The couple divorced in 1975. On November 11,1980, Dr. John Williams married Fannie N.B. Williams. In 1929, at the age of 18, Williams won a national diving championship as a member of the New York Athletic Club and was invited by the Olympic Committee to train for the 1932 Games to be held in Los Ange­les. Williams and other members of the team toured the United States giving diving exhi­bitions to help raise money for the team. Just before the Olympic trials Williams broke a thumb and was not able to compete. He participated as an honorary member of the diving team during the 1936 Games held in Berlin, Germany. His business career as an Assistant Credit Manager for American Cynamid Corporation in New York City was inter­rupted in 1941 when, immediately after Pearl Harbor, Williams volunteered for the United States Army Air Corps. He was accepted for officer training, and went on to serve on active duty during the second world war and the Korean conflict. He had assignments in both the European and Pacific theaters and was one of the first airborne combat officers to land at Atsugi, Japan, upon cessation of hostilities. He was a member of General MacArthur's staff during the early days of the Japanese occupation. He was retired in 1971 with the rank of Colonel after 29 years of active and reserve duty. Even though on the retired list, Williams serves as a Liaison officer in North Carolina for the United States Air Force Academy as an associate admissions officer providing guidance and counseling for young men and women desirous of attending the academy. After retiring from active duty, Wil­liams enrolled at the University of Denver in Colorado, where he had a swimming scholar­ship, in 1953. There he received his B.A. in education in 1955.

He also served as the first coach of the varsity swimming team. In 1962, after five years of service at the University of New Mexico, Williams ac­cepted a teaching fellowship at Bowling Green State University in Ohio. There he worked on his Ed.S. degree in school administration and health education, which he re­ceived in 1964. Williams' research disserta­tion for the Ed.S. merited a United States Public Health Service Traineeship Fellow­ship at the University of California School of Public Health, Berkeley Campus. Williams received his M.P.H. degree in public health education from the University of California in 1965. In 1965 Williams was offered a faculty appointment at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. After three years of service as associate professor in the Department of Health and Physical Education, Aquatics and Gymnastics, and as a varsity swim coach there, he was given a leave of absence to accept a three-year NDEA Fellowship at Bowling Green State University. At the same time he was awarded a Bowling Green State University Distinguished Alumni Fellow­ship to work on a Ph.D. in school administra­tion and health education. In 1969 Williams accepted a position at Appalachian State University as an assistant professor in the Department of Health, Physi­cal Education and Recreation with only his dissertation left to complete for his Ph.D. He received his Ph.D. in 1973 and was promoted to associate professor the same year.

John Matthew Vergeer was a wholesale dealer and importer of American flour. Of Teunis' seven brothers and sisters, four are still living: Shirley, retired army major in Del Rey Oaks, California; Joseph, retired insur­ance agent of Portland, Oregon; Serard, re­tired city manager now in Bremerton, Ore­gon; and Duane, senior attorney and retired army colonel of Portland, Oregon. Vergeer graduated from a private high school (the Institute Van Bleek) in Rotter­dam in June of 1916 at age 15. That same month, he was appointed as billing clerk in a large lumber company. In addition to making out bills, he took classes in French and Ger­man dictation and typed up letters in these languages because the regular typist could not do so. He married Frouwina Hermina Eliza­beth (Jansma) Vergeer--outstanding musi­cian, vocalist, pianist, and organist. They had three children: John Teunis (July 5,1928 -); Frouwina Hermina Elizabeth, Jr. (May 24, 1933 -), now Mrs. D. Bartelli; and Frederick Richard (June 28,1937 -). John is an attorney (M.Law, University of Michigan), and Fred is retired from the U.S. Department of Agri­culture (B.Sc., University of Florida) and has a large farm. Vergeer's second wife is Dorthea Anna Van Andel, M.A. (University of Michigan), who is retired from a career in music, broadcasting and teaching. Vergeer attended Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan from 1921 to 1926 and received his A.B. degree in biology and chemistry. He went to the University of Michigan as a teaching assistant in 1926, and the next year he became a research assistant working on his own problem. In 1928 the university continued him as a research assis­tant at regular salary and permitted him to teach a full load at Alma College--he worked three and a half days a week at both schools! In 1929 Vergeer received his M.Sc. degree in zoology. He then accepted a position as professor of biology at Hastings College, but returned the next year to the University of Michigan as a National Research Fellow in Medicine. Then, in 1931, he accepted a position at Hope College, where he was pro­fessor of biology and department head. He received his Ph.D. in zoology from the Uni­versity of Michigan in February of 1932. Vergeer stayed at Hope College until 1953. He then became an assistant professor at the School of Medicine at the University of North Dakota, where he worked until 1957. There he became an experimental surgeon, performing such difficult operations as lum­bar sympathectomies. It was too cold in North Dakota, so in 1957 he went to West­minister College to be the head of the depart­ment of biology. Then, in 1960, he came to Appalachian State Teachers College (now Appalachian State University) as professor of biology. Here, Dr. Vergeer continued to do research as well as to teach. With the assistance of outside grants which were always forthcoming during his tenure at Appalachian, Dr. Vergeer opened up the medical schools to Appalachian stu­dents; those working for him as assistants had the research experience required. He pub­lished numerous articles and papers throughout his professional career, and a list of them covers many pages. The New York Times gave a thirty-line account of his re­search, and Newsweek reported on him as well. Research topics investigated by Ver­geer include zoology (tapeworms, mosquitos, frogs), biology (irradiation and plant growth) and physiology (vasculature, bloodflow). A highlight in his research endeavors was when he proved that bears are important carriers of tapeworms. Dr. Vergeer infected two bears with eight tapeworm larvae hidden in chocolate cake and subsequently treated them with kamala in honey, revealing 240 feet of the worms. Vergeer's medicine successfully cured a young child in Milwau­kee who suffered from tapeworm infestation, after four other attempts to treat the child had all failed. Vergeer also proved that veins under low pressure are more contractile than arteries under the same pressure. He worked three summers for the U.S.D.A. and after­ward was called repeatedly to help them in solving insect problems. For two summers he ran a grasshopper control program which covered 10 counties in Michigan. Another summer, working for the Michigan Blue­berry Growers' Association, Dr. Vergeer discovered and directed, with 99% success, the control of an insect which had caused over a $1,000,000 damage to that crop previ­ously. While working with the U.S.D.A., Vergeer was given a GS 12 rating. Additional honors which Vergeer re­ceived were membership in: the Michigan State Board of Examiners, the Michigan Academy of Sciences (chairman, one year), the American Medical Association (special affiliate member), and Sigma Xi. His biogra­phy has been listed in over 10 publications, including five different volumes of the Who's Who series. Vergeer was awarded the status of full professor at the University of North Dakota and at the University of Maryland, where he taught for two summers. Although he began at the University of Maryland as guest lec­turer in genetics and human development, he was quickly promoted and given a sizable bonus for his teaching contributions there. Vergeer retired from Appalachian in 1971 after 11 years of service to the univer­sity and a distinguished life-long career as a medical and biological researcher. In retire­ment he has continued to do research; in 1976 he presented a paper at the Medical College of Georgia dealing with his findings on veins. He currently spends his time fishing and travelling, and enjoying winters in Fairhope, Alabama. Sources: Appalachian State University files and personal correspondence. - Dr. Richard D.