Bendixen Honored by Washington State

The program of the 28th Annual State College of Washington Institute of Dairying took a surprise turn at the banquet sponsored by the student branch of the American Dairy Science Association on March 10. The surprise was on H. A. Bendixen, Professor of Dairy Science and Director of the institute.

Dr. Bendixen found himself the surprise featured guest, as 200 former students, friends, and associates turned up for the dinner to honor him for 32 years of service to Washington State College and to the Washington dairy industry. Another 200 well-wishers sent greetings in the form of personal letters.

Laurels presented to the veteran educator included $1,000 as an appreciation gift, a leather-bound volume of personal letters, a plaque, a humorous doctoral degree, and a cane with 32 service bars.

Climax of the evening was the presentation of a certified check for $1,000 contributed by former students, representatives of the dairy industry, associates, and friends.

A plaque from Washington's dairy industry was presented by A. F. Bird, Seattle, secretary of the Washington State Dairy Foundation.
