rf MR. HOWARD RODNEY EMERY A.B., Bowdoin, M,A., Harvard Dean, History, and Coach Mr, Emery, who is one ofthe most popular men on the campus, was promoted to the position of Dean this year, and his guidance work is fast winning him many new friends. Because of his Fine sense of humor, his class periods are always interesting and seem very short. On his Floor in Sturtevant he has won the sincere admiration of all the fellows because of his patience and squareness. Besides being one of the most popular teachers, Mr. Emery is also one of the best dressed, and his wardrobe must equal those ofthe dough-boys. Those of us who graduate this year will always remember him for the Fine friend and instructor he has been during our stay at Hebron. MR. CHARLES BURTON ARTHUR A.B., Dartmouth Field Secretary and Coach During the winter term Mr. Arthur temporarily deserted his new position of Field secretary to coach his Fifth crack hockey team. From 1935 until 1939 he was also an instructor in history at the Academy. His students were Firmly convinced that he had the text on the tip of his tongue, so seldom did he refer to it. Coach Arthur attended Hebron a few years ago, and would be mistaken for a student now by anyone who did not know him. A brilliant hockey coach, he has inspired team after team with a Hebron spirit seldom triumphed over.' Practicing right along with his men, he seems like a close teammate rather than a coach. The best of luck to a man who, by his teaching, advice, and coaching, gains the respect of every Hebron boy who comes in contact with him. i161

MR. CHARLES CLARKE DWYER A.B., Colby Science and Athletic Director MR. ARTHUR LEE FIELD A.B., Colby Registrar, Latin, and Mathematics Mr. Field has won a host of friends among the students and faculty of Hebron Academy. His quotations and puns have always been a source of enioyment to all who have heard them. This year he was relieved ofa few of his duties by the appoint- ment of Mr. Emery as Dean. Nevertheless, every student at one time or another has come into contact with Mr. Field. He has arranged our courses for us at the beginning of the year, and many have had the good fortune of having him in class. He has a remark- able ability to weave into his recitations many out- side topics and still be able to put his subiect across. He will always be a pleasant memory in our reminis- censes of Hebron Academy. Coach Dwyer is the sincere friend of every boy in Hebron. Since he first came to Hebron as a student, his devotion and loyalty to the school have been very apparent. Every student at Hebron at some time has stopped and talked with him, as he seems to be a father to everyone, and is able to make a boy per- fectly at ease in his presence. ln the last few years Coach Dwyer has not been an active coach here at school, but he has fulfilled his position as athletic director very successfully, as he has every other duty in his career. He has shown true Hebron spirit and has bred it in all Hebron men who know him. Before we leave, we wish to thank Coach Dwyer for all he has done for us, and in later life we shall look back on his guidance with pride and gratitude. ix .P is - P H IQXXXN lk

MR. ROBERT DRAYTON METCALF A.B., Amherst, Ed.M., Harvard English ln the hearts of the students of Hebron Academy, Mr. Metcalf is as firmly fixed as any Hebron tradition. His English classes are a real source of pleasure to us as we absorb the essentials of our Mother Tongue, drilled into us as only Metty can drill. lt is an almost impossible iob to stick Metty on any question con- cerning a former Hebron athlete, or on maior league baseball. He is the guiding hand behind both The Hebronian and The Green Parrot, and, if it were not for his ever-present advice, both the paper and the yearbook would not be what they are. The prominence of the Sigma Lambda Phi fraternity owes much to Metty's Fine work. Mr. Metcalf's versatility in many fields, plus the fact that he is thoroughly on the square in every association he has with Hebron men, has earned him the respect and affec- tion of everyone who knows him, and we sincerely wish a real friend the best of luck. MR. TRUMAN WILSON HOLLIS A.B., Bates Mathematics and Coach Coach Hollis is one of our oldest teachers in respect to service, which covers seventeen years. A very capable teacher, the boys whom he instructs are very fortunate. Besides excelling as a mathe- matics instructor, he coaches basketball and baseball, and his able direction has been the reason for He- bron's powerful basketball teams. Coach Hollis' witty remarks are oft repeated, and his classes are a source of enioyment to those who attend them. Boys work hard to receive a word of praise from the Coach, and the reward is well worth the effort. The Coach is a warm friend to all the boys, treating them in a way which they both admire and respect. In leaving, we wish to express our appreciation to an excellent instructor, capable coach, and sincere friend. T171 P l QLNXNN
