FIGURE 1.

Shown is a photograph of Professor Earl A. Evans, Jr. (center) surrounded by several distinguished colleagues formerly associated with the University of Chicago Department of Biochemistry, including (from left) Eugene P. Kennedy, Konrad Bloch, Lloyd Kozloff, and Donald D. Brown, in 1975 at the time of a celebration honoring Evans, who was then nearing his 65th birthday and retirement, for his thirty years of service (1942–1972) as chairman. The setting was in front of a large outdoor sculpture by Arnaldo Pomodoro, just behind the Cummings Life Sciences Center (1973), which then housed biochemistry.
