Sunday, December 8, 1918 THE DAILY IOWAN STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA PAGE THREE MEET MISS ___ Behind rows of shining instruments, long lines of mysterious bottles and queer miscropes, Dr. Henetta[?] Calhoun presides in a snowy white apron, as one of the new members of the medical faculty at the University. This attractive little woman was among the first called by the department of medicine to fill a place left vacant by a man who was called to the service. Anyone who talks with Dr. Calhoun could not but be alarmed by her bright smile, the gleam of humor in her eye and the "spick and span" neatness about her. Her very air marks her not only as a woman intelligent in her position but also as a truly human individual. "I never decided to be a doctor. I always knew that I would be one," Dr. Calhoun declares. "I guess I began my career one day when I was seven years old. I was playing doctor with my sister and in our play I mixed all the medicines that I could find on the pantry shelf. I fed this mixture to my sister and the results were nearly disastrous. This experience, however, did not in any way lessen my desires to become a physician." Dr. Calhoun was born in Clarina and received her early education in this state. Her first degrees she obtained at the University of Illinois. Against the will of all the members of the family she then decided to become a doctor and entered the school of medicine at the University of Michigan. This fall she became a member of the medical faculty at the University of Iowa where she is in the department of bacteriology. "It is my hobby to urge women to study medicine,' Dr. Calhoun says. "The profession offers wonderful opportunities to girls," She declares that statistics show that there have been but few women who have not made a success of medicine. Dr. Calhoun has visions of someday becoming a family practitioner where she may come close to the lives and hearts of people. WE LIKE YOU, S.DAK. Even though the South Dakota vocational unit, Co. N, expects and is anxious like the S.A.T.C. veterans, to go home some day, the men are still working, according to their commander, Lieut. R.E. Chamberlin. During the past two weeks these men have constructed two bayonet assault courses near the West Side barracks, which will be of permanent value in the military training courses of the University. These men like our school and our city, they say, and if many of them were not high school and college men of other institutions, or were [illegible] not for family ties, they would probably stay at the University. They appreciate every that Iowa DAINTY LUNCHES between or after classes Drop into WHITING'S PHARMACY On Dubuque St. has done for them. Like all good soldiers, the only thing they regret is that they didn't get a chance to go "over." It is certain that the University would not be the loser if some of the Co. N men would stay. For instance, there is Pvt. F. Koevenig, who can sit in the uninspiring chill of the of the guardhouse and sketch a "perfectly wonderful" cartoon bearing the inscription: "Wonder When I'll Get Out Of Here"- all the words capitalized. Yes, neighbors, we'd like to have you stay. Send the Iowan home. "Y" HUT WILL BE RETAINED That the present building will be retained by the "Y" is practically assured. The location is a desirable one because of its proximity to the campus. The hut system has proven so successful that is will be kept notwithstanding the fact that the war is over. K.C. HUT TO BE ABANDONED The K.C. hut will be abandoned shortly, according to the secretary, F.T. Mcill. The hut was established to meet the needs of the S.A.T.C. men, but as demobilization will soon take place, the organization feels that its service will no longer be needed.
