This is Prof. W. R. Humphreys' ----
last semester at the University
but he doesn't plan to stop teach-
ing.
"I would like to teach in some:
milder climate during the winter,
and then spend my summers in
Ann Arbor," he said,j
Prof. Humphreys teaches the
English Bible course that we've all
heard about. He is the only man
who has given it here.
A Harvard graduate, Prof.,
Humphreys taught at the Univer-
sity of Oklahoma before joining
the University's English depart-,
ment. In 1921 he became the first
assistant dean of the literary col-
lege, a post he held until 1938.

Milton and courses in introduct-
ory poetry. At the University of
Oklahoma he gave almost every
course in the department. lie said.
"Don't call me a jack-of-all-
trades. Teaching all those courses
did me good, but I think it might
have been hard on the students."'
It was at the University of Ok-
lahoma that V. L. Parrington
Pulitizer Prize winner, suggested
that Prof. Humphreys teach the
English Bible.
Well Preserved
Prof. Humphreys said he was
once interviewed by a reporter who
called him "well-preserved." And
he remembered that he was once
taken for a student shortly after
he came here from Oklahoma.
"I was going to Detroit on the
inter-urban and somebody asked
me-don't you have to be in?"
Prof. Humphreys likes travel
and hopes to go to Europe "when
the world settles down." He had a
leave trip planned during 1943
through the Mediterranean, the
Holy Land and Europe but the war
interfered.
Steady Golfer
Both the Humphreys like golf
and play the University course.
"He plays a steady game," Mrs.
Humphreys said. "He has a great
deal of patience with it."
The Humphreys have two sons,
one a graduate of the University.

Because milk is one of the best
sources of badly needed protein,
this project can give nourishment
and hope for the future to thou-
sands of hungry, discouraged peo-
ple, Seymour S. Goldstein, presi-
dent of the Famine Committee,
said. It also gives farmers the
opportunity to re-stock their
farms, he added.
