Administration corsmwuro f Z, Z X, Mr. Daniel A. Rood Registrar During the thirteen years Mr. Daniel A. Rood has been at Power he has served as both teacher and Registrar. In the class- room the subjects of French, Biology and Algebra have been en- livened by virtue of his genial personality. Having been granted his baccalaureate degree from the New York State Teachers Col- lege in Albany, he has taught in St. Cecilia's and Sacred Heart. More memories are enkindled in the hearts of alumni when they return to the Academy by the familiar figure of Mr. Rood than by anything else at Power. The future graduates hope he'll be on hand to greet them should they have occasion to return here. Rev. Bro. Stephen C. Murphy Treasurer Brother Stephen C. Murphy, who has made the Academy the locale of his endeavors for the last six years, is at the present engaged in the instruction of Religion to first and second years. Brother holds a Bachelors and a Masters Degree in Arts from St. Mary's College in Halifax. The main duty of Brother at Power is to accept the student's tuition. Perhaps the most widely traveled Brother, he has seen Ireland, his birthplace, and Canada and Newfoundland where he taught in all the Brother's institu- tions. Brother has deservedly received the admiration of all with whom he has been associated. May he spend many years here. iq Rev. Bro. Thomas V. Ryan School Bursar Located on the second floor of the academy, the bursar's office is the extremely important hub of the financial affairs of the school. These daily monetary problems and commitments are under the very able pilotship of Brother Thomas V. Ryan, school bursar. While Brother is laden with the daily pecuniary business that necessitates much time, he also maintains a full academic schedule. Religion and English, which he imparts to the juniors and seniors, comprise a major portion of his teaching roster. Coming from many and varied schools in Newfoundland, this is the ninth year that Power has enjoyed his distinguished service. .few Mrs. Beatrice Davis A Secretary . The secretarial tasks of Power are important spokes in the aca- demic and complex wheel that turns with precision the scholastic workings of the academy. As Bro. Pakenhams secretary, Mrs. Beatrice Davis handles this job with the utmost competence and poise. A graduate of Walton High School and the Bird School of Business, Mrs. Davis was employed by an electrical company be- fore joining the staff of Power. With the administration of her secretarial duties and the added task of housewife and mother, Mrs. Davis enjoys her leisure time in relaxation or recreation in the field of bowling or in the Hi-Fi world of recorded music.
