Methought I heard a voice cry, 'Sleep no more McBeth has murdered sleep g'- were familiar cries as students gallantly struggled to please their English teachers or should we say, pass English! Teachers valiantly answer questions in an effort to help students become well trained Mrs. Emery and Mr. Ragland discuss schemes for Senior English tests.

Besides being a fine eighth grade teacher he instructs Juniors and Sen- iors in American History and is always interested only in the good of our school. He is a very jolly teacher and is always cracking a joke and is also very glad to give you guidance. Mrs. Campbell and Miss King are seen as usual, discussing the many problems of the business de- partment and Miss King's cheer- leaders and Mrs. Campbell's an- nual. The Senior Class and the annual staff would at this time like to give special recognition to Mrs. Mary Campbell, our dear and devoted worker and Sponsor. Any where you go you can always see Mrs. Campbell busy at something. This couldn't be an annual without her constant guidance and pushing and some of us would probably never get to college. We hold a great deal of respect and admiration for Mrs. Campbell and hope she believes us even though at times it is hard. --I

The most important thing in our world today as far as knowledge is concerned is science. Almost every device used in our homes, schools, recreation, or defense net- work are contributions of our advanced scien- tific knowledge. That is why we value our teach- his. ers Mr. Milam, Mr. Kirby, Mr. Shea, and Mrs. Lancaster so highly. With their extensive knowl- edge in the fields of Biology, Chemistry, General Science, and Physics we the students have reaped great dividends. We can enter this scientific world with the confidence that we know what it is about and how we can further its progress. In today's modern, advanced mode of living a sound foundation in the social sciences are need- ed. In order to' attain what we desire from life a firm knowledge of our world and our place in it are invaluable. Mr. Horace Bean and Mrs. Marion Gammel, teachers in the course of Soci- ology offered mainly to Seniors, help students in the study of man and his relation to others. Mr. Bean lectures to his American History class. History, another of our worthwhile and infor- mative courses, taught by Mr. Bean, provides the solid basis needed by all who hope to prove good citizens. Along the aid of student teachers such as Miss Akin, assistant to Mrs. Gammel, we gained the ability to be well-informed, inter- ested, and active citizens in our great democracy. Mrs. Gammel reads a section of the Sociology book to s. her clas Mr. Milam shows us a friend of H
