Just as we are interested in each of you and your achievements, we believe that you are interested in some of the past and present happenings at your Alma Mater. This letter will present some of these events. Dean Giltner Resigns The retirement of Dean Giltner, July 1, 1948—as Dean Emeritus—following a year of terminal lea/e, was the major change in the school. Dr. H. J. Stafseth was appointed acting head of the De partment of Bacteriology and Public Health for the period of July 1, 1947 to April 1, 1948 when he was made head of the department. On these same dates I was made acting dean and dean, re spectively. It required two men to fill the shoes formerly filled by Dean Giltner. On July 1, Dr. B. V. Alfredson was appointed head of the Department of Physiology and Pharmacology when Prof. B. B. Roseboom began a one-year terminal leave, prior to retirement after 39 years of service to Michigan State College. At the same time, Dr. E. T. Hallman completed 36 years on the staff of the college and began a terminal leave of one year. Dr. R. A. Runnells, author of the only American textbook on ani mal pathology was transferred July 1, from head of the Department of Anat omy the Department of to head of Animal Pathology. Strong Research Program The school continues to conduct a very active research program in the fields of animal and human disease, with specific to milk and water supplies, attention food bacteriology and sanitation. Indi vidual staff members have earned world wide reputations in the specific areas of In addition to the teaching research. and research programs, Dr. B. J. Killham and Dr. Glen Reed are active in the very worthwhile extension program on the prevention and control of animal disease in Michigan. The present status of Vol. 53, No. 5 these three areas of service to Michigan has developed over the years, therefore a brief look at the history of the School cf Veterinary Medicine may serve to emphasize our heritage. Interest in veterinary education at this institution was manifest at the founding of Michigan State College in 1855. Suc veterinarians following cessively, served on the faculty: In 1881, A. J. Murray, V.S.; 1883, E. A. A. Grange, V.S.; 1897, George A. Waterman, B.S., M.D.C.; and 1907, Leslie M. Hurt, D.V.M. the Dean Bryan The State Legislature in 1907 ap proved a bill providing for the establish ment of a department of veterinary sci ence at MSC, and in 1909, the State Board of Agriculture authorized the first course. In the fall of 1910, Richard P. Lyman. B.S., M.D.V. (Harvard), was appointed Dean of the Division of Veterinary Sci ence and at once undertook the organ ization of the new school. Students were admitted to the freshman and sophomore years of the course for the first time in 1910-11. In 1919, upon the resignation of Dean Lyman, Dr. F. W. Chamberlain, head of T HE R E C O RD ALVIE L. S M I T H, Editor then the Department of Anatomy, became act ing dean and served until the close of the school year, 1923. Dr. Ward Giltner, head of the Department of Bacteriology, was also appointed dean. He served in this capacity until July 1, 1947 leave of when he began a one year absence prior to retirement June 30, 1948. During these years much progress was made in further developing instruc tion in veterinary medicine and research in animal diseases that is so important to the teaching of veterinary students. The growth in the size of our faculty is indicated by the following: 20 staff mem bers in 1924; 23 in 1926; 35 in 1933; 57 in 1938; 63 in 1942; and 72 in 1947. This development of the school is due, in part, to the ever present emphasis on better instruction for the student and, in part, to the greatly increased interest of young- people for an education in veterinary medicine or in medical technology. New Curriculum Established In 1926, the curriculum of medical biology leading to a B.S. degree was established. The name was changed to "Medical Technology," July 1, 1944, at the same time that the name "Division of Veterinary Science" was changed to "School of Veterinary Medicine." Since the inception of these courses, 837 have received their D.V.M. degrees and 240 have earned their B.S. degrees in medical technology. A recent change of vital interest to prospective students is the requirement of two years of pre-veterinary work for the School of Veterinary entry Medicine, beginning Sept. 1949. Thus, the veterinary course now consists of six years of college work. into To each of you, the Alumni of our School, we look for sug'gestions to fur ther improve the work offered at the College. Stop in to see us whenever you can or drop us a line. It is your work and conduct that determines the opinion of the public toward the School of Vet erinary Medicine. In closing, I want you to know that we are proud of your achievements. Dean C. S. Bryan. July, 1948 THOMAS H.

These people are members of the MSC staff, but are made avail able through the cooperative effort of the federal, state and county govern ments. Born in Sanilac county, Baldwin grad uated from Michigan Agricultural Col lege in 1904. Fate took a hand in his life following graduation when he was stricken with infantile paralysis. This farming prevented him from entering as a life work, but caused him to begin his career of service to Michigan agri culture. Through the years, Baldwin has advo cated many well-known farming practices. An alfalfa program which he sponsored almost doubled Michigan's acreage of this soil-building crop from 1919 to 1939. His guidance was of great value to the state's farmers during two World Wars and two farm depressions and his help has aided Michigan in their successful efforts to make the state one of the nation's agricultural leaders. farmers Clinton V.

