Class Studies -Films - Charts THESE FUTURE CHEMlSTS'prepare carbon dioxide through the wafer replacement method in Mr Blair s chemistry class During the February vacation, the faculty and students of M.H.S. were shocked by the news of the death of Mr. Robert M. Blair who was struck two weeks previous with a coronary thrombosis. Mr. Blair, a native of Glasgow, Scotland, came as a youth to Med- ford where he gained athletic fame by captain- ing the Mustangs as well as being a star in track. After high school, Bob Blair, as he was called by his many friends, attended Tufts University where his love for athletics led him to establish a B.A.A. record in the 220. When World War I broke out, he im- mediately joined the Army, but when the war was over, he went back to his studies at Tufts. After his graduation in 1922, Mr. Blair came to Malden where he has taught chemistry and physics until his death. Robert Blair will long be remembered by his many pupils, who have gone or will go on to serve in the world of science, a field which he greatly loved. Robert Blair B.S
