FRANK STEPHEN PUGH, Educator. Years of service as professor of industrial 
education at the University of Porto Rico and elsewhere prefaced the 
appointment of Frank S. Pugh to the position of industrial supervisor for the

  Born in Chester, England, on Dec. 26, 1885, he is the son of Robert Edward 
and Katherine (Farrell) Pugh. His education was received at the St. Francis 
Xaviers College in Liverpool, England. He was appointed to the dual position

served also as a lieutenant in the machine gun detachment of the Porto Rican 
national army in 1918. He accepted an appointment as director of industrial 
education in the public schools of Durham, N.C., a position he relinquished to 
come to Hawaii. Since his arrival here Professor Pugh has contributed many

served as a vice-president of the Kauai Teachers’ Association.
  In addition to his teaching duties, Professor Pugh is a registered surveyor.
