cent; industrial bonds 5.50 per cent; miscellaneous bonds, all gifts, 1.66 per cent: stocks 3.88 per cent: real estate mortgages and mortgage certificates 1.35 per cent. Funds available for reinvestment during the year covered by this report were placed largely in common stocks of large and successful enterprises. The liquidating, or market value, of the stocks and bonds in the university portfolio, which had been purchased by the university, and excluding gifts, is in excess of their book value, or cost. Gifts and bequests received during the year which ended June 30. 1936 include the following: Addition to Seymour H. Knox foundation. $34,200; Estate of Edmond D. McCarthy, $8500; Mr. and Mrs. George F. Rand. $5000; Mrs. James H. McNulty. $4000; Estate of John T. Dillon, $3000; Estate of Richard L. Ball. S3000; Estate of William A.

Houpt, $1000 for the establishment of the "George Knight Houpt Prize"; and Estate of Wilbur E. Houpt. SlOOO for the establishment of the "Lucia Maria Houpt Prize". At the close of the year the university's paramount need is an additional million dollars of endowment to yield free income to preserve intact the university's excellent teaching staffs and to further improve and develop them. Second only to this need is the need of adequate facilities on the campus for physical training and the need of adequate quarters on Niagara square for the Evening session and the School of Law.

Students were drawn from all over the state of New York, fiom eight other states and the District of Columbia, and from Canada. These facts have a three-fold significance. First of all it is clear that the Summer session has become an indispensable part of the university's instructional apparatus. It is not any longer just a useful sideline; it is an integral part of the university's program of teaching. Secondly, the Summer session is now prevailingly in spirit and purpose a graduate school. In the third place the Summer session draws its studenrs from a wider geographical area than does any other administrative unit of the university, and from a larger number of other institutions. It becomes the best means, therefore, for spreading information concerning the university's of- ferings. In the reports of the last four years I have called attention to the steady growth of graduate work. The increase, undoubtedly, reflects a growing awareness of the strength of the university's departments and confidence in its standards. The total number of candidates for graduate degrees in the year under review was 294. The number, it will be observed, is larger than the enrollment of several of the older schools of the university.

It may be stated thus. Graduate degrees should be conferred only on those who have demonstrated their capacity for creative intellectual work, and the demonstration must be plain for all to see and to judge. The university is not interested in merely building up a body of students who may be loosely classified as graduate students; it is interested in the phenomenon of genuine scholarship and in the stimulation of professional initiative. It is not disturbed by the fact that its advanced degrees are more difficult to secure than those of most other institutions; it intends them to be so. It is unwilling to accept candidates for advanced degrees in any department which is not equipped to offer them ample facilities for their independent work and the individual attention of competent instructors. Respectfully submitted, Samuel P. Capen. Branch Clubs Planned Preliminary plans for founding of three new alumni branch clubs were discussed at conferences in Central New York last month. In Utica, Alumni Secretary William G. Cook, BS, '27, met with a dozen graduates who elected Edward B. Williams. DDS '15 chairman, and decided to call a general meeting in February. Similar plans were made in Geneva, where Homer J. Knickerbocker, PhG '95, MD '98 is chairman. Cook also conferred with Willard E. Price, DDS '21 in Auburn, who plans an early committee meeting. $5,323,270.01 Where Are They Now? A new list of lost alumni is published every month.

Alumnae Meet Jan. 18 Continuing a regular series of monthly programs, the University of Buffalo Alumnae will meet in Norton hall on Mon- day evening, January 18, to hear Mrs. Catherine Rowley Lautz, it is announced by President Mac Tabor Painton, BA '28. Mrs. Lautz is a former student in the Law school, and is at present director or the Women's and Professional projects, WPA district 12. Her subject: "The Work Relief Program." Speaker at the last meeting, held in midDecember, was Stanley D. Travis, assistant professor of English and director of dramatics. These Youthful Deans The trend of Buffalo's administrators seems to be toward youth, as evidenced by a glance at the ages of its ten deans. Their average age is less than 42 years, with Dr. Edward W. Koch of the Medical and Dental schools topping the list at only 54, and Evening session's Dean Lewis A. Froman still able to pass for a student at 30. Ages of the other deans: Leslie O. Cummings, Education, 4S; Dr. A. Bertram Lemon, PhG '13, Pharmacy, 47; Dr. Julian Park, Arts, 47; Dr. Niles Carpenter, Social Work, 45; Dr. Elmer H. Heath, assistant dean, Medicine, 41; Russell W. Groh, DDS 18" associate dean, Dentistry, '39; Dr. Ralph C. Epstein, Business Administration, 37; Francis M. Shea, Law, '31. DECANAL TRIO Three of Buffalo's newest executives.

December, 1936 Alumni Club Starts Student Aid Fund Help for Deserving Young Men Is Goal Many an alumnus kindly remembers the financial assistance he received in the university because of the existence of a variety of scholarship and loan funds. Upwards of 50 such funds are in existence today, created by alumni, friends and organizations interested in aiding worthy students to complete their university work. Some awards are competitive. Some are based on good character and real need for a helping hand. But when all of them are added up, the total falls far short of the number needed in an institution the size and type of Buffalo. When all existing funds are in full use, many a deserving youngster still finds himself shut out completely, or seriously cramped at any rate, by the pecuniary stringencies of going to college. To help bridge the fiscal gap between ambition and attainment, the University of Buffalo Alumni Club, Inc., long established as Buffalo's male graduate organization, is laying plans for a membership campaign, proceeds from which will go into an aid fund for worthy men students. With more than 3000 potential members in Buffalo alone, and hundreds more in the surrounding territory, officers of the club believe membership fees, which are nominal, should make it possible to help several students, beginning next year. Awards will be based on good character, need for help, scholastic ability and extracurricular achievement. Help will be extended as frequently to men who desire to enter college, as to those already enrolled. If funds are sufficient, some may be seen through their entire four years. Many alumni frequently ask what the Alumni club is, what relation it bears, if any, to the General Alumni association and the various divisional associations. The General Alumni association started out 22 years ago as the co-ordinating body between the Medical, Dental and other divisional alumni associations. Its chief functions today are the sponsorship of the annual University day dinner, a Speakers' bureau, encouragement of branch (out-oftown) alumni activity. It is operated by and for men and women graduates. TheAlumni club was founded as a men's organization, once had a commodious club house in North street, which it gave up during the depression. Though many of its members take part in G.A.A. activities, there is no official relationship between the two. The Alumni club is essentially a "stag" organization. During its existence it has been of material assistance to the Athletic council in its sales of football season tickets. It sponsored last year's Block B dinner, has several times held parties in honor of varsity gridmen, and has in other ways shown a natural interest in university athletics. Present officers are: President, John W. Greenwood, BS '21; vice president, Michael A. Crage, LLB '06; secretary, Robert E. Rich, BS (Bus) "35; treasurer, Armin H. Bode, DDS '15.

CAPEN and COUNCIL MEMBER GEORGE F. RAND. Dr. Capen earned his PhD. there in 1902, was awarded an honorary LLD in 1933- Councilor Rand holds a BS and PhD from the same institution. To enable him to make a survey of adult education in Buffalo, Dr. EARL J. McGRATH, BA '28, MA '30, has been granted a three-months' leave of absence from his duties as assistant to the chancellor. Alumnus McGrath's investigation will be part of the New York state inquiry into the cost and character of education, of which Dr. Capen is associate director. The College In New York for the annual meeting of the Association of Colleges and Universities of the State of New York was DEAN JULIAN PARK, to report for the committee on requirements for teaching, of which he is chairman. To Detroit last month went DR. ISRAEL I. EFROS, professorial lecturer in Semitics, to speak on "The New Poetry in Palestine" before the Congregation Shaarey Zedek. Two days later he was at the College of Jewish Studies in Chicago to speak on "Hebrew Poetry in America Today." Published by the Princeton University Press was a new book, "Bermuda and the American Revolution," by DR. WILFRED B. KERR, associate professor of history. The book is the first of a projected series on the British colonies of North America which remained within the empire when the 13 American colonies revolted.

Even in death, the university's own specimen has shown tendencies in that direction. When Alumni Vincent J. Loughlin, LLB '22 and Kent Christy, LLB '24, presented a magnificent bison head to Norton hall on Homecoming day, 1934, it was given a place of honor overlooking the main stair well. Some time ago Boscoe, as he is lovingly called by undergraduates, was replaced by a huge oil painting. Down he came to another place of honor directly over the main counter, where fraternity pledges now are forced to kneel, bow salute, confess that the bison is king of them all.

