Mr. Louis Cinko St. John Township Trustee Mr. Fred Jones Principal Mrs. Lela Howell Business Secretary School’s Hub Students needing passes to class, important visitors seeking directions, and college representatives flow into the general office in an ever-present stream daily. A great deal of cooperation is needed to make the central “brain” of the school run smoothly. Mr. Jones and Mr. Bibich can be seen consulting with their secretaries on correspond¬ ence matters, or with the school treasurer about finances. The counselors, too, depend on the efficient method used in the office to consult with students, check on class schedules, or write out passes. As the meeting place of faculty and administration, the office provides an integral, communicative link to the student body. The office, and the people in it, comprise the hub of life at Dyer Central. Mr. George Bibich, Supervising Principal

From Hamlet to Holden English has been in the curriculum since the student entered school. Then, students learned the parts of speech and memorized countless rules of capitalization and punctuation. After entering high school, English criteria was a little different. Instead of reviewing parts of speech, teachers leaned towards writing, composing, speaking and reading. Students broadened their interest in books and were intro¬ duced to the classics. A deeper meaning and the message of the books were stressed. Writing skills were developed from numerous themes that were assigned. Never to be forgotten was the first time it was announced that the student had to give an impromptu speech in fr ont of class. The English language is rapidly becoming the accepted language of the world. Although this language has been spoken by the student as long as they have known, the uses and communications learned at Dyer will make more rounded individuals of the future. Mr. Edward Robertson, B.S., M.S., Indiana State; English, literature, varsity football and basketball coach. 30
