New Headmaster takes over Mr. James Keith McPhee becomes the new Headmaster of Saltus Grammar School from September 1 st, 1 979, filling the post left vacant by the departure of Mr. Roy Haygarth. Mr. McPhee, with 1 6 years of secondary and tertiary teaching experience behind him, left his position as Head of School of Communications and senior lecturer at Durham Technical College in 1 976 to move to the Bahamas. There he became deputy-head and Head of Senior School at the St. Andrews School, which is in Nassau. He holds a B.A. and a Dip. Ed. from Durham University, and this summer was due to complete his M.Ed, degree in Educational Administration and Supervision at the University of Miami. The new Headmaster is also an avid sportsman, with particular interest in rugby, shooting, archery, athletics and sailing. (He plans to bring his boat from Nassau when he arrives on the Island).) He is married, and has three children aged 7, 1 0 and 1 2. Best wishes are extended from all at Saltus to Mr. McPhee as he prepares for his new undertaking- ■ llltllllltl Man, he lives in jerks . . . gets a farm an ' loses his farm, an ' that ' s a jerk . . . but the river, it goes right on . . .. We ain ' t gonna die out. People is goin ' on — changin ' a little, maybe, but goin ' right on. Ma Joad, — The Grapes of Wrath, by John Steinbeck.

moviiY on . . . bon vo yage! This year, the Senior School says goodbye to three teachers: Henry Ziegler leaves to return to the United States. His new appointment is in New Jersey. Steven Masters is staying in his native Bermuda, and turns to his first love, painting ; he plans to take this up professionally and make it his full-time career. Paul Morris returns to England to teach. We wish them well, and will miss all three. Hello! Saltus welcomes three new teachers: Mr. Vaughan Evans ends an eleven-year association with Whitney Institute to join us at Saltus, taking over the Art Department vacated by Steven Masters. Mr. Evans holds a BA general from Queens University and his Teaching Certificate is from Stranmillis College. Mr. Alan Roskilly joins us from Sandys ' Secondary, where he has been teaching for the last three years. He will teach Geography and Economics, thereby filling the void left by Paul Morris. Mr. Roskilly has a B.Sc. (Hons.) from London University, and his Certificate in Education is from King Alfred ' s College in Winchester. Mr. Christopher Palmer comes directly to us from England; he has a B.A. (Hons.) in History from Cambridge University, and his Certificate in Education is also from Cambridge. He will teach History, thereby relieving pressure on Malcolm Durrant, who is to take over the duties formerly looked after by Henry Ziegler. In the mail . . . Word has reached us from New Jersey that Henry and his family have already settled into his fine new country estate. Both he and his family love every minute in their new home, and all at Saltus are welcome to visit whenever they ' re in the vicinity. The snap-shots reproduced here give some idea of how the Zieglers now wallow in self-indulgent luxury; they say there is a marked difference from their cramped accommodation with which they were afflicted in Bermuda . . .