If so, you will be interested in Federal and state income tax laws which classify gifts as allowable deductions up to 15 per cent of income. These gifts must be bona fide donations to charitable, educational or other philanthropic institutions. The university is a privately endowed educational institution which comes within that group. Payments on 1929 Endowment pledges are allowable deductions, if made on or before December 31, 1936. N. Y.

'32 Alumni Clubs Hear University News Both Pick Medical School Grads For Presidents In New York's Steuben county a few years ago existed one of Buffalo's most active alumni branch clubs. Its meetings attracted caravans of visitors from the university, its spirit resulted in creation of an alumni trophy for the county's high school basketball champions. Revived last month was this strong outpost of good will at a dinner in Hornell's Hotel Sherwood. Because of the location of the three principal communities in its territory (Bath, Hornell, Dansville), it was renamed the Tri-Valley Alumni association, will function this year with these officers: President, William J. Tracy, MD '09, Hornell; vice president, Edward W. Woodbury, DDS '15, Bath; secretary, James G. Austin, Law '26, Hornell; treasurer, William J. Lawson, PhG '14, Hornell. Commanded by a legal-appearing subpoena, guests came to hear the university placed on "trial," with the committee acting as associate judges, the audience as jury, and speakers from campus as attorneys for the defense. Following a dinner of turkey and trimmings, Justice Adrian B. Stanton, DDS '24, introduced Justice Tracy, who presided. Defense Counsel Russell W. Groh, DDS '18, explained his duties as new associate dean ot dentistry and reported on the progress of the medico-dental plan of instruction. Defense Counsel James E. Peelle introduced testimony on the successful football season. Defense Counsel William G. Cook, BS '27, alumni secretary, offered in evidence the motion picture, "On the Campus," which was marked Exhibit A. Also introduced were Associate Counsels Robert I. Millonzi, BA '32, LLB '35, president of the General Alumni Association, and Dr. Frederick J. HoII, BS '22, professor of zoology. When the defense rested, the case was adjourned. It was whispered that the bench would enter a verdict of no cause of action. Last year the Lockport Alumni Club had for its president Chester O. Baysor, LLB '14, treasurer of Niagara County. This year it will function under Clyde W. George, MD '29, assistant superintendent of the Niagara County sanatorium, and an ardent fisherman (see cut). Dr. George was elected at the annual dinner meeting last month, at which Alumni Councilor Albert P. Sy, PhD '08, spoke on "Old and New Things in Diet"; Head Coach Peelle commented on the football season, which was not yet ended, and Secretary Cook narrated the campus movie. For assistance on the club's program, President George can depend upon the following board of officers: Vice president, Alfred LLB GEORGE, C. w. G OBr 29 '28; corresponding secretary, Mr. Baysor; recording secretary, Donald Gay, BA '32; treasurer, John Brophy, Jr., PhG '21; executive committee, Howard W. Wendel, BS (Bus) '32; Mary Dora Taylor, LLB '26; James W. Duncan, DDS '19; Frederick M. Havens, MD '33; William H. Bell, LLB '34. All are of Lockport save Dr. Havens, who lives in Newfane. - NEW _.

Y. To welcome old grads on that day, student and faculty workers have been laying plans for weeks past. AH graduates who won letters in football or basketball during the last eight years have ben invited to be guests of the Athletic council at the game. Upwards of 100 complimentary tickets have been sent out, and an alumni Block B section will be reserved in the stands. At the end of the first half Dr. Harold G. Hewitt, who has just been re-elected president of the Athletic council, will step to a microphone to broadcast a welcome to the warriors of other days. President Robert I. Millonzi, BA 32, LLB 35, of the General Alumni association, will speak on behalf of the graduate body. Director Robert Planners Anticipate a Victory Celebration Parke of Norton hall will tell about the alumni program which the students have prepared for the day. Hot coffee will flow at a matinee after the game. The annual Harvest dance will be held at 10 o'clock that night. All Alumni will be guests of the union at both functions. The Harvest dance is one of Norton halls traditional events. Strictly informal, it is frequently attended by merrymakers clad in old clothes which often take a rustic turn. The dance hall is turned into a "barn"" for the night, where corn shocks, cider and square dances have a definite place in the festivities. Successful in its own right, the Harvest dance will be better if Buffalo wins that day, which sports writers and other critics believe it will do. In any event, the game will be a minor classic, with Hobart determined to avenge the upset which gave Buffalo a 13-12 victory last year. Regular evening service is now offered on weekdays by the Norton cafeteria, where Manager Helen Coleman offers complete ■40-cent dinners. Thus homecomers need not stir from the campus after the game. For the moments between dinner time and dance time, Norton hall's bookshelves offer ample pastime. Student members of the Homecoming committee are George Bury, president of the Norton union board of managers; Norman Peterson, chairman of its program committee and Arthur Kemp, chairman of the Harvest dance. Since there are 4138 alumni in Buffalo alone, all invited to the Homecoming dance and since non-university persons must pay, the problem of identification is no small one. Unable to provide 4138 guest tickets, the the committee has decided to use the Bulletin for identification purposes. Recipients should tear out the address blank on page 4 of this issue, which they are requested to surrender at the Harvest dance. Holders of that form and their dance partners will be admitted without charge. Alumni are reminded that special rates on admission to home games may be had by purchase of season tickets. Chairman Arnott A. Moore, DDS '15 of the 1936 Football Co-operators emphasizes that four admissions may be bought for the price of three, and that all admissions on one ticket may be used at one game, or in any other combination. He suggests that alumni form parties of four for the Hobart game, the total cost of admission being reduced by one dollar. If not used up that day, admissions will be good for the one remaining game, Buffalo vs. R. P. 1., on Nov. 21. Hewitt Elected Again That Buffalo's present, and admittedly successful athletic policy will be continued WHAT THE SPORT SCRIBES SAY A random fistful of early-m-the-season clippings from the pages of local and out-of-town papers for another year was indicated by the election of all Athletic council officers last month. The results: President, Dr. Harold G. Hewitt; vice president, Dr. Martin A. Brumbaugh; secretary, Assistant Dean Shaw Livermore; business manager, William J. Blackburn. �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Alumni Kinsmen Swell Freshman Class The number of entering freshmen who are closely related to alumni shows an increase over last year's figure, according an Alumni office analysis. A total of 81 first-year men and women has been recorded for 1936, as against the 1935 figure of 77. Because of the length of the list, the figure includes only members of the immediate families. Cousins, uncles, and "in-laws" are not shown. to The College of Arts and Sciences tops all other divisions with 26 such entrants, while the Pharmacy school is second with 17, and the Law school third with 15. Four students are grandsons, 37 are sons or daughters of alumni, and one is both a son and grandson.

Monroe Picks Mondo When President George D. Greenwood, DDS '16, of the Monroe County Alumni club, called a meeting of his association for the night of the Buffalo-Rochester football game, he announced that it would be a victory dinner for the Blue and White squad. That his prediction was sound was proved when the squad arrived still glowing with 29-2 triumph (see page 1). Alumni glowed too, as the 30-odd varsitymen stood up one by one for introductions by Assistant Coach Fritz Febel, pinch-hitting for Skipper Jim Peele who was already on his way to scout the Alfred-Hartwick night game. From GAA President, Robert I. Millonzi, BA '32, LLB '35, Dr. Greenwood received the General Alumni association's official charter. Few moments later, Dr. Greenwood happily passed it on to his successor, Charles J. Mondo, LLB 16. Robert M. Elliott, MD '90, stood up to receive homage as the oldest alumnus present. Shaw Livermore, secretary of the Athletic council and assistant dean of the School of Business Administration read a telegram of congratulations to the team from William J. Blackburn, business manager of athletics. Alumni Secretary William G. Cook, BS '27, narrated the university cinema, "On the Campus." Then the orchestra switched from classical to popular music and the dinner dissolved into a dance. Thus for the first time in a long time were alumni able to crow over a decisive major victory. That a few more such Bison stampedes will add new stimulus to a steadily growing alumni spirit cannot be denied. Typical of old grad feeling was a resoa ' lution introduced at the dinner by Anthony C. Scinta, MD '11, which would establish jointly with University of Rochester alumni in the Buffalo area, a trophy similar to the famous Little Brown Jug, as a symbol of Rochester Buffalo rivalry which began in 1894. The proposal was approved without a murmur of dissent, and now goes to the U. of R. group for joint approval. If the trophy is established, a struggle for its possession presumably would begin in 1937. Others elected at the Rochester meeting were: Vice president, Hyman J. Mandell, PhG '23; secretary, Robert J. Rowan, DDS '35; treasurer, Austin A. Gendreau, AC 19; executive committee, Seymour Bernstein, LLB "27; Joseph B. Loder, MD '21; Simon Meltzer, BA '30; Harold J.

