Chemistry Prof Returns Home From Tour European scientists are viewing With interest the techniques used hy Dr. Pierre Van Rysselberghe in his study of the chemistry of cor rosion; Dr. Van Rysselberghe, pro fessor of chemistry in the univer sity, returned this week from a three-months tour of conferences wjth U. S. and European scientists. The Polarograph, an instrument used to gather information about the solutions in contact with cor roding metals, is used by Dr. Van Rysselberghe for the first time in studies of this kind. The techni ques used by the university chem ist were reported in American tech nical journals, which are being studied by European chemists. One of the purposes of the tour, said Dr. Van Rysselberghe, was to trace a rumor that a chemist in Goettingen, Germany, was using the Polarograph to study corros ion. ^Although the rumor was false Dr. Van Rysselberghe said; “The reactions of European scientists to the techniques used at the Univer sity of Oregon are favorable and in England there is an indication that the method will be employed there.” On July 13, Dr. Van Rysselberghe left Eugene for the east coast and Gordon Research conference on corrosion held in New England. He flew to England August 3, and in the three months he visited Eng land, France, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland and Italy. Although the Oregon scientist found Europe in general in much better shape than he did during a similar trip in 1946, Dr. Van Rysselberghe quoted a German scientists as say ing: “One can’t expect Germany to contribute much to science because of all the many important chemical institutes she once had, only four are now intact.” For Educational Help, See Counseling Center “We are anxious to have anyone who feels they need vocational or educational help and guidance to come in and see us,” said J. Spen cer Carlson yesterday concerning the University of Oregon counsel ing center. This service, with headquarters in Emerald hall, was originally es tablished for veterans. Started in 1945 by Dr. Leona Tyler, it was as sociated with the Veterans Admin istration, giving vocational guid ance to those veterans who asked for it. In July, 1947, there had been so many requests from non-veteran students that the service was opened to anyone who desired help. Gives Tests Besides giving vocational ad vice, the counseling center, which is one of the divisions of the office of student affairs, gives various placement tests and examinations such as the freshman placement tests, medical aptitude tests, graduate record examinations and nursing aptitude tests. The service also provides remedial clinics for ■ " reading, speech and nearing neip. “A major difference between the counseling center and the faculty advisory program is that we don’t atteempt to see every student, rather we attempt a more complete counseling program for those who feel they need the additional as sistance,” explained Mr. Carlson. New Machine The service this year has a new machine that aids in correcting the many tests that are given. During the recent math test, it was possible to correct 600 papers an hour. The machine will probably be used to correct many of the mid-term and final examination papers, making it easier for the faculty to make up grades and have them turned in earlier, it was said. Other staff members at the cen ter, besides Mr. Cari3on, are Dr. Herbert C. McMurtry, Dr. Leona Tyler and Mrs. Edith Ryman.
