Webster says, one Whose occupation is to instruct. Ours came in all sizes, shapes, and descriptions. Their tempers varied with the hour and the class. They could be found under a stack of homework to be graded, inside homes with their families, behind a menacing scowl, and in front of the lunch line. The A students adored them, the C students put up with them, the F students could take them or leave them - but preferred the latter. Teachers were like guard on a basketball team. They brought the knowledge to the students so that they might score against ignorance. They helped their pupils set up curricula for future education. Teachers served as second members of the team and gave advice and help which is sometimes difficult to obtain in the home. Most important of all was the assistance teachers gave the students in their fight for adulthood. They instructed, counseled, and supervised from 8:00 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. After the final bell rang, there were principals meetings or depart- ment meetings to attend. Many were avid rooters at the school's sports events. Yet, they found time to organize and direct 33 clubs, and to attend the local universities.