Enrollment Up Again Total enrollment for all university divisions now stands at 3905, an increase of 10.5 per cent over the same period last year, according to Miss Emma E.

Enrollment totals for both full-time and part-time students are: Jiviaion Irts Jusiness Dentistry iducation .aw Medicine 'harmacy Fall '935 656 213 117 38 197 272 110 iocial Work rotal day divisions 1603 Evening session 1929 t-all 1930 668 209 116 35 200 266 120 7 1621 2284 3rand total 3532 3905 It should be borne in mind that the number of students enrolled in social work and education is considerably greater than the above figures show, because many of them are included in Evening session totals. Freshmen in the undergraduate division of Arts, Business Administration and Pharmacy increased from 315 to 399, or about 8 per cent. In the other divisions of Law, Medicine and Dentistry, the total rose from 187 to 194, or about 4 per cent. The total for all first year students, therefore, rose from 502 last Fall to 533 this Fall, an increase of about 6 per cent. The increase in the Freshman class was greater than that in any of the upper classes. 1936 Memorial Grows Since the announcement published in last month's Bulletin concerning the Class Memorial of 1936, two more pledges have been received, bringing the total up to $505.

"We ought to take five, maybe six games."' Thus does Buffalo's new Head Coach Jim Peelle look forward to this season's eight game football school schedule which begins October 3 with a home engagement against Defiance college. Issuing an early call for candidates, the quiet-spoken ex-Purdue quarterback dispensed with football camp, put the squad right to work on the campus practice field weeks before the university officially opened its 91st academic session. That the dynasty of Purdue mentors founded by George Van Bibber in 1934 will be continued was indicated when athletic authorities announced that another Boilermaker will assist Peelle this year. He is Fritz Febel, chunky all-star guard and onetime assistant to Noble Kizer. One of the greatest forward wall performers turned out in recent years, he will be in charge of the Blue and White line. The craftiness of a coaching staff, however, is of little account without material. That this year's material will be good was Peelle's reason for an optimistic prediction. As candidates began drifting in from summer jobs, he looked to the following men for the stuff that produces victories: Danny two COUNCIL of Buffalo Bulletin Octobe:, 1936 Dalfonso, Oscar Kerstetter and Vito Grieco, Buffalo all-high school stars; big-handed Hanford Searl, former East Aurora captain; Carl Krathwohl, who starred last year at center; Bob Young, trained by Pop Warner at Temple; Bobbie Belden, whose fine career was interrupted by a mid-season injury, and such other veteran lettermen as Wally Vaughn, Salvatore LaTona, Clyde Nagle, Warren Bickers, Carl Shiesley, Gene Batt and Frank Harrington. The team will average 190 pounds per man—higher than for several seasons. There will be at least two complete first-string backfields—almost a record at Buffalo. The bench will sag under ample substitute linemen. Virtually, every man on the squad is now thoroughly conversant with the modified Notre Dame system. Buffalo will play a sensible schedule, made up of teams in its own class. For all these reasons, plus behind-thescenes improvement in athletic administration, Buffalo rooters could agree with Skipper Peelle that the 1936 prospects are good. To many fans the defeat of Rochester is imperative. The Rivermen have not been on the Bulls' schedule since 1932, a year of strong feeling on athletic matters. When they follow the Bulls to the Flower City on October 10, Buffalo partisans will look for victory as the proper way to renew an old rivalry. Another interest peak will be reached on Homecoming day, November 7, when Hobart invades Rotary field with the avowed intention of avenging its one-point defeat of last year. Peelle believes his proteges can duplicate the achievement and make returning alumni happy. Again this year the Athletic council is offering home-game season tickets at bargain 1936 SCHEDULE Oct. 3—Defiance, home 10—Rochester, away 17—Alfred, away 24—Hiram, home 31—Clarkson, away Nov. 7—HOBART, HOMECOMING 14—Wayne, away 21— R. P. 1., home rates. Each ticket is good for four admissions, sold for the price of three. Admissions are interchangeable, and may be used up by four persons at one game or in any other combination. Tickets are transferable. To aid in the distribution of tickets throughout Western New York, a group of 100 loyal alumni has organized the 1936 Football Co-operators. Head man is Arnott A. Moore, DDS '15, longtime member of the Alumni club and present chairman of its athletic committee. On the executive committee of the Co-operators are: Judge Allen E. Bargar, LLB '14, Jamestown; Chester O. Baysor, LLB '14, Lockport; L. Paul Bash, BS (Bus) '35, Niagara Falls; Walter S. Behrens, DDS '30; Louis G. Farris, BS '26, MD '30; John G.

MILLONZI, '32 B. day on November 7 (Buffalo vs. Hobart), the 22nd anniversary dinner February 22, 1937; the Alumni Speakers bureau, and stimulation of branch club activities. As an undergraduate, President Millonzi was a typical "activities man". He not only served as business manager and president of the Blue Masquers, varsity football manager, secretary of Bison Head and chairman of the board of publications, but also found time for the Commoners" club, the Bios club, freshman basketball, the S.A.C., the G.M.F., and the Athletic council. He also was a delegate to the Colgate Freshman camps and a delegate to the N.S.F.A. congress, once in Atlanta. Ga., and once in New York City, where he served as chairman. During his Law school career he was for a time president of Norton union. He is at present a G.A.A. delegate from the Arts and Sciences Alumni association.

Among the new projects for the coming year approved by the council is the preparation of a cinema tour of the university. The move is the result of a 20-minute "show" presented during the past year before several alumni groups. The reel included glimpses of campus buildings, prominent members of the faculty and of some student activities. With the financial cooperation of the various divisions and several special departments, a more elaborate production will be made, which will be useful for both alumni and high school audiences. To the natural question: Will it be a sound picture? the Alumni council replies. "We are not ready yet." The Alumni council was established four years ago as an agency of liaison between the alumni and the S. I.

He has served as president of the New York State Conference of Social Workers and the Jewish Federation of Social Service. He was first elected to the University council in 1927 and has served continuously since. Businessmen Aid Again That Buffalo's School of Business Administration has caught the favorable attention of the business world was demonstrated last year when 15 local and national executives served as associate faculty members and special lecturers, under an experimental plan inaugurated by Dean Ralph C. Epstein. This year a similar imposing group will assist the school in giving students a well diversified contact with leaders in all major fields of industry, commerce and finance.

These 15 businessmen will give formal lectures to the entire student body. Many of them will hold conferences and round tables for selected groups of students, to supplement their formal presentations. Some of their concerns, and others to a total of 20, will work with the university again this year in offering clinical instruction to business students. Qualified undergraduates will spend a half day or more each week in plants and stores under direct supervision of company executives and the guidance of regular faculty members, observing details of organization and operation. At the end of each semester, they will be given full college credit for those efforts. Thus, what is still a new plan for business training will give students contacts which may serve them in good stead when they finally join the ranks of job-seekers. IN 1929 A total of 2266 Alumni pledged more than a quarter of a million dollars to the University's Endowment Fund. Today some pledges in default, though the University's need for the help of her sons and daughters is greater than ever. are Token Payments Are proving popular in many kinds of financial transactions. A little now and then will eventually do a lot. Token payments on Endowment Pledges are welcome. �ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN Bequeathes $300,000 That the university may soon see another new building started was the subject of speculation among alumni and friends of the institution as a result of the filing of a will for probate last June. In the document, the late Mrs. Evelyn Howes Clark, widow of Irwin Brayton Clark, onetime prominent Buffalo seed merchant, bequeathed $300,001) to the university for construction of "some worthwhile" building on campus. Under terms of the will as filed in Surrogate's court, the money must be placed in trust until the interest and principle are sufficient to carry out the testators desires. "I want said building to be as pretentious as any on the campus," she stated in the document. This, she said, should not require more than five years. No specification was made as to what branch of the university the building should house. On the larger campus buildings, the last report of Comptroller George D. Crofts places the following valuations, exclusive of land, furniture or equipment: Foster hall, $744,909.67; Edmund Hayes hail, $613,151.21; Lockwood Memorial library, $430,960.85; Crosby hall, $426,-988.62; Norton hall, $218,828.64. Anticipated this fall is delivery of a "College Music Set," granted by the Carnegie corporation. The set will become a permanent property of the university, and will be housed in a sound-proof room in Lockwood Memorial library, where it will be available to the student body. It consists of a large Caphart gramophone with approximately 900 records of operas, symphonies, string quartets and other music, beside some 50 volumes of musical literature. 3 Alumni News Brevities Branch Club Directory "05 MD—Arthur G.

