Katharine Piker Sandy High School, 192 f Grove City College, B.S., 1928 University of California University of Michigan Penn Slate Here is a teacher who has the secret of demanding strict order in class without gaining the ill feeling of the students. Miss 1’ifer’s patience and thoroughness in algebra class bring very satisfactory results; and her success as ('entral Treasurer proves that she knows how to use her knowledge.

High School Principal Sandy High School, 1027; drove City College, 1030; Penn Slate Mr. Robertson, our high school principal, by his cheerful and ingenious nature, has won the confidence of all who know him. During the three years that he has served as principal of Sandy High School, he has performed his duties so well that no one doubts his efficiency in this office. Besides his regular duties as principal, Mr. Robertson has been the advisor of our class, and all of us realize that he has helped us through many trials and difficulties. During our junior year he was also our advisor, thus helping us through the second half of our high school career in the capacity of counselor. We now know what a benefit it is to have counsel from the same source for two consecutive years. We have found that Mr. Robertson faithfully supports any project or activity which he feels will benefit the student body, and that he has a way of being sound in his thinking, although we, at times, have not been able to see this until we have further considered it. Mr. Robertson is responsible, along with Mr. Brewer and Miss Pifer, for the organization of the Central Treasury, which has proved so efficient that the old system of handling organization money probably will never be revived. As we Seniors leave Sandy, we express our sincere thanks to our principal and friend, Mr. Robertson, for the help he has so frequently and willingly given us! and we feel that the future classes are fortunate in having him to guide them.

Flambeau Faculty Leolin Hayes Sandy High School, 1924 Susquehanna University, IS. A., 1930 Penn Stale All of us have studied history under Mr. Hayes’ instruction during our four years in high school, and we have formed the opinion that he has an excellent command of history both ancient and modern. The orchestra, under his leadership for the second year, has been making exceptionally fine progress and is now rounding out one of its most successful years. History Elinor G. Hillman Farrell High School, 1930 Grove City College, A.IS., 1934 In the two years that Miss Hillman has been an instructor at Sandy, she has become a steadfast friend of many of us. Although she is quite strict in classes, she can enjoy fun at the right time. She participates in many activities, including the coaching of the Junior Play and the supervising of assembly programs. She is also a firm supporter of athletics, especially basket ball. French—English Charles S. Mitchell Sandy High School, 1932 Susquehanna University, IS.A., 1930 Mr. Mitchell is our well known biology instructor. The students have found him very good-natured, and his cheerful smile gives the most bashful student the courage to recite freely in his classes. Along with Mr. Mitchell’s teaching ability is a keen desire to assist wherever he can; and the students feel that his dependability is a trait which should serve as an example to all.