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Occupation Professor Emeritus Biographical Text Professor Emeritus of Finance, Insurance & Real Estate William S. Vanderpool, Jr. (February 1, 1922 - ), retired college professor and attorney, was born in El Paso, Texas, the son of a Methodist minister. The young William grew up in various parsonages across Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma. He graduated from Central High School in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, in 1939. During his high school years, he demonstrated what was to be his lifelong talent of public speaking by being elected State champion in extemporaneous speaking and debate. This honor helped spur his lifelong interest in public speaking. After high school graduation Vander­pool began studies at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, on a full scholar­ship, majoring in political science and eco­nomics. After having received the B.A. de­gree, he commenced a term of military serv­ice with the United States Navy in February, 1943. During this time he served as deck officer on a ship in the Pacific Theatre until May, 1946. After the war Vanderpool returned to his studies, obtaining the LL.B. degree from the Duke University School of Law in 1948, at which time he was admitted to the District of Columbia Bar Association. For three years pursuant to obtaining the LL.B., Vanderpool worked as a trial attorney with the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice. During this time he also spent the fall semester of 1950 serving as a visiting instruc­tor at Illinois Institute of Technology. Following his years of service with the Department of Justice, Vanderpool again pursued further education by obtaining first the M.A. degree (granted in 1952) and then the Ph.D. degree (granted in 1953) at Louisi­ana State University. After obtaining the Ph.D., Vanderpool served twenty years at Grinnell College, Grinnell, Iowa, teaching there from 1953 until 1973. During his years at Grinnell, Vanderpool participated in a number of research and civic activities. Most notably in civic activities, he was elected to and served on the Grinnell City Council from 1970 until 1974; and served as trustee and president of the Grinnell Community Hospi­tal Board from 1962 until 1973. Addition­ally, he twice obtained fellowships from the General Humanities Board Ford Grant; in 1971, he studied with the Federal Communi­cations Commission, and in 1973, he was granted a fellowship in London to study Communications Law. During this time, Vanderpool additionally wrote published articles relating to health law, parliamentary procedure, and semantics and logic. Vanderpool also served as the Director of the Super­visors Training Program for General Tele­phone Company of Iowa in 1962, and for Iowa Southern Utilities Company in 1964. In 1973, Dr. Vanderpool accepted a position on the faculty of Appalachian State University, bringing with him all of the ex­pertise of his previous professional, research, and teaching experience. He immediately became a popular and highly respected pro­fessor with both his students and colleagues. His outstanding contributions to the art of teaching won him the Teacher of the Year Award from the John A. Walker College of Business at Appalachian in 1980. During his time at Appalachian, Dr. Vanderpool contin­ued to distinguish himself as a busy and consummate professional by serving as president of the Southeast Business Lawyers Association in 1980-81, and by continuing his research in the areas of art and the law, and employment at will. Dr. Vanderpool's professional affili­ations included memberships in the National Panel of Arbitrators of the American Arbitra­tion Association; the Public Employments Disputes Settlement Panel of the American Arbitration Association; the District of Co­lumbia Bar Association; the Southeast and American Business Lawyers Association; Phi Alpha Delta; and the American Arbitra­tion Association. Dr. Vanderpool's retirement in 1986, has in no way slowed his lifelong pursuit of knowledge and dedication to his field. He continues to devote time to the study of foreign languages, particularly Spanish, and is also becoming actively involved as an arbitrator in commercial disputes. In his spare time, Dr. Vanderpool plans to exercise his more literary side through testing his creative talents by trying his hand at a little playwriting.

Thomas began his long career (1950-1982) at Appalachian State University in 1950 as an instructor but was quickly pro­moted up the ranks to full professor and was one of the institution's first two award win­ners of "distinguished professor" on the basis of ability, effectiveness, and influence as a teacher and a scholar. His principal teaching area and interest was in human anatomy and physiology as related to nervous, skeletal, and muscular systems and the understanding of human movement or locomotion. Another of his interests was in human dynamics in relation to fatigue and work output. This interest led him to serve for 16 years as the university's faculty athletic trainer (1950-1966), and began the development of the current athletic training program in the physical education department. The Athletic Training Facility was dedicated in his name on September 19,1987.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Occupation Associate Professor Emerita Biographical Text Associate Professor Emerita of English Loris Shipman (September 16,1896 -), retired college professor, was born near Eastman, Georgia, to Cora Lancaster and William Archer Shipman. Her father was from Columbus County, North Carolina; her mother, from Pulaski County, Georgia. She and her family lived for a few years in north-em Florida before moving to Mississippi, near the coast, where her father operated a sawmill (1903-1907). Three years later while living in Lumberton, Mississippi, he was admitted to the bar. The last thirty-seven years of his life were devoted to the practice of law and to the performance of his duties in various state and federal government positions-to all of which he was appointed. These were in Jackson, Mississippi, Wash­ington, D.C., and Dallas, Texas. Loris Shipman was one of four chil­dren. When she was six years old, and her sister Margaret was seven, their mother taught them to read, since there was no school within walking distance. During the next four years their schooling was irregular (and rather haphazard) at a one-teacher private school-with a new teacher every year. The first graded school they attended was in Mobile, Alabama, where the family lived for a time before moving to Lumberton, Missis­sippi. There Margaret and Loris entered the seventh grade and in due time completed grammar school. In 1913 when they gradu­ated from high school (only eleven grades), Loris was valedictorian of the class. After one year at Meridian College, Miss Shipman "rusticated" at home for a year, then taught primary grades in a rural school (Gipson) in Pearl River County for one six-months' term. In 1916 she returned to Meridian College, and three years later she graduated from that institution with a B.A. degree and a certificate in Expression. Armed with a college degree, Miss Shipman then began a long and distinguished teaching career interspersed with periods of formal study. She first accepted a position at Kemper County Agricultural School in Scooba, Mississippi, teaching English and Expression (1919-1921). In the summer of 1921 she attended Tulane University, where she took courses in English and history. From 1921-1923 she taught at Lewisville High School (in Lewisville, Arkansas). There, besides English, she taught plane geometry and one class in history. Because of her mother's illness, Miss Shipman came home in the summer of 1923 without seeking employment for the follow­ing year. After her mother's death in late October an opening occurred in the local grammar school, and for the remainder of that school year she taught an overflow sec­tion of third and fifth graders. The next year (while still staying at home) she gave private lessons in Expression at the Poplarville Grammar School and at Pearl River A.H.S. (both in Poplarville, Mississippi). In the summer of 1924 Loris Shipman enrolled at George Peabody College for Teachers (now affiliated with Vanderbilt University) Nashville, Tennessee, where she began residence work toward another bachelor's degree. This she received in August 1925. The following year (1925-26) she again taught high school English-this time at Jones County Agricultural High School in Ellisville, Mississippi. For three years Miss Shipman taught English and his­tory at Richton High School in Richton, Mississippi (1926-1928 and 1929-1930). The intervening year (1928-1929) was spent in teaching English at Newton High School in Newton, Mississippi. By attending George Peabody College for Teachers for four summer quarters (1927-1930) Miss Shipman earned her M. A. degree in English. She continued to take courses during the fall, winter and half of the spring quarters of 1930-1931 at Peabody College. As a graduate student there she taught one freshman and one sophomore class in the fall quarter and again in the spring. During the summer quarter of 1931 Miss Shipman taught at Middle Tennessee State Teachers College in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. At Burritt College in Spencer, Tennessee, her work was in both English and history (1932-1933). Then for three years (1933-1936) she taught English at Union High School in Union, Mississippi. Her next position was at East Mississippi Junior