FOOTBALL/ Season Tickets Now 4 1' on Sale ADMISSIONS $3 (One Admission Free) Oil a Football Co-operator or Alumni Office This Hard Headed Generation A collegiate custom, common to many American institutions, is the creation of a memorial by each graduating class. A long trail of stained glass windows, stone benches, arches, gates and fountains testifies to the human wish for immortality, as well as the desire to do something for Alma Mater. That today's student body is more practical, more serious minded than many of its predecessors was proved last Spring when members of BuffaNANKNOWLTON, "36 lo's fourth year class determined to create a 1936 class memorial in the form of a cash gift to the - - university. First suggested by Nancy Lou Knowlton, president of Norton union, the Senior Memorial plan was taken up by the senior classes on campus. Later it spread to the Medical school with good results. Because of the lateness of its presentation, the plan was not adopted by the Dental and Law school seniors, though one dentistry senior did join. Final results showed a total of 114 graduating students had pledged themselves to give to the university $1 a year for five years, making a total of $570. This was later reduced to 99 students when the 15 Medical school pledgors requested cancellation of their pledges because of the sudden death of their class secretary, Jean S. Hahl, BA '32, and their decision to erect a memorial to her in the Medical school library. This leaves the total pledge at $495. The Alumni office, which is handling the clerical work for the pledgors, has agreed to present the plan to future graduating classes. Here is the list of pledgors to the 1936 Class Memorial: ARTS AND SCIENCES Herbert C. Boedecker Geraldine L. Oswald Sigmund Pelczynski Anna R. Bronstein Kathleen G. Pinch Mrs. Harold J.

Last fortnight, ballots were counted, and the following were officially declared chosen for four-year terms: Marshall Clinton. M.D., '95; Willis G. Gregory, M.D., '82, Ph.G., '86; Myron S. Short. LL.B., '08. Of the three, Mr. Short's will be the only new face in deliberative sessions of the council. Dr. Clinton already has served as an alumni representative, and Dr. Gregory had been an ex-officio member during his tenure as dean of the School of Pharmacy. New Councillor Short began his legal career as the first corporation counsel of the newly incorporated city of Lackawanna. In 1914 hebecame associated with the Buffalo law firm of DeWitt Clinton. In 1921 he became assistant attorney of the Buffalo Savings bank, was elected a trustee in 1930, and became secretary of the bank in 1934. He has served as presi- dent of the Erie County Bar association, and since 1931 as president of the Buffalo V.M.C.A. All three will automatically take places on the Alumni council, as do all alumni members of the University council. Thus the Alumni council enters its fifth year of existence with a membership of 15, of whom six are law alumni, four are medical alumni, one a dental alumnus, one a pharmacy alumnus, one an arts alumnus, one an alumnus of both medicine and pharmacy, one an alumnus of both arts and law. Officers and executive committee members of the Alumni council were to be elected at a meeting to be held later in the month. No chairman of the University council has been chosen to succeed the late A. Glenni Bartholomew, LL.B., '03. Reelected vice chairman was James McCormick Mitchell, LL.B.. '97, and the following were re-elected by the council for new terms: Gen. Louis L. Babcock, Comp- troller George D. Crofts, Charles Diebold, Jr., LL.B., '97 (who also will continue on the Alumni council), Edward Michael and William A. Rogers. The council adopted a balanced budget for 1936-37 with estimated income and disbursements of $1,114,711.28. The figure is approximately $58,000 higher than the 1935-36 budget, which amounted to $1,-056,749.21. The university has not experienced a deficit since the academic year 1931-32. The council also authorized Chancellor Samuel P. Capen to present, at the 90th annual Commencement on June 10, the following degrees and certificates: M.D., 62; M.S. in Medicine, 3; B.S. in Nursing, 3; certificate in nursing. 29; Ph.G., 18; B.S. in Pharmacy, 4; LL.B., 43; D.D.S., 38; certificate in engineering, 2; 8.A., 69; certificate in library science, 6; M.A., 12; Ph.D., 1; B.S.

Thus the university is assured of a continuation of Van Bibber's technique, a modification of the Notre Dame system. Like Van Bibber. Peelle was a Purdue star.

Reason: A rare opportunity for advancement in the teaching profession. Within a few hours, university authon ties were considering 40 appiicants, attracted by the improvements which came during Van Bibber's two year tenure. Such factors were better schedules, better morale, a new eligibility code, medical examinations for athletes, increasing goodwill among alumni, faculty, students and the public, and a promising ball club ready to take the field against the 1936 opponouncement nents. With little hesitation, the powers picked two years Van Bib- James E. Peelle, for NEW COACH at Purdue He also starred NEXT BULLETIN IN FALL This is the last issue of the Bulletin until October.

Elected a trustee of the General Alumni association was Mrs. Hill. If interest, rather than numbers, is an index, the first annual Back-to-College day of the Arts and Sciences Alumni association was a success. Before a small but select group of graduates on June 6, Dr. L. Grant Hector, professor of physics, delivered a lucid and surprising dissertation on "Television Around the Corner" and Dr. Julius W. Pratt, professor of history, lectured on "The United States and World Peace." The quality of interest was proved by the round-table discussions which followed each presentation. They lasted almost as long as the lectures themselves. Members spent the balance of the afternoon strolling campus walks, visiting new buildings, engaging in tennis, shuffle-board, pool, billiards, table-tennis and bridge. Then they and many more beside attended the 16th annual banquet where they heard garet Chancellor Samuel P. Capen, Dean Julian Park, sound experts from the Buffalo Broadcasting corporation, and a "VoxPop" for college graduates by Paul D. Williams, LL.B.. '32, and J. Keith Noye, 8.5., '27. Adopted without opposition was the new constitution which provides membership for library science certificate holders, analytical chemists and other groups not previously eligible for membership. New officers elected were: President, Everett H. F.inchbaugh. 8.5., '29; vice president, Marion L. Carroll, 8.A., '28; secretary, Margaret L. Holmes, 8.A., '29; treasurer, Mr. Noye. Arthur I. Goldberg, 8.A., '31, was elected a trustee of the GAA. To the banquet of the Business Administration Alumni association came former Dean Clarence S. Marsh, who had spoken earlier in the day at the university's 90th Commencement. Others on the program were Chancellor Samuel P. Capen, present Dean Ralph C. Epstein, Assistant Dean Shaw Livermore, Arts Dean Julian Park, new Head Football Coach Jim Peelle, GAA President Harry I. Good, B.S. in Bus. Ad., '27; Ed. M., '31 and Alumni Secretary William G.

