PERSONALITY OF THE YEAR MR. ROBERT L. DUNCAN Physical Education is one of the most im- portant phases of school life, and for the past twenty-six years Robert L. Duncan has headed this department as Director of Athletics He is currently head coach of the track team and has also coached football and basketball. A native of Oconto, Wisconsin, Mr. Duncan received his B. S. degree in physical training from the University of Iowa in 1923. For three years he quarterbacked the football team there. Here he is very active in local affairs, including church and Y.M.C.A. work. In addition to his school work in physical education, Mr. Duncan has held important offices in related organiza- tions. He has been both president and vice- president of the New Jersey Association for Health and Physical Education and has also been a member of the National Football Rules Committee, the Union County Interscholastic Athletic Conference, and the New Jersey Inter- scholastic Athletic Association. Although Mr. Duncan must schedule all the sporting events of the high school and attend to mountains of clerical work, he finds time to teach personal living to boys and to instruct some gym classes. Liked and respected by all, he is looked to by many as a source of inspira- tion and guidance. A happy family life with his charming wife and two children who have attended Westfield schools from their earliest years has given him an exceptionally good background for wholesome advice and counsel. The Class of 1955 is proud to have the privi- lege of dedicating this yearbook to a fine man and a fine teacher, Robert L. Duncan. 5 ■I
