Word had it that a double fea ture arrived on the Square. Sure enough, not one, but two unwed male professors appeared. It had also been rumored that both mem bers of this dynamic duo are cute and nice, but that’s the least of their qualifications. For the fourth time in four years there is a new math teacher, the one and only Richard Kruse. To the squadron of history profs gal loped gallant Charles (Chuck) Gib son, Esquire. Mr. Kruse flamed into Salem C. from Interior, South Dakota, which explains the mystery of the foreign South Dakota plates on the beige Rambler often seen parked down by the Fine Arts Center. Through Stephen Nohlgren, who accom panied Mr. Kruse during their undergraduate careers at Augustana College, Salem and the new math teacher were united. Having received his masters de gree at the University of Montana, Mr. Kruse is at present trying to get the freshmen and a few strug gling upperclassmen to comprehend the definition of a vertical asymp tote and other principles of Math 10. As if this is not enough, he also teaches Math 303 to the more learned and sophisticated scholars. He aspires to greater levels of edu cation for himself—to obtain a doc torate in math after a few (hectic) years of teaching experience. Mr. Gibson is a cohort and fellow conspirator of Hewson Michie and Dr. Errol Clauss of Western civili zation. In addition, Mr. Gibson also has found time to teach com parative government and political parties. In a short time, Mr. Gib son has become acquainted with the present and past Salem stu dents, for in addition to fraterniz- - HHH - (Continued from page 2) enthusiastic.

Collins, Mississippi, is the pre vious home of our illustrious, new history teacher, born on the date of Hitler’s suicide, truly an historic occasion. Mr. Gibson came to our hallowed halls via the University of Mississippi where he received both his undergraduate and gradu ate degrees. When asked about their impres sions of Salem, the pair was only too eager to offer their opinions. Mr. Kruse said that he was de lighted to find that even the aver age Salem student was much brighter than he had expected. (Guess we showed him that the dumb Southern belle is either a myth, or does not attend Salem C.) Mr. Gibson was surprised at the closeness and understanding be tween the students and faculty. He said that he had almost expected to find the girls walking around in middy-blouses and bloomers, giving obeisance to every teacher passing by them. At any rate, Salem students do offer a warm welcome to the ‘dy namic duo’ of Kruse and Gibson, Good-luck! GERALD GOODMAN By Sara Engram Troubador harpist Gerald Good man highlighted assembly Wednes day, October 30. Mr. Goodman was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and began to study piano at an early age. At fifteen he began his formal train ing in harp with Alice Chalifoux, then later studied with Carlos Sal- zedo. He has appeared at leading hotels and clubs and in off-Broad- way productions. In addition to the standard harp repertory, Mr. Good man is prominent in introducing the works of new modern com posers as well as in seeking out ancient legends and ballads of the Medieval period. Beginning with three ancient bal lads, Mr. Goodman displayed both his instrumental and vocal skills as he sang the ballads to his own ac companiment. Two Medieval Dances for solo harp, followed by other ballads for voice and harp completed the first part of the pro gram. An exciting performance of Ra vel’s “Introduction and Allegro” for harp and piano climaxed Part II of the program, wdth Tom Schilling at the piano. Part III consisted of Three Preludes for solo harp by Carlos Salzedo. These preludes al lowed Mr. Goodman to display his technical skill, one of them, “La Desirade,” requiring 132 pedal changes. Since time w’as running short, Mr. Goodman performed (Continued on page 4) a leap from our. j4nM ■u •- L 14 Karat gold DIAMOND PIERCED EARRINGS $1095 your ^1 choke mUiiii ( ■ A. f I lobe ih.ii'c B.