Brightly colored map-tacks show distribution of alumni throughout 46 states of the Union, and still brighter ones show locations of branch clubs. Seventh and newest branch club tack was added to the map a fortnight ago, representing the new University of Buffalo Allegheny Region Alumni association, which was organized May 29 in Olean. N. Y. Fifty graduates gathered to hear Shaw Livermore, assistant dean of the School of Business Administration and secretary of the Athletic council, and to view motion pictures of campus activities, narrated by Alumni Secretary William G. Cook, 8.5., '27. From as far north as Franklinville, as far west as Randolph, as far east as Andover. and as far south as Smethport, Pa., they journeyed at the call of Arthur L. Runals, M.D., '11, of Olean. When the banquet was over they had adopted a constitution, elected officers, decided to hold a gathering this Fall. On a wall in First officers of the association are: President, Dr. Runals; vice president, Howard W. Smith, D.D.S., '31, Cuba; secretary, Arthur H. Hennage, Ph.G., '98, Bradford; treasurer, Chester M. Bliss, LL.B., '19, Bolivar; executive committee, Halley W. Hammond, M.D., '04, Franklinville; Frederick E. McCarty, M.D., '15, Wellsville; Dr. William A. Ostrander, Ph.G., '95, Smethport, Pa. New president of the Syracuse, N. V., Alumni club, is Wilfred F. Kerwin, LL.B., '28. He was elected to succeed Clayton A. Sayers, D.D.S., '04, at the club's final meeting of the year late in May. Highlights of the meeting were addresses by Dean Edward W. Koch of the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry, and Art Powell, who has just concluded 21 years of service on the university's coaching staff. Guests of the club were the captains and coaches of Syracuse's high school basketball teams, eager to view the huge championship trophy which all had striven for during the past season (Bulletin, December, 1935). Winner of the cup, provided by the club and named in honor of Coach Powell, was the Syracuse Vocational high school team. To the high school auditorium morning after the dinner went Art Powell and President Kerwin to award the cup. So big is the school's present enrollment (2,200) that the speakers had to face two assemblies, present the cup twice. The Syracuse Alumni club will have these officers for 1936-37, in addition to Lawyer Kerwin: Vice president, Frank R. McCollum, D.D.S., '21, of Solvay; secretary, C. Arthur Bond, Ph.G., '18, Syracuse, (re-elected); treasurer, Gerald A. Gleason, LL.B.. '25, Syracuse. large map of the DR. LEWIS A. FROMAN A fourth deanship affected by recent action of the University council was that of the Evening session. To the executive office of that big and healthy division was appointed last month Dr. Lewis A. Froman, who has been acting dean since January, 1935. Youngest (age 29) of the university's deans. Dr. Froman was graduated from the University of Missouri in 1927. At the age of 20 he was supervisor of several chain stores in the Iron Mountain state, and at the age of 22 he started graduate work at Cornell university, receiving his doctor of philosophy degree in economics in 1931. Dr. Froman came to the University of Buffalo as instructor in economics in the same year. He became assistant dean of the Evening session in 1932, and carried the work of that office from December, 1933, when Dean Clarence S. Marsh left for Washington, until his appointment as acting dean. As the academic year neared its end. three more executive appointments were announced. Named associate dean of the School of Dentistry, and placed in direct charge of the professional training of dental students was Russell W. Groh, D.D.S., '18. Rising from instructor to professor in the period 1920 to 1929, Dr. Groh became acting chairman of the faculty upon the death of Dean Daniel EL Squire last July. Appointed assistant dean of the School of Medicine was Dr. Elmer H. Heath, assistant professor of medicine. Dr. Heath is a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Harvard Medical school, and has been a member of the Buffalo faculty since 1930. Both appointments were consequences of the merging recently of the administration of the two divisions, under the deanship of Dr. Edward W. Koch (Bulletin. May). Third appointment was more in the na- ture of a promotion. Since its creation a year ago, the new School of Social Work has had no dean, but was operated by Dr. Niles Carpenter as director. Dr. Carpenter now becomes dean of the school.

They were 1. Merging of the administration of the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry, with Dr. Edward \V. Koch as dean of : the two divisions. 2. Appointment of Francis M. Shea, now general counsel of the Puerto Rico Reconstruction administration as dean of the Law School, to succeed Dr. Carlos C. Alden, who has retired (Bulletin, April). 3. Appointment of Dr. A. Bertram Lemon, Ph.G., '13, as dean of the School of Pharmacy, to succeed Dr. Willis G. Gregory, M.D., '82, Ph.G., '86, who will retire at the end of this academic year (see page 3). 4. Official creation of a Division of Nursing. DENTISTRY Parallel lines meet only in infinity. That the late Dean Daniel H. Squire. D.D.S., '93, brought the parallel lines of medical and dental education into convergence at Buffalo is now history. Appointment of Dr. Koch as administrative head of the two divisions brings the two sister sciences into still closer rapport. Dean Koch will act largely as administrator, co-ordinator and business executive of the two divisions. Directly responsible for the professional training of dental students will be an associate dean of the school, who has not yet been appointed. An assistant dean of the Medical school also will be chosen soon. Dr. Koch has been connected with the Medical school for 18 years, the last six of which he has been dean. A graduate of Indiana university and Rush Medical college, he became professor of pharmacology at Buffalo in 1918, and was named secretary of the school the same year. In 1928 he was appointed acting dean, and became dean in 1930. He is a fellow of the American Medical association and the Indiana Medical academy. LAW A new rule of the L'niversity council provides that administrative officers shall relinquish their administrative positions upon reaching the age of 70. Thus the retirement of Dr. Alden this year becomes automatic. The university will not be deprived of his services, however, since he has consented to serve as a full-time professor of law. To fill the vacated deanship, the council chose a graduate of the Harvard Lawschool. A native of Manchester, N. H., Mr. Shea was graduated from Dartmouth college in 1925, and won his law degree at Cambridge in 1928. He spent another year there in post-graduate work, and in the Summer of 1929 became associated with the Buffalo law firm of Slee, O'Brian, Hellings and Ulsh. In 1933 he organized and became head of the Opinion bureau of the legal division of the United States Department of Agriculture. Since 1935 he has been directing a legal staff of 40 lawyers as general counsel of the Puerto Rico Reconstruction PHARMACY DEAX friends consider it a just reward administration. PHARMACY To his job of dean of the university's second oldest division, Dr. Lemon brings MEDICO-DENTAL DEAX He further disproves an old axiom more than 20 years of experience and service. Following his graduation in 1913, he studied at the Brooklyn College of Pharmacy where he won the degree of doctor of pharmacy. In 1916 he was back at Buffalo as assistant in the department of materia medica in the Pharmarv school, becoming instructor in 1917 and professor in 1921. He has been secretary of the school for 17 years and in that capacity has served as administrative head of the school in Dr. Gregory's absence. In 1933 he was elected to the University council. Most alumni will remember him for his years of service as secretary of the General Alumni association, and for his many labors in the field of student activities. For these offerings as well as his academic contributions to the university, his friends consider the deanship a just reward. NURSING For several years the university has co-operated experimentally with the Buffalo City hospital in the training of nurses. It has offered scientific and (Continued on page 2) �2 UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Former Dean to Return Dr. Clarence S. Marsh, former dean of the School of Business Administration, former dean of the Evening session, and former director of the Summer session, now associate director of the American Council on Education in Washington, will be the main speaker at the university's 90th annual Commencement exercises June 10 in Buffalo's Elmwood Music hall. Coming to Buffalo in 1923, "Larry" Marsh founded the Evening session, and during his ten-year tenure built its enrollment to a figure in excess of the total registration for all the remaining divisions of the university combined. For his activities in the Kiwanis club, the Buffalo club, the Scribblers, and the board of trustees of the Buffalo seminary, he is well known to many Buffalo citizens. For his hearty personality, his stimulating influence on student activities and his efficient administration of three university divisions, he is equally well known to hundreds of alumni. Alumni News Brevities Activities of Buffalo alumni during recent zveeks made the following news: Restored to the chairmanship of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit company's board of directors by edict of a federal judge, was ARTHUR A.

Gregory, M.D., '82, Ph.G., '86, will retire from the deanship of the School of Pharmacy at the end of this academic year. This fact was revealed following the gala banquet last month which marked his completion of 50 years of service to the university, as well as the Golden Jubilee of the school. Dean of pharmacy deans in the United States, and possibly dean of all deans, Alumnus Gregory passed his 79th birthday three days before the celebration. Though still an active person, he has been ailing intermittently for the last few years, and has chosen this year to vacate the deanship in favor of a younger man (see page 1). That he will retain his connection with the school as a member of the faculty will please his many friends. The fact that the Pharmacy school was marking its own 50th aniversary became a secondary consideration at last month's banquet. In Dr. Gregory the 400-odd guests, one of whom* sped by airplane from Ryan, Okla., saw- the exemplification of all that the school has stood for in its existence. In him, too, they saw the exemplification of lifelong service to the cause of higher education. In a letter of congratulation the General Alumni association said: "(The alumni) are proud of one whose loyalty and devotion to his Alma Mater have set an example for all to emulate. In you they see the embodiment of all that they could wish to be. You, sir, are the typical, the composite alumnus of the University of Buffalo." Many were the tributes paid to the beloved veteran. Dr. Harlan H. Homer, assistant commissioner for higher education of New York state; Dr. Robert P. Fischelis, past president of the Amer- Branch Club Meetings ALUMNI GIFT Califoniimis helped pay the painter ican Pharmaceutical association and secretary and chief chemist of the New Jersey State Board of Pharmacy; George W. Mather, secretary of the New York State Board of Pharmacy, and Chancellor Samuel P. Capen, who acted as toastmaster, made reams of glowing copy for newspaper reporters. So high was the stack of telegrams and letters from far and near, that the toastmaster was unable to read any, but handed them to Dr. Gregory for his private perusal. But possibly the greatest tribute of all was the presentation to the university by the alumni of a brand new oil portrait of the guest of honor. Paid for by alumni gifts coming from as far as California, and painted by famed Portraitist George Laurence Nelson, the canvas will hang in Foster hall as a permanent memorial to a great alumnus. *Dr. W.

