ROBERT DENTLER Our third and tourth torm years, Wyatt Garfield was easily the most important member ot the faculty tor the class of l952. He was always around, being our English teacher both years, a math teacher, advisor, coach and the dorm master ot Low- er l. He was more than around. He was the master of diplomacy. Whenever there was a problem land there were plentyl, big brother Cartields door was always open, and, as he wrote on our papers we would discuss . Perhaps the most charming aspect ot his classes was his use of the escape hatch, He would never make an outright state- ment. lt would always be perhaps , Hit you will , or in this context , and, his favorite, this funny little word . He encouraged original thought at all times. For many of us, it was the first time we knew there xi such a thing as origi- nal thought. He was a handy man at a form picnic, and even handler when we were in trouble. But he was handiest of all, just when he was around, giving us his com- pany and his friendship. WYATT CARFIELD
