Mrs. Gurney is an enthusiastic and a moving spirit in faculty discussion groups and classes. This year she or- ganized a Russian class and demon- strates her linguistic powers. Mr. Judd Lewis enjoys fishing and readies his tackle for the Spring sea- son. Living in the woods the Lewises maintain a bird feeding station and welcome other wild life--even stu- dents and faculty. Our director, Joseph Smiddy, is a popular after-dinner speaker with a fabulous col- lection of jokes. An able biologist he has combined his talents to develop a slide lec- ture on butterflies. Faculty Have Many Talents Besides their specialties which they teach with skill and understand- ing, the members of the faculty have many hobbies and special interests which they use for their own entertainment and the en- richment ofthe community. The faculty are a lively group. Hik- ing mountain trails, costume parties, discussion groups, chess and gardening are only a few of their activities. The Kaimens are folkdancers extraordinaire. They have a folk dance group on Thursday night at the college and then travel far and wide to dance with other groups. Hilcers, nature lovers, and party givers are also their titles.
