WILLIAM BETZ, A. B. Mr. William Betz was born in a small university town in Nassau, Germany, where he received his first schooling. When still a boy, he came to Rochester with his parents. He entered Wagner College, in this city, and was graduated at the age of fifteen. A year later he completed the classical course of the Rochester Free Academy. He was then admitted to the Sopho- more class at the University of Rochester, and was graduated after three years, in 1898. He was elected a member ot the Phi Beta Kappa Society, and was awarded the Townsend prize scholarship. In 1899, Mr. Betz began his work as a teacher of mathematics in the Rochester High School. In 1903, he was given charge of the department of mathematics in our school, which position he now holds. During the summers of 1902 and 1903, he traveled in Europe, giving particular attention to the methods of instruction used in German schools. Mr. Betz is a member of several mathematical societies. He believes in the importance of his chosen subject, and expects for it an auspicious future.