Col­lege in Scooba, Mississippi, where for ten years she taught English and sponsored dra­matics. In the summer of 1940, at Peabody College, Miss Shipman attended a six-weeks' course (or conference) for Missis­sippi junior college faculty members. Again, in 1942, she spent a six-weeks' summer term at Peabody College taking postgraduate courses. Loris Shipman's appointment to Appa­lachian State Teachers College (now Appa­lachian State University) came in 1946, when she was requested to serve as an English teacher at the freshman and sophomore level. She also taught speech and contemporary literature at times during her eighteen years at Appalachian (1946-1964). Known as one of the most challenging and inspiring teachers at the institution, she motivated literally thousands of students, including this writer, to improve not only their understanding and knowledge of English but their appreciation of it as well. She was known as a caring teacher who took a sincere professional inter­est in her students and also took great pride in them in their own subsequent careers. Upon retiring at Appalachian in 1964, Loris Shipman accepted an appointment at Lincoln Memorial University in Harrogate, Tennessee, where she taught freshman and sophomore English for one year (1964-1965). Her last teaching position came in 1965 at Brevard College, where she taught English until 1968. Miss Loris Shipman now resides in New Orleans, Louisiana, where she keeps up an active correspondence with former col­leagues and students. She has fond memories of Appalachian and continues to visit Boone upon occasion to see her many friends. This 1987 edition of The Appalachian Faculty Emeriti book is dedicated to Miss Shipman (please see the Dedication page). Sources: Long association and personal correspondence. - Dr. Richard D.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Occupation Professor Emeritus Biographical Text Professor Emeritus of Mathematical Sciences Oliver Paul Sanders (December 26, 1924 -), retired college professor and admin­istrator, was born near Caney, Oklahoma on a farm which his parents had homesteaded shortly after Oklahoma became a state in 1907. The youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest D. Sanders, originally from Missis­sippi, he decided by the age of two that it was not meant for him to be a farmer. Sanders attended public school in Caney, Oklahoma and was graduated from high school in 1941. From 1941 until 1943 he attended Murray Junior College in Tishomingo, Oklahoma. He then served in the U.S. Army from May, 1943 to February, 1946, during which time he also attended the Cita­del in Charleston, South Carolina. When discharged, Sanders was a sergeant in the infantry. After being discharged from the Army, he married Virginia Frederick, who was the daughter of his sixth grade teacher. The couple, now divorced, had two children: a son, who was born in December, 1950 in Fort Worth, Texas, and a daughter, who was born in February, 1954 in Sherman, Texas. Their daughter, who now lives in Johnson City, Tennessee, is married and has two sons. After he was married, Sanders then returned to college, attending Southeastern State College in Durant, Oklahoma, where he received a B.A. degree in mathematics in August, 1947. Sanders then taught high school for one year in Ryan, Oklahoma be­fore going to Oklahoma State University in Stillwater for graduate study. There he re­ceived a M.S. degree in mathematics in 1949. His masters thesis was entitled "A Study of Sampling Techniques". Sanders then ac­cepted a position as instructor of mathemat­ics at Arlington State College in Texas. After that time, with the exception of some work in industry and some time spent in doctoral study, he worked in higher education as a faculty member and an academic administra­tor. During the summers between 1950 and 1953, Sanders attended Southern Methodist University, Peabody College, and Oklahoma State University. In December of 1955 he received a Doctor of Philosophy degree with a major in mathematics from Oklahoma State. His dissertation was titled "On a The­ory of Distributions for Ultrahyperbolic Par­tial Differential Equations". From 1949 to 1962, Sanders taught at various colleges in Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas. He served at different types of colleges while trying to determine what type of institution he wished to work in and what role he was best suited for. In June, 1962 Sanders accepted the position of professor and chairman of the mathematics department at Appalachian State Teachers College (now Appalachian State University). He was well liked and highly respected by his students and had the reputation as a simply sterling teacher. He remained at Appalachian and served in vari­ous capacities until his retirement in 1987. He was appointed Dean of Academic Affairs in 1965, and then served as Provost from 1967 to 1969. From 1969 to 1972, he was the Vice President for Academic Affairs, and from 1972 to 1974 Sanders held the position of Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs. Sanders is the author of the following publications: An Integration Formula for Hyperbolic Partial Dif­ferential Equations with Region Interior to the Cone, Office of Naval Research Technical Report, 1955. Inertial Guidance System for Regulus II Missiles, Chance-Vought Aircraft Technical Report, 1956. An Integration Formula for Hyperbolic Partial Dif­ferential Equations with Region Exterior to the Cone, Mathematics Monthly, 1958. Elementary Mathematics: A Logical Approach, Inter­national Textbook Company, 1963. Topics from Elementary Algebra, Oklahoma State University, 1964. Elementary Mathematics: A Logical Approach, Sec­ond Edition, International Textbook Company, 1969. Dr. Sanders is now married to Dr. Marjorie Farris, who is on the faculty of the Reich College of Education at Appalachian State University. Sanders' current hobby is boating. He recently bought a 24 foot cabin cruiser and planned to sail to Tahiti in No­vember. While there, he may take sometime to work on a textbook in discrete mathemat­ics for which he is under contract to Prindle, Weber, and Schmidt.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Occupation Professor Emeritus Biographical Text Professor Emeritus of Industrial Education Carl A. Moeller (August 16, 1917 -), retired college professor, was born in Sagi­naw, Michigan, the son of William Moeller and Wilhelmina (Minnie) Moeller. His fa­ther, who had emigrated from Germany in 1912, was a head waiter by trade, having been trained in the schools of Germany as a"Kellner." Finding that such a profession had few opportunities in Saginaw, a lumber town, he then became a baker to support his growing family. Carl and his brother Walter lived through the depression of the Thirties as a close knit family, especially because of their father's death during this period. Taking advantage of the NRA and other programs, Carl worked at student work study after graduation from Saginaw High School and received the Associate of Arts degree from Bay City Junior College. He then enrolled at Michigan State University and received his teaching credentials and a Bachelor of Arts degree. His encounter with student life was brief since at that time it was necessary to work three jobs at thirty cents an hour to make ends meet. After a rather short stint at teaching in Michigan Moeller entered the U.S. Army Air Force. He trained at Lincoln, Nebraska and other schools as a fighter plane specialist. Much of his service time was spent in the continental United States. Carl was selected to attend Fordham University in the Army Specialized Training Program to prepare for administrative duties in the occupation of Germany. When this program was termi­nated due to lack of federal funding, he spent a short time as an infantry squad leader in the 413th Infantry before being reassigned to the Air Force. Discharged from the Army after four years of service, Moeller returned to Sagi­naw, Michigan where he taught industrial arts at the junior high school level. He then met Margaret Mitchell, who was pursuing a Master of music degree at Michigan State University, and they were married in 1948. They later had a son, William Howard. Bill, now a professional engineer with two daugh­ters, did his first traveling at the age of six months when Carl and Margaret left for Texas A & M for Carl to pursue a masters degree. There he worked as a graduate assis­tant and organized the development of the Crafts Center at the student center. Their daughter Marilyn was born in the old Army barracks that served as student housing and became the "Texan in the family." After Carl's graduation the family returned to Michigan, where he was employed as a training specialist for the Detroit Ordi­nance district, a training specialist for the Carboby division of General Electric, and a supervisor of technical training for the Chrysler Missile Division. The pace of work­ing in the constantly up and down missile business led to Moeller' s decision to return to academic life. After a period of time spent at the Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama, Carl completed the doctoral program at Wayne State University in Detroit. After the birth