Later he received the degree of master of arts from both Dickinson College and Columbia University. In addition to being an educator of consequence, Mr. Philhower is a history and nature enthusiast. Of importance here because our yearbook decoration is Indian is the fact that Mr. Philhower is an Indian by adoption. His Indian name Kooksaupees, which means “the investigator”, shows that Indians have a perfect sense of values. MR. FRANK N.
