Chemistry, physics, and biology were taught by two bachelors this year, (one wasn't enough) Mr. Larsen had the first semester, then Mr. Fumey took over the second semester. They also advised the senior class. The students did more with their voices last year than just talking, when Mrs. Judy DeGraaff came and taught elementary and high school music. For the enjoyment of the whole town she supervised the Christ- mas Program and a spring and fall concert. Mr. Larson is presently serving his country. Bingo, anyone?” This year's toot-toot section of LPHS was under the direction of Mr. Gene Holter, the instrumental music teacher. Besides working with the pep band, Mr. Holter was kept very busy during the year with A-band, B-band, stage band and advising the sophomore class. Some of the highlights of his year were the pops concert, ensemble and solo contest and the combined concert. 6

Move it, move it, move it! could be heard sounding through the gym as Mr. Henry Len- ards watched over his high school girls and boys physical education classes. When not busy with athletics he taught U. S. history. Being the advisor for the junior class they always found some way to keep him busy. Basketball, track and girls athletic program were his extracur- ricular responsibilities. 7 Don't let the smile fool you, Mr. Keith Jandahl in his first year at LPHS, wasn't always in such a jolly mood when he taught typing I and II, economics and bookkeeping. He was also busy during the year trying to bring the B basket- ball squad on to victory. The annual staff and sophomore class were lucky to have him as a helpful advisor. Ambling through the halls of LPHS this year was another new member of the faculty, Mr. Paul Dobbs. Occupying most of his time dur- ing the year was his job as head football and wrestling coach and assistant track coach. Filling in the rest of the year he taught grade and high school physical education classes and general business. He was also advisor to the sophomore class.