of a daughter, Carol, the Moellers came to North Carolina for Carl to teach at North Carolina State University in Raleigh. During his 12 year tenure there, Carl was engaged in numerous research projects and brought the American Foundrymen's Association there for the annual educational program. He worked with the Foundrymen's Association, the American Society of Training Directors and other industrial contacts to improve teacher education in the industrial arts. After a two year stay in Margaret's home town at Mississippi Southern Univer­sity, where he was active in program evaluation and the concept of visual literacy, Moeller returned to North Carolina to teach at Appalachian State University. Here he was active in teacher education, research in the teaching of manipulative and vocational skills through media, and the supervision of student teachers in the field of industrial arts education. He was active in supervising in­dustrial student internships and was respon­sible for the development of the state curricu­lum guides in graphics, automotive mechan­ics and machine shop. Carrying a varied teaching load of subjects ranging from power mechanics and plastics to the history of vocational education, Dr. Moeller still found time to serve on the Faculty Senate, on the University Safety Committee, and in na­tional offices in the field of industrial arts and education. Dr. Carl Moeller retired in January 1983 after 30 years in education. In retire­ment, he has found time to take university courses for interest, as well as to rebuild auto engines, and to travel to Austria, France, Germany, Italy, and throughout the United States. - Dr. Richard D.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Occupation Professor Emerita Biographical Text Professor Emerita of Reading Isabel Fleming Jones (December 15, 1911 -), retired college professor, was born in Hightown, Virginia, the daughter of Wil­liam Fleming Jones and Janetta Kerr Jones. Her grandparents were Jared and Isabella Fleming Jones and Samuel and Lucy Wad-dell Kerr. Isabel has one brother, Barry W. Jones, who is retired from the army with the rank of Chief Warrant Officer. Miss Jones graduated from Monterey high school in Monterey, Virginia. Miss Jones began her college work at Farmville State Teachers College (now Longwood College), Farmville, Virginia, in 1929 and completed the two-year course for prospective elementary school teachers in 1931. She then began her teaching career in a one-room, one-teacher school in Augusta County, Virginia. Two years later she was transferred to a graded elementary school in the same county. In 1947, she accepted a position in the city school system of Way­nesboro, Virginia where she remained until 1950; at that time she resigned to continue her professional education at the University of Virginia. While teaching, Jones had taken exten­sion courses to earn credit toward her bachelor's degree. She therefore was able to complete that degree during her first semes­ter of residence at the University of Virginia. She was then accepted into the graduate school there and began the work for her master's degree. She received the B.S. in education in 1951 and the M.Ed, in 1952. She began her doctoral program in 1952, also at U.Va., majoring in teacher education with minors in elementary education and secon­dary education. During this time she studied at Teachers College, Columbia University, for one semester. At the University of Vir­ginia, she also served as a graduate assistant to the director of educational research. Hav­ing completed her coursework and taken her oral examinations, she began to teach two undergraduate classes and took her written comprehensive exams. She worked on her dissertation, entitled, "A Study of the Rela­tionship of Various Types of Pre-Student Teaching Experiences to Success in Student Teaching," during her first two years at Appalachian and received the Ed.D. degree in 1955. In September of 1953, Isabel Jones joined the Staff at Appalachian State Teach­ers College (now Appalachian State Univer­sity) as an assistant professor in the Depart­ment of Education. In 1957 Dr. Jones earned the rank of associate professor and in 1963 she became a full professor. Dr. Jones engaged in several consultancies including a University of Virginia workshop in Norfolk in 1959; from 1964-1967 she was a consultant in the North Caro­lina Comprehensive School Improvement Project to schools in Buncombe County and Watauga County; she worked as an extension instructor for the University of Virginia in Tazewell, Gate City, and Chilhowie, Vir­ginia during the summer of 1968 and second semester of 1969; and, during the summers of 1969 and 1972, she was an instructor in the Nova Scotia Summer School for Teachers in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Jones was as busy at Appalachian as she was with her outside activities. She played a leading role in developing and implementing a program of professional laboratory experiences for students majoring in elementary education. She supervised student teachers in a number of off-campus schools. She taught extension courses in various locations in western North Carolina. She was a member of the Graduate Council (1953-1965), the Faculty Senate (1967-1977), the Professional Ethics Committee (1972-1973), the Academic Freedom and Tenure committee (1974-1977), the Student Evaluation Committee, and the Faculty Evaluation Committee. During 1973-74 she worked as an administrative intern with the Director of Extension and also served as area coordinator for the Reading Center in the Department of Counselor Education and Reading. She was vice-chairman of the Equal Opportunity Task force and Title IX co­ordinator in the Office of Equal Opportunity Programs from 1975-1977. She served on the selection committees for the chairman of the Department of Counselor Education and Reading, for the dean of the graduate school, and for the vice-chancellor for Academic Affairs. Dr. Jones was also a member of several professional organizations including the fol­lowing: the National Education Association, the North Carolina Education Association, the American Association of University Professors, the American Association of University Women, the North Carolina State Employees Association, Delta Kappa Gamma, Kappa Delta Pi, the College Read­ing Association, the Association for Student Teaching, and the Southern Council on Teacher Education. While an ASU faculty member, she attended a number of local, state, regional, and national conferences of professional organizations, frequently as a participant. Dr. Jones retired after 24 years of serv­ice to the University on June 30,1977. In her retirement Dr. Jones has spent much of her time planting trees, shrubs, and flowers at the country home she shares with her brother. She has traveled in Maryland and Virginia and has worked as a volunteer driver with the Watauga County Project on Aging. She is a member of the North Carolina Retired Gov­ernment Employees Association. During the 1984 campaign, she worked at the local Democratic Headquarters. Also, she is find­ing time to do much of the reading she had to postpone during previous years.

Johnson accepted a position as assis­tant professor of chemistry at Emory and Henry College of Virginia during 1945-46. In 1949 Johnson obtained his M.S. degree in chemistry (with a minor in physics) at Vir­ginia Polytechnic Institute and State Univer­sity (VPI&SU) in Blacksburg, Virginia. His master's thesis was on "Emission Spectros­copy of the Rare Earth Elements in Human Bone." Johnson remained at VPI&SU as an instructor of chemistry while working on his Ph.D. in chemistry (with a minor in physics) which he received in 1952. His doctoral dis­sertation was "A Study of the Shape Factor in Blends of Cellulose Nitrate." He then pur­sued advanced studies at the Brooklyn Poly­technic Institute, Brooklyn, New York, in 1953. In 1952, Johnson left teaching to be­come a research chemist with the Chem-strand Corporation, owned jointly by the American Vincase Corporation and Mon­santo Chemical Company, and worked with the firm until 1962. His first position was in the research center at Marcus Hook, Pennsyl­vania; then in Decatur, Alabama; and then in the Durham, North Carolina division to work in fundamental physicochemical research. In 1962, Dr. Johnson reentered the teaching field as an associate professor at Appalachian State University, teaching chemistry and physics. He was awarded status as full professor of chemistry in 1965. While at Appalachian, Johnson directed the research of at least 10 students in partial fulfillment of the research requirement for the M.S. degree, all of whom successfully defended their work and were awarded the degree. During his professional career, Johnson wrote numerous articles and papers, some of which are listed below: "Molecular Weight Distribution in Cellulose Nitrate," in Modern Textile Journal, June and August, 1953. "A Quantitative Study of the Rare Earth Elements," invited paper to the Virginia Academy of Sci­ence at Roanoke, Virginia, 1948. "X-Ray Methods in Fiber Research," presented to the Atlanta X-ray Society at the Georgia School of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia, 1958.

