Chief Nurse
Leaves Post
Miss Alice M. Chubb, superin
tendent of the College Infirmary,
retired from her position at the
College August 31 after almost 20
years of service.
Coming to Penn State in 1928
from a position as instructor of
nurses at Uniontown Hospital,
Miss Chubb saw the Infirmary
grow from a hospital with a staff
of two nurses and a capacity of
eight patients located in what is
now the Beecher Home Manage
ment House to a more modern
unit with 11 nurses and an em
ergency capacity of 50 patients,
housed in the present Infirmary
building which was presented by
the Potato Growers of Penn Sy
lvania in 1929.
Miss Chubb's major aim now is
to go fishing, a hobby she enjoyed
before assuming her duties at
Penn State. Her parting wish is
that the College might erect a
larger hospital with complete
medical and surgical facilities.

Doc Yeagley
Makes 'Life'
Dr. Henry L. Yeagley, associate
professor of physics, and his hom
ing pigeons have received na
tional recognition: He had been
experimenting on the correlation
of magnetism and the earth's ro
tation in determining why a hom
ing pigeon is a homing pigeon.
In last week's Life magazine is
a story on the experiment and an
explanation of his success.
Prof. Yeagley first discovered
that, by attaching magnets to his
homing pigeons, they could not
find their way home. This dem
onstrated that the earth's mag
netic fields were at least partially
responsible. But as magnetic
fields prevail all over the world,
he guessed that this could not be
the only reason for a pigeon's
homing instinct.
He concluded that a force
created by the rotation of the
earth was the deciding factor. To
test this idea he set up a pigeon
loft in Kearney, Nebr., where
magnetic and rotational condi
tions are exactly the same as at
State College, and loosed the
birds on the Nebraska plains.
They returned to the loft, prov
ing his theory.
Now Life has printed the com
plete story with pictures and a
map. State College is clearly in
dicated on the latter. So Prof.
Yeagley, besides winning himself
national renown, has helped put
State College on the map.
