Vera Moffat, a graduate of the school
of physical education in 1015, was one of
those industrious girls who “literally
live in Hie gym department,” said Miss
Cummings, head of the department and
it would seem from her present position
that her diligence brought ample returns.
She taught at Ashland first, later at The
Dalles, and is now head of the depart
ment of physical education at the Bel
lingham State Normal in Washington.
Mins Moffat recently refused an offer
of a $8000 a year position as a communi
ty leader of physical education in one of
our western cities because sin1 felt that
she could be of more service where she
is.
SWEETSER TO SPEAK TONIGHT.
Professor A. R. Sweetser will give
the first of a series of illustrated lec
tures tonight at 7:15 in Deady hall. The
series is eaddel “Medical Missions” and
will consist of six" lectures, to be given
every week until completed. Both men
and women are invited to attend this
lecture, which is a regularly scheduled
course in the recently started “Y” school.
Stereoptieon slides will be used. The
meeting will be held in the lecture room
of the building and in accordance with
the policy of the plan, will last only one
hour.
