V1ARJORIE B. BARRON EDWARD L. CARTER JANE E. CATTERALL FLORENCE M. CRUICKSHANK RICHARD HERMANSON AGNES G. HICKMAN FREDERICK HOPPEN ETHEL V. JOY ★ ★ ★ FACULTY • Anyone who has been quizzed by the pedagogues of East Rockaway knows that they can answer, ask, and explain almost anything. If you are looking for a short cut to the answer to any query such as the number of students in East Rockaway, or the number of trees on the campus, we suggest you go directly tc Mr. Studwell. Everyone does eventually, anyway. However, if time is long, you may quizz members of the faculty individually and we'll wager, you will exit from the encounters, an erudite person. Surely, Mr. Lenz's explanations on how to obtain the maximum in shop results with the minimum of lost digits and broken tools, or Mr. Hermanson's explanations of the home life of the hydra should be sufficient to prove our statement. If these are not enough, we might mention Mr. Davison's often-doubted but quickly proved discussions of how high a ladder will reach on the side of a building if placed so far from, its base. There is no history book that will explain the movements of the Battle of Thermopylae more vividly than can Miss Catterall. Mr. Fordham is the acknowledged expert on explaining the technique of winning contests with hip- Choral Club. Mrs. Schroeder can explain the relations of the shades in the color wheel with amazing facility. Grandpa Snazzy may be famed for frying eggs, but Miss Marjorie Kane not only can fry them but can explain the why’s and wherefore's of food and domestic Mechanics in general. Still not convinced? How about Mr. Hoppen's explanation of elementary science that prepares the neophyte scientists for Mr. Hermanson's ants and plants? As for our business teachers. Miss Barron can explain quite clearly how not to decorate yourself with mimeograph ink 2
