| 183 | Dr. Phyllis Anne “Anne” (Hiltner) Baer, PhD (1941-2010) Education: Reed College, B.S.; Oregon State University, PhD - Physical Chemistry. Occupation: Professor, Researcher, Author Married Dr./Professsor Eric Baer, PhD in 1999. BIO: Anne Hiltner, Case Western Reserve’s first female professor of engineering and an internationally recognized scientist and engineer, died Monday after a courageous battle with illness. She was 69. “Our campus has lost a remarkable academic leader,” President Barbara R. Snyder said. “As a woman in the sciences and engineering, Professor Hiltner’s entire career served as an inspiration to others. As a researcher of extraordinary ingenuity and accomplishment, she transformed her field. Her impact on the University, and on students and colleagues worldwide, cannot be overstated. We will miss her.” Professor Hiltner came to the University in 1967, after earning a doctorate in physical chemistry from Oregon State University. She served as a research associate for one year with chemistry professor Irvin M. Krieger, and then joined the laboratory of professor Eric Baer, who was chairman of the Department of Macromolecular Science at the time. The connection with professor Baer proved fortuitous, as the pair forged a powerful scientific collaboration that persisted to the present. They also discovered personal compatibility, marrying in 1999. “The dream of every faculty member is to try harder, harder,” Baer said. “She always climbed mountains.” From the very beginning, Baer recalled, his colleague was committed to excellence. Whether working in the laboratory, writing papers or advising graduate students, Hiltner remained laser-focused. “She was a projects person,” Baer said. In 1974, Hiltner became the University’s first female member of the engineering faculty when she became an assistant professor of macromolecular engineering. Seven years later she founded the Center for Applied Polymer Research (CAPRI), an organization that encouraged collaboration across disciplines and ultimately laid the groundwork for the program that she considered her greatest achievement: receipt of a 10-year, $40 million grant from the National Science Foundation, Science and Technology Center (STC), the Center for Layered Polymeric Systems (CLiPS). The NSF received more than 160 applications for STC funding, and gave awards to six. CLiPS is the university’s first and only STC, and involves several other university partnerships nationwide as well as collaboration with the Cleveland Metropolitan School District. “The STC made her feel she had reached to the top of Everest,” Baer said. “She really reached the pinnacle of her career.” Over her career, Professor Hiltner published nearly 400 articles in peer-reviewed journals, and received multiple honors from professional scientific organizations. She was a Fellow of the American Chemical Society’s Division of Polymeric Materials, the American Institute for Medical Biological Engineering, and the High Polymer Physics Division of the American Physical Society. In 2001, Professor Hiltner was the recipient of the American Chemical Society’s Cooperative Research Award in Polymer Science and Engineering. In 2004, Case Western Reserve named her the Herbert Henry Dow Professor of Science and Engineering. That same year, the Society of Plastics Engineers’ Thermoplastic Materials and Foam Division presented Professor Hiltner its annual outstanding achievement award. In 2008, she received the American Chemical Society’s Award in Applied Polymer Science. In announcing the honor, the society cited Professor Hiltner’s pioneering contributions in understanding the connections between hierarchical structure and properties of polymers, their blends and composites. Even with all of the recognition, Baer said, “her greatest joy was her involvement with the graduate students. She loved the creative, productive side of her work.” Hiltner did not want formal remembrances or donations made in her name, Baer said. The greatest tribute others can make to Hiltner, he explained, is to continue her creative mission through their academic work. • http://blog.case.edu/case-news/2010/09/10/pioneering_engineer_professor_anne_hiltner_dies • Obituary - Phyllis Anne Hiltner: http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/name/phyllis-hiltner-obituary?pid=145142059&view=guestbook • Arrangements under the direction of Berkowitz-Kumin-Bookatz, Cleveland Heights, OH. | Hiltner, Phyllis Anne (I69)

