Mr. Rodgers, affectionately called the 'Mr. Chips of Central, is the typical devoted schoolmaster. His favorite saying is: Stop your chatter. An estimated 5,000 students have sat in his classes since he came here . . . The favorite pastime of Mr. Buresh is reading: and for a man about the world, he says he enjoyed Quebec, Canada the most . . . Residing on the north side, Miss Nutter, department chairman, has traveled a distance more than twice around the world in coming to and from school. In spite of this, or maybe because of it, she has confided that she wants to visit every state in the Union. . . . Like many other teachers, Miss Nickerson thinks Lake Louise in the Canadian Rockies is the most beautiful place she has ever seen. Almost every week-end she visits her home at Elk River. During the summer, she spends much of her time tending her garden there. Above: Mr. Anthony Buresh — Geometry. Miss Eloanor Nickerson—Geometry, Advanced Algebra, and Trigonometry. Miss Hannah Nutter- Geometry and Algebra. Department Chairman. NEW ADDRESSES . Because of the changes in enrollment, personnel, and courses, some of our instructors have taught new subjects. Mr. Mulligan instructed in United States history; Mrs. Drechsler, in world history; Miss Liskey, in Spanish; Mr. Buresh, in trigonometry; Mr. Rodgers, in refresher mathematics; Mr. Hepp, in glider construction; Mr. Lander, in wood turning; Miss Wayne, in first aid; and Mr. Schadegg, in physics and aviation science. Since every student likes to know more about his teachers, the faculty editors present faculty sketches, not as a literary masterpiece, but as something different. ASSESSORS Mr. Walter Rodgers—Advanced Algebra. Solid Geometry, and Refresher Mathematics. 8
