ELMER H. PHELPS Last sprirtg saw the retirement of Mr. Elmer Phelps, a member of the History Department. Mr. Phelps was a master at our school from 1930 until his departure in the spring of 1957. Mr. Phelps received his A. B. degree from Dartmouth in 1919, and his M. A. from Harvard in 1929. After his graduation from Dartmouth he was appointed as a master at the Wheeler School in North Stonington, Gonn. He remained there until 1920 when he went to Dean Academy in Franklin, New Hampshire. In 1926 Mr. Phelps transferred to Brookline High School where he remained until his appointment to English High School in 1930. Mr. Phelp ' s loyalty to the school was unquestioned. His sincere devotion to his profession, his deep concern in the welfare of the pupils, his great love for baseball, and his various dissertations on things in general will make him long and fondly remembered by all. irn nNemoriam BRACK, J.
