Thoroughly Human Responsibilities do not inhibit teachers. They have been known to play basketball, wear bluejeans, mow lawns, and laugh convulsively. They have been seen on the pillory, in sweatshirts, on skis, and at football games. Teachers make mistakes fprivatelyj, tell jokes Crepeatedlyl, and have sayings Cunfortunatelyj. They are human and enjoy their humanness. It cleanses them and recharges them. A teacher who is always a teacher lives a hard life. The best teachers experience, and then transmit this experience to their students. John E. Rich. Physics, Honor Society, Science Club, JETS, shows his Physics students how he posed for Mt. Rushmore. Adam B. Radomski, OSFS, French, Sacristans, Intramurals, Track, passes on his knowledge of the French language. In Drama Class Thomas J.

Usually Unsung Beside the teachers stand a few people who possess the technical skill to keep the machine of the school running smoothly. They must feed hundreds of mouths. They must type innumerable letters. They sweep, and dust, and throw away, and save. They can be labeled as the staff, but they are definite, necessary, distinct personalities to those they serve in the school. They are usually unsung, possibly because few can sing their song. Parents of chronic absentees soon learn to recognize the voice of Mrs. Evelyn Snell, Principal's Secretary. Mrs. Ann M. Finnegan, Guidance Secretary, smiles with relief as she finishes the year's final college transcript. Mrs. M. Helen Scull, Treasurer's Secretary, diligently performs her secretarial duties in the office. aww-K' ' Mrs. Mary P.
