In Memoriam Miss Irma Graham was a dedicated teachei whose brilliant dreams of great things for the Women ' s Physical Education Department were only iust begun. A vivacious, happy, seemingly carefree young woman, she will be greatly missed by the profession, as well as her many friends. She hod devoted her life to teachmg, coming to Pasadena in 1929, spending most of her years at PCC and Muir and climaxing her career by becoming chairman of the Women ' s Physical Education Department last September. By her membership in numerous professional organizations she exer- cised wide influence on the junio r college program. She became a recog- nized authority on archery, presenting several institute sessions and teaching in summer schools of several colleges. Her sabbatical leave was spent visiting physical education departments of foreign countries so she might bring back something of value to the profession. A perfectionist in dress, she was famous for her hat story which was told many times on request and always proved equally funny. She was a lover of good books, a charming hostess, a loyal friend and a devoted teacher. Her epitaph might well read: jnt no days but school days. ' — Elizabeth Jensen Former Chairman, Department of Women ' s Physical Education

In Memoriam Dr. Clyde Pfeiffer, administrative dean at Pasadena City College since 1954, passed away suddenly on Sunday, May 11, as a result of a heart attack. Dr. Pfeiffer was an out- standing administrator, well recognized throughout California, and highly esteemed by the students and faculty at Pasadena City College who worked so closely with him. Dr. Pfeiffer, who came to California from Pennsylvania, received his undergraduate col- lege training at several institutions and his bachelor ' s and master ' s degrees from Occidental College where I had the privilege of having him as a student in several of my classes. He went on to complete his doctorate in education at the University of California at Los Angeles. He came to Pasadena as an instructor and then shortly became an administrator, first in an elementary school, then at V ilson Junior High School, before joining the John Muir College staff as assistant principal in 1946. With the merger of John Muir with Pasadena City College in 1953, Dr. Pfeiffer became administrative dean at Pasadena City College. His contribution to the college has been invaluable. During the lasi several years, his work as chairman of the Student Personnel Committee, the Theater Arts Board, and of the Athletic Board have brought him into contact with many students and faculty, and his service as a member of the Pasadena Educa- tion Salary Committee has been particularly significant for faculty members. The fact that Dr. Pfeiffer worked long hours under heavy pressure without doubt helped to bring on his attack. Dr. Pfeiffer ' s enthusiasm, his devotion to duty and his honest and straight forward approach to all problems wili be greatly missed. As one means of expressing their affection for Dr. Pfeiffer, his friends and associates have joined in creating a scholarship fund for his children. All the students and faculty at Pasadena City College join in an expression of sympa- thy to Mrs. Pfeiffer and to Dr. Pfeiffer ' s two children. He has left behind many memories of a fine friend and strong supporter of Pasadena City College. —William B. Langsdorf, President Pasadena City College
