Principal Do you know how many legs a spider has, M or how many bones there are in the human body? If not, why don't you ask Mr. W. J. Meyer, principal of our high school, who is also the teacher of Science and Mathematics. Mr. Meyer has been signing excuses for the students of our high school for the past four- teen years and has been the superintendent of our school system for the last five years. As sponsor of the Camera Club, which is in its second year of existence, Mr. Meyer has head- ed most of the picture taking for this publication of THE PROSPECTOR. Some of the-numerous tasks that Mr. Meyer does for our school is keeping time at our games, helping someone fix a broken camera, trying to open a locked locker with a master key or restring a battered tennis racket. As principal of our school, Mr. Meyer has served us in every way possible and all are greatly indebted to him. 7

Board of Education When you happen to come to the high school on a Tuesday or some other week night you may see five serious people seated around a table in the office having a dis- cussion on whether or not to appropriate money for repairs in the lecture room or to re-seed the football field. At the meeting you will see Mr. S. T. Lindly at the head of the table. He has ser- ved our board for the past six years, At the right of Mr. Lindly perhaps the clerk, Mrs. James Giacoma will be sitting looking up records and so forth. The newest member of the board may be voicing his opinion on the subject. Mr. Harry Huber is the one who was elected to serve on the board at the last election. Mr. M. R. Kellar, who has served for the past ten years may have some very sound ideas on the discussion since he is one of the older members. Perhaps if the discussion is not closed by now, Mr. R. W. Steffen may have some other idea which all the others had forgotten about until he brought it up. This board has served our high school very successfully for the past year and we are very proud to have this short visit with them at one of their meetings. Seated from left to right are: Member. R. W. Steffen: Member, M. R. Kellarp President, S. T. Lindly: Member, Harry Huber: Clerk, Mrs. James Gilcoml. 6

F A C U L T Y -- w-- f ---f- --- --- ' v-------f w+w--.ff.- - -K-zulu-.H .f-sn... .W 7.-Un.-. , A The Class of '50 wishes to present to you a glimpse of our teachers as we see them, by working and studying with them. Mr. W. J. Meyer heads the faculty, as principal. He is the brave man who takes it upon himself to turn out a. class of pupils every year who are capable drivers besides be- ing members of the Biology Class that he teaches. The prominent play director, Miss A. B. Moralis, is usually found trying to find a script or making the leading lady learn her part. Miss Moralis sees to it that under- classmen learn the fundamentals of the English and Spanish languages. Miss Ruth Schaffer is the one you see to check out a book or to get help on how to set up a dummy page for a school publication. She teaches subjects in Social Science, English, and Journalism. Mr. H. G. Daniels, who teaches Science and Math, oversees the students while they are trying to rnake something like Chlorine gas in the Chemistry Laboratory. Heading the school cafeteria and also teaching Home Economics and Girls' Athletics is Mrs. Martha Goodell, who helps the first year students cook delicious meals. Mr. Ben Elliot, a newcomer to the school, heads our Music Department. He is often found trying to help some poor helpless student to get a horn to work or to get her voice in shape for a performance. If you need a stencil cut or tickets made for a show, the person who will help you is Mr. E. M. Webb who is head of the Commercial Department. Last but certainly not least, is our coach, Mr. John Wyatt, who has led our football, basketball, and baseball teams in this very successful year. Mr. Wyatt is also in charge of the Industrial Arts Department which turns out the pretty furniture. This completes a short summary of our faculty and you can see that our past years have been successful because of the excellent advice and supervision given by these people. .ep-t H' H' NP sig 'xi' 8