Mary Alice Huff (December 3, 1916-), was born in Willington in McCormick County, South Carolina. She is the daughter of J.W. and Alice B. Huff, both natives of Greenville County, South Carolina. Her late parents were childhood sweethearts and both attended colleges-her father graduated from Furman University and her mother graduated from Winthrop College. Miss Huff had three siblings: J.W. Huff, Jr., who lives in Green­ville, South Carolina, and who also gradu­ated from Furman University; Mrs. Ray Jarvis, who lives in Atlanta, Georgia, who graduated from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro; and, William Bramlett Huff, who while a junior at North Caro­lina State University volunteered for the United States Army, and was killed on Oki­nawa. Both her father and late brother Wil­liam shared Miss Huffs interest in writing poetry. J.W. Huff, Sr., taught Latin and served as Registrar at Mars Hill College for 30 years. Alice B. Huff, in her late years, worked at the Mars Hill Branch of the Madison County Public Library for over 20 years before her death in 1983, at age 92 1/2. Miss Huff received her junior college diploma from Mars Hill College (1934-36), and later attended the Mars Hill division of Mars Hill-Meredith-Wake Forest summer school in the summer of 1936. She then entered Limestone College (1936-38) where she majored in English and education and earned her A.B. degree. While she was at Limestone she had her first poems published in the Lantern, the school newspaper-literary publication. Mary Alice Huff served in Locust, North Carolina as a teacher for third- and fourth-graders in the Locust Elementary School (1938-39). She then attended the George Peabody College for Teachers (now a part of Vanderbilt University-1939-40) where she was awarded the B.S. in library science. She worked as an assistant librarian at Mars Hill College during the summer and fall of 1940. In 1941 she moved to Shawsville, Virginia where she worked both as a librarian and as a teacher at Shawsville High School (1941-42). In 1942 Mary Alice Huff was ap­pointed to the position of cataloger in the Appalachian State Teachers College (now Appalachian State University) library. Miss Huff increased, significantly, the volume of original cataloging undertaken in the Appa­lachian State University library. While at Appalachian, Miss Huff had to adapt to the many changes which occurred concerning the location and the system of the cataloging department. For her first 10 years she did all the cataloging duties, with one student assistant to letter the call numbers on the books. Then came an increased number of students and faculty and an increased book budget and the D.D. Dougherty Library underwent its first expansion. Miss Huff found herself in a new office, with two assistants, several student assistants, and herself with the title "Head of Cataloging." When the present library was built she had an office to herself and all the assistants, clerical workers and student assistants stayed busy in a big room around her. Then came cataloging by computer and a whole new era for the catalog department. Soon the new library needed enlarging and cataloging was moved back to the old library (which had been remodeled again and was being occu­pied by Military Science and various other departments) for the duration. For a year new books and re-cataloged books were wheeled by book carts from there to the library and old books were carried to the temporary quarters for re-cataloging. At last new quarters were ready and her area was moved back, com­puter and all, to one side of a huge room on the back of the building. The order depart­ment had the other side of the room. The whole thing was to be known as Technical Services. The serials department (formerly called "periodicals"), also part of technical services, was housed out by the reference stacks. Each department head has her/his own office (and phone) as did the technical services supervisor. There was a room for the computer (soon there were two) and a phone there as well as another phone for each of the departments. Truly, in Miss Huff's tenure at ASU there had been many changes, not only in her places of work and system of work, but in the entire school, including the name of the school, from Appalachian State Teachers College to Appalachian State University. Several of her sketches and paintings of scenes on the campus are of places and things no longer there--a snow scene of old Lovill Dorm, a lovely flower garden between old Lovill and old White Hall, and a view of the fir trees as seen through the open front doors of D.D. Dougherty Library (the tops of the trees were in plain view)--that was 40 years ago! On April 10,1968 Mary Alice served as an official representative for Appalachian State University at the inauguration of Presi­dent John Carl McCollister, Jr. of Limestone College. In 1982 she served as faculty chief marshal at commencement. She worked with all three of the head librarians who worked from the time of the opening of the university to the time of her retirement: Mrs. Emma H. Moore, Mr. Le­onard Eury, and Mr. Richard Barker. She also worked with all four presidents/chancel­lors: Dr. B.B. Dougherty, Dr. W.H. Plemmons, Dr. Herbert W. Wey, and Dr. John E. Thomas. As her retirement neared, she worked late almost every night and some weekends to catalog as much as possible before it was time to leave. Miss Huff played an active part in the activities of the First Baptist Church of Boone. She taught Sunday school for the nine-year old girls in the Junior Department and also served as secretary for the Interme­diate Department of Sunday school. Miss Huff was affiliated with the North Carolina Library Association, the Western North Carolina Library Association, and the Southeastern Library Association. Miss Huff retired at the end of the 1981 -82 academic year, completing forty years of service to Appalachian State University. In a letter to Miss Huff from Cratis Williams on the occasion of her retirement. Dr. Williams wrote the following: "In terms of service to the University, you have the longest tenure in the academic staff, 40 years. You have served under every chief ad­ministrator in the institution's history from Dr. Dougherty to Chancellor Thomas, and you have worked for every head librarian ASU has ever had. You came in the fall of 1942 to a little college with an enrollment of 650 and a library with 10 or 12 thousand volumes in it in a remote town with a population of about 1600. You have seen the college grow into a university with an enrollment of 10,000 and the village grow into a little city with a population of 12,000. You helped the library grow from a barely adequate little facility to an imposing structure that houses nearly a half million items. You have seen the faculty grow from about 35 members in 1942 to one of nearly 600 members in 1982. You have given us a lifetime of dedicated service and support. You fully deserve a retirement dinner and the coming together of friends and associates to do honor to you personally and to your long period of service to the institution and the com­munity." With the aid of Bob Snead, the catalog­ing department of the library arranged a special helicopter ride around Boone for Miss Huff in honor of her retirement. Upon retirement, she moved to Mars Hill to live with and take care of her mother (deceased June 7, 1983) as well as to start a new life and new career. During retirement, she is devot­ing time to gardening, including starting a new orchard, reading (especially histories of counties), old-fashioned rug hooking, and trying out new recipes. She is also enjoying visits from her family whenever possible. Sources: Appalachian State University files and personal correspondence. - Dr. Richard D. Howe and Miss J.