Regret that I never had the opportunity to have him as instructor. His classes are said to be wide awake and lively-Guess he knows how to put things over. I was thinking today about Miss Wheeling and how she got locked out of class one morning at 8:10. Then there was Miss Kilpatrick, also of the English department, and the day the pencil flew out of her hand right smack in the middle of the class and hit a girl accidentally! And the early morning science lectures by Dr. Clausen-they'll always be remembered. Here and there among the faculty certain ones cannot be overlooked- Mr. Bergin with his slow gait and his easy classroom manner, and Dr. Lester of the math department, who was not only competent in her work, but was much fun at parties. And speaking of parties, I will never forget the way the Fredericks joined in the fun at Christmas formal one year, or the dinners Dr. Green used to give for members of the faculty. ' I started out to record my visit back to State, but I was waylaid with my reminis- cences about the faculty. Where was I? Oh, over in Mr. Bulger's office. Well, I saw Miss Hayes calmly interviewing a young Milnite as I was coming out, which made me think of case studies and practice teaching. Then, after a greeting to Mr. Kinsella, I returned to State proper. Miss Futterer was busy in the auditorium with a new play-so I didn't stop to see her. I was awfully lucky in meeting Dr. Hastings on the stairs in Richardson- smiling and nodding just as he always did. I have rambled I know, but I can't help reminiscing about the faculty. I shall always remember them for their sympathetic understanding, friendly spirit, and student interest. Miss Wallace and Miss johnson agree that all What about Horace Glad We CKlNeW York roads lead to Rome Mann, Dr. French? 11 gl. i
