No. it's not a sign for a romantic interlude. It’s just one of the binck-outs so cleverly planned by Mr. Pole. The Japs won’t catch us unprepared if he has anything to do with it. MISS MARGARET RHOADS Mathematics, Laboratory Schools From whnt we hear, if they ever quit needing math teachers. Miss Rhoads could easily switch to home ec., her cooking is so luscious. Yum! MR. CLAY C. RUFF Biological Science Hrumph. Hrumph! It’s hard to spell, but this funny little noise is the chief characteristic of good ol‘ Papa Ruff. MISS GLADYS SANDERSON Accompanist, Secretary Health Education Dept. It’s a puzzle to us how she controls all those stops and pedals and keys. You’d think it'd keep an octopus busy trying to use them all. But, although it’s a marvel to us, she surely sends forth beautiful melodies from the tips of her fingers and toes. MR. JAMES A. SHEEHY Speech That walk . . . that talk . . that manner! You can guess his interests center around the stage. DR. PIERREPONT NICHOLS English Ahem. Ahem. Puh! Puh! A good sport—Doc. And what's this about how they courted in the old days? MR. LEROY MYERS Blankety-blank-blank-blank! Gee, I love Slippery Rock! Geography Pag? T u.rnty-l L'0

MISS FLORENCE HOLLOWAY French, Latin, Laboratory Schools Parlez-vous Francois? No, I don’t, but she does. I don’t even know if I have this spelled right. How about it, Miss Holloway? MR.

MR. KELLAR SHELAR Biological Science We junior take off our hat to Mr. Shclar, our class advisor. Wo ve had some bad bumps, but he's helped to soothe the bruises for us. DR. SEWELL SLICK Social Studies, Laboratory Schools Slick, eh! That can mean any number of things, but we'll always think the best, 'cause that’s what we've always been shown. DR. CARLE B. SPOTTS English; Chairman English Department We’d think Dr. Spotts and his debate team would go crazy keeping their arguments in tune with the times—things are so topsy-turvy. DR. ELIZABETH STADTLANDER Sixth Grade. Laboratory Schools She displays the sort of frankness anyone would welcome. Oh yes, and another thing we often think of in connection with her, is her beloved dog, Corky. DR. WARREN P. STRAIN Geography. Laboratory Schools Here’s a perky brain trust, if there ever was one. His classes surely can’t be called snoozer’s heaven. You have to be a Johnny on the spot, or you'll get all befuddled. MR. N. KERR THOMPSON Health Education Coach is president of the crew hair-cutters. The barber must have gone to sleep on the job, eh. Coach? Never-the-less, he’s a swell guy, and we all think worlds of him. MR. JOHN VAN VORST Music, Chairman Music Department He’s a reg'lar feller, if he is a bit shy, and can he ever tickle the ivories. DR. A. P. VINCENT Physics, Coach of Track Jack of all trades and master of them all- -that’s Doc for you. Page Twenty-three