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Occupation Professor Emeritus Biographical Text Professor Emeritus of English Hans Gerhard Heymann (December 21,1915-), college and university professor, was bornin Berlin and reared in Stettin, Pomerania, Germany (now a part of Poland), the son of Mr. and Mrs. Otto Heymann (both deceased), who owned a grocery store and a nursery near Stettin. Heymann received his entire formal education in German schools and universi­ties: B.A. (Abitur), Stettin, Pomerania, in 1936; seven years of graduate study (1938-1940, 1947-1952) in English, history, and German-first state examination (Referen-darexamen), including philosophy (1950), second (pedagogic) state examination (Assessorexamen),(1951); Ph.D. in English and history, magna cum laude, with disserta­tion on Wordsworth's "The Excursion," from the Johann-Wolfgang-Goethe Univer­sity of Frankfort-on-the-Main, West Ger­many, in 1952. While a graduate student Heymann was drafted into the German Army in 1939 and after two years of training, he was com­missioned a lieutenant and served on the Russian front in 1941 and 1942. Later, while serving with the Afrika Corps in 1943 under Field Marshal Erwin Rommel in North Africa, he was captured by the British and turned over to the Americans and sent to the United States. Although an officer, Heymann volunteered for work and served as an interpreter for German-English translation and later as a teacher of English at both Ruston, Louisiana, and Como, Mississippi. In 1944 he volunteered for work with the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company in Winston-Salem, and also worked on several farms near Lexington, North Carolina. The kind reception he received in North Carolina at this time was one of the major reasons he decided to make his home in this state. Upon returning to his native land after the war, Heymann completed his formal education and decided to make the United States of America his "country of choice." Heymann accepted a position at Lenoir-Rhyne College in Hickory, North Caro­lina, in 1953, teaching both English and German. Even before he and his wife Christa and their two sons, Hans and Harald, became American citizens--which took the manda­tory five years--Dr. Heymann was appointed to full professor status and was named head of the department of English, speech, and dramatic art in 1957. While serving Lenoir-Rhyne College, Heymann made many sig­nificant changes and improvements in the department, too many to mention, but most importantly, he introduced a nationally ac­claimed English honors program. During the 75th anniversary of Lenoir-Rhyne College in 1966, the students dedicated their yearbook, the HACAWA, to Heymann. Their dedica­tion reads: To one who stresses academic excellence as a challenge to students to think, to reflect, to question; To one who expands the classroom to encompass the world, its problems, its destiny; To one who brings to the campus a deep sense of dignity, of worth, of purpose; Toone who stands for Truth; We, the Class of 1966, dedicate the HACAWA to Dr. Hans G. Heymann. During the summer of 1966, Heymann was a guest professor of the Deutsche Akademische Austauschdienst at the Uni­versities of Hamburg, Frankfort, and Freiburg, West Germany, lecturing and con­ducting research on Goethe and Wordsworth. When leaving Lenoir-Rhyne College, he received a letter of commenda­tion from its president and a plaque for "dis­tinguished service." In 1969 Dr. Heymann was invited to join the faculty of Appalachian State Univer­sity (ASU), as professor of English and direc­tor of the English honors program. He had been a visiting professor in the ASU depart­ment of English during both summer ses­sions of 1968. Heymann was instrumental in bringing departmental and interdisciplinary honors programs to ASU with initial funds amounting to $30,000 from the then North Carolina Board of Higher Education (now the Board of Governors). Over the years he has helped graduating English honor stu­dents win Rotary, Danforth Foundation, and other fellowships. In 1974 during the 75th anniversary of ASU, Heymann won an Out­standing Professor Award for Excellence in Teaching from the Board of Trustees. In addition to his outstanding ability in teaching, Heymann is also a scholar who has written textbooks, articles, reviews, and sev­eral translations into German. During his exemplary tenure at ASU, Heymann was elected for a three-year term on the Faculty Senate and has served on and chaired numerous faculty and university committees. He also was professionally af­filiated with the Modem Language Associa­tion, the South Atlantic Modem Language Association, the National Council of Teachers of English, the National Collegiate Hon­ors Council, and the North Collegiate Honors Council, and the North Carolina English Teachers Association, on whose board of directors he served from 1980-1983. Heymann's most recent Boone com­munity service has been mainly with the local Rotary club: chairman, Rotary Foundation Scholarship and Awards Committee; chair­man, Chan Gordon Memorial Scholarship Committee; member, District 767 Rotary Foundation Scholarship and Awards Sub-Committee, and adviser and coordinator for Rotary exchange students at ASU. Further­more, he was a charter member of the Boone chapter of the American Field Service, which sponsors exchange students on the high school level. Heymann had many other honors be­stowed on him. Among them are: The Tar Heel Pin, given by the government of Luther Hodges, and the Distinguished Service Cross First Class, awarded by President Gustav Heinemann of West Germany for Heymann's efforts to improve the relation­ship between the USA and Germany. This award was presented to him in 1974 at the ASU summer commencement exercises by Mr. Roland Gottlieb, the West German Consul-General. On the occasion of the Heymann's 30th anniversary on their arrival as immigrants in the USA, Dr. and Mrs. Heymann received a congratulatory letter from the President of the United States, Ronald Reagan, and from Congressman James Broyhill. In addition, Governor James H. Hunt honored Heymann with the Order of the Long Leaf Pine "as one of North Carolina's outstanding citizens." Further­more, the administration of ASU honored Heymann with a special banquet and a plaque for his services as Director of the English Honors Program and named one of the Chancellor's scholarships for him. Dr. Heymann retired from ASU in May, 1984, after serving 15 years. In retire­ment, Heymann plans to do more hunting for duck and geese at the Outer Banks, go trout fishing in the Blue Ridge Mountains, play tennis and travel with Mrs. Heymann, and visit and vacation with their sons and their grandchildren, Amy, Gavin, and Wesley. Their oldest son, Hans, whose graduate work was interrupted by four years of service in the US Air Force during the Vietnam War, holds three graduate degrees from ASU and is presently working for his doctorate at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. He is Director of Extension Services at Mitchell College in Statesville. Harald, a summa cum laude graduate of ASU, is a professor in the School of Dentistry of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, from which he received his DDS degree in 1978.

He later discovered that Norm Leafe, the late supervisor of Health, Physical Education and Safety, Department of Public Instruction for North Carolina, was Chief of Fire Direc­tion of one of the artillery battalions of the 63rd Infantry Division during World War II. After they met in 1970 during one of Leafe's visits to ASU, they discovered that they had something in common: they had often been in radio communication when Gruensfelder directed artillery fire from Leafe's battalion while in combat. Until 1970 he had only known Leafe's voice. While at ASU Gruensfelder served in the initiation of planning and development of the degree in recreation and leisure studies. Source: Personal correspondence. He was also joint appointee (1973-81) with secondary education for the improvement of the student teacher experience and for liaison between the physical education teacher train­ing program and secondary education. He retired from his position of Coordinator of the Recreation Degree Program at Appala­chian at the end of the fall semester, 1985. The Gruensfelders reside in Boone. N.C. - Dr. Richard D.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Occupation Professor Emerita Biographical Text Professor Emerita of Secondary Education Margaret English Gragg (April 23, 1919 - ), English teacher, guidance coun­selor, college professor, director of a univer­sity teaching center, and a supervisor of stu­dent teachers, was born in Burnsville, North Carolina. She is the only daughter and oldest of three children of Samuel Louis English and Elizabeth McPheters English of Yancey County. Her father was a lumberman and a Clerk of Superior Court in Yancey County; her mother, a teacher for twenty years. In 1941 Mrs. Gragg earned a B.S. degree, cum laude, in education with a minor in English from Appalachian State Teachers College. She earned the M.A. degree in edu­cation and English from Appalachian in 1950. In 1963 she completed requirements for certification in guidance and counseling. On December 20, 1942, Margaret English married Frederick Morris (Fred M.) Gragg, the son of William Roy and Elmyra Shook Gragg of Boone. A 1942 graduate of Appalachian, Gragg was an English teacher for one year. Following his first year of teaching, he served almost three years in the United States Navy. After his years in the Navy, he served as Clerk of Superior Court in Watauga County for seven years and as per­sonnel manager for IRC/TRW, Boone divi­sion, for fifteen years. At the time of his death from a heart attack, he was also a member of the Boone Town Council. The Graggs are parents of one daugh­ter: Margaret Elizabeth Gragg (April 8, 1944—) earned an A.B. degree in English from Duke University in 1966 and a Master of Arts in teaching in 1972 from the Univer­sity of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She is an English teacher and the principal of the high school division of Charlotte Country-Day School. Before joining the faculty at the Country Day School, she taught English in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg