ic.. fy MRS. MARY CULLER The head of our commercial department is Mrs. Culler who attended Office Training School at Columbus in 1923-1924, Ohio State University in 1925, and Extension Division of Ohio University in 1943. Besides her regular duties, Mrs.Culler is Spoondrift advisor and gives unsparingly of her time and energy in working toward the success of this publication. MR. PAUL DAVIS Mr. Davis, our Senior class advisor, is one of the most popular members of the faculty. Be- sides his science and mathematics classes he also is advisor of the Hixonian which is a big job for one 'man but Mr. Davis certainly is equal to any task. He is always willing-to help us make our activities a success--you have viewed the results! He attended college at Huntington, 1922-1926 and the University of Michigan in 1932 where he re- ceived his B.S. degree. MISS VESTHER HOWENSTINE Without Miss Howenstine many of us would have gone hungry--and I do mean hungry! Through her supervision we had warm, nourishing lunches at the cafeteria. She was also in charge of all the Home Economics classes. She received her B.S. degree at Ohio State University in 1923, and attended Chicago University in 1925-1928 and Ohio State again in 1941.

Ult- Q' f acu fy Mn. o. c. RoDocKER We must have mathematics. The importance of 'math' in modern life cannot be underestimated. It is of prime importance and the teacher who handles this department is none other than Mr . Rodocker. He received his A.B. degree at Lima College and has been doing a splendid job here for many years. Mr. Rodocker will always be associated with all our happy memories of old H.H.S. MISS BERENICE SAUERS Miss Berenice Sauers, who has always been a ready friend, as well as a very efficient teacher, will never be forgotten by us Seniors. Under Miss Sauers we were given our first dose of U.S. Civics and our Eighth Grade Scholarship Test. Miss Sauers received her educationfromOhioUniversity, Miami University, Tri-State College, and received her B.S. in Education from Defiance College. MR. CARL ZIMMERMAN Music makes the world just a little bit nicer to live in. H.H.S. is very fortunate in having such an excellent music department and such an able director as Mr. Zimmerman. Mr. Zimmerman, indeed a busy man, devotes his efforts to the training of our band, chorus, and various instru- mental groups. He received his B.S. degree at Wooster College 1919-1933 and attended Kent State University 1936-1937, and American Institute of Music at New York.
