i I NET E E IV F O It T Y F I V E MR. DAUGHERTY, a new member of the Blake faculty of 1944-45, has come as a mathematics instructor. Mr. Daugherty graduated from Dickinson College, Carlisle. Pennsylvania, in 1925. Ten years later he received his M.A. degree from Syracuse University. Recently he has worked as a science instructor for the Army Air Forces’ meteorology and Navy V-12 courses. His knowledge of what the services want in mathematics and his ability to model his courses to suit their wishes is proving very valuable to Blake students. This year he taught first and second year Algebra and the mathematics review course which was offered to the seniors for the first time this year. We hope Mr. Daugherty's experience in teaching mathematics will benefit Blake boys for years to come. JOHN HENRY DAUGHERTY Mathematics Sc.B.. Dickinson: M.A., Syracuse University; Bucknel!

t ii i: P A I¥ O F C A L L ALDEN GIBSON VAUGHAN Latin B.A.. Dartmouth College: M.A., Ph.D., University of Pennsylvania O ’ SINCE Mr. Vaughan joined the faculty of Blake School in 1944. he has become one of the most popular masters of Blake. His quiet and reserved manner has gained for him the respect of all the members of the faculty and student body. Mr. Vaughan has participated eagerly and actively in student affairs. Besides teaching Latin. Mr. Vaughan has begun a course in Greek, which promises to be very successful. He has also served as Fourth Form adviser this year. As if this weren't enough, he volunteered to become the debating coach for the 1944-45 season. The success of this year’s Forum debate can also be credited to Mr. Vaughan. Such an attitude is greatly admired and appreciated. IN two years Mr. Parks has taken over some very important duties at Blake. His teaching duties are concerned with the Lower School, where he teaches mathematics and general science. Besides his academic activities, he has been active in sports. Under his capable leadership, the hockey team has enjoyed one of its most successful seasons in recent years. His coaching ability is by no means limited to hockey, for he coaches the Junior Varsity football in the fall and the A team basketball in the spring. During the summer months he is a counselor at Camp Lincoln, and in the early fall he helps Mr. Smith prepare the team for the coming season. Blake may consider itself fortunate to have the services of Mr. Parks. MERWYN EARL PARKS Mathematics, General Science B.S.. Iowa Wesleyan College: University of Iowa 20
