THE CAULDRON 1922 The manner in which Professor Pugsley has handled the hundred and one odd questions, relative to all phases of college life and college activities, has ranked him as one of the foremost and conspicuous figures of the School of Engineering. His pleasing personality, his unselfish attitude, his impartiality shown in the numerous college activities, these characteristics have made him popular among the upper and lower classmen. Moreover, these striking qualities have created a lasting impression upon the alumni who, when memories of their college days return, can- not help but recall the untiring eft ' orts of Professor Pugsley to place the School of Engineering of Northeastern College in a position among the best engineering colleges in the country.

5ot)n Putler J ugs lep John Butler Pugsley, registrar of the School of Engineering, Northeastern College, first saw the light of day November 21, 1882, at Somersworth, New Hamp- shire. In his childhood days, he attended Chandler Grammar School and later the Somersworth High School. He enrolled at Colby College, Waterville, Maine, in 1901, graduating in 1905 with the A. B. degree. While at College, he majored in mathematics and science. Along athletic lines, he had the distinction of being a three letter man, excelling in baseball, basketball, and football, being captain of the varsity baseball team in 1905 and captain of the varsity football team in 1903 and 1904. During his senior year, he was honored by election as class president. At the same time he was an active member of the Zeta Psi Fraternity, one of the oldest college fraternities in the country. During the summer following his graduation, Professor Pugsley attended Columbia Summer School, New York City, taking courses in School Administra- tion. From there he entered his professional career, educational work. From September, 1905 to February, 1918, he was principal of a number of high schools in New England. From then until the fall of 1918, he was Athletic Officer in the Twenty-sixth Division, A. E. F., in France. Directly upon his return from France, Professor Pugsley entered the School of Engineering, Northeastern College, as an instructor in mathematics and chem- istry. During the following year, the College had grown by such leaps and bounds that Dean Ell found himself overwhelmed with work. It was necessary to appoint a capable man to assume partial responsibility. Due to Professor Pugsley ' s inval- uable experience derived while serving young men both in civil and military life, he received the assignment in the winter of 1919 of registrar, a position he has filled with unusual success.
