,Q gp . Dedication Ellsworth Mitick Mr. Mitick, a former North High student, came to South in 1949 after teaching for several years in Wray and Wheatridge, Colorado. He received his B.A. degree at the University of Colorado in 1937 and his M.A. in 1947 at the University of Denver. Throughout his years of teaching, Mr. Mitick has received many high honors. ln 1956 he was selected as an exchange teacher to England. Under a John Hay Fellowship Award he attended Williams Col- lege, and later represented the National Council for the Teachers of English at the Seventh National Conference for UNESCO. He has been repeatedly recognized in the state for the outstanding perform- ances of his students in discussion and debate. This ability skillfully guides and enriches the interests of those in the Debate Club at South. ln addition to his exchange trip to England, Mr. Mitick has traveled to Europe several times. Using this wealth of cultural background in his European History classes, he greatly enlivens the textbook material with personal experiences in foreign coun- tries. Amazingly, he possesses a tremendous knowl- edge in the field of English as well as in history. In the English department he is among those few who teach the accelerated classes. For your high capabilities and achievements, for your continual devotion to the teaching profession, for your generosity in giving of your own time to help others, and for your many valued contribu- tions to South, we dedicate to you, Mr. Mitick, the 1963 JOHNNY REB.
