1354 MR. I. H. AITCHISON Economics MR. ROGER l. BISHOP English MR. RODNEY POLSSON English MR. SIDNEY G. PETTIT MR. GORDON MCORMOND History and Sociology English Everyone is feeling bereaved over the thought of MR. PETIT'S leaving. Life with him has been truly wonderful. The I.R.C. will feel the loss, too. Dynamic Zeus of the Players' Club, MR. BISHOP has resuscitated many English classes with renditions of Restoration drama-now a campus legend. MR. HICKMAN'S quiet humour is well known to every student qui parle francais. He's done an extra job in sponsoring the Music Appreciation Club. MR. AITCHISON, newly arrived on the faculty, has already endeared himself to all who take Economics, for his lectures, we hear, are well-spiced with subtle humour. Out of the Navy and right into action was evidently MR. POIS- SON'S theory. This year he has made quite an impression. not only in English lectures, but by supporting soccer, the sk trip and helping with the Literary Arts. Another addition to the faculty is MR. MCORMOND, whose personality has already won him many friends, especially amongst the first year students. From an extremely varied and interesting life, MR. STRODYK stepped into Vic. College this year to teach German. All agree that he is a valuable addition to the faculty . MR. AUGUST STRODYK German MR. W. HARRY HICKMAN French and German 8

-ni LEWIS l. CLARK EDWARD SAVANNAH WU-I-IAM H- HUGHES Chemistry Chemistry PhYSiCS The capable guidance of our very learned and conscientious Physics professor, MR. HUGHES, has started many young students on the road to success. I U Chemistry would lack that certain something if it were not for MR. SAVANNAH'S anecdotes and big, happy smile. MR. CLARICS patience and contagious enthusiasm for his sub- ject make Chemistry easier on the nerves. At a particular crisis in the Lab. this year, nerves might have really been shattered had it not been for his heroic action. Besides showing the more morbidly minded students how to pull frogs apart, MR. FIELDS has been a staunch supporter of the basketball team. MISS GIRVAN, our capable Assistant Physics, has been indis- pensible inqthe Lab., especially during Mr. Hughes' absence. Our New Biology Lab. assistant, MISS BOYD, has proved herself a nice person to have around, especially when queer things swim into locus on the microscope slide. Iust out of the Air Force, MR. GADDES rates high in popularity. One reason seems to be his intriguing psychological experiments. WILLIAM H- GP-DDES ' Psychology f,g...,',..,.,.4..r . . z' R A we '-Q-' Miss orrius soYD W.
