I am delighted to be able to provide you with an upbeat report about the University of Montana. While UM faces a series of important challenges during the next year, there are many reasons to be optimistic about our future.

Consider the following: • UM enrollment o f new freshmen and transfer students this fall is significantly larger than in previous years. • A recent image survey concerning UM revealed that Montanans consider UM’s programs to be of very high quality and deserving of additional funding. • An increasing number o f UM alumni have chosen to support the University financially via contributions to the Excellence Fund. • UM has been able to utilize a combination o f private and public funding to extend its M.B.A. degree program to Billings.

Outreach The Montana Repertory Theatre, a professional acting company based at UM, is a cultural resource for Montana as well as a laboratory for UM students. This past winter and spring, the Rep took “Cowboy,'* an original Montana musical, on a four-month tour that covered twelve states.

The University of Montana possesses a proud academic tradition that includes numerous Rhodes scholars and a Nobel Laureate among its graduates. Almost 45,000 living alumni are a visible testimony to the enduring quality of its efforts. Further, there is exciting new evidence that the University is making progress in extending that tradition of excellence to an increasing number of students and citizens. Your support in making that prospect a solid reality continues to be vital and is greatly appreciated. Let’s keep up the momentum.

From priceless art to rare fossils UM’s hidden resources

By Valerie Siphers Lindstrom

Ninety-three years o f faculty collecting artifacts and specimens together with donations from alumni and friends have built a group of permanent collections at UM that include such diverse items as the fossil skull of a six-foot- tall pig and the Edgar Paxson oil painting “Sacajawea.” Spread throughout the campus on display and in storage, the collections are a valuable learning tool for students and a cultural resource for the state. The University’s collections began with a donation of zoological and geological specimens from the Smithsonian Institution when UM opened its doors in 1895. Since then, alumni, faculty, students and friends have contributed prehistoric material, art, Native American artifacts, furniture, items from Montana’s early days, and botanical specimens. Parts o f the permanent art collection tour galleries in Montana, but the majority o f the collection is stored in a climate-controlled room. “Probably few collections have the variety and range that we have here,’’ says Dennis Kern, curator o f the art collection. “The collection could be called eclectic,” he continues, “but we have several examples for students to Dennis Kern, curator of UN's art collection, slides out two William Merritt Chase paintings, “Fra Dana” (top right) and “Priam” (bottom), study and compare.

Sites along Mullan Road near Missoula, at Bearmouth on the Clark Fork River and at various mines and stagecoach stations yielded hinges, door knobs, saddlery, buttons, barbed wire, dishes and silverware, medicine bottles, glass doll heads and other items. UM’s prehistoric material from the Pictograph Caves outside Billings is the most significant collection o f presettlement Native American artifacts in the state. The caves gave anthropologists a glimpse into one o f the longest unbroken sequences of human occupation in Montana. Malouf and six students, learning to manage museums and collections, are creating an anthropological display in the basement o f the Social Sciences Building. They hope the display, which includes artifacts that date from 10,000 years ago to the present, will be open to the public for Montana’s centennial celebration next year. Native American porcupine quill work, beadwork and historical pieces depicting tribal movements and the appearance o f whites and horses are being prepared for the display. In other departments, too, dedicated faculty are contin­ uing the tradition o f building and maintaining important collections. In zoology Professor Richard Hutto is responsible for his department’s two museums in the Health Sciences Building. “Very few colleges and universities house any sort o f zoological museum,” Hutto says. “Even fewer can lay claim to a museum the size and stature o f the University o f Montana’s.” The bird and mammal museum, which contains about 17,000 research specimens, has a good collection o f northern Rocky Mountain mammals and several series of specimens. A series, a group of similar or related specimens, is used by scientists who wish to study variations in a species across its range. The museum has series o f pine marten, deer, elk, antelope and bear skulls and skeletons that, Hutto says, are unmatched anywhere in the world. Hutto is also curator o f zoology’s reptile and amphibian collection.

UNIVERSITY O F MONTANA 21 HISTORY

After nearly 75 years, a Dornblaser returns to campus

By Virginia Vickers Braun Needless to say, Phillips, who is Dornblaser’s great nephew, was surprised when he visited Missoula in July at Paul Phillips, o f Chicago, thought few people would how revered the name Dornblaser still is at the University remember his illustrious ancestor, Paul Logan Dornblaser o f Montana. ’14. He almost placed a newspaper ad requesting “We never really got much information about my information about the former Grizzly football star. uncle,” Phillips said. Dornblaser, one o f five children, was born in Center County, Penn., the son o f a German Lutheran minister. Dornblaser’s sister Mabel was Phillip’s grandmother. Mabel was the only one o f the five Dornblasers to have children. She had two daughters, one o f whom, Jane Geisert, still survives and lives in St. Louis; and a son, James, who was Phillips’ father and is deceased. In addition to Paul, James had two daughters, Jan Thomson o f Palatine, 111., and Marilyn Schalliol, o f Tempe, Ariz. Although Paul Phillips, 39, never knew his grandmother or great uncle, he did know one o f Domblaser’s sisters, Josephine Walters, who kept many o f her brother’s letters, photographs and other memorabilia and who died at age 96 in 1973. It was while looking through these, that Phillips became interested in researching the family’s roots. Phillips, currently a student at De Paul University majoring in communications, said he feels a special kinship to his great uncle. Judging from pictures of Dornblaser, the physical resemblance between the two is uncanny. And there are other similarities: the two share the same name, gregarious nature and love o f sports; and both played football. “In learning about my uncle I somehow felt that my own identity was verified to a certain extent,” Phillips said. “I often wonder how my life would have been different had I been able to know my Uncle Paul personally. For me, reading about him and talking to people who knew him is my way of absorbing his personality into my life.” Returning to Chicago from a July vacation in Seattle, Phillips- made arrangements to get off the train in Glacier Park to com e see Dornblaser Field. While in Missoula, Phillips talked to John Campbell ’40 and Art Deschamps ’38 , who remember Dornblaser. Dornblaser originally came to Missoula to visit a cousin, Mrs. J. Wilson Moore. Evidently, he liked it here and stayed, working on the Deschamps ranches for two years before entering UM in 1911 to study law. A left tackle on Paul Phillips holds Paul Dornblaser’s watch fob and fraternity pin. The the football team, he was captain o f the 1912 team and attached card explains how the two miraculously found their way back acting captain in 1913. According to reports in the Kaimin, to UN. “Dorn” inspired loyalty and confidence and was “without

a doubt the best tackle in the West...He tackles hard, runs low and above all is the cleanest player ever seen.” He also was on the track team, threw the shot put and was president of ASUM. Dornblaser had a ‘‘cheery sm ile” and was known as ‘‘a lady’s man.” “Anyone who knows Dorn, knows that failure is impossible for the ‘husky bear,’ ” said one Kaimin writer. After completing a four-year law course at UM, Dornblaser was admitted to the bar and served for two years as deputy county attorney in Missoula. He enlisted in the Marines in 1917 during W orld War I and served in the only American division in the French 4th Army. He was killed by a sniper’s bullet in France at age 30 on Oct. 7, 1918. Some of the personal items Phillips brought with him to Missoula included papers found in the wallet Dornblaser

was carrying when he died. Dornblaser was trying to become a Marine officer and was carrying letters of recommendation from various prominent Montana citizens, including Jeannette Rankin, Congressman John Evans and Judge Asa Duncan. All the letters were neatly pierced, presumably by the fatal bullet. At the archives, Phillips was shown a watch fob—a black ribbon with a small gold football engraved “Dornblaser— Montana” attached—and a Sigma Chi fraternity pin. These belonged to his great uncle and were discovered being worn by a streetcar conductor in Van Buren, Ark., in 1922. The conductor, F.J. Golden, had taken them from a German prisoner and thought they were a German war emblem. A local Van Buren attorney recognized the pin as a fraternity pin and wrote Sigma Chi, thinking the owner would like to have it returned. The fraternity wrote back and authorized the attorney to buy the pin and football from the conductor and send them to Missoula. Apparently, Golden sent them to Gov. Joseph M. Dixon, who sent them to UM. The uncanny resemblance between Paul Dornblaser and his great nephew is evident in Phillips still has a lot to learn about his great uncle and this picture. many mysteries to unravel. For him, researching the past has been like putting together a giant puzzle with a lot of the pieces missing. For example, how did the German soldier come by Dornblaser’s fraternity pin and watch fob? Phillips also would like to know if anyone has information about Mrs. J. W ilson (Kate Harpster) Moore, the cousin Paul came to Missoula to visit, and Ike Harpster, who was either her father or brother. No one in his family knows anything about them. Phillips said his visit to Missoula was too brief, and he plans to return. In the meantime, he would appreciate hearing from any alumni who have memories of his great uncle. Write him at 1354 W. Rosemont, Apt. 2, Chicago, II 60660.
