As a result, a laculty committee under the leadership of Miss Louise Haack was appointed to compile a list of those juniors who were eligible for membership. ln the spring of 1961, the list was sent to all faculty members who rated each student on the basis of character, leadership, scholarship, and service. The final selection was approved by the ten teachers who belong to the chapter committee.

Truly, if any teacher could be said to be a friend of his students, it could be said of oiu' well-known physics teacher, Elmer Bak- er.

A marine in World War I, a top football player at Iowa State, head football and basketball coach at Goodrich for many years - Bake has always proved his capabilities: those who know him real- ize the full meaning of the words, A friend is leaving us. A teacher for thirty-seven years in Fond du Lac, Lynn Topliss has always been a credit to himself, his family, and his friends.
