Of the many examples of versatility and leadership among Bentley's fac- ulty, we like to think that Mr. Charles Zoet is typical. Not only is he recog- nized as an excellent mathematics teacher, but he also has the admir- ation and respect of his students and fellow teachers as a counselor and, during the spring months, as reserve baseball coach. For several years he has actively participated in the LEA, of which he is the immediate past president. He is also active in civic aFfairs in his home town, a neighbor- ing community. Mr. Zoet has boundless enthusiasm for his classes and is always ready to help his students. With Mike Bratherton, left, he pon- ders u solution to a problem. He assists another of his seniors, Bill Armour, right. Together with Mr. Tom Hartsig, Mr. Zoet spon- sors the Math Club for all students in school who are interested in delving into mathema- tics mysteries o little deeper than classroom time permits.

Highly ranked in the flrst round of the National Merit scholarship examination were Lee Deschamps, Donna Palonen, Martha Weaver, Marilyn Pomroy, and Leslie Anders, shown here receiving Letters of Commendation from Dr. Friedrichs. With the academic program the heart of the school, studying is naturally the most important activity. It is carried on in classrooms, study halls, on buses, on hall duty, at home, and, preferably, in the library, where conditions are particularly pleasant.

V-.wp M.,7 Student Council's good citizenship oath was administered Bratherton, Kathy Memmer, Deanna Tarbet, and Jim to the entire student body, at an outdoor assembly in Carmichael.

Left to honors in those uniforms, while Deanna and Kathy com- right are Mr. Webster, sponsor, and officers Mike pleted their second season as varsity cheerleaders. L mp mdlg MM- rmwfwzma Those visitors from outer space who say, Take me to your leader, are sure to be escorted to Bentley, where leadership is a common characteristic of students, fac- ulty, and administration. Such visitors as Juan Gomez, ot Bogota, Columbia, can vouch for that. Take Jim Carmichael-Student Council president, all- star football and basketball player, courteous, intelli- gent AND handsome Bentley representative. Take versatile Mr. Charles Zoet-math teacher, coun- selor, coach, tireless committee worker, past LEA presi- dent, member ot the Board of Education in his home- town, a neighboring community. Take Dr. Friedrichs-new principal who came to know everyone well and happily in so short a time. Or Mr. Amerman, calm, considerate, courteous in all situations. Multiply these typical Bentleyites several hundred times, with minor variations. The result is a rate of versatility and leadership ability hard to equal. Dr. Donald Friedrichs and Bentley students officially met during the first assembly of the year. Fine fall weather permitted this to take place at the stadium and to double as a pep assembly. -new-viii.
