G. ROBERT CLARK, THIRD HONORARY MEMBER By DAN DAHLE, PH.D. Bristol Myers Co., Hillside, N.y. THE ENACTMENT of the Food, Drug& CosmeticAct in 1938 brought up the question of Color Certifica- tion, so I went looking for a man who should know something about colors. Mr. Jablonski, the color expert in the Food & Drug Administration New York Station, told me he could spare a young man who was working as an assistant in his laboratory. That's how I met Bob Clark. As for the statistical data on Bob, he was born in 1910 out where men are men to be more exact, in Colorado. He was exposed to the usual hazards of civilization, such as public school, high school, and finally the University of Colorado. He took them for A.B. and M.A. degrees and they in turn took him for a teaching assistant. Like most college boys, Bob had to make extra money while in school. He worked as a lifeguard and also as a bouncer in a mountain dance hall. In 1937 he joined the F.&D.A. in Denver, and later via Boston came to New York and into coal tar color work. Now, anyone who really works with colors frequently looks like an Indian in war paint. Bob was no exception. In fact his name soon became connected with the biblical story about Joseph. Joseph had a coat of many colors, Bob's work shirt was famous for the same reason. We always said that any time we needed a sample of any certified dye. we could scrape some off Bob's shirt. All in all, it shows that Bob worked hard at it. At the end of the war he was in full charge of the F. & D.A. certified color work and next in line for the job he now holds-- Chief of the Cosmetic Division. He succeeded to that in 1946. In the meantime he had married, built himself a house outside of Washington, and discarded his west- ern boots. But he still had excess energy. So late in 194:5 he went back to school at night. For that the Georgetown University in Wash- ington, D.C., awarded him a Ph.D. degree in 1947. That in a few words is the man we are honoring today. Much more could be said about him but after all, he is well known to all of us. 347
