JOHN A. YODZIS B.S. in Biology, 234 S. Hickory St., Mt. Carmel, Pa. Jack was one of | Pennsylvania’s most pronounced propagandists on campus. He cornered a the newspaper business on campus for two years, but for himself preferred } the Mount Carmel Item. He was a charter member of the Coal Cracker Club. Of his many talents he contributed especially to campus musical activities. From clarinetting with the Dixieland Four and the Dance Band, to solos with the Glee Club, to singing basso profundo in the Mount Quartet, he was right at home on stage. Frequently seen at Valley ac- tivities, he was a card-carrying member of the White House set. Few may remember how to spell his name, but far fewer will forget Jack and his grin. | | IN MEMORIAM PHILIP J. STUMPF EX-’52 “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that who- soever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”’ ST. JOHN 3:16 99

EDWIN J. WARD B.S. in Economics, 27 Drake St., Malverne, N.Y. Probably the most versa- tile member of the senior class, Ed distinguished himself as an outstanding athlete, capable student, and conscientious worker in extracurricular affairs. In sports he was a monogram winner in track and football, and participated in intramurals as well. Under his presidential administration, the Metropolitan Club had its most successful era in recent years. He also held offices in the Monogram Club and the Athletic Association and was a sports columnist for the Echo. Ed was noted for his cheerful disposition and open outlook on life. Though a hard worker, he never let anything inter- fere with his sleep. In his immediate future he was to live the life of a Marine officer. JAMES E. WERNER A.B. in English, 18 N. Chase St., Cumberland, Md. It is a rarity to find someone with as amiable a personality as ““Hoot.’’ Studious to the degree which paid off with honors, this quiet, subtle man kept voluminous class notes which will remain a legend to all who had occasion to borrow them. ‘“Hoot”’ was often seen with his brow wrinkled in thought considering weighty problems, ranging from his touching love of Morpheus to his final contribution to the College, the Mountain Echo, which he co-edited. In all phases of his work he did a wonderful job. If he sustained the dynamic interest in his work which he possessed, his future in journalism would be bright and promising. EDWARD ATWATER WITT B.S. in Economics, 51 Afton Ave., Crafton, Pa. Ed left those who knew him a wealth of pleasant memories of time well spent in his company. Bridge, tennis, track, and intramural sports found him an enthusiastic competitor. A staunch friend, worthy of the title, in four years at the Mount he en- deared himself to many men. Another member of the Pennsylvania group, he had high ambitions together with confidence and ability necessary for their attainment. Keen of intellect, of definite purpose, an honor student and a gentleman, a rosy future seemed destined for Atwater in law school and throughout life. 98 a a i i ae a i aa
