After graduating from high school.
Maund received a senatorial schol-
arship which enabled him to gradu-
ate from Temple University with
bachelor of science degree in ac-
counting. His graduation conceded
with the depression, and he then

job. His mother, who was working,
helped finance her son through
Columbia University where he re-
ceived masters degree in ac-
counting.
Although he was armed with a
good education, Maund at first had
difficulty in obtaining a job. Final
ly, he secured a position with the
Shut-In-Society in Philadelphia as
bookkeeper, and the Philadelphia
Society for Crippled Children and
Adults hired him on a part time
basis to teach bookkeeping to its
Secretarial classes.
In 1943 Maund left to head up the
accounting department of Phila-
delphia munitions firm, and has
held various responsible positions
in industry. In 1850 he returned to
the Philadelphia Society to serve as
comptroller on full time basis.
AS hobby, Maund enjoys music
and often spends an evening play
ing the violin in the Upper Darby
and Roxboro Symphony Orches-
tras. Brought up in an atmosphere
of love, courage and security, he
reflects these attributes in his daily
living. He is married, owns his
own home, drives his own car and
is respected member of his COM
nunity.
