Dedication Here is an actual account of our ALAURUM reporter’s interview with this year’s dedicatee, Mr. Melvin R. Miller. Reporter: Mr. Miller: Reporter: Mr. Miller: Reporter: Mr. Miller: Reporter: Mr. Miller: Reporter: Mr. Miller: Mr. Miller, since you have been chosen this year, I would like to ask you a few ques- tions. First of all, what high school were you graduated from? New Brighton High School. After graduation what did you do? I attended Westminster College where I obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree and the University of Pittsburgh where I obtained my Master of Education. While obtaining your education, did you participate in any sports? Yes, both in high school and college I took part in football and basketball. Where and when did you first begin teaching and what have you taught? My first teaching position was here in New Brighton High School where I began twelve years ago. At various times throughout my career I have given instruction in English I, English II, Modern History, World History, Problems of Democracy, Myth- ology, Consumer Science, and Salesmanship. At present, I am teaching Junior Ameri- can History and Economics. As everyone knows, you are head basketball coach in New Brighton. Would you mind telling us your teams’ records and to what you attribute your success? I have been head coach for only six years. During that time the teams I have coached have succeeded in obtaining two Section Championships. These were in 1947 and 1951. They have occupied second place twice and third place twice. The secret of anyone’ success is hard work. Reporter: | Are you satisfied with your choice of profession? Mr. Miller: Naturally there are drawbacks and discouragements in every profes- sion. However, the satisfactions one gets from teaching and being in constant touch with young people far outweigh any difficulties one encounters. It is a real joy to work with them. They are, as a group, at the happiest and most carefree age in our society. They reflect the constant changes that are occurring in our society. Being with students often makes me feel as if I am a student instead of a teacher performing his life’s work. Therefore I am exceedingly happy in my chosen profession. Reporter: | Thank you for your time given for our interview. Congratulations are also in order for you as the recipi- ent of the honor bestowed upon you by the ALAURUM Staff of 1952. [4]
