PROFESSOR W. D. CLARK
Becomes Acting Head of Forestry
Department.
On the first of April, Professor
W. D. Clark took charge of the
Forestry Department, to succeed
Dr. H. P. Baker. Prof. Clark gradu
ated from Philips Academy, An
dover, Massachusetts in 1900, and
in 1904 received his B. A. after the
regular classical course at Yale.
After traveling for eighteen months
in this country, Cuba and Porto
Rico, Prof. Clark entered the For
est Service as an assistant in silvi
cultural work, and continued in the
service until 1906, when he entered
the Yale Forest School. After one
year in the school, he reentered the
Forest Service. He was engaged in
making volume table studies in the
southwest and in Montana, and later
was assigned as an assistant on the
Lewis and Clark National Forest.
In the spring of 1908 Prof. Clark
returned to Yale University, and in
1909 received his M. F. degree. In
the fall of that year, he came to
Penn State as one of the assistants
to Dr. Baker. Upon the resigna
tion of the latter, It is highly fitting
that his work be carried on by Prof.
Clark. In his work here, the new
acting head has proved himself a
man of thorough preparation, not
only in Forestry subjects, but also
in many allied branches. Deserved
ly popular with the men in his De
partment, he will undoubtedly be
successful in his new position; and
it is without any reservation that
we extend to him our congratula
tions and best wishes.

May I assure you that I am not
in the habit of breaking appoint
ments and I promise quite solemn
ly to keep the next one.
Sincerely yours,
