-M Fourtee 1 Faculty Changes SCARCELY a year passes without changes in the personnel of the Manual faculty. The past year was no exception. Additions were made necessary because of marriages, resignations, and new requirements. Manual feels the loss of Miss Thompson and Miss Anderson both of whom were married during the summer vacation. Miss Thompson was married to Mr. Franklin H. Banta and is still a resident of Peoria. Miss Anderson was married to Mr. Roy Brand and is now residing in Champaign, Illinois. Mr. Fuller, teacher of mathematics and track coach, resigned to accept a position with the Sutliff and Case Drug Company. To each of you, Mrs. Banta, Mrs. Brand, and Mr. Fuller, we wish a long life of happiness and success. Miss T hompson's place as an English instructor was taken over by Miss Walmsley, an alumna of Manual and of Bradley. Miss Walmsley has had a number of years of teaching experience, she taught at Garfield School and comes to Manual from Roosevelt. Miss Coward, who replaced Miss Anderson in the commercial department, is also a graduate of Manual Q1928j. She did not continue her education imme- diately upon graduation from high school, but after working several years entered Bradley and was a member of the graduating class of 1936. A former Bradleyite, Mr. Becker, was appointed to fill the vacancy in the mathematics department and is coaching the sophomore basketball team. He graduated with the class of 1930 and won three letters both in basketball and baseball. After leaving college he spent two years in the commercial field, and then he received an appointment as teacher of mathematics and coach at the Hanover Illinois High School. His success was immediate and his basketball teams were always contenders for championship honors in tournament play. The vacancy in the commercial department left by Miss Reisz was filled by Mr. Bodine. Mr. Bodine has a B. S. degree conferred by Bradley as well as a Master's degree from Iowa University. His promotion came from an assistant principalship at Irving School. During the past years there were several practice teachers in the social science department, but because of the increase of students studying history, a full time teacher was needed. Mr. Pratt, who secured his education at Notre Dame University where he was an honor student in law, was appointed as a member of this department. These new teachers were well fitted for their places and soon adapted themselves to their new surroundings and conditions. The change was accom- plished with little apparent departure from the regular schedule.
