The twinkle that lurks be- hind the glare in his eyes makes him a popular teacher. • BETTY HOULE'S sparkling personali- ty is only one of the things that made her classes enjoyable.

She seems to have a way of making people like her, without being obvious about it. RAY HANSON BETTY HOULE v JEAN SPELTZ TOM JANSA R. HAMMOND 7
