Helping a football player, Roger Knuep- pel to become as educated in grammar as DEDICATIC Eight years ago when Miss Ruth Cochran first came to Columbus High School, she was known as the new Teacher with the thermos bottle. Still carrying her thermos bottle, Miss Cochran is now a symbol of the fine qualities for which Columbs High School stands. To her, her work is her art, and her interest in and love of teaching English instills in her students the same intense interest in English, whether they be exhaust- ing themselves over grammar or transporting themselves to a different world via literature. A teacher in the dignity of the noblest sense, she has instructed us, encouraged us, and led us by example. We have learned much in her sparkling friendship.
