. . . MR. PAUL T. SMITH He entered the world on April 11, 1931, the youngest of two children. His early youth was spent in the rural community of Montrose, where he graduated from high school — Class of '48. He then spent four years at Millersville State College where he earned a degree in Industrial Arts. He was first employed by the Pennsylvania Game Commission, and later a teaching assignment was procured in the Wyalusing Area School District. On the 18th of June, 1955, he wed the former Barbara Hicks. In 1959 this union produced a daughter Suzanne and in 1962, a son Jeffrey, who just completed degree requirements from Slippery Rock University this year. His hobbies and interests are closely paralleled by his economic pursuits — an avid hunter, sportsman, and gun collecting wheeler and dealer. His economic adventures include tree farming and a recently opened Firearms and Sporting Goods enterprise. His long term dream is to participate in a big game hunt in the American West. He is a past adviser of the T I Club and NRA Rifle Club. He has supervised the Summer Youth Corp program for many years, and served as a member of the Wyalusing Borough Council and the United Methodist Church. The Vallian staff is proud to dedicate this 1984 edition to our teacher, craftsman, friend, and hunting mentor — Mr. Paul Thomas Smith.
