There are struggles with math, Latin, and biology, but as The months go by, everyone becomes a real Murrayite. Suddenly it is September, 1951. More worldly now, The sophomores look about Tor class advisers, and They are Tortunate enough To get Miss Louise Peder- son and Mr. Howard Hathaway. An election results in Gilbert Larson becoming The class' tirst president. IT seems impossible, but iT is September again. Robert Gruber becomes The junior's president. This is a social and business year, tor money is needed tor the all-important Prom. Following The sponsoring ot Who is Ewald? ask James and John Broen, new seniors from Be- midii, Minnesota. Well, says Dan Hill, it started with The eighth grade class ot 1949- 50. They bought Ewald for titteen cents and brought him to school, but They carried Their play with the mascot too far. Miss Louise Pederson relieved the class ot Ewald, the lizard, and put it into The hands ot the office, where it stayed. Then, The class bribed the office with seventy-tour cents to re- turn Little Ewald. He was then given to Miss Pederson, to be kept until the class of '54 was to be graduated. Ewald has long since been ex- hibited in a glass frame, but Miss Pederson insists that he will be graduated just the same.

.4 i. just ask these teachers Left below, the world passes in review! Miss Grace Mackey, English instructor, holds a sweater that Miss Marion Gratz, librarian, purchased in Europe last sume mer. In the center is Mrs. Patricia Fritsche, interested in Mr. Howard Hathaway's discourse about his European tour. Both Miss Gratz and Mr. Hathaway have excellent pictures that tell the foreign story. Mrs. Fritsche is Murray's girls' physical education instructor, and Mr. Hathaway teaches Spanish and physics. It is a pleasant interlude, a free hour, and a cup of steaming coffee. Enioying this break in a busy day are Mrs. Ruth Eddy, social studies, Mrs. Louise Pederson, mathematics, Mr. Bernard Quinn, social studies, and Mrs. Lucille Smith, chemistry. Away from gym classes, social studies, and biology, these three coaches of track, basketball, and baseball, meet in the equipment room to look over the needs for the seasons. Mr. Robert Ritter seems to like the bat. Mr. Thomas Thompson, new to Murray this year, has developed a snappy gym team. Both Mr. George Rose and Mr. Ritter assist with football, as well as coaching in their respective fields. Below, Mrs. Winifred O'Dwyer, cafeteria manager, carves a turkey while Mrs. Vida Stiles, assistant, is giving a sample to Mr. Marvin House, Murray's chief custodian and best friend of both teachers and students. Mrs. O'Dwyer is new to Murray this year, while Mrs. Stiles is an old favorite with students, because of her art in making delicious cakes and pies. it Www . f. .... W9s,1,r,..,.,.L,x ,wx xy as . . ,.