Holds Important Engineering Posts A member of the executive committee of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers, Dean Miller has served as president of the Michigan chap ters of the ASHVE and the American Society of Engineering Education. He is author of numerous journal and maga zine articles in the field of engineering. Commenting on his appointment, Dean Miller said, "The engineering school at MSC is at the crossroads. It must go ahead on the road which will make it of infinitely greater value to the people of Michigan—by establishing closer service industries. connections with Too, the school must continue to provide first class educational opportunities for students in the field of engineering, and seek to develop a strong graduate de partment for specialization in the more technical and specific fields." the state Three Are Named Dean-Emeritus The State Board also named three for mer Deans to the title of Dean-Emeritus of their respective schools: They are: Dean Henry B. Dirks, of the School of Engineering; Dr. Ward Giltner, School of Veterinary Medicine; and Dr. E. A. Bessey, School of Graduate Studies. THE A F F A I RS OF S T A TE SUMMER SCHOOL Mid-June saw a mass exodus of stu dents from the MSC campus, but a week later—by June 21, some were returning for the summer grind. When official registration for the six and eleven week terms closed, 4,508 had signed up for summer courses. This figure was to be augmented, how ever, by more than 500 students attend ing special workshops being held during the first nine weeks of the summer. in These workshops were developed response to demand from teachers, guid ance workers and administrators for practical help and assistance in solving instructional problems. They include special courses in state and local govern and mental evaluation, guidance, home and family living and communica tion, child development, and a workshop for supervising teachers of secondary education practice activities, measurement teachers. teacher special End of the Year The regular 1947-48 college year went out with a big splash. Underdog Wilbur "Buzz" Hart, Jack son, pulled the surprise of the year in defeating John Cox, Buffalo, N. Y., for the senior class president in all-college elections. George Smith, Wayne football star, was elected junior class president, and Robert Klein, Detroit, won the sopho more class executive post. A few days later, James Cawood, Lansing junior, was elected the 1948-49 Student Council president, succeeding Jerry Warren. violation was Record Vote Recorded The election was one of the most lively in recent history, and a record vote of 5,584 was recorded.

TH E R E C O RD Building Program The $5,210,198 appropriation to Michi gan State College contained in the capi tal outlay bill passed by the Michigan Legislature May 20 will mean rapid completion of all the buildings now un der construction on the campus. "This appropriation puts us over the top. All the buildings—natural science, physics, sewage and power plants, elec taken care of trical engineering—are and will be completed as rapidly as possible," said Karl H. McDonel, State Board of Agriculture secretary. The structures now are in various work stages, with anticipated completion dates as follows: electrical engineering, Jan. 1948; physics and mathematics, Sept. 1949; natural science, Sept. 1949; power plant, Sept. 1948; and sewage plant, being built on a 50-50 basis with the city of East Lansing, late 1948. "The State Legislature has made it possible," said Secretary McDonel, "for Michigan State College increase to in educating its effectiveness greatly the young people of Michigan. These buildings were desperately needed. They move the college a long step forward in its physical growth." IT'S ALL SMILES after winning national contest for Bonnie Atwell, senior in journalism at MSC. Miss Atwell was named as one of three first place win ners in a national advertising contest conducted by Gamma Alpha Chi, national advertising sorority. She was enter tained for a week in New York, plus getting three job interviews with top flight fashion agencies.

She reigned over the June Dairy Month festivities in Michigan. Other events, such as the Water Car nival, Alumni Day and Commencement, definitely pushed studies into the back ground—but only for the moment. The next week—the end of finals—saw little or no activity on the part of Michigan State College students. ROTC NEWS Col. John L.

Killingsworth, "State Labor Relations Acts;" and Prof. Arnold Wil liams, "The Common Expositor." In addition, two books written or edited by C. E. Erickson, director of the MSC Institute of Counseling, Testing and Guidance, were selected as among the ten best books in the field of guidance published in 1947. Prof. Romeo Tata, head of the MSC violin department for the past two years, was recently awarded a life membership in the Arizona Composers Society. Another mark of outstanding recog to Michigan State when nition came Prof. Otto J.

