Westminster College 21 William Wilson Campbell, A.M. Director of Music Director Campbell, better known to the stu- dent as Peter Willie, must be given credit for establishing the Department of Music on its present basis. His wide spread reputation as an artist and teacher has brought an ever in- creasing number of music students to the College. In addition to his regular teaching, Mr. Campbell directs the Boys ' and Girls ' Glee Clubs and the Chorus. If anyone doubts his official ear, ask one of the first tenors for particulars. Mr. Campbell is also Graduate Manager of Ath- letics. Miss CoRiNNE Mercer, A.B. Secretar ' , College of Music Miss Mercer has filled the position of secretary in the College of Music in an able manner since 1908. Her principal duties are answering Mr. Campbell ' s voluminous correspondence, and pre- venting co-education in the practice rooms. In addition to these services Miss Mercer keeps order about the Music Hall, guards Mr. Campbell against intrusion, and teaches Theory and Musical Composition. Miss Mercer ' s quiet disposition, kind manner, and willingness to help each stu- dent make her a general favorite among the musically inclined. Miss Nona Yantis, B.S. Teacher of Pianoforte The lack of space prevents us from telling all the good qualities of Miss Yantis,— anyone especially interested is referred to the Who ' s Who column in the Holcad. Suffice to say here that Miss Yantis is a teacher of much ability, and an artist of considerable reputation. Her natural musical ability has been augmented by years of preparation, including several seasons of study under the best masters of Europe. Her pleasant, cheerful manner has made her a very popular teacher.

22 The 1916 Argo Miss Mary Douthett Instructor in Pianoforte Miss Douthett is a graduate of Westminster ' s Department of Music, and for several years has been instructor in pianoforte. She understands her work thoroughly, and her success as a teacher is shown by the rapid advancement of her pupils. Miss Douthett is an artist of wonderful technic and unerrmg interpretation. As an accompanist she has been highly praised by many visiting artists. This sketch would be incomplete without mention of Miss Douthett ' s knowledge of foot- ball — received by propinquity from the man- ager of the team. Wesley W. Howard Teacher of Voice Professor Howard is a newcomer in the De- partment of Music, having assumed his position in the fall of 1914. His pleasant smile and cheer- ful greeting has already won him a host of friends. When Professor Howard came to us he had already acquired a reputation as a singer of ability, and his work here has increased rather than decreased that reputation. Professor Howard and his wife are in demand as chap- erons — you will recall the famous High School sled load of last January. Edward F. Kuriz Professor of Violin and Orchestra Music This small but jovial and energetic individual hangs out regularly in New Castle, where he teaches almost everything from the bag-pipe to the kettle-drums. His specialty, however, is the vio- lin. Each Wednesday he tucks this article under his arm, and rides into New Wilmington on the ten o ' clock Thunderbolt, better known as the Sharpsville, where he ministers to the needs of his pupils. Professor Kurtz is the conductor of the New Castle Symphony Orchestra, and enjoys an enviable reputation both as a musician and com- poser.