schools for nine years. Upon graduation from college, Mrs. Gragg was employed by Appalachian State Teachers College. She was first an English teacher and critic teacher at Appalachian High School, the laboratory school of the college, from 1941-1944. She left the high school for two years in 1944 and then re­turned to her teaching position in 1946. From 1946-1965, Mrs. Gragg held a variety of positions at Appalachian High School and at Appalachian State Teachers College. At the high school she was English teacher, chairman of the English department, and critic or supervising teacher in the stu­dent teaching program of the college. She was also part-time counselor (1949-1965) and assistant principal (1957-1958). In addi­tion, she was an adjunct member of the Department of Education of the college, teaching to college English majors the "Methods of Teaching High School Eng­lish" from 1949-1965. During the summer terms of 1959 and 1960, she was the director of English workshops sponsored by the col­lege for public school English teachers. When the Watauga county high schools were consolidated in 1965, Mrs. Gragg went to the new Watauga High School as Guidance Director-Counselor. During the summer terms of 1966 and 1967, she continued to work with Appalachian, serving as assistant director of student teaching workshops for public school teachers. From 1974-1976 she was Assistant Principal for Curriculum as well as Guidance Director and counselor for seniors at Watauga High School. In 1974 Mrs. Gragg was named 'Teacher of the Year" by the Watauga High faculty. Over a period of years, she served as a member of visiting teams to evaluate fifteen or more high schools for the Southern Association of Col­leges and Schools. In 1976 Mrs. Gragg moved from Watauga High School to Appalachian State University as a member of the Department of Secondary Education. From 1976-1984 she served as Director of the Appalachian Teach­ing Center in Lenoir and the supervisor of student teachers in Caldwell and Catawba counties. In the College of Education, she served on a number of committees, including the Field Advisory Council for Student Teaching and the Scholarship Committee. Mrs. Gragg has been an active member of a number of professional organizations for educators. She is a member of Delta Kappa Gamma, an honor society for women teach­ers, and Phi Delta Kappa, an education frater­nity. A charter member (1948) and a three-term president of the Boone Business and Professional Women's Club, Mrs. Gragg remains active in that organization. In 1975 she was selected the "BPW Woman of the Year." After forty-one years of teaching in Boone and Watauga County, Mrs. Gragg retired from Appalachian State University in June 1984. In November 1984 she was elected to a four-year term on the Watauga County Board of Education and was then elected by the Board to serve as chairman. Her lifetime interest in education and in the youth of Watauga County prompted her to continue working in education, even after retiring. In her retirement she plans to devote much of her time to her hobbies, sewing and reading-especially reading with her Laurel Book Club friends of thirty years.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Occupation Professor Emeritus Biographical Text Professor Emeritus of Librarianship. William Leonard Eury (October 16, 1904 -), retired teacher and librarian, was born in Gastonia, North Carolina, the son of James Walter Eury and Lona Dee (Douglas) Eury. After earning his B.A. degree at Duke University in 1926, Eury began his career as a teacher of mathematics and French at Clarkton High School in Clarkton, North Carolina where he served until 1929. Eury first worked at Appalachian State University in the library (now the Carol Grotnes Belk Library) during the summer of 1928. He filled in for Mrs. Emma Horton Moore, who had been in an accident Presi­dent Dougherty asked Mr. Eury to "look after the library for her while she was hors de combat." Eury had no library school training and was hired only because he had served as a student assistant in the Duke University Library. After Eury's summer employment experience, Mrs. Moore encouraged Dr. Dougherty to hire him as an assistant. He fulfilled his one-year contract at Clarkton High School, and the next year came to Appalachian to be Mrs. Moore's assistant. His first full year at Appalachian was 1929-30, the year when Appalachian Normal School became Appalachian State Teachers College, a four-year institution. From that time until Dr. Dougherty retired, he always referred to Eury as "the boy who helped Mrs. Moore." When Eury first went to the Appala­chian library, it was in a small room on the top floor of the old administration building and had possibly 2,000 volumes in the collection, many of them badly in need of repair. Moore and Eury almost had to "begin from scratch," and the budget for purchasing books and materials was very small. First of all, Eury had to go to library school to earn a degree in Library Science, since at the time Appalachian was trying to get accreditation from the Southern Association. President Dougherty allowed Eury to go to Nashville only three months at a time, so he received his B.S. in library science in 1937 and his M.S. in library science in 1951 (with the aid of the G.I. Bill). During World War II Eury served for three years with the United States Air Force, 18 months of which was spent as a member of the 449th Bomb Group of the 15th Air Force in Italy. Afterward, Eury returned to Appala­chian. Since teachers colleges at that time always got the short end of the stick as far as appropriations were concerned, the budget for the library books and supplies was inade­quate for the planned growth of the library. Although the institution grew in size and number of students, the growth in the acqui­sition of volumes was slow at best. (Eury observes that the University Librarian Rich­ard Barker is "counting his blessings" now that Appalachian State University is a part of The University of North Carolina.) The following were accomplished dur­ing Eury's forty year affiliation with the Appalachian State University library: 1) Expansion of the book and periodicals collection (Library staff and faculty worked in unison in checking bibliographies and other sources to build up a suitable collection.) 2) Beginning a separate Music Library Collection (housed in the Music Department). 3) Planning the Appalachian Collection (now known as the William Leonard Eury Appalachian Collec­tion). 4) Planning the Curriculum Laboratory. Eury's biggest contribution over the years, however, was assembling a dedicated and helpful staff who were always interested in giving excellent and personalized service. The student body was smaller at the time and the staff were able to give more individual attention then than would be possible today with such a huge number of students. Eury retired from Appalachian State University and the Belk Library in 1970 and moved to an old white house on a hill (Highacre) in Bessemer City, North Caro­lina. A bachelor, Eury lives with three of his sisters and is "waited on hand and foot!" He spends much of his free time in November each year signing and addressing hundreds of Christmas cards that he sends to people he knows in places he has lived in Bessemer City, Gastonia, Durham, and Boone, North Caro­lina and Nashville, Tennessee. The local post office thought he might have to get an extra ZIP code! He also occasionally visits the Appalachian library. He takes a trip to New York City every January to see a new group of plays but also enjoys the plays in Bessemer City. He says he never misses a production of the Little Theatre of Gastonia. and he serves on the arts council. On Mondays, he delivers hot lunches to 10 housebound people as part of Bessemer City's meals-on-wheels pro­gram. In addition, he helps with fund-raising for the Lion's Club. "You name it. and we sell it," he boasts. Since his retirement, Eury has received two awards: in 1981 he was honored as "Lion of the Year"; and, in 1982 he received the Chamber of Commerce "Citizen of the Year" award. Eury serves on the board of the Gaston County Department of Aging. He is a mem­ber of a senior citizen's group at his church, and says the members gather frequently for meals out. He holds membership in various organizations including: Phi Delta Kappa, American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Air Force Association, Bessemer City Chamber of Commerce, Bessemer City Lions Club, American Library Association, Southeastern Library Association and the North Carolina Library Association. He says he is involved in so many activities because he likes to be with people and to find out what is going on. Eury says he likes his life now, in a comfortable home with all the modern conveniences. "They can talk about the 'Good Old Days' all they want, but they can have them," he says. This 1987 edition of The Appalachian Faculty Emeriti book is dedicated to Mr. Eury (please see the Dedication page).

