y FACULTY students and faculty alike agree that PROFESSOR E. y . HALL Dean of Student Life, is the man for the job. k ' A Vi spite of the fact that he has handled this unsavory job ' for six years, he is one of the most popular profs on the j campus. He can say, No, and make you like it. jy The Science and Education Departments claim all of his teaching time. However, his classes, sprinkled gen- erously with the student ' s every day problems, keep his life from becoming routine. ,„.tiEStf?burricular activities, such as Mayor of Bethany, Secretary ' of the Western Oklahoma District Advisory Board, and teacher of the Junior-Senior Sunday School class, keep him from having too many idle hours. A Texan by birth and heritage, MRS. CAROL LUNDY has an outstanding frankness found lacking in most Texans— she admits that there are other states in the union. She received her M.A. in English from the Universit} ' of Texas and is now working on her M.A. in Speech at the Universib, ' of Oklahoma. She has taught at B.P.C. for seven years. Her three children, her hobby, fill most of her leisure time. In her idle moments, however, she loves to read books of poetry, to travel, and to write short-stories, some of which have been published. Mrs. Lundy inteqjrets poetr)- with a characteristic uniqueness. She has clever ideas, is charming, and is a lovely person to know. m -ti With his many achievements, his innumerable capabil- ities, DR. WILSON LaDUE gives a never-ending con- tribution of brilliant mind and fine judgment to our College. His duties as professor of French and Spanish do not limit his extra-curricular life. He loves to occupy his leisure moments with gardening. photograph -. good classical music, and reading. One of his chief delights is his family. B.P.C. is honored to have on its facult) ' Dr. LaDue, who belongs to Phi Kappa Epsilon and is recognized in Who ' s Who in Ciiicago and Illinois. and Who ' s Who of American Scholars. He is editor of A Bible Schohi m Bible Lands. 20

FACULTY Having found that her husband and her four daughters —her Little Women — did not take all of her time, MRS. RUTH TAYLOR has taught private piano lessons for the past fifteen years. Her charming personality and genuine interest in others has made her a fa orite in any group of which she is a member. Aside from her teaching, she gives valuable leadership in such religious circles as: Sunday School teacher, First Vice-President of the Western Oklahoma District W.F.M.S., and President of local Business and Professional Women ' s Chapter of the W.F.M.S.

At present he holds memoership in the Pi Gamma Mu, Honor Society in Social Science, and in the Oklahoma Academy of Science. His main field of teaching is psychology, but he also in- structs the Christian Doctrine classes. He has an aversion to onions, but he will eat them when he can not gracefully refuse. Tlie Student Council has found in him a er - enthusiastic and inspiring sponsor. Whether at a chess board, in the City Council, on the street corner, or in the classroom. Prof. Ripper is a favorite. • To know MISS ALICE LEWIS is to love her. She began her vocal career in 1915 by taking private voice lessons in Chicago.
