Scholastic Honors We were very proud of our HIGH RANKING GIRL and BOY. This honor was given to the senior boy and girl who had the highest grade average for all four high school years. In winning these awards, our students deserve much credit for their diligent work and cooperation. but could they have attained this goal without the helping hand of their teachers?? Mrs. Hess, our librarian, always went out of her way to help a student find material he needed. Her library was a pleasant place in which to study. Mrs. Pinkston, with unfailing good humor, helped in all problems pertaining to her classes and modern day life in general. Her teaching of tolerance and understanding made her pupils more able to live in harmony with their fellowmen. Mrs. Apple, al- ways sympathetic and understanding with all her duties, was never too busy to help a student to under- stand new problems or catch up on work. Mrs. Kane employed all devices and helps such as films, records and posters to aid us in understanding our work. These teachers, in addition to all the others, helped us to win. We are proud of Doris and Dale who achieved the highest honor our school had to offer. lfI5l'I'll I'II'iSS 'I.If'VdYld!l. Central State College, B.A. IOL' ANN lllXf1lfX', Sofia A-S, HAZEI.

No one worked harder nor helped out in so many activities of the school as Nlrs. Kirkman who encouraged her students to do grade work. She iudged who was worthy of the commercial award, which this year was won by Anne Freeman. Nliss Camp drilled us in the finer points of linglish and taught us to appreciate literature. As our dramatics director she caused us to love all activities connected with play production and spurred some on to become professionals. She chose the students worthy of being best thespians. Nlarland Rhodes was the boy chosen, and since two girls were equally good, Donna Sue Black and Nancy XY'adley shared honors as outstanding girl thespians.
