Hononegah High School - Mack Yearbook (Rockton, IL)

The Cabinet In the last year Hononegah has became military minded. Not only students, but teachers, have been given military ranks. Mr. O. E. Loomis, our Chief of Staff, teaches social subjects and manages to keep his classes alive and awake with his rare sense of humor and fair play. We don't think of him as a stern ruler but as a friendly, understanding teacher. Mr. Don Hicks has personality plus, a way with privates on K. P., and has advanced many boot camp recruits into the commissioned ofli- cers that we are today. Mr. Fay Root instructs boys in manual training and Boy Scout work. He has trained them in tumbling and acrobatics, which are es- sential to make strong soldiers for Uncle Sam's Army, Navy, Marine, and Coast Guard men. Mrs. Ruth Northrup, our commandress of English and Latin, has improved our library 100'W'. In the library she has placed material for boys and girls to read if they wish to join any branch of service for the United States of America. Mrs. Mabel Laflin, who is commandress of biology an.d general sciense, is also sponsor of the G.A.A. and instructs all the girls' classes in physical education. She is doing a wonderful job in physical educa- tion, as it gives the girls the fitness to join the WAACS or WAVES for their support to the United States. Miss Frances Klitzkie, a new commandress at Hononegah, instructs commercial subjects. She is the commanding officer of the Indian and the Mack. She is friendly but very businesslike and efficient in her commands. Miss Adelaide Ewing, as you have already guessed, is also a new commandress. She instructs American history. English, and chorus. When you listen to the band you might think you were listening to an Army band. The chorus is mostly girls, but they might belong to the WAACS and WAVES. Miss Mabel Theobald, who is also a new commandress, t.eaches home economics. When she commands her orders are obeyed the very way Commandos strike-swiftly and efficiently. ...13....
