Graduate of Nurses' Training
Dr. Sherbon, Iowa born, Florence Brown received her doctor of philosophy degree from Iowa University in 1892. After a year's teaching in Des Moines High School, she entered the Iowa State hospital at Independence for nurses' training. Following her graduation in 1895, she became superintendent of nurses at the hospital, a post she held until 1899. During the following year, until 1900, she was superintendent of the Iowa University hospital.
She returned then to University life, and received a doctor of medicine and a master of arts degree in 1904. In 1904, she married a classmate, Dr. John Sherbon, with whom she became an owner of the Victoria sanitarium, Colfax, Iowa. They resided here until 1916. In 1916, Dr Sherbon began field research work for the Federal Children's bureau, the survey including Indiana and Wisconsin, and completed this work in 1917. In the summer of 1917, she came to Kansas to substitute for the chief of the division of Child Health of the Kansas Board of Health.
In the fall of 1917, she was made director of the department of physical education for women at the University of Kansas. During the next two years, she was responsible for the establishment of the home nursing and child care courses in the curriculum here. From 1919 to 1920 Dr. Sherbion served as chief of the division of Child Hygiene of the Kansas State Board of Health, but returned to the University in 1921 to teach the courses she had produced.

Clapper Loses Life Witnessing Vital Fight Over Marshall Islands
Pearl Harbor, (INS) — Raymond Clapper. American newspaperman killed in a plane crash over the Marshall islands, lost his life in an attempt to witness a showdown fight with the Nipponese navy and to compare the European and Pacific wars at first hand.
So Frank E. Mason, special assistant to the secretary of the navy, reported yesterday as he arrived at Pearl Harbor with the columnist's personal effects.
Mason revealed that Clapper, who was killed in a collision between two American planes over eniwetok Atoll, was assigned to the flagship carrier in the task force and making the first strike on Kwaialieh atoll.
For two days the planes bombed the enemy positions without encountering any resistance worthy of the name and finally Clapper requested permission of a torpedo squadron commander to accompany him on the last day's flight over Eniwitok, from which the Japanese had not fired for two days.
Clapper took off expecting a routine flight, Mason reported. The plane completed its bombing run and joined other craft in lining up for the flight home.
"A wing man came up from behind." Mason told correspondents, "and the planes collided so suddenly that it was assumed the crash killed everyone aboard instantaneously. Both planes plummeted into Eniwetok Lagoon. The group commander immediately circled down over the spot to the surface of the water, but reported that he found only two oil slicks."
Memorial services were held at sea, conducted by two chaplains.
Germans Detect Planes By Using Infra-Red Rays
London, (INS)-Reports reaching Switzerland yesterday claimed that Germany has developed the use of infra-red rays for detecting Allied blind-bombing formations through cloud layers.
The Germans, according to a Berne dispatch to the London Daily Herald, have carried out successful experiments at Siemenshalske and general electric factories with search lights emitting powerful infra-red rays.
