Extractions: Samuel Wilks attended school in Denton, then studied architecture at North Texas State Teachers College. He received a B.A. in architecture in 1926. However his eyesight was not too good, and he feared that this would be a handicap if he pursured architecture as a profession so he decided on a career in mathematics. During session 1926-27 Wilks taught at a school in Austin, Texas and at the same time he began to study mathematics at the University of Texas. Here he was taught set theory and other courses in advanced mathematics by Robert Moore and he took courses in probability and statistics with E L Dodd. Wilks received an M.A. in mathematics in 1928 and during this time, in fact from 1927 until 1929, he was an instructor in mathematics. Wilks was awarded a fellowship to the University of Iowa where he studied for his doctorate. Here H L Rietz, who supervised his doctorate, introduced him to

Extractions: History has shaped our past; history will shape our future. Newton once said that he owned his success to his standing on the shoulders of scientific giants. History of statistics provides a ladder by which young statisticians climb to the shoulders of great statisticians. In the uneasy flow of human wisdom, statisticians have developped stochastic models of the ideal probability space, have built different inference bridges for crossing the gap between the data space and the probability space. To trace the development of these different models and of these inference methodologies is to inquire into the fasicnating intellectual tradition of statisticians and to test the null that staticians, together with scientists and engineers from other fields, have built the edifice of our scientific and social worlds.

Extractions: Wilks, Samuel Stanley (1906-1964), the father of mathematical statistics at Princeton and a leader in the development of that discipline in the United States, was born on his father's farm near the town of Little Elm in northern Texas. He began his education in a one-room schoolhouse in Little Elm, and later attended high school in nearby Denton. He took his bachelor's degree at North Texas State Teachers College, his master's at the University of Texas, and his Ph.D. at the University of Iowa, then the center for statistical study in the United States. He came to Princeton in 1933, and in 1944 was appointed professor of mathematics and director of the newly founded Section of Mathematical Statistics, positions he held until his death twenty years later. The twenty-one men who took their Ph.D.'s under Wilks played a leading role in the development of statistics in the United States and Canada. As graduate students, they had been inspired by his high expectations of them. Wilks was delighted when a student produced a fresh solution to a problem. ``Kind of a nice result,'' he would say in his Texas drawl, ``kind of pretty.'' Undergraduates responded equally well to his generous sharing of ideas and his challenging teaching; a number of senior theses written under him were published. Wilks was concerned with keeping theoretical and applied mathematics in close association and in having them contribute to other disciplines. As one of his students, Frederick Mosteller, first chairman of the Harvard department of mathematical statistics, said, ``Boundaries between disciplines, organizations, and people never lasted long in his mind, for he thought in terms of bridges, entrances, and opportunities.''

http://etc.princeton.edu/CampusWWW/Companion/statistics.html

Extractions: Statistics at Princeton was the creation of Luther P. Eisenhart and Samuel S. Wilks. Its history falls naturally into four periods: Wilks alone, World War II, postwar under Wilks, the early years as a department. Dean Eisenhart's vision brought Wilks to Princeton's Department of Mathematics in 1933. For the next eight or ten years, Wilks was the lone statistician in that department, building a sequence of courses, stimulating undergraduates, and starting to turn out Ph.D.'s. Much of his important research was carried out and published during this era. His influence on a variety of areas of application grew rapidly, ~~and his editorship of the Annals of Mathematical Statistics carried that journal through its crucial and formative decades. His pattern of ``write mathematics, and do applications'' became well established and was thoroughly conveyed to his students. During World War II Wilks became deeply involved in the activities of the National Defense Research Committee, both in the Applied Mathematics Panel and at Princeton, where SRG-P (Statistical Research Group-Princeton) and its branch at Columbia (``SRG-P Jr'') involved graduate students T. W. Anderson, P. J. McCarthy, F. Mosteller and D. F. Votaw, and brought in R. L. Anderson, W. G. Cochran, A. M. Mood, L. S. Savage, J. W. Tukey, J. D. Williams, and C. P. Winsor for varying periods. (Many of these names were to become familiar to statisticians in the decades that followed.) Merrill Flood became responsible for the Fire Control Research Group, involving in addition to mathematicians, physiologists, and engineers, C. P. Winsor, an engineer-turned-physiologist-turned-statistician, J. W. Tukey, a chemist-turned-topologist-turned-statistician, and G. W. Brown, a mathematician-turned-statistician.
