June, 1926 THE KERNEL Faculty Notes A number of the teachers who have proved to he efficient instructors dur- ing the past year, expect to leave Ox- ford at the close of school. Miss Mary Jacobs, the popular and capable director of music for the past four years, will teach in New Jersey. Miss ltehekah Hunter of the English department, expects to teach in a high school near Philadelphia. Those Sen- iors who took part in the class play, wish to express their appreciation of Miss Hunter’s patience and ability, in coaching “The Charm School. The boys will lose Mr. Schmidt, Ath- letic Coach. Mr. Schmidt has only been with us for one year, but he has raised the standard of the boys’ teams considerably. Miss Gladys Tobias, Latin and Span- ish Instructor, also plans to shake the dust of Oxford from her feet. Miss Tobias will return to her home in Wilkes-Barre, and may teach next year near that city. Mrs. MoOleary, of the second grade, has resigned her position in Oxford. She is now under quarantine for scar- let fever, her place being filled by Miss Helen Reisler. The marriage of Miss Oella Liggett of Carlisle, who taught many of us a large part of the Latin and Spanish that we know, to Mr. Malcolm Scott, of Oxford, will take place in the near future. The engagement of Miss B. . Hunt- er to Mr. Phillip Edgar Opp, now of Chester, was announced recently. Con- gratulations, Miss Hunter! Mrs. Fount Robinson of last year’s faculty, will receive the degree of A. M. at Vanderbilt University, Tennes- see, in June. She plans to teach next year. The Seniors wish all possible success to the teachers who are leaving this year, as well as to those of the faculty who expect to remain in Oxford.
