MR. ROBERT BAKER That man who stands at his door between classes stopping dash runners on the second floor, is Mr. Robert Baker. Formerly the junior high math teacher, Mr. Baker was moved up- stairs when Mr. WVebb left, as the physics and general science teacher. He now teach- es pre-flight aeronautics and pre-induction along with these original subjects and con- sequently hasn't much spare time. Mr. Baker is also head of the Visual Education Club, Hi-Y advisor, and the Honor Society Trea- surer. He was reared in Bryan, Ohio, and re- ceived his B.S. degree at Ohio Northern. His experiences While traveling with the university choir are very plentiful and amus- ing. Mr. Baker is especially proud of his fine collection of airplane models and says that the freshmen are planning to raise every- thing from tropical fish to white mice in his room. And Mr. Baker says that he's busy now!

MISS MARGARET O'DWYER Miss Margaret O'Dwyer, Maumee High's new history teacher, was born in Toledo. She attended Notre Dame Academy, was grad- uated from De Sales and received her Mas- ter's Degree from the Catholic University of America. Miss O'Dwyer teaches eighth grade his- tory, world history and American history. She always looks worn out after the eighth grade classes, but her appearance after a sessicn with the juniors is almost indescrib- able- ea look of sort of hopeless resignation. The sophomores in World history made quite a few maps this year, as well as a very colorful time chart to hang on the wall. Miss O'Dwyer is also the very competent advisor of the Student Court. 4K MR. IACK O'NEILL Mr. O'Neill, principal, teachers the two senior American Problems classes. In these classes, the affairs of the United States are discussed and its problems are solved . . . sometimes! More often, violent arguments occur and each member of the class leaves with the opinion he held when he came. Regardless of the many seemingly futile arguments, the class did accomplish at least one worth while thing--it taught its members to think before they spoke. After semester each member of the class was obliged to speak for at least half a period concerning some phase of American life. Both listening to and delivering these talks was an ordeal, but Mr. O'Neill felt the ordeal profitable.

Even though Maumee boasts of the best equipment in these parts, Mr. Lawrence isn't satisfied. He wants a microtome for the biology lab. We hope you get it, Mr. Law- rence. it Wilt' ss..
