D. BRUCE LYTLE, A.B. Shippensburg Normal School Susquehanna University Duke University Science, Director of Summer School Do you like science and math or enjoy singing in a glee club? Mr. Lytle is an ardent lover of all three. His quick way of solving problems never fails, and in using his system, he impresses his students with the necessity of speed and accuracy. Although the sciences are his favorite, he has a soft spot in his heart for good music, as sung by our chorus, in which he is very active. JAMES F. QUIGG, B.A. West Chester State Teachers College Director of Athletics' If any one on the Perkiomen campus is interested in learning how to play soccer or how to wrestle, the man to be consulted is Perkiomen's expert, namely, James F. Quigg, the very capable coach of wrestling and soccer. In addition to being Director of Athletics, he teaches Physical Education and General Science very efficiently. Jimmy believes jimmy in the old saying, Be a Man. RAYMOND O. SPENCER Indiana State Teachers College Social Studier, Mathematica' This year Mr. Spencer's time has been devoted chiefly to mathematics. Trying to develop a business sense in some of the students has proved an almost insurmountable problem. However, as a result of his fortitude and patience, the task is nearing completion. When speaking to Mr. Spencer about future business men, we notice a smile of success stealing across his face. LLOYD L. STUTZMAN, B.A., M.A. Gettysburg College University of Berlin University of Marburg Foreign Languager Mr. Stutzman is a member of the Language Department here at school. When the Spanish boys arrive at school Mr. Stutzman takes them under his wing and teaches them the fundamentals of English.

IRWIN W. KEHS, Ph.B. Muhlenberg College Senior Mailer Direrlor of Courier Matlaematirf For any one to attempt to combine into a few words all that can and should be said about Mr. Kehs is impossible. Looking back through all the previous editions, we find it difficult to be original. Mr. Kehs has been here so long that he is now accepted as being immortal in the annals of Perkiomen. Many acquaintances comes and pass ong but to us, the memory of Mr. Kehs shall remain as long as we live. HENRY GOODMAN A. SMITH, A.B., A.M. Swarthmore College University of Pennsylvania University of Illinois Foreign Languagef, Airirturzl Director of Courier To everyone here at school, the Head of our Foreign Language Depart- ment, is known as Smitty . A better instructor and all around master couldn't be had. Smitty took first honors at the State Bridge Tournament, and third at the National. During his stay in college he was a member of Phi Beta Kappa National Honor Society. Besides his regular duties as master, he finds time to coach our Tennis Team and instruct our Bridge Club. CALVIN H. RUTH, B.A.A. Philadelphia Museum School of Industrial Art Art It is said that all good things come in small packages. This saying can very suitably be applied to Calvin Ruth. Although Mr. Ruth has quiet ways, one would never know that this man of small stature has such a tremendous amount of skill at his disposal. When he received his B.A.A. degree at Philadelphia Museum School of Industrial Art, he was awarded with it the Baugh Barbara Prize in Ceramics. At present, Mr. Ruth is furthering his education at Stella Elkins Tyler School of Fine Arts, study- ing for his Master's degree. CLAUDE K. HARLEY Combs College of Music Muiic No matter who the student at Perkiomen is, he invariably comes in con- tact with Mr. Harley. Each morning as we enter Chapel we hear the smooth mellow tones of the organ played by Mr. Harley's adept fingers. As we sit and listen to the various refrains, a peaceful feeling descends upon us. Through him we have learned the value of music and how to appreciate it. Page Twelve

CHARLES S. BAKER, B.S. Lock Haven State Teachers College Ellglirb Mr. Baker, we sometimes think, could have done exceptionally well writ- ing for Bob Hope. His easy manner and ready smile lets one believe that life is that proverbial Bowl of Cherries . XWe need a good end , can be accredited to George as he is sometimes referred to by the Faculty. MRS. C. Z. HUNTZINGER, B.S., M.Ed. Kutztown State Teachers College Pennsylvania State College Remedial Reading W D0 you have a hard time with the classics? Do you find it difficult to interpret passages from various selections? Drop into the Remedial Read- ing Room to see Mrs. Huntzinger. She is more than willing to help any lost soul out from the depths of ignorance. XVILLIAM V. YOUNG, BS., M.Ed. XWest Chester State Teachers College Duke University Science While you sit and dream, as most of us are prone to do, questions arise as to why this and why that. Lf you are incapable of comprehending the physical things about you, see Mr, Young. As our physicist, Mr. Young will answer all your questions from a wealth of knowledge he has in store. Be your question practical or otherwise, you will get an answer worthy of your question. RICHARD WEIKEL, B.S. University of Pennsylvania Social Studier Ever since man was, so was history. Making students realize the import- ance of the past and present in an arduous task. To rid such a subject of monotony is still harder. But through the hardiwork and efficient plan- ning of Mr. Weikel, much has been done to instill the necessity of history and to relieve this subject of its so-called boring atmosphere. Page Fourteen
