Mrs. Phelps Succeeds Mrs. Hollis In Saint Mary’s Business Dept. Mrs. Leon H. Phelps, of Raleigh, has succeeded Mrs. Jack Hollis as teacher of business correspondence, business law, advanced stenography, and typing in the Saint Mary’s busi ness department. She resigned^ her position as secretary to Mr. W. L. Mayer, Director of Registration at State College, in order to assume her new duties on January 5. Although she has lived in Raleigh for the past nine years, Mrs. Phelps is originally from Swanquarter. She specialized in high school teach ing, majoring in English and French, at the Eastern Carolina Teachers’ College in Greenville, where she received her A.B. degree. Later she did postgraduate work at the University of North Carolina. After finishing school, Mrs. Phelps taught high school English and French at Fairfield for a while. Soon after coming to Raleigh, she took the comi)lete business and secre tarial course at Miss Hardbarger’s School, and the following year she taught there. Then she began her work as secretary to the State Col lege Director of Registration. LIKKS WOKK .AT S. .AI. S. Airs. Phelps says she is happy to teach at Saint Alary’s, as she has always been connected with schools. She 'believes that in her work here her experience in studying and teach ing in a business college, combined with her experience in a business office, will help her to “anticipate many problems” that will confront the girls when they begin their office careers. She says, “I think my time is well spent in trying to help the girls become well-trained secreta ries.” Airs. Phelps is looking forward to her contacts with the girls. When she remarked that Airs. Hollis’ en thusiasm encouraged her to accept her' Saint Alary’s position, she added, “And I have not been disappointed!” Time Current Event Contest To Be Held Saint Alary’s, as in previous years, will take part in a current events contest sponsored by 7’iwe, The Weekly News-magazine, with prizes to be presented by the publishers. Over 250 private schools and jun ior colleges in .35 states and the Dis trict of Columbia will share this year in the competition, with com petitors coming directly from the schools.
