Clothier came to Duncan in 1931. J.H. Bowman began his work as fifth grade teacher in I960, and at the high school in 1966. Mr. Bowman, as counselor, listened to problems, taught American government and driver training, and coaxed the seniors along, persuading them to apply for college admis- sion and scholarships. He drove buses to many out-of-town games and other events. Mr. Clothier also listened to problems, coaxed, comforted, and admonished. Few students have not been in his classes in typing or shorthand or bookkeeping, or on his tennis or volleyball teams. His teams are state-famous for honors won; his graduates are holding fine positions in the business world. Both teachers are active in Duncan com- munity life, Mr. Bowman as mayor since 1961, Mr. Clothier as city clerk since 1951. Mr. Bowman reviews chapter with M.Provencio, J. Garcia.

English, history study Promoted by books, overhead projector In English and business theory classes, Mr. Merrell used books and workbooks; in English II, wide reading was in style, with many in- teresting paperbacks available, and students used the library for supplementary reading. Mr. Montoya, with four history classes, found the overhead projector-lecture method useful. Journalism, his fifth period class, was a laboratory in interviewing, writing, typing, and duplicator operation. Mr. Merrell came to Duncan High in 1967. Mr. Montoya, a DHS graduate of 1965, and a bachelor of arts from Northern Arizona Uni- versity, returned to Duncan in 1969 with his wife Esther, also a DHS graduate, and daughter Yolanda. In February, 1970, Yolanda's sister Anna Marie arrived. 24
