Because Lorene Squire, '32, was unable to shoot ducks with a gun, she took up the hobby ten years ago of shooting them with a camera. Today she specializes in duck photography and travels hundreds of miles into remote lands and Saskatchewan in order to catch these shy fowls in their natural habitat. Miss Squires has "braved" dust storms and heavy rains to bring back her pictures. In the March 21 edition of "Life" magazine there is a page and a half devoted to this feminine photographer's accomplishments. In dramas while at the University.
