FACULTY ENJoYs HOPTY'S Arsmcs Mr. Baird conducted interesting chemistry, physics and general science classes. After school he could be found with his main activity interest, the camera club. One of his principle ambitions was to edit a book of his many jokes. Although quite a few Avalon boys feigned sickness for a glimpse of Mrs. Leonard, their ills soon disappeared at the sight of her. Not only a capable nurse, but also she showed versatility by sponsoring a successful senior YfTeen club. A new member of our faculty, Mr. Greig brought out the band in full splendor for the first football game. Thanks to him, unknown musical talent was discovered at the Christmas chorus concert, thereby arousing keen interest in the spring concert. In july Miss Miller capably took over her ofhce duties as Mr. Evans' secretary. Although she was forever rushed, she was never without a smile and would lend a sympathetic ear to the woe of a distressed student. This was the Avalon high school faculty, every one a very human understanding person. And though the Hopty Car will not be here next year, the faculty will be here for years to come helping students along the road to success. 16

IG INTO THE STUDENTS With the help of Miss Jones' expert hands, junior and senior girls alike produced well tailored clothes. She also taught cooking to the feminine members of the junior high. Exceedingly popular was her homefmaking club. Another new member of the Avalon faculty, Miss Hood opened an intricate world to tenth graders with her biology classes. English was her second subject. At the end of the first semester, Mr. Groves arrived to relieve Miss Hood. Undaunted by the stress and strain of A.H.S., he took over the biology, general science and English classes. BETTY L.
