They were DR. H. D. BABBIDGE, JR., the Universitv President, A. E. WAUGH, Provost, W. B. YOUNG, Agriculture Dean, and DR. W. A. COWAN, Head of the Animal Industries Department. This group paid tribute to Professor Johnson for his 40 years of service as a member of the University of Connecticut faculty. The honored educator is Associate Professor of Dairy Husbandry. President Babbidge read a letter written by Gov. John Dempsey, praising Prof. Johnson for his remarkable record. The letter stated in part; "During the 44 years, including your undergraduate days, that you have spent at Storrs, you have witnessed a remarkable growth and development in our State University. You may well take pride in the considerable contribution you have made to that development. The cattle bred by your Animal Industries Department and the prizes they have won add a great deal to the Connecticut agricultural reputation."
