Dr. Walker D. Albert—Chemistry, Physics Department A scientist is the man who really knows his stuff. His students think that he is grand, but chemistry is plenty tough. Mr. Clay C. Ruff—Biological Science Department He has a friendly interest in each of us it seems. For everytime he comes to class, his face just fairly beams; He really taught us many things- -of trees, and leaves and flowers, His helpfulness and all he taught will linger through the hours. Mr. Kcllar Shclar—Biological Science Department Beetles, birds, and bugs— He docs his best with all; If ever you are seeking help, He’s in the Science Hall. Dr. Ralph A. Waldron—Chairman of Science Department He is a science teacher—a fact you no doubt know. And then he likes photography which keeps him on the go; If ever we were seeking help, we found him close at hand, He never shirked from helping us—we think he's simply grand. 22
