 She was very much interested. When Dr. Bunnell came to the Minnesota campus and inter viewed her Miss Cremeans de- cided she would "come for only one year." Dr. Bunnell smiled. If you come for one year, Miss Cremeans, you will stay for many"
 His prophecy was correct. Miss Cremeans stayed. In 1897, she was married to Gray s. lilly in Fairbanks, and the couple de- cided that Alaska would be their permanent residence. They plan ned and built their own home and this delightful residence at 906 Kellum Street has been the scene of many University social functions.
 Mrs. Tilly's summers have been spent in travel and in taking Ire fresher courses" to keep up with the top advances in her profes- sion. She has visited Europe, Cuba, the Panama Canal and Canada, and has covered most of the United States and practically all of Alaska, including remote Eskimo villages on the Arctic Coast.

 After being awarded her A.B. degree, Miss Cremeans continued on for her Masters degree, and did original laboratory research in nutrition with human subjects.
