Katherine Strunk Home Economics Rhon Rittenhouse Commercial fi Each year some faculty members are given a slight rest and students, a change of teachers when college students desir- ing to become teachers practice in F. H. S. classes. Miss Katherine Strunk taught at our high school in Miss Marilyn Bowers' Home Ec. classes to practice what she had been taught in college. Mr. Rhon Rittenhouse worked in Mr. Ted Harbit's commercial classes during his stay here . Seq STLIDE T TEACHERS PRACTICE Gene Smith English I Mr. Gene Smith who is a former student of F.H.S. himself returned in the role of a teacher to practice in Mr. Sterrett Nash's freshman English class. It is generally felt that regular students and teachers profit as much as the student teachers under this program. U HERS' CLUB WORKS AT GAMES The Ushers' Club under the sponsor ship of Mr. David Bartlow provided the supervision needed at ball- games. By holding up the ropes at half time, passing out programs, clean- ing up spilled popcorn, etc., the - . t boys were kept busy at the home basketball games. The ushers no , doubt stood out among the best in their devotion to public service. Members of the club are Dave Lazenby, Dave Shetterly, Jim Cloud, Eddie Foley, Larry Litsey, John Miller, Dan Buchner, and Don Thomas. in 25 AT F.H. .
