7a ' Ijau, fyosi Many IjecM 6 Batch has spent his last year among us. Those of us who have been for¬ tunate to have had Mr. Batchelder will ever remember his wit, understanding, and inimitable story-telling. Batch first came to our hallowed halls as our football coach in 1923. His teams enjoyed a new-found success under their new coach. His track teams have since continued the traditions which Batch has given to all his boys. Many of his former pupils are now on our faculty. Having taught half the city of Malden, Batch is known and liked by a larger fan club than many movie stars can boast. His familiar “Get the facts” has become a war-cry for hundreds of boys and girls. Anyone who has Batch soon learns many pertinent facts—not exactly in the field of mathematics, but adding to one’s general education,—his apple orchard, the twins, the beauties of Wisconsin, and other anecdotes have made many a class loosen up and enjoy math as taught by Batch. It is with the utmost regret that we say farewell to you. We hope you will carry away many pleasant memories of your pupils and our school. We wish you all the success and happiness in the world for your new life. He has made math come to life for many of his classes Well-known for his championship track teams, he has with the use of experiments such as this one. worked untiringly for many years with his boys.