Final plans for a "Back - to - Col- lege" day, recently announced by President Louis J. Farris, 8.5., '26, M.D., '30. provide for a nearly continuous schedule of events from 11 A.M. to midnight on Saturday, June 6. Alumni "institutes" and "postcollege" courses are becoming inDR. FARRIS creasingly popular at other institutions. Buffalo alumni, not to be regarded as backward in the face of a definite trend, are expected to respond in large numbers to this year's experiment. At 11 A.M. on June 6 in Norton hall, Dr. L. Grant Hector, professor of phys- ics and well-known expert on radio, will give a "popular"' lecture and demonstration on the subject, "Television Just Around the Corner." Highly regarded Niagara lucidity on the frontier for the of his technical addresses, Dr. Hector's of modern science have demonstrations been well received. An informal luncheon will follow, after which Dr. Julius W.

His presentation will be followed by a round-table on international affairs. At 3 o'clock the entire amusement facilities of Norton hall will be turned over to the alumni. Director Robert Parke is planning tournaments in tabletennis, deck tennis, shuffle-board, pool, billiards and bridge. The campus tennis courts also will be reserved exclusively for returning graduates. Norton hall has modern, comfortable — June Meetings showers for both men and women.

Widely known as one of Manhattan's outstanding portraitists, for his fidelity to subject and for his excellence of detail, George Laurence Nelson a few weeks ago began work on an oil of one of the University of Buffalo's grand old men. The subject: Pharmacy's Dean Willis G. Gregory, M.D.? '82, Ph.G., '86. The object: Preparation of a gift to the university as an alumni tribute to Dr. Gregory's life work, on his and his division's Golden Jubilee celebration, April 22. To Buffalo Consistory on that evening will go a large proportion of the 1428 Pharmacy school graduates, to join with faculty members,students and friends of the university in honoring Dr. Gregory. Among them will be Dr. Robert P. Fischelis,former president of the American Pharmaceutical association and former secretary of the New Jersey State Board of Pharmacy, and Dr. Harlan H. Homer, assistant commissioner for professional and higher education of New York state, who will be the evening's principal speakers. Present, too, will be Chancellor Samuel P. Capen, who will act as toastmaster; Eli H. Long, M.D., '82, and Albert P. Sy, Ph.D., '08, who will present the portrait in the name of the alumni; Dr. A. Bertram Lemon, Ph.G., '13, general chairman of the celebration, and scores of townsmen come to shake the hand of their friend and neighbor. Banquets are habitually late in getting under way. Therefore the committee in charge announces that the period for renewing old acquaintances will be from 6:30 to 7:30 P. M. Promptly at the end of that hour, the banquet will commence. The Pharmacy Alumni association Joint Celebration 1936 Jubilee was founded. university, now in its 90th year, celebrate the 50th birthday of its second oldest division, and the completion of a half-century in its service by America's "dean of pharmacy deans." Willis G. Gregory was born April 19, 1857,in Theresa,N. Y. He removed to Amsterdam in 1860,and to Buffalo in 1863. In 1882 he was a graduate of the Schoolof Medicine, and four years later a graduate of the new School of Pharmacy. He joined its faculty the same year, and became its dean in 1890. During his long and active career he has held many important local and national positions. He has been at various times a member of the New York State Board of Pharmacy, the United States Pharmacopoeial Revision committee,and the National Pharmacy Syllabus committee. He served 33 years as president of the New York State Pharmaceutical which teaches that science Thus will the VETERAN OF 50 YEARS His lineaments will appear in oil usually holds its annual election banquet in June. President John Hobbie,'33, announces that this year's meeting will be held in conjunction with the jubileebanquet. On the two days following the dinner, the school will hold open house for the general public. This annual event has become progressively more elaborate and each succeeding year's attendance has increased. During the afternoon and evening hours, artistic, informative displays and demonstrations will be found in virtually every one of Foster hall's classrooms and laboratories. Studentsand faculty members will act as guides and demonstrators. Visitors may peer through microscopes at deadlybacteria,watch the manufactureof toothpaste or witness the cautious efficiency with which modern drug clerks fill prescriptions. A special feature of this year's open house will be an exhibit showing the astounding changes which have come over the science of pharmacy since the school association. He has been a delegate to the United States Pharmacopoeial convention for five consecutive terms covering a period of over 40 years, which is believed to be a record. He is also a member of the American Association of University Professors,the Metric Association of America, the Buffalo Torch club, the Buffalo Mercer club, the University council and the Alumni council. Perhaps the most interesting of his former memberships is that in the Buffalo Lawn Bowling club, composed of men who, like Dr. Gregory, enjoyed their skittles when golf was less popular. One of Alumnus Gregory's most engrossing hobbies is the acquisition of old mortars and pestles. He now has a collection of more than 50. The most venerable of them antedates the Revolution by half a century, was made of wood by American pioneers, and was preserved by a New England family. �2 The Faculty on Review Recent faculty and administration news included the following: DEAN RALPH C. EPSTEIN of the School of Business Administration was called to New York city for a meeting of the Joint Committeeon Income Tax Statistics, an agency appointed by the American Economic association and the American Statistical association, which will advise the U. S. Bureau of Internal Revenue on the revision of income tax forms and handling of income tax statistics. DR. RUFUS R. HUMPHREY, associate professor of anatomy in the School of Medicine announced success in reversal of sex of salamanders. The disclosure was heralded as a signal advance in anatomical and biological science. DR. JULIUS W. PRATT, professor of history, accepted a one-semester appointment at the University of Rochester as a pinch-hitter for Dexter Perkins, chairman of the U. of R. history department. Dr. Pratt is acknowledged the outstanding American authority on the expansion periods of U. S. history. Later this year he goes to Johns Hopkins university to lecture on that subject. PROFESSOR RUDOLF CARNAP of the University of Prague in Czechoslovakia, was on campus to lecture on "The Unity of Science" under Fenton foundation sponsorship. PHILIP HALPERN, LL.B., '23, professor of the law of torts, crimes and real property in the Law school, was a guest lecturer at the Yale Law school. RUSSELL W. GROH, D.D.S., '18, acting chairman of the Dental faculty, went to Louisville. Ky., to read a paper before the American Association of Dental Schools. DR. WILLARD L. THORP, director of economic research of Dun & Bradstreet, Inc., and former chairman of the NRA advisory council, came to Buffalo to lecture on campus as an associate member of the faculty of the Schoolof Business Administration. Don't Throw Them Away Members of the Class of 1935 are informed that the free Norton union membership cards which were presented to them upon graduation, are good during the current semester and this Summer, and will be so honored regardless of the date of issue. Director Robert Parke makes this announcement to overcome confusion existing in the minds of some recipients. All alumni members are urged to make use of their membership cards.

