Faculty Found to Be Human Under Scrutiny By ALICE LEE NELSON “Dorothy Cox Hesse of Eugene gave the University of Oregon faculty some of their own medicine, put them under the microscope, and discovered what a swell bunch they are, what interesting hobbies they ride,” begins an article in the November issue of the Sunset magazine entitled "Professors Are Human.” To prove her contention that professors are human, Mrs. Hesse describes the 200-foot three-track “Evans made and Evans planned” railroad which John Stark Evans keeps in his attic to which “he makes tracks when sweet music sounds sour.” Dean Hazel P. Schwering's collection of more than “250 Tom Thumb animals, birds, people, dwellings, conveyances and odd bits of tiny pottery” is brought to light as well as Professor Frederic S. Dunn’s collection of stamps. In his collection "everything from rare, valuable postage stamps to wine bottle stamps or even Christ mas seals are found,” Mrs. Hesse said. The article continues “that’s the reason his six loose leaf al bums are so full of interest and variety. And that is one of the reasons he’s so full of interest and variety.” Mention is made of President C. V. Boyer’s dogs, George Hopkins’ model airplanes, Dean Wayne L. Morse’s horses, Dean James H. Gil bert’s ten-mile daily walks, as well as the cabbages and tomatoes of I Howard R. Taylor, head of the psychology department. Dorothy Cox Hesse, ex-’22, is the wife of Dr. John L. Hesse.