Bagwell's unani mous election as president of the United States Junior Chamber of Commerce at the June national convention in Phila delphia. Prof. Bagwell, head of the MSC De partment of Written and Spoken English since 1944, has been active in Jaycee work for 11 years. He served as a national director from 1944 to 1946, president of the Michigan chapter in 1946, and national president for the past year. He has gained national recogni tion through civic leadership, direction of war bond drives, civilian defense work, and many other projects. He has been granted a year's leave of absence from the college in connec tion with this national office. As part of his duties, Prof. Bagwell will conduct an extensive speaking tour, which will take him into the 48 states, Hawaii, Alaska, Canada and Central and South America. As "extra-curricular" honor, he will crown Miss America of 1948 in Atlantic City in September. an AMONG THE FACULTY the MSC Department Dr. Russell A. Runnells, who has directed of Anatomy since 1943, was named head of the Department of Animal Pathology at the May meeting of the State Board of Agriculture. On July 1, he replaced Dr. E. T.

These former students and graduates met old classmates and friends, visited the "old haunts," examined the expanded campus and the latest additions, and took in the program arranged for them over the graduation week-end. Many came early—Thursday and Fri day—but the bulk did not start register ing until Saturday. The Union Memorial building, in the midst of drastic revision and modernization, was packed to capacity with alumni—shaking hands, peering for familiar faces, and having a lot of fun. the world's Took Rain in Stride Many of the alumni were in the stands Friday night when the Water Carnival, a beautiful parade of 40 floats and many sports events, was rained out. But they took it in stride, and were back in the crowd the next day for all the events. Many were on hand in Jenison field- house Sunday to hear Charles F. Ketter ing, a director of General Motors Cor poration and one of top inventor-manufacturers, deliver an ad dress on "Days of Opportunity." Ket tering spoke to MSC's largest gradua tion class received bachelor's degrees and 213 advanced degrees at the ceremonies. They also saw the presentation of four honorary degrees and the 1948 MSC Alumni Awards for Distinguished Service by President John A. Hannah. Honorary degrees went to Irving J. Woodin, '13; William J. Wolf, '12; Nathan P. Hull, '89; and Samuel M. Dean, '14. The Dis tinguished Service Awards were given Elmer W. Brandes, '13; Ulysses P. Hed- rick, '93; I.

President Hannah, a member of this class, spoke on plans of the college for the present and future. Eight other classes held quin-quen- nial luncheon reunions in the Union Sat there were many urday noon, and "guests" at the various tables—alumni out of other classes who did not hold special reunion luncheons. These lunch eons were held by the classes of 1903, 1908, 1913, 1918, 1928, 1933, 1938 and 1943. An estimated 400 persons were in attendance. The alumni that the college campus had to offer—the Water Carnival, special luncheons, an Alumni Day parade of land floats, base ball games, a special Alumni Day Dance took in everything night, Saturday and Commencement Sunday. They came, saw and particip ated—for a short while they were "back home" in the college environment which had made such an indelible impression on their lives. June 5 was a big day on the Michigan State College campus, but from the spirit and exuberance displayed by the 1,000 who returned—next year will be even bigger.

Year's Sports Summary The end of Michigan State's 1947-48 athletic program showed that the Spar tans, engaging in 12 sports and 130 con tests, had won 75, lost 51 and tied four. This gave them an over-all percentage of over .600 for the season record. Heading the victory list was Fendley Collins' wrestling team, which was un defeated in nine dual meets and placed second in the NCAA tournament. Good Season for Netmen Close behind was Frank Beeman's tennis squad, which posted an impressive 13 won and four lost. During the regular season, only one loss was sustained and that was by a 5-4 score in a return match with the University of Michigan. The record was bettered when the Spartan the Central Collegiate netmen copped Conference title in June. This wound up the best season since 1934. Coach John Kobs and his baseball team, feeling the effects of heavy losses to professional baseball, wound up the season with a 10 won, 14 lost and one tie record. Of these losses, eight were by a one-run margin. Although the 1948 team was a more balanced squad, lack of pitching was the main weakness. The football squad had a 7-2 record, and the swimming team had eight vic tories against two losses in dual com petition. showed Other varsity these teams records, victories listed first: Basketball, 12-10; fencing, 6-3; boxing, 2-4, with one indoor track, 1-1; gymnastics, 1-4, tie; with one tie; outdoor track, 1-2; and golf, 5-5.

