'SEK' es ff it r 1523 ., fZGf..I. -' ,fig GJ.. ., NVILLIAM A. ELLIOTT, A.M., L.H.D. qi A 9, if B K Professor of Greek Language and Literature. 1 Truly a veteran in the service of Allegheny, lloc Bill has given many years of his life to the de- yelopment and betterment of his Alma Mater. Ile has been able to survey the growth of a struggling institution of old to the new Allegheny of to-day. More than this, he may well feel that he has done much to effect the change, for his services have been invaluable. VVith his spirit of optimism and enthusiasm enriched by his long experience, Professor Elliott continues to boost and build the college and its life. CLARENCE FRISBEE ROSS, A.M., Litt.D. an A 9, 4: B K Professor of Latin Language and Literature. Dean of Men and Registrar. Dr, Ross accomplishes his thousand-fold duties in such an efficient way that we sometimes lose sight of the personality which is back of his executive ability. Those -who are fortunate in coming into closer association with this busy Dean and Registrar can readily appreciate his sympathetic, kindly manner and his sincere interest in the students' welfare. To successfully manage and administer to over tive hundred students requires unlimited energy and patience, and Dr. Ross has proved that he possesses these essential qualities in a very large measure. CHARLES LING, Ph.D. E A E Professor of Physics and Astronomy. Dr. Ling Ends a great deal of enjoyment in having a friendly chat on the merits of the city of cities -Aflenver. But he has little time to indulge in such a pleasure, for VVilcox Hall and the Newton Observa- tory constantly summon him to work. Dad is a learned physicist, astronomer, and weather prophetg in the last named capacity he finds especial favor among those interested in spring and fall parties. OSCAR P. AKERS, Ph.D. B T, E E Professor of Mathematics and Surveying. Despite his having been awarded the golf championship last season. Dr. Akers is the very antithesis of the big stick policy in classroom administration. VVhile reading the minutes at a faculty meeting or buying butter at the weekly market, Pop displays an ever present dignity which characterizes him as a big man in more ways than one. RICHARD EDXVIN LEE, Sc.D. ::AE,AX2,-LBK Professor of Chemistry. While Dr. Lee's interests are varied, ranging from education and public health to wireless and batting averages, he occasionally finds time to discuss the relative merits of motor cars. As a teacher of chemistry, his expositions are shorn of terrifying technicalities. lYhile he possesses an exact and intimate knowl- edge of the science, he imparts it to his students in a clear and entertaining manner. As one of Alle- gheny's most enthusiastic athletic fans, he has been invaluable in the development of our athletic program. ALICE HUNTINGTON SPALDING. Dean of VVomeng Instructor in Public Speaking To speak adequately of Miss Spalding, who holds the position of Dean of Women of Allegheny Col- lege would require more space and more gifted paragiaphers than the Kaldron affords. Her dramatic ability and her excellencies in public speaking demand special notice. For the rest, it suffices to say that she has held her present position since 1911 and is likely to hold it indefinitely. A Hulings Hall without Miss Spalding is beyond the Alleghenian's power of imagination. 1 My ...,.. ..... .................. - ,...,. N CD, C5
