Leif Io Right: Pitt, Mercer, Norfleet, Brightman. LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT In the modern languages depart- ment, VVoodberry oiters a very com- plete and well-developed three-year course in both French and Spanish. As head of the French Department the School has for many years been fortunate in having Mr. Fillmore Nor- ileet, who attended VVashington and Lee, U. of Va., and the University of Portiers in France, and obtained his Ph.D. degree. Mr. Norileet is assisted in the instruction of this section by Mr. Paul F. Brightman, who came to VVoodberry last year. Mr. Brightman graduated from the University of Lausanne and has already proved him- self to be very eflicient in his French instruction. The Spanish Department has for many years been under the able direc- tion of Mr. Ioseph M. Mercer, who came to VVoodberry twenty years ago after completing his B.S. degree at the University of Virginia. Also instructing in Spanish is Mr. Malcolm Pitt, Ir., of the University of Richmond. 22

SCIENCE DEPARTMENT The Science Department at Wood- berry Forest is centered around ca- pable masters Who use excellent equip- ment to instruct the students in the phases of elementary science. Heading this division is Mr. Harry T. Saxton, who for many years has been a thoroughly competent teacher in Chemistry. He also directs the stu- dent serving corps in the dining room. Mr. Samuel Macliaughlin, who also holds classes in Chemistry, devotes his main efforts to Biology and General Science. Mr. Charles Bettis, the third mein- ber of this group, instructs all the Physics classes. His touch with the rnodern aspects of this science are manifested by his recent work at Oak Ridge on the Atomic Bomb Project. Z1 Not only does science play an iin- portant role in every day life, but also does it hold untold possibilities as the people of the world pause on the brink of the most revolutionary era of all time, the Atomic Age.
