He brings to Prep his many years of teaching expe- rience at Georgetown University, and is now a Senior class master and a religion teacher to Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors. He works quietly around the campus, but results are evident in such things as a Christmas food drive and tutoring programs for underprivileged chil- dren. In his iirst year here Father Burns is known and respected as a dedicated and concerned individual. MR. DAVID SAUTER, SJ., is one of the most conscientious teach- ers at Georgetown Prep. He teaches Latin and English to Sopho- mores and Juniors, and moderates the Debate Club. His time outside of school is occupied prefecting Junior Corridor Cwhere his friends call him The Toucanvj and being a consultant of the House. MR. THOMAS WRIGHT can rightly be called The Math Teach- er's Math Teacher . His 1967-8 season at Prep caps forty-six contin- uous semesters of Mathematics classes, with no end in sight. As the moderator of the Math Club and a veteran instructor of almost every grade level and course, whether it be Trig, Algebra, or Analysis, he is well-qualified to be the head of the school's Math Department and a member of the Admissions Committee.

Visit a Biology class sometime and you can see twenty- two years of teaching experience in action. The use of the latest audio-visual aids indicates that Mr. Coupe has not lost his desire to improve as a teacher. His enthusiasm, experience and desire for growth mark him as a man totally devoted to the purposes of this institu- tion. MR. GEORGE WILLIAMS, S.J., is a bright young man who was snatched by the Jesuits from a pastoral existence in Baton Rouge, La. Rumor has it that a traumatic childhood experience caused him to become a scholastic. He is best known for his white socks, which have become a landmark around the schoolg his computer-like intelligence, however, enables him to be a first-rate Mathematics teacher. FATHER THEODORE E. A. BRADY, SJ., one of the unsung heroes of Georgetown Prep's faculty, is a class master and perennial Latin teacher whose knowl- edge of the Romans and their tongue inspires young minds. He has had a hand in every phase of student life: whether in the classroom or up in the stands at a football game, it's always Father Brady who lends his active support. Father Brady attends to every detail of Prep life. MR. MICHAEL SEHLER, S.J., otherwise known as the 'fjolly red giant , is new at Prep this year. He teaches Latin and Greek with the poise and finesse of a masterg when Mr. Sehler is not at his academic pursuits, he can often be found playing basketball or touch football. Rev. Theodore E. A.
