X Jane Hunter - 1 i Mirthful Mathematics That William Carey possesses an endless supply of jokes is known to most who attend D.H.S., especially mathematicians. Math is Bill's specialty. Beginning algebra students are often puzzled about equations, factors, and unknowns but Bill soon has them on the right path. Sessions are often held at the board to clear away the mist surrounding some problem. His three algebra classes may disagree sometimes on algebra but they all agree that the parties held in 302 quite excell all others in both quality and quantity of food. The Seniors also are in for some board work and some parties in their solid geometry class. They change horses in the middle of the year, saddling up for a ride with college algebra. lt's quite puzzling and complicated but with Mr. Carey in the reins it's soon as plain as day C'?t to us. Mr. Carey's afternoons are spent in room 200 working on the veterans program. The young woman in the ofhce of 200 is Mrs. Helen Leich, secretary to Mr. Carey. Sixth hour period finds Mr. Carey taking time to govern S.H. for an hour. ln addition to these duties Mr. Carey helps in advising the H49-ers . Figure Finders The fair haired Senorita who occupies 3'l0 is Jane Hunter. Miss Hunter became a member of our faculty this year. Friendly grins and hi's are her trademark, greeting us as we pass by or enter her domain. Daily rendezvous are kept with mathematicians and Spanish students. Among her mathe- maticians we find algebra, geometry, and trigonometry devotees. The algebra-ists are mostly concerned with equations, unknowns, and factors, fmentioning a few of the problems coped withj. Studying theorems we learn the whys and whatfores of certain phases of plane geometry. Fifth hour 310 settles down to a session which deals with logarithyms, sines, cosines, etc. These terms are part of the fundamentals of trig. Miss Hunter steps into the shoes of Mrs. Milvenan's as teacher of Espanol. A class each of first and second year Spanish constitute this part of her curriculum. Adding to her duties is that of Frosh advisor. Miss Hunter is a staunch supporter of sports, attending G.A.A. regularly. She's always in there rootin' for the home team at our basketball and football games. Bashful Biologist . . .and what do we have here? A glimpse into room 306 reveals a museum of live and stuffed animals. Parakeets, cardinals or our delightful furrey friends fmicei may be heard adding their noise to the classroom. The keeper of this gate is Roger Norden whose delightful wit will take the lull out of any classroom. Biology and conservation are his specialty. Fish, frogs, and earthworms are dissected by the biologists with Mr. Norden standing by. lt's much easier and interesting to learn the organs of these animals and how they function when they're actually seen. Visual education via movies are important parts of both biology and conservation classes. Norden and his students often change their residence to permit other classes to use the movie apparatus available in 306. The finer points of figuring
