1'Cil ~an LASTING HONOR: The ]a attorney Lowell Davies, who pre- sided over the rebirth of the Globe, loved chairs. Antique 1- ers knew it, and his home held 68 chairs. In his latter years, he'd sit in an antique shop chair, pretend- ing to test it, and enjoy a little nap. In those same years he was a counselor to the USD college of arts and sciences. Now comes an honor due him: establishment of the Lowell Davies Chair at USD. "But this chair is different," Dean C. Joseph Pusateri explains. "It's not a position, it's a chair. Every spring we'll choose the most deserving professor and order an- other chair and another plaque, and it'll be his to keep." THE NAMES: Sheldon Camp• bell, president of the Zoo, is off for the Scottish Highlands. He'll tell the California condor story to delegates to the World Wilder; ness Congress at Nairn. ... Ar- chitect Roy Drew, trying to match ornate window mouldings in the addition to the Helen K. and James S. Copley Library at University of San Diego, ha a problem. He discovered the San- tee firm called Naos, one of six in the U.S. that specializes in copy- ing classic forms. Artist Louis Martin duplicated the moulding in plaster and clay. Then epoxy laminates were used to make concrete forms. (Pres. Mike Mar- shall has a staff of 11 at Naos, which derives from the Latin word for the inner chamber of a church or temple.) ...
