Mr. John Lawery provided the seniors and the juniors with advice and guidance on their plans beyond high school. This was his second year on the counseling staff at King- man High School. He was also basketball coach this year. Mrs. Wanda Hull, to whom this yearbook is dedicated, acted as advisor to the juniors and the seniors. As head of the Home Economics department, she administered the Betty Crocker Future Homemaker of America test to senior girls and sponsored FlIA. Mr. Lawrey keeps busy as both counselor and basketball coach. Mr. Conrath will be missed by the students very much next year. Mr. Ken Conrath is a business teacher in addition to be- ing sophomore and freshman counselor. He plans to spend next year doing research and planning for a vocational skills center that will soon be built in Kingman. Mr. Jarvis Cobe, who is also a counselor for the fresh- men and sophomores, has served in the Kingman schools for a number of years. He served as principal at Palo Christe Grammar School, and in addition to being counselor, Mr. Cobe acts as Assistant Principal at KHS.

Mr. Jay B. McCommon has just completed his second year at Kingman High School. As Assistant Principal lie was in charge of student activities such as those concerning athletics and attendance. A graduate of the University of Western New Mexico, he came to Kingman from Tucson. When he isn’t worrying about students who feel that it is their duty to make trouble with the faculty, wear illegal clothes to class, or not to attend class at all, he relaxes by going fishing or boating. Mr. Williams has been principal at Kingman High School for ten years. Before he took the responsibility of becoming principal, Mr. Williams acted as assistant principal for two years and also did some coaching and teaching of Social Science courses. He is a graduate of Northern Arizona Uni- versity where he received both his Bachelor of Science and Masters Degree. Mrs. Margaret M. Benson, who has been at KHS for seven years, is Mr. Williams secretary. Students and teachers with problems often seek her out because she has a way of solving them. The Students’ Best Friends Administrators aren’t all bad -and they don’t always frown either. Here Mr. Wallace, Mr. McCommon, Mr. Cobc, and Mr. Lovell arc caught in a typical moment of relaxation. Possibly Mr. Lovell is telling a joke; more likely, however, he is trying to get all present to agree to a Barbershop Quartet.

English Departmenl Under Mrs. Logston’s Miss Harriss has taught in the English Department for ten years. Mrs. Faye Logsdon has taught senior English in King- man for so many years that she has lost track of them. Her spare time is occupied by the National Honor Society, plan- ning curriculum for the English Department, reading, and listening to good music. Miss Joanne Harriss, another veteran of the toils of in- structing at KHS, tackled Speech, junior and senior Eng- lish this year. During halftime she engaged in bridge, bowl- ing, and reading (just to stay primed). Miss Sherry Herman received her Masters Degree from ASU and has just completed her first year teaching senior English. Mrs. Logsdon is widely known for her ability to teach English. A graduate of NAU where she majored in En- glish Education and minored in Guidance, the thought that one must work in order to learn has remained with her since college days. This principle is applied to the students in her classes. Besides English, Miss Herman taught Communications and Journal- ism. 18
