instructors that year. One in the clinical side and one in the experimental side. And I considered myself an experimental psychologist at that time.

And I told him that I was making more money than that doing odd jobs and so forth, and I didn't think I could get married on it. He said, “What do you want to get married for? Postpone that.” And I said no, I wasn't going to postpone it. Anyway, we became friendly and he got off his hobby horse and I guess recognized that I was a determined young student.

And once we run them on a test, you can have them. And that would supplement your food.” I didn't find it a very attractive idea. When I told the girl that I was hoping to marry about it, she practically went right out the window. But, at any rate, I agreed to take the job and I illustrated textbooks and went back to my old racket of commuting back to Dayton and doing work at the store on weekends. Because we both lived in Dayton, we could go see her family at the same time. And so we pieced it together and I was in the Psychology Department for four years, three years at, I think, $750 and one year at $999. Now, the record should not show that I lived on that because I supplemented that by a lot of other things that, again, I shouldn't have done because they pulled me away from spending my time on my graduate work. But in the meantime radio still held an attraction for me and while my master's research was a throwback to my days, that one year when I taught printing and mechanical drawing --
