MISS EULER MR. ANDERSON MISS FARISS MR. JONES HISTORY It is often said that history repeats itself. So it seems, with a second World War confronting us after only twenty years elapsing since a similar episode. For the student who has conquered the words on the yellow pages of a generally little used European history, the present crisis seems clear and interesting. Ancient, medieval, and United States history, sociology, economics, and civics are subjects taught by the history department. Pacific Rim is a course recently added. The history teachers are Mr. John R. Purcell, Mr. E. Dean Anderson, Miss Edith S. Clifford, Miss Doris Euler, Miss Jessie Fariss, Miss Mary A. Gray, Mr. Charles L. Jones, Mr. Clarence E. Oliver, Mr. Laurence Pratt, Miss Helen F. Sedgwick, Miss Edith E. Watt, and Mr. David Wise. MR. PURCELL MISS SEOGWICK
