Resident Professor Muck is the one professor who can claim he has the whole college in a single class, namely, Gym. But as there is no- need of pedagogic ability in this subject, we must ac- cept the testimony of our scientific brethren to the effect that he is a most proficient pro- fessor of chemistry, explaining away such complex intricacies as CuCNOH, KQSbOD GH-100-WH20 and YtNO3 with very direct references to apples and oranges. If there is anything in the adage As ye see a man, so is he we ourselves can readily concur to the ap- praisal of the B. S. hopefuls, for at all the smokers and get-togethe-rs of the campus, Muck is always a welcome guest. Page Eight According to the last analysis Prof, Bill has been among our professors for the last twenty-three years. During this time he has been engaged in many versatile activities, of which, owing to the lack of space, we may mention but a few, namely Cunemmlynjz He has been a member of the Bethlehem School Board, President of the Board of Directors of the Bethlehem Public Library, Provincial Archivist of the Mo.ravian Church, President of the Moravian Historical Society, and last, but not least, author of the widely read book Life of John Hussf' - To us, however, he is far better known in what is possibly his greatest realm of achieve- ment, namely, teaching. The hours spent in Education, Logic, English, Greek, Religion, in spite of our vacuity, will never be forgotten. Precisely, what we will remember most is con- tained in two of his well-kno-wn adages, name- ly: Thinking is a most exhilarating exercise' and Well-Yes-and No! ! ROY DIEHL HASSLER, B.S.

A tlltllll mlt W't A FIHEVI STAY T Il ui in I q 6 ut in 2 . ln our early years at Moravian, we often likened the power of Doctor Mofses' satire to the thunder-bolts of that 'cluppiter Stator about whom we occasionally read. This fact should impress Dr. Moses with the idea that in spite of his fears, we really did learn some Latin from him. Should we dare to tell him this in person, he would probably reply: Mirabile dictul Now, however, with the passing of time and the advent of a little more knowledge both of Latin and the world, we are inclined to change our former appraisal of him by fusing two separate quotations from Horace, and classifying him both as a man, Integer vitae scelerisque purus and one of whom it might be said: 0 Fons Bandusiae, Splendidior Vitro. HOYVARD H. HOFFMAN, A.B. W. VIVIAN MosEs, B.D., P1-LD. Head Professor of Latin and English House has been a most faithful professor since 1913, and not only that, but he, also, has ever stood at the helm in College Athletics. When the last snow falls he is out in person and with purse to shovel the snow off the ten- nis courts for the initial practice of the ever- successful tennis campaign. His Felix, for- ever, sways a reigning hand in all tourna- ments, his sweat on the brow is one that brings fear upon opposing teams. Heis known for his numerous love sets, which ring in the memories of all who are specializing in tennis under his supervision. Being pro-fessor in French, Spanish, and German, he has shown his ability by posting slogans on the bulletin board which not only lead his boys to victory but also, being implanted in their memory, germinate athletic activity in every student. His generosity to all branches of campus ac- tivity gives him a peculiar place in the hearts of all. Page Nine