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Occupation Emerita Biographical Text Dean of Women Emerita Maxie Greene Edmisten (May 7, 1909-) was born in Watauga County, North Carolina to Polly Wanen Greene and Andrew Jackson Greene, who was an English teacher at Appalachian State Teachers College (now Appalachian State University) from 1915 to 1939. She has two brothers, Ralph Gorrell Greene (now of Mountain City, Tennessee) and Doughton Lester Greene (now of Boone, North Carolina). Her grandparents were Elizabeth Lawrence and Hiriam Greene, and Sarah Barlow and Martin Warren. Maxie Greene married Claude Charles Edmisten (1906 - 1953), a native Wataugan building contractor. In 1936 they had one son, William L. Edmisten. Mrs. Edmisten has three grandchildren: Mary Elizabeth Coffey of Charlotte, North Carolina; Sandra Trexler of Boone, North Carolina; and William L. Edmisten, Jr., of Atlanta, Georgia. While attending Cove Creek High School from 1923 to 1927, Mrs. Edmisten was active in both the debate club and the French club. She then did her undergraduate work at Appalachian State Teachers College from 1927-1931, earning her B.S. degree in elementary education during the second year that the bachelor of science degree was awarded by the college. The school was very strict then, but nonetheless, Maxie said, "I always enjoyed school. I enjoyed most of my classes, enjoyed studying and even enjoyed taking exams," and knew on a personal basis her professors, including I.G. Greer, A.M. Norton, and Ida Belle Ledbetter. She graduated cum laude and was a member of the Philaration Society. But she found time, anyway, for the normal girls' rebellion against university rules, such as the midnight picnic in her dorm room after the 11 p.m. lights out. "We ate by flashlight and it tasted good because we were sneaking," she has since confessed! Maxie Edmisten taught in Watauga County schools, North Carolina from 1929-1931, then in Cabarrus County schools, North Carolina from 1932-35. After having a baby and staying home to care for it, she returned to teaching in 1939 at Valle Crucis Elementary School in Watauga County. In 1956 she accepted a position as residence counselor at Appalachian State University. Additionally, while teaching during these years Edmisten worked toward her M.A. degree at Appalachian in elementary education, did post-gradutate work in counseling in 1956-57. Maxie Edmisten was named Dean of Women at Appalachian State University in 1957. During her 14 year tenure as dean, she saw and encouraged many, many changes in the university regulations regarding its women. She worked for equality of rules for men and women, and mediated the natural changes toward more liberalization of rules over the years. "I've always accepted as natural the difference in attitudes between youth and age. It's a natural thing and out of it comes change," said Maxie. The university did change under Maxie Edmisten's wise guidance. Having attended the university during a time when girls could go up town only once a week (and only then with chaperone), had to stay seated at meals until all the boys had left the room, were forbidden to stand near automobiles for extended conversations, and having entered the office of dean of women when co-eds could not wear pants except to P.E. class and 9:00 p.m. was their nightly curfew; Edmisten later marshalled in an era where dormitory curfews were nonexistent except for freshmen, and the woman student--needless to say!--wore what she wanted to. But at listening and caring, two facets of a "woman's role" which have never become outdated, Mrs. Edmisten excelled, as her many letters of thanks from former students and students' parents attest. The character of Appalachian was enhanced by Mrs. Edmisten's warm and compassionate presence over the years, and the women students both administrative and personal. Professional affiliations during this time included membership in the Business and Professional Women's Association, the Admissions and Readmissions Committee, the Financial Aid Committee, the Traffic and Campus Management Committee, and the Student Life Committee, as well as membership in Delta Kappa Gamma. When "Dean Eddy", as she was affectionately called, retired in 1971, she was honored with a reception organized by ASU students to acknowledge the contributions she had made to the university and its women. At that time, one of the many newspaper tributes to her exclaimed: "Dean Eddy" has worked hard for her girls--helping them to face the everyday demands of life. Always a willing listener, she is empathetic with her advice, treating her girls like women... She is a concerned person-concerned for her fellow man. And she is a person of great faith, especially regarding young people. Unlike many of her generation, she does not adhere to the doctrine which considers the young hopeless. A diplomat, a politician, a mother, and a friend, she is a natural negotiator. Her ability to understand makes her a willing compromiser, however, she will not compromise her own values. But "Dean Eddy" is leaving... We will miss "Dean Eddy," and we thank her for all that she has done for students at this University. For these many accomplishments, and being one of those rare personalities who give character to a school, "Dean Eddy" Edmisten received emerita status in 1972, after life-long association with the university. Since retirement, her activities have included reading, limited traveling, sewing, Swedish embroidering, and volunteering with the Red Cross. She recently received a plaque for having taught Sunday school for 50 years at Willowdale Church. Sources: Appalachian State University files, long association and personal correspondence.

Disbrow attended Davis Technical High School. Dur­ing his high school years he participated in activities such as choir, orchestra, and the male quartet. He graduated in 1937. Disbrow has one sister, Ilo Disbrow, and one brother, Loren Disbrow. Disbrow is married to Maxine Riegling Disbrow, the daughter of Edith and Floyd Riegling. Disbrow served in the United States Navy from 1940-45 where he was trained in navigation and spent most of his time at sea. While in the navy he was stationed in Iceland, Newfoundland, Panama, Hawaii, Australia, New Guinea, Philippine Islands and Japan. Disbrow was discharged after the end of World War II at the rank of Chief Quarter­master in October 1945. After leaving the navy Disbrow attended the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music (now a part of the University of Cincinnati) where he received his B.M. degree and M.M. degree in music theory and composition in 1949. Disbrow also accumulated 48 semester hours beyond his M.M. degree from Michi­gan State University (summers 1950,1953), University of Wisconsin (summer 1963), and Eastman School of Music (summers 1963-65, 1968-69). Additionally, Disbrow at­tended symposia in classical music in Vi­enna, Austria (summer 1969) and in renais­sance music in both Vienna, Austria and Venice, Italy (summer 1972). In 1949 Disbrow organized and taught courses in the first music department of Jackson Junior College in Jackson, Michi­gan. He also organized a group of private music teachers from the community to con­tribute to the college music program. In 1951 Disbrow was recalled to active duty by the United States Navy during the Korean War. He was sent to Kodiak, Alaska where he served as chief quartermaster in convoy and routing, admiral's staff. While in Kodiak Disbrow organized a special 100-voice choir to perform a special Christmas program, and arranged the entire score of "South Pacific" for the military band for performances in Kodiak and other cities and posts in Alaska and the Aleutians. Disbrow returned to Jackson Junior College in 1952 where he continued to teach music until 1966. While teaching at Jackson Junior Col­lege, Disbrow joined the Jackson Symphony Orchestra where he played viola and violin and served as assistant concertmaster. In 1956 Disbrow organized the Jackson Choral Society, a semi-professional choir, which consisted of 32 members hand picked by Disbrow. Disbrow conducted the Jackson Choral Society until 1966. From 1956-1960 Disbrow served as director and minister of music at the First Methodist Church of Jackson, Michigan. As director and minister of music, Disbrow coordinated all the musical activities of the church and performed all of the necessary administrative work. Disbrow resigned his church position in 1960 to dedicate more of his time to the junior college. In 1961 Disbrow was appointed chair­man of the humanities division of Jackson Junior College. In this position he helped coordinate the activities of the foreign lan­guage, art, music, speech and English depart­ments. Disbrow came to Appalachian State Teachers College (now Appalachian State University) in 1966 as an assistant professor in the Department of Music.