Tons of snow fell, choking streets, snarling traffic, bringing business almost to a standstill. While citizens were condemning municipal officials' frantic, ill-organized efforts to restore some kind of order, members of the campus community were congratulating themselves on the existence of the university's maintenance staff. No sooner had snow begun to threaten the two miles of campus roadway than Maintenance Superintendent Conrad J. Leupold declared an emergency. With quiet efficiency his crews embarked on trucks and tractors. Day and night they kept going through the height of the storm in a supreme effort to keep roads passable. As drifts piled higher and higher and city streets became dotted with stalled trolley cars, automobiles and busses,Leupold's gangs plugged stubbornly along. Plows threw the snow in piles higher than a man's head. Then trucks were pressed into action to haul the piles away, making room for more. Meanwhile, students and faculty members were getting into difficulties. So long as they clung to the roads, their progress was reasonably easy. But more than one, blinded or careless, left the road to become wedged in relentless drifts. Then the campus crew broke out tow-chains, earned the gratitude of scores by hauling luckless cars back to safety. When the emergencyhad passed, the maintenance force had definitely triumphed. At no time had it been impossible for machines to get through any portion of the campus road net. Known as "Chancellor"Leupold to many generations of students,the chief of the grounds and buildings staff has been a university employe for 14 years. He began as a janitor in the Law school building in 1921. In 1922 he took charge of the two buildings then in use on campus Foster and Sciencehalls. Today his headquarters is in the new $45,000 Service building on Winspear avenue. He supervises the activities of 17 men and 28 women, who wash, scrub, paint and repair. Carpentry, machine work, minor electrical and plumbing repairs are all within his ken. The campus police force is under his jurisdiction. So is the campus delivery service, which requires an official receiving department. Grounds maintenance Js one of the heaviest jobs. Of the university's 160 acres of campus, 90 acres are now seeded and graded. These must be mown and watered continually. Last year the total mowing job reached 6,750 acres. The sprinkler system uses 12,500 gallons of water an hour in the summer season. All this winter and summer upkeep would not be possible without equipment. The present "rolling stock" includes two trucks, two tractors, two mower tractors, two small power-driven mowers, two large tractor-drawn mowers, and nine double sprinklers each 30 feet long, plus the usual component of small sprinklers, hand mowers, brooms and brushes. — CAMPUS UPKEEP Left upper, a plowman attacks one of the huge snow piles; lower, the nczv Sen-ice building; right.

Home Concert Coming The 15th annual Home concert and dance of the combined Men's and Women's Glee clubs will be held Friday. April 24, in Norton hall. Traditional as one of the student body's outstanding events, the concert this year climaxes an unusually active season. Appearances before clubs, societies, alumni groupsand on the radio have been on the musical calendar. Onlyrecently the two organizations sang before the musicloving public of Buffalo in a special appearance with the Buffalo Philharmonic orchestra. Next month the Women's Glee club goes to Keuka college to compete in a contest sponsored by the New York State Federation of Music. Two orchestras have been engaged for the post-concert dance,during which Cap & Gown, women's senior honorary society, will "tap" members for 1936-37. Many alumni return every year for this event. Tickets may be procured by writing or telephoning Norton hall. Alumni Club to Meet An open meeting of the Alumni club will be held Monday evening. April 27. in its Hotel Lenox headquarters, it is announced by President John W. Greenwood, 8.5., '21. A well-known speaker will be on the program. Alumni interested in learning what the future policies of the club will be are urged to attend. Plans are now being completed for a theater party which the club will sponsor in May. Proceeds will go toward a student aid fund which the organization is founding. law's dean alden A surprise to alumni and friends of the university was the recent rumor that Dr. Carlos C. Alden will retire this year as dean of the Schoolof Law. No official announcement has yet been made by the university administration,but newspaper reports declare that the appointment of a successor is imminent. That the present part-time faculty system will be changed to a full-time system is regarded as a foregone conclusion. Appointment of full-time teachers would mean added expense but it is understood that the Law school, one of the university's strongest divisions, is financially ready. One advantage of the full-time plan would be the position in which it would put the school to apply for first-class law school rating. Though satisfying the requirements of the American Association of Universities in all other respects, the present system has prevented the attainment of such rank until now. PAYMENTS ON 1929 ENDOWMENT PLEDGES are allowable deductions from INCOME TAX Sendchecks to the Treasurer's Office, Townsend Hall Council Nominations Nominations are being made this month for the annual election of alumni representatives to the University council. Wan.ing notices have been sent by Council Secretary Philip Becker Goetz to all degree-holders, stating that nominating petitions should be signed by ten or more alumni, and must be in the hands of university authorities not later than May 1. Such petitions must be accompanied by biographic:.! sketches and photographs of the nominees. During the month of May, ballots will be sent to the graduates. They must be filled in and returned by June 1. Three alumni representatives are chosen each year to serve four-year terms. This complies with the charter statute requiring that one-third of the University council, or 12 persons, shall be elected by the alumni. Incumbents may succeed themselves. Nominees need not be residents of Buffalo, nor need they be graduates. Either men or women may serve. Terms expiring this year are those of A. Glenni Bartholomew,LL.B., '03 (deceased) ; Marshall Clinton, M.D., '95, member of the committee on general administration, and ?.eon J.

Schoellkopf Named Buffalo's Man of the Year The name of Schoellkopf has for years been an important one on the Niagara frontier. Niagara power, industrial chemistry, leather production, real estate, investment securities and philanthrophy have felt the influenceof a family which settled in the area during the latter half of the 19th century. Not because he is president of the Niagara-Hudson Power company, a director of several banks and a leader in Buffalo's social life, but because of his "wise and unselfishleadership in the work of conserving the bodies and spirits" of his fellow citizens in a great national emergency, the Chancellor's medal was presented on University day to Alfred he served without remuneration until pressure of business affairs necessitated his resignation last October.At that time his work was publicly praised by both President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Gov. Herbert H. Lehman. He was the first chairman of the Buffalo ERB, and has served as president of the Buffalo Musical foundation, trustee, director and executive committee member of the Buffalo Generalhospital, and director of the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences. Forty-three diplomas and certificates state legislature, were presented at the exercises by Chancellor SamuelP. Capen. The list included one degree of doctor of philosophy, one doctor of education,two masters of arts, three masters of education,nine bachelors of arts, five bachelors of science in business administration, eight bachelors of science in education,seven bachelors of science in nursing, five certificates in library science,one certificate in social work and one diploma in business administration. The program also included an address on "Democracy's Challenge to the Pioneer," by Alan C. Valentine, new president of the University of Rochester. Hugo Schoellkopf. Tenth person to receive the award, Mr. Schoellkopf thus becomes Buffalo's Man of the Year. Citizen Schoellkopf was born in Buffalo July 12, 1893. It was his grandfather, Jacob F. Schoellkopf, who first utilized successfully the power generated at Niagara Falls. Today the grandson finds himself one of the country's leading electric power executives. He is also president of the Niagara Sprayer & Chemical Co., Inc., and a director of the Manufacturers & Traders Trust company,the Marine Midland Trust company of NewYork and the New York Light & Power corporation. But the civic enterprise which was recognized at the university's 36th midyear convocation was in the field of public social service. Very early in the depression Mr. Schoellkopf bent his efforts toward the alleviation of a crisis. As chairman of the Mayor's Committee on Unemployment he worked for co-ordination of public and private welfare efforts, the raising of money for work the agencies could not perform, the saving of a rapidly declining public morale. In 1933 he was appointed to the New York State TERA, and within a short time became its chairman.

Alumnus Considine was born in Watkins Glen, N. Y., in 1891. Following his preliminary education he enrolled in the University of Buffalo and was graduated from the Schoolof Pharmacy in 1912. He then entered the Miller-Strong Drug company's store in Niagara Falls, and subsequently became its manager. In 1919 he joined the United Drug companyas sales representative. Later he became head of its hospital department and until recently was general manager of the department of medicines. In his present capacity he is in constant touch with the wholesale and retail drug trade, since his company is closely allied with the national Rexall chain, which is represented in Buffalo. He was the main speaker at the Pharmacy Alumni association's annual banquet in 1934,and at that time made a profound impression on his hearers. Reservations Must Be Made in Advance Speaker McKowne has been a part of the Statler organization since 1913. Born in Brockport, N. Y., October 30, 1889,he was schooled at Batavia, N. Y., and Smith Falls, Ont. Following graduation from the Law school in 1910 and his admission to the bar, he served on the Buffalo corporation counsel's staff nearlv three years. In 1913 he became assistant to the late E. M. Statler, founderof the hotel chain. In 1917 he was elected assistant secretary of the company, and in 1919,secretary and treasurer. Upon Mr. Statler's death in 1928,Mr. McKowne became president. During the World war he served on the staff of Maj. Gen. E. F. Glenn,commander of the 83rd division, and followingoverseas service,was created a Chevalier of the French Legion of Honor. Mr. McKowne is a director of the Hotels Statler Co.,Inc., the Marine Midland Trust Co., the Central Mercantile association of New York and the Broadway and 34th Street association,as well as of many other hotel associations. .

