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

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.

PAUL E. HORN, B.S. West Chester State Teachers College Dean Mf1tl1emati:.r, Barkelball Coach One of the most diflicult tasks in any school is that of a disciplinarian. Meting out justice impartially, Dean Horn very capably carried out the duties of his office. Along with his duties as mathematics instructor, Mr. Horn coached our basketball team through a very successful season. At present he is studying for his Master's at Lehigh University. JOSEPH W. SNYDER, A.B., A.M. Bucknell University University of Pennsylvania Englifb Mr. Snyder is a master who would like to classify English as an exact science. Believing in what he teaches, he is very meticulous. There are no two ways about English, only one-the right one: and he has been quite successful in imparting that doctrine into his students. MEREDITH RUSSELL, A.B., A.M. Yale University Montclair, New Jersey State Teachers College Englirln Mr. Russell is a comparative newcomer to Perkiomen. As Head of our English Department, he has the duty of seeing that we depart from these hallowed halls with a vocabulary plus a grammatical sense behtting a graduate of Perkiomen. English, which for most of us is a dry subject, has been brightened considerably since his arrival. As the years pass on, we students shall endeavor to prove that his efforts were not in vain. GEORGE HEDDY, B.S. Colgate University Mathemazinr Caarb of Foolball Mr. Heddy came to Perkiomen at the start of the Summer Session. The word speed seems written all over him. In the classroom he handles hgures like a magician-occasionally handling them so dextrously that we poor students are mystilied. However, when the performance is over, we leave the classroom with the secrets of the profession instilled in our minds. Page Fifteen
