The Spotlight
In the spotlight this week at
A. T. Mahan is Emily Patch, the
schools fifth grade teacher. Ar-
riving in Iceland last August,
this is Miss Patch’s first over-
seas teaching assignment.
Teaching on a military base is
not a new experience to Miss
Patch as she began her career in
teaching at Glasgow AFB in Mon-
tana. She was there for four years
and taught the fifth and seventh
grades from 1962 to 1966.
Calling Popular, Mont, home
Miss Patch took her bachelor of
arts degree at the University of
Seattle with a major in social
science and an emphasis in his-
tory. It was while attending col-
lege that she first acquired an
Emily Patch
interest in the overseas program.
Combining a pursuit of know-
ledge with a recreational pastime
this weeks spotlight teacher en-
joys reading in her off duty time.
Traveling also occupies much of
her free time. Interested in seeing
the varied landscape of Iceland
she decided the purchase of a
four-wheel drive vehicle as the best
means of transportation over the
rugged Iceland landscape. At-
tempting to gain a knowledge of
the terrain as well as the
language she is taking a course
in Icelandic through the Univer-
sity of Maryland.
Showing an interest in other
European ports-of-call, Miss
Patch has taken advantage of the
R & R flights to London and
Spain. Over spring vacation she
plans to visit northern Iceland.
This will be Miss Patch’s last
year here at Keflavik as she has
accepted a teaching assignment
in Ethiopia next year.

“Have any of your childhood
hopes been realized?”
“Yes. When mother used to pull
my hair I wished that I didn’t
have any.”
Government Examiner — “How
did you come to mark this man’s
paper 101 per cent? Don’t you
know that nothing can be more
than 100 percent?”
New Assistant — “Yes, but this
man answered one question we
didn’t ask!”
“So you and your neighbor are
not on speaking terms?”
“No, My neighbor sent me a can
of oil to use on my lawn mower
when I started to cut the grass
at six in the morning.”
“And what did you do?”
“I sent it back and told him to
use it on his wife when she star-
ted singing at eleven at night.”
BLUE AND GOLD—The Annual Blue and Gold Dinner for the Naval
Station’s Cub Scouts was held this past Monday evening at the CPO