The exhibition will be open to the public daily except Saturdays and Sundays from 3 to 5 P. M. through February 22. Among the other important English Bibles included in the display are the Matthew's Bible of 1537 and the First Great Bible of 1539,as well as the First Bishop's Bible of 1568 and all issues of the King James Bible (1611). "This exhibition offers a rare opportunity to every lover of Bibles and of rare and beautiful books to see at one time all of the most important English Bibles as they were printed from 1535 to 1935,"according to Professor Charles D. Abbott, director of university libraries. "It constitutes not only a stimulating survey of four centuries of fine printing, showing as it does the most superior craftsmanship of each period, but also a pictorial history of the book that has been most influential in shaping the lives of the English-speaking nations for the last 400 years. "Since last year marked the 400th anniversary of the appearance of the first complete English Bible, it would seem not inappropriate to begin a new century of Bible production by surveying what four centuries of the past have been able to accomplish. This exhibition is designed to show the most historically and esthetically important Bibles, all in English (with one notable exception) and all influential either in settling the text or in showing what good craftsmanship can make of a book so physically formidable. Unfortunately there are some breaks in the list. Most to be regretted are the omissions of Taverner's Bible f 1539). the Genevan New Testament (1557). Tomson's revision of the New Testament (1576), the first Cambridge Bible (1629). the great Cambridge folio (1638), the first Oxford folio (1680), and the Aitken New Testament (1777). A limited number of catalogues will be published for the use of those attending the exhibition, Mr. Abbott states, copies of which may be purchased. Council Seeks 10th Medal Winner New Rochester President Alan Chester Valentine, newly ap- pointed president of the University of Rochester,will be the principal speaker at the 36th annual University day convocation and mid-year commencement exercises to be held in Edmund Hayes hall on February 22. So far President Valentine's subject has not yet been announced,but it is expected that he will speak on some subject o f cultural and educational importance, according to Chancellor SamuelP. Capen. Until his appointment at Rochester on November 15, President Valentine was master of Pierson college at Yale university. While plans for the ceremonies were being made, secret sessions were being held this month by members of the University council, to choose the tenth recipient of the Chancellor's medal, and Buffalo's Man (or Woman) of the Year. Founded by the late Chancellor Charles P. Norton, the award is given to some to he Mid-Year Speaker person who has brought honor and distinction to the city of Buffalo. It is the highest accolade within the university's power. Unlike most other institutions of learning, it grants no honorary degrees. Others who have received the Chancellor's medal are: The late Rt. Rev. Charles H. Brent, bishop, author, internationalist; the late Walter Platt Cooke, international lawyer; Frank B. Baird, father of Buffalo's Peace bridge; the late John J. Albright, donor of Buffalo's Albright Art gallery; Chauncey J. Hamlin, LL.B., '05, founder of the Buffalo Science museum; Dr. Frank A. Hartman, endocrinologist and discoverer of cortin; Dr. F. Parke Lewis, leader in the prevention of infant blindness; former Supreme Court Justice Daniel J. Kenefick, father of Buffalo's new city charter; Katharine Cornell, actress. Not until the very moment of presentation is the identity of the recipient revealed. Farris Urges Arts Re-organization Possibility of a horizontal revamping of the Arts and SciencesAlumni association is seen in the appointment of Dr. John T. Horton, 8.A., '26, as chairman of a constitution revision committee. That the new constitution probably will be ready for approval at the June reunion is anticipated by President Louis G. Farris, 8.5., '26, M.D., '30. "There are scores of alumni who are interested in the university and its alumni affairs, but for whom there is no official alumni organization," is Dr. Farris' comment. "A notable example is the group of library science certificate holders. There is at present no library science alumni association,and as I understand the General association's by-laws there can be none until the library science curriculum is given the status of a school or division. "The holders of the old analytical chemistry degree, the engineering certificate, and many others, are in the same situation. "These alumni have come through or have been so close to the College of Arts and Sciences that their natural place should be in the college's alumni association. Bachelors of science in medicine, though they also hold the M. D. degree, also should be eligible for membership. And we certainly can claim a hold on the education and social work alumni, or at least those of them who completed their courses before their respective schools were formally established." Dr. Farris proposes an Arts association made up of sections representing these various groups. Each section would have its own officers and could conduct programs for its own membership. But representatives of the sections would comprise the governing body of the Arts association,which in turn would maintain a program for all who had been students in the college. '"Our purpose," says the president, "is to maintain the integrity of the Arts and SciencesAlumni association,and at the same time give recognition to what some have called the 'orphan' groups in our alumni body." Club Plans Surprises A gala party for Buffalo's male graduwill be held in March by the University of Buffalo Alumni club, it is announced by President Earl L. Eaton, M.D., '17. Details are not completed, but Dr. Eaton warns members and friends to be on the lookout for further announcements. "There will be prizes and surprises," he says. ates �3 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN Southern Tier Party To Binghamton, N. y.'s Hotel Bennett will journey alumni of six counties for the University day dinner-dance of the Southern Tier Alumni association on February 22. According to plans announced by President Ralph J. McMahon,M.D., '21, the party will start at 8 P. M. The event will be conducted in cabaret style, with dancing between courses and a gala floor show. DR. MCMAHOX A special feature of the party will be the showing of moving pictures which will be provided by the university. They will show recent activities on the campus and giveold grads a glimpse of the institution's building developments. The following counties are included in the branch club's territory: Broome, Chenango, Cortland, Delaware, Otsego and Tioga. The Southern Tier Alumni association was organized 11 months ago. How Your Alumni Groups Operate Alumni Set-up No Puzzle To the minds of many alumni still occurs the question, "What are the General Alumni association and the Alumni council ?" With a view to setting bewildered graduates straight on their place in the organization picture, the following explanation is offered. A glance at the diagram below will show that the more than 8100 living alumni of the university comprise the graduate body, distributed throughout 45 states and the District of Columbia, and 14 foreign countries and territories. These fall into natural groups, known as the divisional alumni associations. There are eight of these, including the University of Buffalo Alumnae, which two years ago obtained divisional status. Each divisional alumni association carries on a program of interest to its own members. Thus the Medical and Dental associations hold annual clinics, the Business Administration association holds business round-tables,and so on. Each group, of course, has its own officers. Each divisional association is represented by four delegates who sit on the board of trustees of the General Alumni association. This body, therefore, repre- UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALOALUMNI ORGANIZATIONCHART to Those Who Read This the entire graduate body, and its program is set up to appeal to all alumni. An example is the 21st anniversary dinner to be held this month on University day (see page 1). Deprived of their alumni office by the drop in income resulting from the depression, the various alumni associations about three years ago petitioned the University council to set up such an office and to undertake its financing. The problem was referred to the council's committee on alumni affairs. The final plan as approved by the council was that an office should be established,its expenses to be paid out of university funds, and its management to be under supervision of the committee on alumni affairs. The committee was then reorganized as the Alumni council, with its own officersand by-laws. Those by-laws provide that all alumni who are members of the University council, simultaneously serve as members of the Alumni council. The graduate body elects its own representatives annually to the University council, thereby having a voice in the management of the Alumni office. The alumni secretary, therefore, is an appointee of the graduate body's own council representatives. In order that the Alumni office's facilities might be made available to the organized alumni, the same individual also was elected by the GAA trustees as secretary of the association. The functions of the GAA and the Alumni council are similar but not the same. Both are interested in alumni activity, individual loyalty and organization progress, but the council acts largely as a go-between for the alumni and the university, while the association acts as the spiritual parent and co-ordinator of what would otherwise be an assortment of unrelated groups. Another form of alumni organization is represented by the branch clubs, which are springing up in communities outside the city of Buffalo. Though removed from the university's immediate sphere, they display a keen understanding of its problems, and many of them already have found ways to serve in matters academic, athletic and financial. Though chartered by the General Alumni association,the branch clubs at present have no representation on its board of trustees. A move is under way to make such representation possible. sents �4 ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN PLEASE NOTIFY US OF CHANGE OF ADDRESS THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI COUNCIL BULLETIN Published monthly except July, August and September, by the University of Buffalo at 3435 Main Street, Buffalo, N.