Hedrick, '91, with his slow-swinging stride, as he crosses the campus in the direction of the Library. There, you observe, goes a retired professor but not a retired stu dent. A few minutes later you come upon him at a desk in the library stacks, with books on the Crusades piled before him and you get a thoughtful comment on the old struggle of Christian and Turk and the present one of Arab and Jew for Palestine. Hedrick has always been a student— It was necessary in an omnivorous one. a man who taught so many courses. Upon graduation, the opening for an in structor in English fitted into the plans of one who, since the days when he walked from the farm to high school in Harbor Springs, had planned to go on to Law School at Ann Arbor. By teach ing country school in the long winter vacations, by eight-cent-an-hour daily labor on the College farm, and by cutting firewood for classroom stoves at forty cents a cord, Hedrick had come thus far. An instructor's pay opened the way for study at the University in win ter vacations. the But that Has Taught Many Courses cycle was year-around changed two years later when the news papers quoted the professor of history and poltical economy of Michigan Agri the cultural College to the effect College was useless and should be con verted school. The vacancy that suddenly occurred became Hedrick's to fill. Now—there was his tory, government, economics, and even psychology and philosophy to be taught, as well as the winters in Ann Arbor. into a normal that Later, as these became separate depart ment?. Hedrick developed many an ad vanced course in finance, taxation, man agement, and the course that became a book: The Economics of a Food Supply. The habit of reading was thus instilled, year after year, as he met his classes, earned his master's and doctor's degrees at the University, debated current issues with Prof. Ryder, and spoke to farm and business groups. When his teacliing came to an end ten years ago—he was only seventy—the habits of all those years went right on. Was Favorite With Students But Hedrick's career has been on the side of students as well as study. His classes were popular in the first years when many agriculture students pre ferred a general education and found it in the history, economics, and govern ment that he taught with such mastery, such humor, and such personal interest in In later years as the em each student. phasis include marketing, credit, finance, and manage ment, and with opportunities to major in economics or business administration, Hedrick's courses became professional as well as general education ones. In con siderable measure these shifting em phases at MSC were accelerated by the work of Hedrick and the Depart ment of Economics he headed until 1930. in agriculture came to On the side of the students too were the years as chairman of the Social Com mittee when he was inclined to a leni ency that expanded social opportunities. To free students from the inconveni ence and expense of buying textbooks in Lansing, the book-buying cooperative was founded by Hedrick and others. He was the guiding hand its years. Every student in forty-five years through all benefitted from the reduced prices that that store offered. college book cooperative For one to have survived a half century at MSC was no small achieve ment in itself. In the 1880s and 1890s, as Dr. Hedrick so vividly recalls, "the students counted that year lost in which they did not force the resignation or dis missal of some professor or president." Hedrick escaped the stamping-feet, the rats turned loose in class, and the note book bonfires before professors' homes. Those were days, too, when the instruc tor on the "sub-faculty" was looked upon as Few men made the jump from what was nick named the "scrub faculty" to the faculty itself. Hedrick was one of the few. inexpensive help. temporary, Has Survived Many Hazards He survived other hazards as well. There was the broken nose in (he annual Faculty-Senior baseball game when he missed a throw to "first" from Stanley Crowe. But that was an excepti n, for Hedi'ick played on faculty ball teams into his fifties, and at sixty-five was play ing tennis several times a week. Well might Hedrick say with the Abbe Sieyes who, when asked what great thing he had done in the French Revolution, re plied, "I lived through it." to years When Prof. Hedrick retired ten years ago, he set for himself a line of readings: first Greece, then Rome, then the Popes, and now the Crusades. That is only the come—he beginning. For turned eighty this April—we shall see him, as the bells in Beaumont Tower ring at five-fifteen, going down the walk, past the spruce that were old when he came here as a student, past the Union whose inception owed much to Hedrick, and the rest of the pleasant three-quar ter mile walk to the old home on Oakhill. At right is Doctor Hedrick as an instructor when he lived in Station Terrace. The time was December, 1896. Today, the background has changed, but the man W. O. Hedrick remains the same—a faithful student. At left, Dr. Hedrick is shown with "dapper" hat and his pile of books in the MSC Library. Following Alumni Clubs /£y ^otn Kin*},- Syracuse Tops Fund Drive Lowell Eklund, '39, reported that the Syracuse chapter leads all alumni chap ters in percentage participation in the Memorial Fund campaign, at the group's May 12 meeting at the Drumlins Country Club. To reach those members not yet personally contacted, solicitation assign ments were accepted by those present. With a view to increasing interest in and attendance at alumni meetings, the group decided to put into effect a special "notice" plan, under the direction of Harold Haight. An expression of sympathy the formally family of Glen Stewart was issued and incorporated into the group's minutes.—Miss Shirley Townsend, '37, 871 Ackerman Ave. to the Memorial Fund drive and accepted contributions. It was suggested that Akron and Canton, now included in the Cleveland area, might wish to establish separate alumni groups, inasmuch as few persons from either city find it possible to attend meetings in Cleveland.—Mrs. Jacqueline S.

This year, Spartan chemists and chemical engineers broke all existing attendance records when they gathered at Harding's Presidential Grill to honor William "Bill" Gill, who retired this year after 26 years as MSC chemistry depart ment stockkeeper. Dr. Laurence L. Quill, head of the MSC chemistry department, summarized recent progress made by the College. His talk was followed by one by Dean R.
