For tiie 1953 school term, the Faculty Club selected these officers. They are, left to right. Miss Betty Jean Matthews, Secretary-Treasurer; Mr. Donovan Darnell, Vice-President; and Mrs. Kathryn Pierce, President. T he more than sixty teachers here furnish much of the motivation and their share of the conflict that make Senior’s story so full of action. Their classrooms or the scenes of the activities they sponsor form the setting for the events that make up this plot. There is always something going on around the clinic, the library, the school store, the gym, in home room. And like the students under their care, the teachers are all important characters in whatever goes on. They even contribute in large measure to the local color. For instance, Mr. Glenn’s massive charm, Mrs. Newman’s dancing feet. Miss Mitchell’s complete efficiency. Miss Gabriel ' s breezy vitality, and Miss Tuttle’s colorful names for her pet “buzzards are only a few of the touches that enliven our story. Miss Dorothy McNairy lends a much-needed helping hand as the council members wade through registration for another semester. 28
