Of Organizcltio VICE-PRINCIPAL ROSCOE COYNE, who was in charge of discipline of students, served as a one-man riot squad for the school in handling his big iob.There were few students who did not know Mr. Coyne, and even fewer who did not, at one time or another, appear on his little list. Along with holding down the responsibility of keeping all l,lOO students within the four walls of HHS, and keeping track of them through six hours of the day, he taught a class in general math. Mr. Coyne, who graduated from Kansas State Teacher's College at Pittsburg, received his Master's degree from Wichita university. Although his lob kept him busy most of the time, he did manage to find some time to get in a little outdoor activity and recreation. t I 5 IF THEY ONLY HAD A DOOR- BELL TO ANSWER-Donna Battin, Judy Schmelzer, Arlis Voth, Anna Belle De Weese, and Jan Davis pause momentarily in their work in the school office. These girls along with Donna Malow, assisted the office staff during school time.

PRINCIPAL R. C. GUY I'LL CHECK THAT - Miss Pearl Clinton, school secretary, reaches for the phone to check an item on the report Miss Donna Rowland is filling out. Even though the clerical work in the office kept them busy, they were never too busy to help some student get back into class, or help someone get excused from class. Principal R. C. Guy, whose duty it was to see that the mechanics of the school functioned smoothly, did much more than sit at the head of an efficiently run school. He always found time to offer a dry shoulder to students, or faculty members, who had problems. lt has largely been through his efforts that HHS students have gained many of the free- doms and privileges they enioy. He has also filled the role of adopted father to l,l0O frus- trated teen-agers who were orphaned six hours a day, five days a week, and left in his care. Mr. Guy served actively in school interests outside HHS. He was the representative of first- class cities on the State Committee of the North Central Association, the coordinator for the Kansas Association of Secondary School princi- pals, and on the Advisory Committee, Board of Nominators, and Committee on Contests and Activities of the National Association of Secon- dary School Principals. Mr. Guy holds B. S. and M. S. Degrees from Kansas State Teacher's College at Pitts- burg, Kansas. Office s enter

Representatives Speak for Students Stuco, the student governing body of HHS, had nu- merous and varied tasks to perform throughout the school year. The group, consisting of one representative from each home room, was co-sponsored by Mr. Stephen Butcher and Miss Ruth Evans. Making decisions concerning the activities of all organ- izations inthe school was the chief function of the council. Early in the fall Stuco played host to the sophmores by planning Orientation Day, a program which acquainted the newcomers with high school life. The first dance ofthe year, held September 30 in the gym after Hutchinson beat Wichita West in football, was sponsored by Stuco. The organization also took charge of an after semester exam dance and variety show to help finance new uniforms for the cheerleaders. ln T955-56, Hutchinson became the second home for the second exchange student to attend HHS. The program was sponsored nationally by the American Field Service and locally by Student Council. Funds were appropriated from the annual talent show to bring Ralph Brudo to Hutchinson from France. Under the direction of its President, Bill Nelson, and supervision of the sponsors, the Student Council executed many beneficial proiects wisely and efficiently.
