Faculty Six new faculty members came to Alcester High School this year. They were Mr. Peterson, who was engaged to teach physical science, physics, Algebra I, and general math, Mr. Quick, who taught agriculture and agriculture shop, Mrs. Goldammer, who became head librarian and taught eighth grade English, and English II, Mr. Joachim, who filled the post of B-team basketball coach, and taught English I, III, and IV; Mr. Carlson, who was responsible for art, grades 1-12, and Mr. Wurtz, who was superintendent. These new teachers, and the ones who remained from the preceding year were the ones who were responsible for guiding the students in their search for knowledge. But, this was one small part of a vast total work load. They served as class and special group advisors, maintained discipline through such methods as detention slips and desk patrol. They also kept track of students in study hall, and supervised the stu- dents on long trips. These additional things are the things that add difficulty as well as variety to the teaching profession.

Mr. Robert Carlson-Art I, Art II, Grade School Art. Mrs. Virginia Ericson-Home Economics. 6

Clubs Receive Representation on Council Alcester’s Student Council held irregular meetings throughout the year to discuss the schools activities, school policy, and troubles. New members were added to the Student Council this year: from German Club, A-Club, FFA, FHA, and Pep Club. Members were chosen from each of these groups and from each class. The council consisted of seven seniors, four ju- niors, three sophomores, and two freshmen. Mr. Zingler also added his skill to the council, as an advisor. Student Body President, Larry Hebert and a senior member, Joe Gubbrud, attended a Seminar at Yankton on Area Student Councils to get a few new ideas. Student Council was in charge of planning the Christ- mas party, for which they selected a movie. They, also, were in charge of plans for Homecoming, Sweetheart, and by selecting bands, making refreshments, and decorating the gym. Other activities were selecting attendants from the first and second grade for Homecoming Coronation, organizing a noon lunch, and Grub Day. 8 1st row sitting-Jane Eiiers.
