DR. A. JOHN DODDS--FACULTY PERSONALITY OF THE WEEK The violence of an atomic blast may have never been actually witnessed by anyone associated with Palomar but a new member of the faculty this year has some inkling of what it would be like. Dr. A. John Dodds, teacher of economics and History here at Palomar, was stationed during World War II at the city of Algiers when an ammunition ship, containing some 10,000 tons of bombs, exploded in the harbor. Dr. Dodds was just two or three blocksfrom the blast, which destroyed two or three other ships and all the windows and tile roofs in the city.
Dr. Dodds began traveling on his awn early . in life. H~ took to the sea after graduating from high school in Pennsylvania, securing a job on a freighter which plied the Atlantic Sea Coast and the Gulf of Mexico. His duties consisted of steering the boat and standing lookout. Drafted in 1941, he spent five years in the Army, advancing from a private to captain. He served in Europe, participating in the invasion of southern France, and French North Africa, where, at the port of Algiers, he was in charge of placing medical supplies on all invasion ships bound for Sicily.
After the War, Dr. Dodds received his Ph.D. from Pittsburg University. He also studiedfor two months at the University of Glas~ow. He taught for 4-iyears at Geneva College in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania~ His teaching career interrupted by a call to active duty during the Korean outbr-eak, Dr. Dodds spent some . more time in the service. Upon his discharge, he came to Palomar. "I like Palomar College and am particularly impressed by the students and the people of the community, and by the prospects of the College for growth and service. rt

Altho the re~ cord is unimpressive, as yet, the team is still going _like they had won three,instead of loaing that- many. Scoring _T •. D's in the Citrus g&~e were Leith, Messersmith, and McAnany. Leith behind beautiful blocking good for 55 yards,and Messersmith and McAnany on passes. Our next ·game will be with Redlands at Escondido tomorrow night, and should prove to be a good one. This being the first home game, the team should have your support to win. He says, "We have a ~ast backfield and a heavy line. Altho we are yet to get in the win column, we should win our first hor.1e grune with Redlands." Ching plays offensive right end and defensive ~alf. He is majoring in Engineering and Civil Engineering .
