Of Dean Hunt
Long Service of Head Of Graduale School To Be Honored
A campaign to raise funds for a portrait of Dean Rockwell Dennis Hunt, for 30 vcars a member of the faculty of thc University of Southern California, is being initiated by the graduate student body and graduate alumni. The movement has the enthusiastic support of President Rufus B von KleinSmid and the entire university administration.
G. Byron Done, president of the graduate student body, is serving as chairman of the committee or-canizing the campaign Contributions of any amounl. from anyone.
| may be turned in to Miss Bohnette. ln the graduate school office, room 160. Administration building A re-ccpit will be issued.
Following is a sketch of Dr Hunt prepared by a fellow faculty member:	i t In 1855 a Vermont farmer having come to California by way of the isthmus married a young woman who had crossed the continent in a covered wagon. On February 3, 1868. in Sacramento, this young couple became the parents of Rockwell Dennis Hunt Consistent with the pioneering spirit of his ancestors h’e was to carry this explor-Itory spirit into new frontiers For over a half century he has pioneered educational projects and guided the minto ways of greater service to the state and nation.
Rockwell Dennis Hunt received his early education in Sacramento and Napa counties. He c< detect his commercial course in Napa college in 1887 and received his Ph.B. degree in 1890, his Master of Arts in 1892, In such high esteem did the administration of the college hold young Hunt that from 1891 to 1893 he was professor of history at that institution. From the beginning he has devoted his life to the educational profession. If ever there was a career man in education it is Rockwell Dennis Hunt.
The California Schoo! of Elocution and Oratory located at San Francisco was proud to number him among its’ graduating class in 1892. Several years that followed were spent in Johns Hopkins university where he received his Doctor of Philosophy degree ill 1895. Being a native son. the East held no lures for Dr Hunt and in 1895 the University of the Pacific called him to lhe chair of history and economics. To round out his educational experiences he served as principal of the San Jose high school from 1902 to 1908 at which time the University of Southern California called him to the chair of economics and so-i ciology.
While at the University of Southern California he has been true to Continued on page four

Polarization, that peculiar condition of the rays of light described by leading authorities as "the most significant Invention in the field of optics." will be discussed and demonstrated by George W. Wheelwright. Ill, in 159 Science building tomorrow.
Mr Wheelwright, who for many years has been employed by the Polaroid corporation. Boston, and is one of the leading authorities on this subject, will demonstrate and exeplain such phenomena as creation of color ln colorless materials and the light which Illuminates the glossiest paper without reflections through analogy and by actual control.
Among the numerous topics connected with polarization in the demonstration will be the showing of three-dimensional motion pictures in color. Tills color three-dimension is one of the approximately 800 uses which polarization has. How light and glare elimination break down under polarization, both through the eyes and through light source, will also be shown.
Polarized sun glasses have been made aavilable to the public in the past year, but these not only eliminate blaring reflections but employ another quality of the material ln absorbing the harmful ultra-violet rays that damage the eyes.
Tomorrows lecture. Jointly sponsored by the physics department of the Univresity of Southern California and the Western Institute of Light and Vision, will be the first time *ie public has had the oppor-tuiVy of viewing the development o? polarization,
Because the lecture room lias a capacity of only 200 people. Mr. Wheelwright will give six demonstrations tomorrow, in order that most of the Summer Session students and outsiders can witness the showing. Demonstrations will start promptly at 2. 3, 4 7, 8, and 9 according to John Aitchison. physics professor at U.S.C.. who will be in charge of the program. Day time attendance Is urged, he says.
A lion-technical and iion-oomn.’r-cial presentation, the lecture * ill be of high value to those interested in phtography, optics, light, and ] traffic safety.
