Miss Knox is an experienced and enthusiastic Girl Scout leader. In the summer of 1949, she accom- panied hfty American Girl Scouts on a European KOLIIZ At present, she is a counselor in U. camps, and spends her summers in Girl Scout work. Aside from teaching. many members of the faculty spend their spare time in pursuit of their various hobbies. For instance. Mrs. lVade is a floral enthusiast and has won many ribbons and prizes for unusual and lovely designs. The sisters in our faculty, Mrs. Kirk and Miss Taylor, used many of their spare hours in restoring an old home in Charlottesville, Virginia. This year. a faculty committee was formed to obtain and plan a memorial window honor- ing 'Westerns war dead. Miss Taylor was chairman of the group, through whose efforts the memorial will be installed early next spring. 4? Mrs. Mary B.

The student body has been aware of their everpresent inlluence both in the classroom and in outside activities. i Never let it be said that XVestern's teachers are not right up to date in their courses. Mr. Struble, science teacher, has exemplified this fact. In order that he might be well versed on the latest developments in his field, he spent last summer attending Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology on a science lellowship. ln the Cadet Corps, the new military instructor, Lieutenant Hayes, has seen military service since lflfll. He spent two years in France, Belgium, and Germany. This year, Lt. Hayes succeeded in almost doubling the corps enrollment, which had been dropping steadily in recent years. A number ol' new courses were added this yearg among them is a records class, ably taught by Miss Nell Bass, and driver's training, under the direction of Mr. Milton Sarris, a new member ol ol' our laculty, who has played a great part in impressing upon our students the importance ol sale driving. Dr. Maud lNIcl'herson, who retired last June. wrote us that she was enjoying the summer visiting missions, art colonies, and colleges in the XVest. She returned to Waslringtcmii during the lirst semester and visited X'Vestern at Christmas. 4 xl 'X l fr- i its . 4. 17A f - f , Q-X, an c . Lt. Robert T. Hayes Miss Muriel N. Hoover Mrs, Cecelia N.
