Students, faculty, alumni, and parents join in wishing him a speedy recovery. Also since this was Doc's last year at Pem-Day we of the Raider dedicate this page to him. Doc came to Pem-Day from Lawrenceville School in 1924 to teach Latin. Since the faculty was very small at that time, he also coached the baseball team and occasionally the soccer team. His knowledge of Latin was profound, as his studies were backed by his being a College Board reader for many years. As a Latin teacher he became well known throughout the whole City, and his services as a tutor were much in demand. ln connection with this, he had a tutor- ing camp at Lake Tomahawk, Wisconsin. But Doc has made even a deeper mark at Pem-Day by his gcnialty and friendliness. He not only made a dead language living to his students but also was a good friend to them. He was always ready to put in extra time with a boy who needed help, or to give a boy who needed some extra money a job in his yard. His class was one of the things to be anticipated every day. He taught but at the same time he kept the class from becoming tedious by his ready wit. His sayings will long be remembered by his students, especially the ubad applei' and wllhe Good Ship Cuspidorf' Nor will his students forget his formula of teaching which never varied and his addiction to crossword puzzles. Many a time, while his pupils have sweated over one of his tests, Doc has sweated over a crossword puzzle, looking up only at the end of the period to call for the umagnus opusfi He will also be remembered by faculty and parents alike for his piano playing. Doc was known and loved by generations of students at Pern-Day for his kindness and his genuine affection for his students, and it can well be said of him lin respect to Latin at Pem- Dayj Murbem latericiam invenit, lnarmoream reliquitfi - MHe found the f-ity brick and left it marblef,
