Besides, such omission affords opportunity for flexibility and variety. After all, the Yearbook is intended to portray the activity side of school life and organization. This it does exceptionally well, covering as it does student clubs and organization all athletic teams and programs, extra-curricular music, R.O.T.C., home rooms, soci affairs, and many others. No pupil is without an opportunity to be represented by pt graph in the annual. All members of the staff, whether teachers or clerks or mainter personnel. Your favorite teacher, your favorite elevator operator, both are there. Yi will in later years spend idle moments in retrospect as you thumb through the pages And it is fitting, therefore, that we pay tribute to the Yearbook staff for their diligf effort to make this book one of the outstanding in a long series. pw Vernon Daniels Louis E .

RETIREMENTS Otto K. Rose was born near Scranton, Pennsylvania and moved to Detroit with his parents while in high school. During his teen-age years, he served an apprenticeship for the Commercial Electric Supply Company of Detroit where, fortunately for himself and for Cass Technical High School, he obtained the practical training that was to shape his career. He entered Cass as a pupil and graduated in June, 1917. Shortly thereafter the Army called him into service After basic training, his talent in the field of electricity brought him an assignment which culminated in his being made a Master Sergeant, in charge of all the electrical equipment, installation and maintenance at Camp Custer. Cass Technical High School was fully aware of the talents that this graduate had shown and so he was invited to consider a return to his alma mater as a teacher. Meantime he had entered Wayne University. Otto Rose deservedly holds the esteem of his fellow teachers and of his principals. He is beloved by his many pupils and by the many graduates upon whose life he exerted an influence. The Electrical Department as it exists in Cass today bears the imprint of his loving care and of his forceful personality. X.-' - Fred J. Fricke retires from the Detroit Public School system in June, 1954, after forty-three years of teach- ing service, thirty-six of which were spent at Cass Technical High School. A genuine scholar, he spent many years in graduate study at such institutions as Massachusetts Institute of Technology, University of Michigan, University of Chicago, Columbia. His interests lay in the field of mathematics. Meantime, he had already done some teaching. After coming to Detroit he found the time and opportunity to satisfy another maior interest and ambition, namely, the secrets of machinery. Accordingly, he spent many spare hours in the school machine shop and even in industrial shops. Thus it happened that his special talents found him ready to assume the leadership of the Mechanic Arts Curriculum in 1925. He has been head of the mechanic arts shops for twenty-nine years. Meticulously exact in details, he held his pupils to rigid standards of machine precision and accuracy. Yet with all his kindly and patient understanding elicited the full confidence of all with whom he came in contact. Cass loses a master teacher, a scholar, a great friend. Miss Helen Fulton, girl's gymnastic teacher, came to Cass in the fall of 193C. After retirement she plans to spend her time in Richman, Virginia, where she has a home. Miss Fulton is a graduate of University of Cincinnati. She received her Masters degree from Columbia University. A world wide traveler, Miss Fulton visited almost every part of the world. We, her friends at Cass hope she will be very happy in her new home in Virginia. Miss Ruth Yost, a biology teacher, who has been at Cass Technical High School since 1931 is retiring, but she will live on here at Cass in the memory of her many friends among both the student body and the faculty. During her teaching career with the Detroit public schools, Miss Yost taught not only biology but also chemistry, physics and mathematics. Miss Yost pursued scientific work at Oberlein College where she received her B.A. and at Columbia University where she received her M.A. in mathematics. However, Miss Yost's educational interests and accomplishments extend beyond the field of science into law. Miss Yost holds both a master's degree and a doctor's degree in law. During the past summers, Miss Yost has traveled extensively throughout the world. Upon retirement she has been invited to make her home with her sister's family in New Hampshire. She will also devote her time visiting her many nephews, nieces and other relatives. lt can be said that knowledge, sincerity and a genuine love of teaching were qualities which made Miss Yost an excellent guide for young people and a well-liked and respected person by those that really knew her. 8 we 'K
