W. A. ROCKIE RETURNS
TO THE UNIVERSITY
(Continued from Vnge One)
assignment of the government. He
will not only remain here during Pro
fessor Bengston's absence, but per
haps next year as well.
Mr. Rockie was very prominent in
university circles five or six years ago,
and will be remembered for his partici
pation in school activities. After his
graduation here he entered the em
ployment of the bureau of soils, with
headquarters at Washington, D. C,
and remained in this work until the
latter part of 1917. This work took
him into Texas, Georgia, Louisiana
and other southern states in the win
ter Beason only, but he has worked
in nearly every state in the Union,
.during the summer months, his work
taking him largely into the middle
jind western states of Wyoming, Ida
ho, Utah and Oregon, where he
.worked in the mountain regions.
With Geological Survey
""Since the beginning of 1918 Mr.
Rockie has been In the service of the
United States Geological Survey, and
has, during his whole post-university
career, specialized in field work.
His work in the mountainous west
ern states was largely the opening up
of small mountain valleys for home
steading purposes, within a generally
limited forested region. These val
leys, being better suited to agricul
tural uses than to the minor indus
tries, were opened to settlement and
Mr. Rockie had much to do with ac
complishing this end.
This extensive work with the gov
ernment equips him admirably for his
Juture work at the university, because
of his practical experience. Mr.
Rockie's work for the remainder of
the year will be on the whole class
work, but next year it is possible that
he will have charge of the work in
the field survey department.
