The college was most fortunate to secure his services Five years ago when he came home to Maxton after a long and distinguished teaching career.

He is a man who can he counted on to do more than his share in any situation, he is Counted upon by the students as a friend and adviser. Despite all these highfsounding statements, he earns the classification as the wittiest professor, and in all of life's complexities he finds fun and happiness. He has been an inspira- tion to us all. PHYSICS and MATH WVilliam A. Linton, jri, BS, qDavidson College, University of Colorado, Emory Univer- sityj. The son of Presbyterian missionaries, he was born in Korea. This hard worker, who teaches math and physics, runs the maintenance department, is always willing to help the boys with their problems. and also Hntls time to aid the S, C. A. work. We don't know how he does it all, brit we do know that we have learned to think a lot of him in the short time he has been here. During World Mlar II he became a hero by crawling into a cave and persuading a number of troops to surrender. After marrying his high school sweetheart and completing his education, he eventually accepted work at P. J. CI, last fall. VVe feel that the college is most fortunate to have secured his services.
