Mr. Clarence Sauer came to Oregon to teach from back east. He chose Grant Un- ion as the school and immediatley exhibited his efficiency. He had directed the music department, both the chorus and the band as well as the history classes, world his- tory, geography and U.S. history and government. Miss Janet Flower is one of the new faculty members whom we were honored to have. She has taken the duties in com- mercial department, typing and the short- hand classes, and is the girls’ physical ed. instructor. An old standby, Mr. Mark Willoughby, has proven to be one of the most popular members of the faculty during his four years tenure at Grant. He had capably handled the post of Senior advisor in ad- dition to his duties as a teacher of junior English, senior Journalism and Speech, and Shop classes. Miss Margaret Vinton experiencing her initial term in Grant Union, has done magnificiently as our librarian. She has achieved equal recognition with the soph- omore English class.

Mr. A1 Haberly, principal of our edu- cational institution, has proven himself a capable critic, advisor, and leader for the past eight years. He is a valuable asset to us not only for his splendid leadership-- but also as a teacher of social problems in the senior class of social economics. We are very grateful to have Miss Rose- mary Ruminski as a member of our faculty, serving as the instructor of our home economic courses and also as our Latin educator. Mr. Thomas Johnson Jr. came to Grant Union in the fall of 1942. In the eight year period, he had moulded many champion teams in both football and basketball. Coach Johnson is not only the athletic director but also a teacher of sophomore biology, el- ementary mathematics, and physical edu- cation director. Mr. Thomas Heily has an undisputable amount of scientific knowledge. We are glad to welcome him to our halls-of-learning. He has donated his best in conducting the science classes, chemistry, elementary science, and algebra.
