LEADERS OF TOMGRROW A first-class school district needs a first-class school, which needs a Hrst-class administration, which needs a first-class faculty, which needs a first-class student body, which needs a first-class Associ- ated Student Body council. The students of Bellevue High School have all these, right down to the council, with President Dennis Hebner heading the council, Larry Sweeney as vice president, Jan Richardson a capable secretary, and our unerring treasurer, Don Durr. Through these people Bellevue High's student body is able to operate rapidly and smoothly. All student activities from those ot the smallest organizations to those of Girls' Club and Boys' Club, are influenced by these otticers and the council over which they preside. The result is a better and more productive lite for all. Above: left to right: Dennis Hebner, Don Durr, Mr. Peters, Larry Sweeney, Ja-n Richardson.

BELLE ,f 1 4 VIII: ul X X -ff Mrs. Helen Stocker Returning to Bellevue, after acquiring her MRS degree and a degree in home eco- nomics, Mrs. Stocker, formerly Miss Rockey, teaches sophomore and advanced cook- ing classes. In after-school hours, the new Mrs. Stocker can be seen working at her new hobby, gardening, inspired by a new house. Mrs. Virginia Wieder Mrs. Wieder, in her fourth year at Bellevue, is kept very busy with the varied pro- gram of teaching sophomore English, assisting in the attendance office, supervising the clinic and advising the Girls' Club. In her outdoor time, she enioys horsebacl riding, in the pleasant company of her own horse. By the fireside, she dreams c travel abroad. Mr. Frank Svoboda Hustle, hustle . . . and Don't get your dobber down! are the famous exclama- tions of Mr, Svoboda, football coach. This rugged guy also risks his life in driver's training. After five years as coach at Bellevue Junior High, he has come to us all fired up to work, work, work for an undefeated football season. Let's dream and work with himl Mr. Glen O. Young The rat-tat-tat-ing of a typewriter and the thundering beat of a basketball being dribbled down the floor are sounds very familiar to Mr. Glen Young, Bellevue typ- ing instructor and varsity basketball coach. When asked, Vv'hat are you known for by the students? Coach Young replied with a chuckle, My happy disposition and pleasant smile. Mr. John N. Terrey To be what I am, expounds senior English and life-adiustment teacher, Mr. Terrey, is my ambitionI A real live Democrat, he is very popular with his students as he pauses briefly from the Canterbury Tales to tell a shaggy dog story or give advice to the Wolverine Guard. He complains, The only trouble with life is it's so daily. Mrs. Ethel M. Diamond Secretary to Mr. Heidenreich Mr. Frederick Whitner Wasting time? Stalling until the bell rings? Not in Mr. Whitner's geometry classesl Anyone who has had this sturdy little army-sergeant-type knows that these are his pet peeves. When he is not busy tending his geometry classes, you will find him keeping track of the football and basketball statistics, bowling, golfing, or wise- cracking. Mrs. Alice L. MacDonald Secretary Mr. William L. Wicker Mr. Wicker, who has taught at Bellevue for three years, hopes to have the best music department possible. He is trying to reach his goal by his inspired teaching of band, choir, chorus, dance band and music theory. Even though he has a master's degree, Mr. Wicker says he is being educated more and more each day by his three- year-old son. Mrs. Marian Sulenes Secretary 16 ,,
