Many double as class sponsors, club sponsors, athletic coaches, or yearbook advisors. Our teachers were more than educators. We students dis- covered that they were warm individuals with an amaz- ing sense of humor, enduring patience, and definite per- sonalities. With one common characteristic, dedication to the teaching profession, their greatest satisfaction came in bringing the subjects they loved to life for us, the students. MR. JOE E.

Qeofcafzon MR. RICHARD C. TI-IORNE He walks his domain with a football player's swagger, and gives each of his subjects a genuine smile from a heartful of love. To an outsider or a new freshman, he might seem a stern mon- arch ruling his football team with an iron hand, but to know him, especially the football players, is to love the golden guy. He has led Iuka High in two of its greatest foot- ball seasons - loyal and proud of his team and school, yet down-to-earth and fun-loving. There have been many times when our team has needed help and guidance. It is during these times that they find they can depend on the wise counsel of Coach Thorne, who has taught them good citizenship, respect, honor, and most of all sportsmanship. To you, Mr. Richard C. Thorne, we, the Edi- torial and Business Staffs dedicate the 1961-62 CHIEFTAIN. We express our deep gratitude for the guidance and support you have so unselfishly given both our school and our team. jgehmzg gegzhaffge 122012 BRUCE and NAN NELL T HORN E

I 1 sw J W fa Qasa- We Although at first confused by bewildering scientific terms, sinister-looking instruments, and complicated calculations, science students soon overcame the con- fusion for a better understanding of this new world. In general science, students established a basic founda- tion by becoming acquainted with scientific apparatus and terminology. The more specialized Biology classes spent a semester in botany studying algae, fungi, mono- cots, diocots, and spermatophytesg in Zoology they tackled one-celled animals, mollusks, amphibians, and finally vertebrates. Chemistry and senior science students experimented in the laboratory with its shelve of odd-shaped bottles, strange smells, and brilliant colors. For physics stu- dents, it was necessary to learn the principles under- lying pulleys, rotating wheels, levers, and complex machines. When they visited the Tennessee Pulp and Paper Co. at Counce, they saw these principles put to practical use. JAMES WRIGHT, HARMON MCGILL, and RONALD HAMM D .
