DEDICATED TO
FRANK H. KAUFERT
Professor and Director of the School of Forestry
... for his pm·t in having made many men into f01"esters.
He has aided forestry student organizations in ways unknown to
most students, always managing to come through for the students
when they needed help.
He has shared his many experiences with hundreds of students
over the years, giving thern in the process the benefit of his rnany
years of activity in forestry. He has always maintained an open
door and a listening ear for students.
He is a demanding teacher, a keen critic and a dispenser of good
advice, but most of all he is a rnan the students might consider a
f1·iend.

Foresters' Day, Xi Sigma Pi, Itasca Session, fall and
spring quarter Cloquet Sessions, and many other ac
tivities may be responsible for the relative calm atmo
sphere in the School as compared to the turbulence
in student bodies generally. Maintaining this situation
will require even more dedicated and improved in
struction, far better teaching facilities on the St. Paul
Campus and Cloquet Forest, and developing more
effective channels of communication than now exist.
Graduate student enrollment is down, from 65 in
1967-68 to 55 in 1968-69, due largely to the draft situ
ation. There is every indication that this is but the
lull before the storm and that graduate enrollment
will rise rapidly, far more rapidly than undergraduate
enrollment. About 2/3 of the graduate students are in
Ph.D. programs and the remainder in Masters' pro
grams. Since a good deal of our research is done by
graduate students under the direction of staff mem
bers, our research program during the past year has
been somewhat handicapped.
Doug Gerrard, who received his B.S. and M.S. de
grees from the University of Toronto and Ph.D. from
Michigan State University, joined us last fall as As
sistant Professor in the forest measurements area.
Tim Knopp, who earned a B.S. in the School in 1957
and an M.S. from the University of Arizona, was
appointed an instructor in forest recreation. Tim
spent parts of two years following graduation on
bicycle trips around most of Central and South Ameri
ca and Africa. This may sound like recreation to some,
but sounds pretty strenuous to me. Tim's fabulous
collection of slides has received much acclaim. Vilis
Kurmis who has an undergraduate degree in forestry
in Latvia and his M.S. and Ph.D. from Minnesota,
has been a Research Associa te on our staff during the
past year, assisting Henry Hansen on his vegetation
management research in State parks. We are happy
to have these new staff additions and invite all alumni
to stop to meet and get acquainted with them.
With staff gains normally come staff losses. In the
first two weeks of March six School staff members re
ceived enticing offers of positions from other forest
schools, from FAO, a forest industry, and from a non
forestry institution. Four of the six offers have been
turned down, one is still very much alive and may
result in loss of a most important staff member, and
one offer was accepted. Carl Reidel, who will reeeive
his Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota this sum
mer and has been an instructor on our staff for the
past four years, accepted an outstanding offer from
Williams College in Massachusetts. Carl will head
that College's new natural resources program. The
School of Forestry Report
All of you no doubt have had the kind of year
that seemed unusually busy and involved but yielded
little on which to report. As this report is begun, that
appears to be the kind of year just completed by the
School, the kind that has been filled with activity but
does not appear on first glance to have had the sig
nificant happenings and progress reported to you in
recent issues of the Gopher Peavey-Alumni News.
Both the quantity and quality of undergraduate
students continue to increase. The fall quarter saw
441 students enrolled in the School, the largest num
ber in the history of the School. The quality of these
students is indicated by the fact that about 85 per
cent were in the upper part of their high school gradu
ating classes and 97 per cent had completed three or
more years of high school mathematics. Also, the trend
of our population towards concentration in cities and
suburbia is reflected in the source of our students.
About 90 per cent of our students have urban back
grounds and three-fourths come from the Twin Cities
and surrounding suburbia. The fact that close to three
fourths of them graduated in high school classes of
over ~oo makes their high school performance all the
more remarkable. However, there is still room for im
provement in quality and we expect the trend toward
added quality witnessed in recent years to continue.
The enrollment of transfer students continues to
increase, and transfer students annually make up a
higher per cent of our student body. As our junior and
state college systems develop, this trend towards a
larger number of transfer students no doubt will con
tinue. This could result in doubling the number of jun
iors and seniors, as well as graduating classes, with rel
atively little total enrollment increase. Since more than
90 per cent of School of Forestry courses are at the
junior-senior level, we could in 5-10 years double our
teaching load without a major change in total stu
dent numbers. This trend towards more transfer stu
dents could make a shambles of our long-range en
rollment predictions.
Forestry students in common with all university
students are more critical, more challenging, and more
demanding of top quality instruction, advising and
counseling. Fortunately the School has the type of
advising and counseling system under Ken Winsness
that is responsive to students. This plus abundant
involvement in Forestry Club, Forest Products Club,
Gopher Peavey-Alumni News, Christmas Tree sales
project, Foresters' Day, the Special Event preceding

challcnges and opportunities in this new position are
many and Carl is the kind of individual who can
fully meet them. We congratulate Carl and wish him
well in this most interesting position. We need more
foresters in positions of this type. However, his leav
ing will seriously interfere with our development of a
stronger conservation of natural resources course and
of the proposed Master of Forest Resources Adminis
tration (MFRA) program in the School.
The somewhat abbreviated and later field session
at Itasca, during the last week of August and 8 weeks
of September before start of the fall quarter, for in
coming juniors and transfer students appears to be
working out well and is accomplishing the objective
of exposing all students to a field forestry experience
prior to entering their last two years of professional
forestry education. Also, this arrangement permits
interested students to obtain an added summer of
field experience in forestry, which was not possible
under the old arrangement. Last fall we.held our first
session for juniors and seniors at Cloquet. It worked
out well. We plan to have two Cloquet sessions, fall
and spring, in the future, with 50-60 enrolled in each
session. Added winterized cabins and improved class
room and laboratory facilities at the Cloquet forest
are essential to accomplish this two-quarter offering,
made necessary by rapidly expanding enrollment in
creases. We urgently need the $500,000 classroom
laboratory building requested of this Legislature by
the University but not included by the Legislative
Building Commission in its recommendations. We
have proposed phasing this building, constructing first
the classroom portion for about one-half the total
estimated cost.
The University's request of the Legislature for com
pletion of Phase III of the Forest Products Building
on the St. Paul Campus appears to have little chance
of approval during this Legislative session. This will
complicate our teaching and research facilities plans
because a large addition to Green Hall was scheduled
for asking in 1971. Consideration is being given to
combining Phase III of Forest Products and the
Green Hall addition into a single request in 1971.
Alumni will be interested to learn that our three
Professors Emeritii-Allison, Schantz-Hansen and
R. M. Brown-are well and active. "Pop" Allison was
additionally honored by the City of St. Paul and
University for his 55 years of contributions towards
the establishment and management of the John H.
Allison Forest-formerly called the Lake Vadnais
Plantations. Schantz continues to serve on the Board
of Directors of the Northwest Paper Foundation and
continues active in an advisory capacity to the Clo
quet School Board. Schantz suffered a broken hip in a
fall last winter but is recovering and anxious to start
his annual trip to Florida. "Brownie" is busy with
local library and community activities and travel to
the southwest and other points. Mrs. Louis Rees is a
most welcome guest at such Forestry School activities
as the annual Staff and Graduate fall picnic, Lumber
men's Short Course banquet and Foresters' Day
events. Walt Nelson, former superintendent at Itasca
and, with Scott Pauley, an addict to Sir Walter
Raleigh pipe tobacco, is enjoying good health and re
tirement at Alexandria, Minnesota. Walt and alumnus
Stan Ringold (Minn. '14) keep us honest with their
meaningful but good natured criticism.
The Minnesota Forestry Alumni Association Board
is an active and productive group. Its activities in
connection with the two annual MFAA evening meet
ings, School plans and problems, and the recent ques
tionnaire sent all alumni are deeply appreciated and
are productive. Without the activities of the Asso
ciation and Board the School's program would be
grcatly weakened. We need the type of guidance,
counsel and support the MFAA provides.
Foresters' Day this year was featured by an out
standing talk by Dr. Norman Borlaug (Minn. '87),
now with the Rockefeller Foundation and in charge
of its world wheat breeding program, on his work to
help solve our food problems in underdeveloped coun
tries. Norm credits his undergraduate forestry train
ing for the background and incentive that have
brought him recognition as a leading contributor to
wards the alleviation of hunger throughout the world.
We hope that future Foresters' Days will see other
School of Forestry alumni return to address and
stimulate students, staff and guests with presentations
on their work and experiences.
The Gopher Peavey-Alumni News is the last stu
dent-produced publication in the University outside
of the Minnesota Daily. The Gopher Peavey-Alumni
News staff needs your support and encouragement in
this annual effort. It is far better to have annually
interesting and outstanding productions of this type
than foment and "sit-ins."
All staff members and our Administration join me
in these greetings and best wishes. We invite you to
visit the School whenever you return to the land of
rugged winters.

ACTIVITIES Cloquet-Fall 7968 by Tom Baruth
The first week of the Fall Quarter Cloquet Session
showed us how well planned the Cloquet Forest really
is. Every forty lin e is perfectly located so it runs
through the wettest, deepest part of a big swamp.
This feature didn't prove entirely bad, however, be
cause it allowed us to complete an additional one
credit course-Swimming l.
. the lads were last seen tearing off in a S-SW
direction through the swamp and underbrush"
GOPHER PEAVEY, 1938
After learning how to type map swamps, we learned
how to sample them and compute their merch an ta ble
volume to an alpha level of .0,5. Most crews found
that their inventory reports used a quantity of pa
per greater than the total volume of standing timber
on th eir quarter section.
What leisure time we could find was more th an
filled with varied activities. Gene Brummel meditated
his way to the chess championship, and K en Cutler
won th e pool tournament. Greg Ryan had no close
competition for the sleeping championship. Hard
fought "Stratego" games raged into the wee hours
of the morning. Ezra is still trying to figure out how
the spy always turned up by his field marshal. Tom
"The Foot" Watson terrorized the soccer field by
dribbling the ball between his toes.
lar customer, however, was Al K as tnel'. In fact Al
could sometimes be found in the middle of the day
cruising timber at Curt's.
We learned many unusual facts during the quarter.
For example, we learned the maximum capacity of a
'63 Ford is l.13 cords of firewood. Our thinning project
taught us that trees don't always fall when cut off
at the stump. In fact, Gary Heinrich and Jumper will
go so far as to say that they usually don't. Cabin 3
also learned that their stove didn't function properly

in the usual manner with quotes such as "who the
- - - left this town defenseless," and "the last one
down to Curts' buys." As usual the fellows learned
surprisingly fast to live with both of these "handi
caps."
In conjunction with the traditional extracurricular
activities enjoyed such as Curts', vandalism, and soft
ball the group broadened their interests. Cabin 10
started the ball rolling by establishing their cabin as
headquarters, a huge sign being erected on the roof.
This brought distrust and jealousy from the rest of
the camp and soon they began to go to bed at 10PM
instead of gPM. "Doc" Johns followed by trying to
establish his syndicate in Paul Smith's classroom. Evi
dently Paul got his "cut" because soon the sound of
pool balls, Captain Kangaroo, and the rattle of empty
bottles could be heard frequently being interrupted
by Paul's Silviculture lectures. The SwanHelSon
Brewery and Company soon got into the act and
would like to take this time to thank the station for
allowing them to develop their product in the utmost
secrecy. Good, wasn't it Paul? The Cloquet quartet
felt the brew's first effects at 3am and introduced each
cabin to their musical arrangement of Logger Lover.
Outside on the athletic field Cabin 10 reigned as
soccer champs. This was probably due to the great
turnout we exp erienced for each game-Cabin 10 end
ing up playing Cabin 10. Those few amateurs who did
wander into a game didn't last long . A picture is worth
a thousand words-take a close look at Bob Anfang's
nose and one of Dr. John's forehead.
Even traditional class work was unusual this year.
John Hegg and Merrick Reburn explored the possi
bilities of using the University wagon in their logging
operation. John says it would never double as a skid
der however. Other classes, even though not as unique,
were equally valuable.
The fun times and great educational experiences
felt by this group of Foresters at the R esearch Station

The Itasca session got off to a roarIng start as
Rog Pegg and Rog Richards roll ed into the Station
on their Scramblers. Before we went home, their hill
climbing and "Grand Prix" antics on the trails and
roads left a couple Foresters somewhat shaken. It
wasn't that they were too loud, but we could hear
them from Headwaters Pagea nt Grounds all the way
back in the Cabins!
For those arriving Monday, th ere was a fast-moving
"touch" football game wh ere th e members of cabins
22 and 24 exchanged about four square feet of skin
for scabs and bruises. Th ere weren't even any recruit
ers around!
With stragglers coming in all th e next clay, Dr. Hall

things in gear with an orientation meeting for all thosc

Those ISO-some plants in two weeks were really
something, to say the least. We did learn a lot on
those long, mea ndering walks in spite of ourselves.
John Adams, alias "Stump," and Mike Rath learn ed
what we all hope was a valuable lesson in taking
final tests ; not to get just one wrong! The flash cards
and plant samples will be long treasured in our minds.
Last, but hardly least, considering time involved,
was our three weeks of Ecology. It included a field

After a good lunch we went to our respective

of things, bigger and better, to come. We computed
our paces in the woods and field. W e th en learned how

The compass and pacing survey exercise for mea
surements was probably the most memorable for
some. The first grou p to do the exercise was to start
pacing at the end of a dirt road about % of a mile
back in the woods. A couple of men had gotten about
ten chains into the woods when they ran into two
black bears at not too great a distance. The bears and
the students parted company and were last seen go
ing in directions 180 degrees opposite at high speed.
The hazel brush was so thick that many of us fell
down innumerable times and never even hit the
ground!
As with past groups, the 1968 session wasn't all
work. Seaberg's and Ole's saw to that. The traditional
iee cream did flow and enhanced the atmosphere and
depth of sleep of many of the students. There were

AI Burt and Pat McDermott, after one particularly
good round with the ice cream, set out to the dump
to find a bear to wrestle. Whether they got beat, didn't
find any, or chickened out, nobody knows. They were
pretty tigh t-lipped about it.
Dave Mobraten and Don Hanson managed to
create more than their share of ruckus and noise
by using sling-shots to shoot cherry bombs out over
the lake. Don Fuchs would probably still like to

The one thing lacking at Itasca in 1968 was an op
portunity for all students to get together at one time
to relax and have a good time. This could have bef'l1
accomplished by a conclave of sorts or inter-cab;1l
competition in outdoor events. It could have been
highly instrumental in providing an opportunity fM
all of us to become better acquainted with each other
and provide a measure of "esprit de corps."
All considered however, the entire 113 students
present would agree that the session was enlightening,
fun, hardwork, and well worth while. It will long be
remembered as the beginning of our over-all training
in forestry at the University of Minnesota .
Forestry
Club by Tom BaJ'Uth
It's been another highly successful year for the For
estry Club due to the great participation of all the
members. The year started off well with a large num
ber turning out for the Fall Bonnre. The weather was
even accommodating for a change and we were able
to hold the bonfire outside for the second straight
year! "Beechnut" was so enthralled with the whole
situation that he forgot to bring any cups along with
the coffee. Maybe he just thought that foresters
should learn to rough it.
The first meeting was attended by well over 100
students, and this set the trend for continued high
attendance at meetings throughout the year. Christ
mas Tree Project co-chairman Chris Peterson and
Pete Roussopoulos got things rolling for the big proj
ect, and Conclave chairman Terry Helbig began sign
ing up all available talent for the Conclave.
In October, the eleven man conclave team came
back from Southern Illinois University with a respect
able fourth place. This was achieved even without the
assistance of some of the star competitors who were
out of action up at Cloquet.
Chris and Pete wrapped up a highly successful
Christmas tree project in December with a net profit
of $fl,OOO. Many thanks to Chris and Pete and all the
other Club members who put in long hours of work
to make this project such an outstanding success.
I would like to thank Vice President Terry Helbig
for getting everything going and handling the club so
well Fall Quarter when I was at Cloquet. Thanks
should also go to AI Burt and Doug Anderson who
ably filled in for oUl' missing Sergeants-at-Arms and
Dan Seekins who was acting Historian. It was great
to come back at the beginning of Winter Quarter and
find everything going so smoothly. I may not have
been aware of what was going on, but at least it was
going smoothly.

Baruth: "Say Terry, are sure this is relevant?" H elbig: "Why, (hic) no doubt about it Rocky!" Forester's Day was the best ever, and chairman
Terry Helbig and the dozens of other guys who
worked on the countless preparations for this big
event deserve a lot of credit. The Banquet was espe
cially outstanding, and we were privileged to hear
Dr. Norman Borlaug, world famous plant breeder
and pathologist. Three $100 scholarships were pre
sented to deserving forestry students at this time by
the Forestry Club. I hope that the Banquet, which
was held last year for the first time, will continue to
be a part of Foresters Day in the future.
Bull-of-the-Woods editor Rog Richards has done
an outstanding job in putting out that fine publica
tion informing us of all the local news. In special
appreciation for his work, I think that the Club
should award Rog a dictionary.
I would like to thank Dr. Mace for being an excel
lent advisor this year. Don Hanson has done an ex
cellent job keeping tabs on all our money. Now all
we have to do is to try and get it back at the end of
the year! Bruce Rottink's minutes have been so com
plete that they even include all of the jokes from the
last meeting. Greg Ryan and Jim Russell have been
so eager to fulfill their duties that they got traffic
tickets rushing around after the coffee and donuts.
Corn-y-ae has kept our history up to date and Phil
DuFrene has done an excellent job providing inter
esting programs . I would especially like to thank all
of the Forestry Club members for showing such an
interest in the club and making this year so enjoy
able and successful. I hope that the club can con
tinue to be one of the most active organizations in
the University in the future.

The Spring 7968 Forestry Club Canoe Trip
by Gene 111iller
Under the careful supervision of Canoe Trip Chair
man Greg Ryan and his assistant Gene Miller, the
Spring 1968 Forestry Club Canoe Trip promised to be
one of the finest trips in the history of the club . Th ere
were to be twenty-seven rented canoes and nine pri
vate canoes on the trip. Unfortunately, May 26 was
a cold and rainy day, but fourteen canoes and one
houseboat (Jim Bloemendal) braved the elem ents and
made the trip.
The trip began at Taylor's Falls on the St. Croix
River . The bad weather made the trip seem bleak, but
the foresters, true to tradition, soon became "accli
matized" and no longer minded the weather.
Foresters Duane Kick (Kicker) and Gary Heinrich
stopped to examine an island, when their canoe
mysteriously was set afloat. Gary and Kicker, being
resourceful, waded after their wayward canoe. When
the water deepened, our boys "deepened" too. Un
fortunately, the boys neglected to remove their wal
lets, etc., etc.
About noon, the troops slogged to a halt for a lunch
of soggy sandwiches. Kicker gave a demonstration of
how to float a hat off one's head and Jim Bloemendal
demonstrated burning charcoal floating in water.
Later that day the troops arrived at the Marine
Canoe Service at Marine on St. Croix. Everyone was
thoroughly "soaked??" and exhausted. In spite of bad
weather, the trip was great fun, and we are all look
ing forward to the 1969 Canoe Trip.

Forest Products Club by Bruce Schmidt
Thi s year for Fores t Products Club, really started
right after fin a ls in Jun e 1968. It was then that three
club members, Steve Weeks, Phil Johnston and Gene
lV!ool'e along with club advisor Bob Thompson par
ticipated in a club trip to th e west coast. They visited
many of the fores t industries' manufacturing facilities
and attended the annual Forest Industries Mal'ketin g
Conferenc e a t the Univ ersity of Oregon. Theil' trip
was partially financed by money earned by the club
making and selling FORPRO Wood Identification
Kits.
We started this year by selling the wood kit bus
iness to an alumus of the School of Forestry. Th e
money from thi s will be used to finance further trips
and oth er worthwhil e activities. Such activities focus
on giving club memb ers more contact within industry
in which th ey will work .
This yea r's club officers include Larry Demaree,
secretary-treasurer; Phil John ston, Vice-President and

Xi Sigma Pi
by Pete Roussopoulos and Chris Peterson
Xi Sigm a Pi, the National Honorary Forestry Fra

Minn eso ta School of Forestry, the fraternity's fourth
chapter was es tablished a nd appropriately giv en th e
name D elta , th e fourth letter of the Greek alphabet.
R ealizing that s tud ents of forestry, as futur e pro
fess ion a l foresters, share part of the responsibility to
seek quality in the standards of their profess ion, th e
found ers of Xi Sigma Pi adopted objecti ves "to secure
and maint a in a high standard of scholarship in for
estry ed uca tion , to work for the upbuilding of the pro
fession of fores try, a nd to promote fraternal relation s
among earn est workers engaged in forestry activities."
In ord er to realize th ese objectives, prospective mem
bel's are sel ected on the basic of acad emic perform
ance, interest, and participation in practical work per
tainin g to forestry, qualities of leadership, and prom
ise of attaining high professional achiev ement.
On M arch 1, the Delta Chapter of Xi Sigma Pi held
it s a nnual initiation in the North Star Ba llroom .
Thirty-three junior and senior forestry students a nd

Freshman Bonfire by Tim Resch
On Wednesday, September 25, another great year
for the Forestry Club was kick ed off by a record
crowd of more than 160 persons attending the fall
bonfire.
A different site was used to th e approval of some,
and disapproval of others. Those that liked th e site
liked th e sheltered grassy amphitheater. Those that
didn't like the site were those who sat on rotten
apples.
Acting vice-president-turned-president Terry Helbig
welcomed the group to the bonfire as a massive din
ner of hot dogs, beans and pop was being enjoyed.
The coffee arrived late but no one seemed to mind
because cream, sugar and cups never arrived. So th a t
the coffee would not be wasted, we saved it to put
out the fire.
Frank Kaufert, Direc tor of the School of Forestry,
introduced th e faculty, gave a short welcoming speech
and told an "authentic" Indian story.
After the introduction, Conclave team captain
Terry Helbig, assisted by several teammates, demon
strated some of th e Conclave events. Ron "Bong"
Salladay demonstrated speed wood chopping, but due
to a pre-bonfire meeting at Manning's was not able
to complete a full stroke.
The climax of the evening was a series of folk songs
led by Joe Merkins and Kathy Josephson. The first
song sung was Logger Lover. Nobody knew the music
but we sang (?) it anyway. After this bad start the
group moved into the standard folk songs until Ken
Winsness closed the 1968 Fall Bonfire with a senti
mental rendition of "Good Night, Ladies."
As the crowd left, some moved to Manning's to
have a post-bonfire meeting for the exchanging of
summer-job stories.

Midwest Foresters Conclave
by Terry Helbig
The University of Illinois hosted the conclave this
year. Minnesota was again stopped in its quest for its
first conclave championship but this was no fault of
the men who attended. In spite of our fourth place
finish in field events, I firmly believe Minnesota's
thirteen men pu t on the best overall show in the con
cl ave.
Six men hac! previous conclave experience and
form ed the nucleus of the team : Chris P eterson, Doug
And erson, Al Burt, Rog Richards, Ron Salladay, and
T erry Helbig. The remainder of the team made up
for what they lacked in experience by their willing
ness to compete and win. These members included
Brian Marinello, Mark Boche, Ron Welch, Mike
Knudson, Gene Determan, Fran Wagner, and Tim
R esch.
Onl y four members of the team won points, bu t
with a few good breaks many other members would
have placed in various events. Rog Richards placed
second in match splitting. Ron Salladay placed second
in chopping and teamed with Chris P eterson for a
fourth place in two man bucking. Chris also showed

individual effort with his second in tobacco spit to go
along with the first gained in that event by "Beech
nut" Helbig.
Illinois attempted to replace the traditional ice
cream social with technical events since the social
hour was "against state and university regulations."
Minnesota placed second in these events. This high
placement was earned with a second in photo inter
pretation by Ron Salladay and a second in the college
bowl by the team of Chris Peterson, Mike Knudson,
Terry Helbig, and Ron Salladay.
Minnesota has no reason to be ashamed just be
cause they did not win a chain saw. The competition
was tough but our team placed fairly well in all the
field events. Our second place in technical events is
to be envied and our sportsmanship was probably the
best of all the teams entered. Next year Minnesota
will have another team to be proud of and with a few
good breaks it will be coming home with first place
and a chain saw to go along with the traditional first
place in the ice cream social.

Christmas Tree Project
Chris Peterson
Although with only two optimists, P ete Roussopou
los, the other co-chairma n and myself within th e crew,
the club, and probably the school itself, the proj ect
this year was enjoyabl y succ essful. Naturally a suc
cess means money, and money we made-slightly ov er
two grand worth of profits.
Our lot, located a t th e corner of LarpenteuJ' and
Cle veland, opened on Dec. 1, and although our selec
tion was somewhat limited we were sold out in 2
weeks. Four species made up our stock of trees this
year and included Scotch pin e, Norway pine, Spruce
and Canadian Golden pine. Th e Scotch pine was the
biggest seller and of course the most expensive having
been imported from Michigan. Both our sheared
Spruce and sheared Norway pin e were obtained from
Zimm erman, Minn. and look ed real good this year.
We a lso had some wild Norway. Oh yes, the fourth
species included one Canadian Golden Pine (alias
Jack Pine) . It seems that a Freshman Forester mi s
took it for a scotch pin e whil e cutting Norway at
Cloquet.
This year the selection at the Cloquet Forest Re
search Center amounted to nil. To substitute we
bought Norway stumpage off a private "40" located
north of Curt's. By the looks of the trees cut, I go t th e
feeling Curt's was hit pretty hard before-hand.
Along with the trees we were also very successful
in selling wreaths and cones . The biggest sellers were
the digger pine cones.
We obtained boughs from num erou s sources. In
addition to those cut at Cloquet, a truck load was
cut at the Hazleton Alcoholic Correction Center near
Centerville. Al so, special thanks go to Dr. David
French who donated several truck loads from his
plantation.
Thanks again to all those who participated and
good luck on the project in the future.

F-DAY-1969 F-Day, 1969, was the product of much hard work
on the part of all the committee chairmen. With
preparations started early in fall quarter, much of the
work was compl eted by the time the closed coffee
hour rolled around. The event chairmen met and
personally interviewed ov er twenty queen candidates
at this time. From this large start, five finalists were
chosen and subjected to another coffee hour where
MC Ezra T. (Lance Sorenson) Cooter asked them
questions ev ery Daughter of Paul should know.
On Friday night, January 17, a smorgasbord din
ner was held. One of th e highlights of th e evening
was a talk on "Fiber and Food for the World's Bil
lions" by Dr. Norman E. Borlaug, an alumnus of
1937 who has attained world-wide recognition for his
work in feeding starving people. Forestry Club Presi
dent Tom Baruth presented Dr. Borlaug with an
" Honorary Uncle of Paul" award. He also presented
the Field Forester of the Year award to Eldred
Johnson and Forestry Club Scholarships to Bob
Morrow, Don Hanson. and Rog Richards.
Early Saturday morning th e Loggers' Breakfast
got under way in the Corpus Christi Church basement.
After everyone had eaten their fiU of pancakes and
sausage, they adjourned to the North Star Ballroom
where skits were presented . The faculty and grad
stud ents teamed up to giv e their impression of a
" typical Forestry 1 lecture." The student skit was
headed up by Tom Watson who staged "Ezra and
Jumper's Chuckle In ."
The crowd moved to the throne in front of Green
Hall where Penny Marcoe was crowned Daughter
of Paul. She in turn presented an "Honorary Daugh
ter of Paul" to Kathie, K en's secretary, the Uncle of
Paul award to Dr. Mace and the Son of Paul award
to Terry Helbig.
Dr. Mace had collaborated with his fri ends at the
Climatology Bureau and arranged for perfect weather
during the field events. The wildlifers had troubl e
fielding a team for the tug-of-war so Cloquet spring
went against Cloquet fall and the Juniors went
against the faculty. (The Juniors won their match
but there is still controversy as to who won the other
one.) The other traditional field events follow ed this
exhibition. (Thanks to Dr. Thompson for squaring
the chopping and sawing cants.) Ron Salladay won
the most events and took hom e the canoe trip prize
for being the best competitor.
After th e fi eld events were over. th e over 21 crowd
headed out to th e Manor for a bite to eat before the
dance. Those under 21 tried for reservations at Mac
Donald 's but were turned down because they were
not dressed in proper attire to dine in a place of that
quality .
The day concluded with the Stump Jumpers' Ball.
Chris Kalogerson provided the mu sic and Chris
Peterson provided th e witty sayings. Prizes wpre
presented to field event winners during the first in
termission while violators of F-Day rules were tried
and convicted in K a ngaroo Court during th e second
one .
All in lill it turned out to be another successful
Foresters' Day. Foresters got together, had a good
time, and once again showed everyone how proud
they are to be in their chosen profession.

A Summer on the Chippewa The Interns
by Terry Helbig
Last summer Jim Russell, Myron Blank and my
self were fortunate enough to be on the Weyerhaeuser
Forestry Intern program the first year it was offered
at the University of Minnesota. We worked at the
Snoqualmie Falls tree farm. This program was design ed
to give the aspiring forester a chance to have experi
ence in three major fields of forestry.
The first of th ese fields was production . Valuable
experience was gained in this field through work as a
choker-setter. This proved to be both the most educa
tion a l and most back-breaking job of the summer.
After gaining experience and many new scars setting
chokers, we were switched to a different field-manage
ment. During our internship in this field we worked
on a genetics survey. The purpose of this survey was
to choose plus trees for futur e used in a seed orchard.
Th e final portion of the summer was spent in the field
of engineering. Experience in this field was gained by
:vork on surveying crews. Most of this work was lay
mg ou t roads, bu t we also did work in laying ou t cut
ting lines.
Weyerhaeuser also found things for us to do in
s?me of ?ur spare tim e. Every second Wedn esday
IlIght semlllar was held to acquaint us with company
goals and policies. These were all valuable since thev
covered topics of current interest in Fores try . Som"e
of the seminar topics were Weyerhaeuser timberlands
organization, production, planning and con trol, re
search, th e high yield fores t, and land use manage
men t. Weyerhaeuser also played host several tim es
and tr<:a ted us to dinner. The most interesting of
these dlllners was one about the middle of the summer
when interns from all of Washington and many com
pany officials gathered in Tacoma .
.Even with all the time spent at Weyerhaeuser, we
stIll had plenty of free time to see the country. Some
of the places we visited were Seattle and the Science
center, Mount R a inier, Leavenworth (a re-created
Bavarian tow~), Vancouver and Victoria, Chuck
Schroeder's (a rigging slinger, Jim worked with), and
th e Olympic Peninsula. Moose ValTo and Steve Nelson

by Robert A. 111aki
On June 19, 1968 I began work on the Cut Foot
Sioux District on what turned out to be th e most en
joyable summer job I hav e ever held . My job as a
forester's aide dealt with recreation and timber. They
did hav e a wildlife program in operation, but I was
not involved. Th e only "wildlife" I got was the extra
curricular, non forestry type.
Recreation was th e larges t area of management
concern in the district during the slimmer and th e
one I. was invo.lved in most. Selling annual and daily
campmg permIts consumed most of my days and
weeks. As a bit of variety, I would get put on the
camp-ground policing crew (garbage collection),
campground construction (cutting brush), or con
ducting the Visitor Information Program on Fridays.
. many of our jobs were in recreation-hauling
garbage, helping tourists, hauling garbage, cut
ting firewood and hauling gaTbage"
GOPH ER PEAVEY. 1959
1 had many opportunities to meet a lot of interesting
people camping in the district. On e in particular tha t
. ~J:

I can remember was th e man from Texas who was con
cerned with the littl e critters wand ering around the
campground that he called " th e little black and white
sportjobs with the fluid drive ." I told him he should
worry more about th e mosquitoes because they were
bigger and better up here and it only takes three of
th em to lift you off the ground.
The other area I worked in was timber. The ta sks
performed wcre scaling, compartment examination ,
timber marking, running cutting lin es, and inspecting
logg in g operations. The one piece of equipment that
I found to be the mos t fasc inating and at times fru s
b'at ing was the paint sp ray gu n. With one of th ese
weapons when it works, a fo rester can paint, acciden
tally or not, himself , hi s par tn er, squirrels, birds, and
an occas ional tree or two .
In August during the aunu al D eer River Rice F es
ti val I had the honor and privilege to represent th e
Chippewa National Forest by being that famous fur
ry sy mbol agains t forest fires- "Smokey the Bear."
Boy, was it hot in th at suit. It was like a portabl e
sa una . The only reward I go t out of the whole d eal,
besides the honor of being Smokey, was to hav e my
picture taken with my a rm (Smokey's) around a
cute red-headed majorette from the Grand R apids
High School Band. After th a t Smokey was so fired
up he put out three fores t fires before they even
started.
With the approach of th e Itasca Summer Session
I was forced to leav e this rewarding job and return
to school.
working over a month , I calmly a sked my boss,
" Wha t are we suppo se to be loo king for?" Occasio nal
ly I would rebel against "b ugology's" nomenclature
a nd classify a specimen as a "yellow-shaped, crescent
thing" or a "two-clawed, six legged, flop-n-dop." Ap
palled with my terminology, th e boss assigned me th e
task of plan t iden tifica tion and left the bugs to my
partner.
Another concern of S&PF was cars. S&PF didn't
use fores t service vehicles , ra th er, they used cars from
t.h e In teragency Motor Poo l. Needless to say, sin ce
th e Motor Pool felt th a t its cars should only be driven
on paved roads , relati ons were sometime strained be
tween the two. Und ersta nding th e importance of ha n
dling my new Ford stationwagon with T.L.C .. I
remarked to the bo ss one day. "Say, do you know
th at the passing gear in thi s car doesn't work wh en
you go over 95?" My partner noticed the expression
on th e boss's fac e anel quickly added, "But th a t's
only on gravel roads."
Th e summer was very rewa rdin g both materiall y
and aesthetically. I was given a GS-4, paid ex penses.
and a new car with a credit carel. Being cool and dry,
th e Upper Peninsul a of Michigan is a very pl easant
place to work. The north shore of the peninsula has
many sandy beaches with multi-hued sandstone bluffs
forming the backdrop. Since th ere are many streams
in this region, waterfalls are not uncommon. Th e
relative lack of brush a nd insec t pests enables one
to truly enjoy an outdoor exper ience. And that's how
I spent the summer-enjoying an outdoor experience.
Grubbing For S&PF
by Dave J acobs
During the winter quarter of 1968, Mr. Hallgren
contacted me about a summer job with the State
a nd Private Forestry Division of the Forest Service,
usually referred to as S&PF. Aft er being interview ed
I wondered about my qualifications for the job as
well as my interest in th e job. The interviewer de
scribed the work as an in sect survey in North ern
Minnesota and Wisconsin . H av ing never had any in
struction in " bugology ." I really wasn't too keen on
bugs. I could also in vision better places than Wi scon
si n in which to work. With this fram e of mind I be
gan what proved to be a very enjoyable summer.
Th e job was quit e different from its initial d escrip
tion. My partner, a graduate student in forest ento
mology from MichIgan Sta te, and I spent the entire
summer taking white grub counts on red pine planta
tion . Most of the censusing was part of a fiv e year
evalu a tion of the efl'ectiveness of Aldrin for white
grub co ntrol. We worked ma inly on the Hiawatha
National Forest in th e Upper Peninsula of Michiga n.
Since my boss was basing hi s Ph .D. thesis on this
work a nd my partn er hoped to write a paper on it
a lso, th ey were very concerned abo ut the precision of
my work. Realizing th eir apprehensions, I enjoyed
giv ing them minor heart a ttacks. For instance, after
Flathead IRFS Crew
by Richard W. Trembath
During the summ ers of 1967 and 1968 I was em
ploy ed by the U.S. Forest Servic e on an Interregion a l
Fire Suppression Crew. Based on the Glacier View
R anger District of th e Flathead National For es t we
were located some 20 mil es from the nearest town of
Columbia Falls, Montana, b ut we were only about 100
yards from the w('stcrn bounda ry of Glacier Nation a l
Park.
An IRFS crew is 11 hi ghly organized group of 2,11
college-agee! men that are physically fit and highly
trained in the suppression of forest fires. During th e
first two weeks we wcrc su bject ed to films, e!emonstra
49
routine but it pays off when we're on fires. After this
training we were put on project work until a fire call.
Being on an IR crew we got on fires in many differ
ent sections of the western United States. In 1968 we
tra veled to Arizona, Utah, Oregon, Idaho and Mon
tana. We "had hopes of getting to Alaska, but the
"lower 48" always seemed to have enough fires to
keep us busy.
When the Forest Service spends this much time and
money in transporting and training a crew of this size,
you know they'll try and get some work out of us.
Therefore, we were sent to the biggest fires and then
were given the head end on the more cri tical sections
of these . It's not uncommon to work a 16-hour shift,
but as a rule 12 to 14 hours were standard. Once our
crew boss brought our time slips to a fire timekeeper
with 25 working hours reported in a 24 hour period!
This was explained by crossing a time zone on our
fligh t to Arizona.
The summer wasn't all work though. For us there
were the Glacier Park parties, sights, and even coed
softball games on off-duty days. Th e chance to be able
to move around the West and get acquainted with
many different types of forests in various locations was
a wonderful experience. Al Burt, who got stuck on
tht> St. Joe IR crew during th e 1968 season, can tes
tify to such highlights as th e five -day motel R&R in
Prescott, Arizona and the good natured crew compet
tition. Few summer jobs offer such scenes as aerial
retardant bombing of hot spots on mountain sides at
tree-top level, or watching professional sawyers in ac
tion against a 6-foot-dbh sitka spruce snag, or watch
ing a ca t skinner push a fire lin e through a dense forest.
It is for th ese experiences as well as a chance to do
physical work for good pay tha t I'll probably be on
th e 1969 Flathead IRFS crew.
Big smoke
tions, lectures and discussions pertaining to the many
aspects of fires and their control. Along with this
there was a continuous program of conditioning which
included many hours of calisthenics, running, obstacle
course work, as well as an occasional jaunt up a moun
tain. These two weeks are comparable to a boot camp

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
Dear Alumnus:
The organization statement of the Minnesota Forestry
Alumni Association recites the purposes of the Association
to be, "to promote the best interest of the School of For
estry and the University of Minnesota, to coordinate the
activities of the alumni of the School of Forestry, and to pro
mote a closer relationship between the School, its students,
faculty, and the alumni." We hope that your Executive Board
or :t9b8-69 has contributed toward fulfillment of these pur
poses. Our efforts in that direction included actions and
activities as reported in this letter to you.
A meeting with Sherwood Berg, Dean of the Inst i tute of
Agriculture, Forestry and Home Economics on March 24,
1969, wa s very informative and enlightening. Progress is being
made toward reorganization on the St. Paul campus. Dean
Berg looks toward enrollment growth to 10,000 to 12,000 stu
dents on this campus within a few years. We hope to see
the School of Forestry experience growth which will result
in greater status and greater visibility, and ultimately be
come the College of Forestry.
The second of the above purposes has best been served
by the continuing exemplary services of our perennial Sec
retary-Treasurer, Ken Winsness. It was indeed a shock to all
alumni to learn that his "perennial services" as Secretary
of the Executive Board would terminate on June 30, 1969.
His resignation was impelled by the magnitude of other
duties. Ken 's contribution s to the Alumni Association are
legend and need no recounting by me. We hope and antici
pate that Ken wi II continue to be the primary lia ison be
tween School and alumni . It has [lOt been determined at this
time who will be his replacement as Secretary-Treasurer of
the Executive Board . The se are big shoes JO fill, as I am
sure everyone recognizes the very important role Ken ha s
played in making the Minnesota Forestry Alumni Association
the successful and active organi zation that it is today.
By way of improving communication with all alumni, a
questionnaire was mailed in April. Re sults will be tabulated
and furnished to all alumni in the address record . It is hoped
and expected that a great deal of worthwhile and meaning
ful information can be gleaned from this project.
The third of the above-stated purposes was well served by
Executive Board meetings and the spring and fall alumni
banquets. Members of the Executive Board thi s year ex
hibited a great deal of interest in school curriculum, change s
adopted or proposed, and prospects for the future We had a
number of long and interesting discussions with Dr. Kaufert
and Ken Winsne ss concerning the preparation of Forestry
graduates for career opportunities. The fall banquet was
typical of many such previous events, with excellent turn
out, good fellowship, and an interesting program consi sting
of a report to the alumni by Dr. Kaufert, a movie on snow
slides (Avalanche), and a barbershop quartet known as the
Mississippi Ramblers. Thanks to our genial host, Ken Wins
ness, a good time was had by all .
I value my experience as your President during the past
year. I feel that I have received more than I have given. I
greatly appreciate the contribution s of all Executive Board
members and extend a special thank you to outgoing Board
members Clarence Buckman, Bill Hosfield , and Bill Aultfather.
I turn the gavel over to President-elect John Hall with best
wishes for a good year for the Executive Board and the
MFAA.

Minnesota Forestry Alumni Association
THE ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT "Pop" Allison-'29
"POP" ALLISON - On Sept. 4th, 1968, Prof. Emeritus John H. Alli
son had the coniferous forest surrounding Lake Vadnais dedicated
in his honor . University President Malcolm Moos and St. Paul
Mayor Thomas B},rne were among many city and state oHicials on
hand at the ceremonies. " Pop" still takes an active part in the
management of the fo.est which is located approx. 7 miles North
of Green Hall. E. G. Cheyney then the director of the School of
Fores'try, was contacted in 1914 regarding the possibility of estab
lishing a forest around Lake Vadnais. Professor Allison was as
signed the responsibility of the reforestation pro ject. " Pop" has car
ried his trees, both native and exotic through many insect and
disease threats with a very low mortality level. "Pop" truly earned
the honor to have The John H. Allison Forest dedicated to him.
Congratulations "Pop"!
Sam Dickenson-'49
SAM DICKENSON received an award from the Minnesota Chapter
of the Soil Conservation Society of America . The award was pre
sented by the chairman of the Minnesota Chatper for "distinguished
service to conservation by advanCing the art and science of good
land use." Sam joined the Erie Mining Co. Forestry Dept. in 1952
a : ter working for 2 years with the Iron Range Resources and Re
habilitation Commission. He received the award for successfully
developing techniques for establishing plant growth on the "tail
ings " of the taconite process. There is no natural plant growth due
to the highly erodable propert ies of the tailings. By ~reventing
this wind and water erosion , Sam has richly deserved this SCSA
recognition. Congratulations Sam!
Merl e M eyer-'49
MERLE MEYER - Prof. Merle Meyer on May 27th was the recipient
of the highly regarded Standard Oil Foundation Award . This award,
and the $1,000 which accompanies it , is given to instructors who
have "made ' outstanding contributions to undergraduate education ."
Merle 's award was one of six presented to instructors at the Uni
versity of Minnesota . Another School of Forestry instructor, Ken
Winsness, was the recipient of this award in 1966. The students and
faculty wish to join the Alumni in congratulating Merle on this long
overdue recognition for his many years of dedication. Congratula
tions, Merle!
ROBERT HERBST has left his post as Deputy Commissioner for the
Conservation Department for the State of Minnesota to become
Executive Secretary of the Izaak Walton League of America, Glen
view, Illinois. Bob was recently named the recipient of the Out
standing Conservationist Award by the General Sport Show, Inc. He
recieved this award at the Northwest Boat. Sports and Travel
Show at Minneapolis, Minnesota on April 3, 1969. He was further
recognized this spring by the College of Agriculture, Forestry and
Home Economics Alumni Association by being awarded the Alumni
Service Award for his contributions to the field of Forestry , the
University, and the State of Minnesota. Congratulations Bob!

SAMUEL B. DETWILER is retired at Arlington, Virginia. He says
"During the past six years my hobby has been to walk over all
portions of Arlington and observe the character and quality of
the autumn leaf colors. When I find suitable leaves, I treat them
for preserving their fine hues. A by·product of this hobby has been
to learn much about the steady increase in air pollution effects on
local vegetation. I am convinced that the science of Ecology is
today the most important science for the future welfare of all forms
of life in America and throughout the world. It is now 66 years
since I enrolled in the Minnesota Forest School. If I were a high
schOOl graduate and again choosing a profession, it would be for·
estry - but with specialization on ecology and its evolution under
the natural conditions normally found in the woods. Foresters were
the first to recognize and use the principles of ecological science,
and foresters should maintain their priority in further development
of it." Keep those very interesting letters coming, Sam - we really
enjoy them.

upon purposely, only in the last 20 years have I been interested in
its results. Will try and keep you posted on the outcome, providing
there is secretarial service in Hell. Meantime keep up the good

Wood is a natural insulator, nearly 1800 times
as efficient as aluminum in reducing heat
transfer by conduction , further reducing heat

Wood is one of the best known and most
durable of construction materials. Modern
technological advances in treating allow even
greater freedom for the use of wood in today's
designing for better and more enjoyable living.
The natural warmth, beauty and character of
wood adds to design freedom and comple

"I am happy to report that 1968 was a very pleasant year for me.
The highlight was a 6 week trip to Scandinavia on a project con·
cerned with an exchange of information on the ecology of the
moose between North America and Scandinavia. Along with on the
ground exchanges of information, I showed colored slides on my
research experience in Canada, Alaska, and Isle Royale National
Park. About half of my time was spent in Norway, 10 days in Sweden,
4 days in Finland with a 1 day visit to Copenhagen, Denmark. I
worked with the top researchers in Scandinavia and had a good look
at habitats used by moose, red deer, roe deer, and reindeer. One
of the most significant findings was that the change in forest cut
ting practices which started about 25 years ago was responsible
for the population explosion in the moose herds of Norway, Sweden,
and Finland where recent annual kills range from 40-45 thousand.
Apparently the change from selective cuttings to shelter WOOd, seed
tree, and strip cuttings produces much more food and is still good
forestry practice. My son, Wayne, now a CLA student on the main
campus served as official photographer colored slides and mOVies.
The trip was supported by grants from the American-Scandinavian
Foundation of New York and the Kelley Foundation of St. Paul. A
highlight of the trip was a visit to the Fredrikstad area of Nor
way where my father came from and attended school."

per cent of my time in the East partiCUlarly in Maine. In July we

conSOlidating the operations in Maine into our New England land

ment for 3 mills in Maine and the management of nearly ¥4 million
acres in this State alone can give you your share of day to day
problems. In order to keep even with them, it was suggested I move
to Maine. This State is much like Minnesota. Because of this, it
really was not difficult to move. Carol and I together with all our
worldly possessions landed at 314 Stillwater Avenue, Old Town on