| 185 | Edward Howell, taught dance with wife at studio, MDCC Memorial services for Edward Howell, who with his late wife Argela twirled and dipped through a lifetime in dance, will be held Friday. Mr. Howell, a resident of Coral Gables, died Sunday at 74. The Howells began dancing as high school sweethearts in Chicago. Their career would eventually find them dancing in nightclubs in New York, across Canada and in Japan with the USO. They played “the so-called circuit,” said Mr. Howell’s nephew, Charles Watson. In later years, the dancing couple operated a dance studio and taught classes for Miami Dade Community College. Mrs. Howell died a year and a half ago. “They loved to dance. That was their life,” said Watson. Their act, which they first took on the road in the mid-1930s, was billed as a comedy dance routine. It began with the impression of a classic, formal, elegant performance. Then suddenly, the music quickened and Mr. Howell was twirling his wife above his head in a fast-packed acrobatic show. “It was quite an act, “ said Watson. “Very entertaining.” As teachers, Mr. Howell and his wife specialized in ballroom dancing, including the foxtrot, waltzes and the tango. But they also kept up with all the latest crazes, said Watson. Besides his nephew, survivors include a grandniece, Gwen Watson. Elk and memorial services will be at 7:30 p.m. at the Van Orsdel Coral Gables Chapel. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Florida State Elks Children’s Hospital.

| 190 | Elizabeth Hempleman’s Line Elizabeth Hempleman, daughter of George Hempleman the First and Margaret Duffy Hempleman, was born near Philadelphia in 1777, and married George Weaver in 1800, in Hardy County, Virginia. They, in company with her father and brother George, started on that journey with two horses and a wagon, but in those days of travel, across the Blue Ridge mountains it was almost an impossibility with an empty wagon, and they, like their brother had to abandon the wagon somewhere in the mountains, and load all their possessions on the two horses, and the family traveling on foot to Clarke County, Ohio, and late in the fall they settled on a farm west of South Charleston, Ohio. It being late in the fall, no houses were obtainable, and they were compelled to live in an open camp for want of better shelter, there being plenty of timber in those days, they had no trouble in keeping warm, by burning large heaps of logs, and by these log heaps they did all their cooking. They lived in Clarke County, about ten years, in 1817 or 1818 they moved into Madison County, Ohio, and engaged in farming and the raising of stock. They were prosperous and accumulated a large fortune for those days, leaving about three thousand acres of land to their children when they died. To George and Elizabeth Hempleman Weaver were born eleven children as follows: Catherine, Elizabeth, Jacob, Solomon, John, Joseph, George, Margaret, Sarah, David and Mary. | Hempleman, Elizabeth (I23)

| 199 | Elizabeth's early history is featured in her brother George's obituary. Pioneer Passes George Morris, 93, succumbs to illness at farm home in Allen-co Columbus Grove, Oct. 17 – (Special) – George Morris, retired farmer, of Monroe-tp, died at his home Sunday morning, following an illness of general debility. Had he lived until Thursday, he would have reached the age of 84 years. He lived his life-time in the some district, three miles southwest of Columbus Grove, where he was born in 1833. Up to a few years ago, across the road, less than 60 rods away, lived Mrs. Elizabeth Hartman, who was 90 years of age at the time she died. She too was born in the same district in which she lived. Morris and Mrs. Hartman were children of Judge Henry Morris, one of Allen-co’s first white settlers. The first white settler had arrived in Lima just two years before George Morris was born. A year before the Shawnees started their westward trek and Allen co was cleared of Indians. Mrs. Hartman was not quite 30 when she was married and for 70 years she and her brother lived on adjoining farms. Altho the district is southwest of Columbus Grove, the farm lands lie in the Monroe-tp, Allen-co. Morris saw the dense forests of northern Allen-co developed into fertile fields of the farming community. He is survived by five children, Mrs. Maggie Morris Trumbo, of Columbus Grove; John B. Morris of Rushville, Ind., the Misses Anna and Catherine Morris and George Morris, Jr., residing at the family home. His wife died many years ago. Services will be held at 2 p.m. Tuesday at the country residence. Interment will be in Truro cemetery, just south of his home. The Lima News, Lima, Ohio.
