Memorial BILLY HOGG A member of the student body of Tempe Union High School, Billy Hogg proved his ability as a superior athlete, but to his school- mates far greater was his everyday good sportsmanship. We will not soon forget Billy’s good humor, constant helpful- ness, and spirit of fair play. He had a great capacity for friendship—that’s why young and old; in school or community life; everyone knew and enjoyed Billy’s companionship. He is still our friend and for his contribution to Tempe Union High School we dedicate this page to Billy Hogg.

Union High School. His untiring devotion as a teacher, sponsor of the annual, and as a friend will always be cherished and remembered by those of us who knew him best. When Mr. Weary came here in 1946 he taught general mathematics and civics, but by 1950 he was teaching only geometry and general business, both of which he enjoyed very much. In 1949 he was appointed sponsor of the annual and continued to serve faithfully un til 1953. Besides being sponsor of the annual he was also the photographer for several years. He gave up much of his free time to develop and print pictures to meet deadlines. In the remainder of his free time and during the summer months he was a partner with his brother in the contracting business. In so far as anyone could, Mr. Weary emulated the Teacher. He was devout and had definite convictions, which he never compromised. He lived for an ideal and that ideal was teaching. He took infinite pains with his stu- dents and their work, such as filing the work of every one of his students in separate folders. All that he did was never recognized by a great majority of his students and he was never paid for all the extra work he did. His record of service exceeds any compensation. We are reminded of Longfellow’s words: Through long days of labor And nights devoid of ease, Still heard in his soul the music Of wonderful melodies. These wonderful melodies continue as the inspiration of those who dedicate this an- nual to Mr. Weary, teacher and friend.
