Dr. John D. Shea Is
New Physics Professor
Students in physics at the University of Miami are fortunate to have Dr. John Dinwiddie Shea as their instructor in this subject. The University is proud of its entire science department, and justly so- It is such able professors as Dr. Shea that make the college of science what it is.
Dr. Shea hails from the western coast, yet he has chosen to migrate to Florida. He entered the University of California in 1919. During his entire college career he was intensely interested in scientific theories and experiments. He graduated from this university in 1926 with an A. B. and a Ph. D. degrees. In working for the latter degree he majored in physics. He also did extensive work in the field of astronomy.
For the past three years Dr. Shea acted as full-time instructor in physics and astronomy in Tu-lane University at New Orleans. During his time at Tulane he carried on many interesting investigations and calculations concerning comets and other phenomena connected with the heavenly bodies. Dr. Shea mentions that his main

Speaking of the University of Miami, Dr. Shea says: “I find that the students here have scholastic standards on a par with those of all the great southern universities. I believe that the climate here is indeed wonderful, and is certainly most conducive to study. I welcome all students interested in science, whether in my classes or not, to visit me at any time they wish.”

The Hurricanes were penalised each time they crossed the South-wegem twenty-yard line. Many of wie penalties were unnecessary. One example of such a penalty was a 16-yard one against Siler for calling a Southwestern man a “cowboy.”
