Ufernieke rooms with suitable pictures and quotations. lXTr. lllullenz his continual willingness to help has made him friend of many. llliss lXlurdoch is known as adviser of Scriblerus, the new creative- writing club, and as she who plans the assembly programs. lVlr. Shaw's kindly teaching, and friendly counseling in the Lakewood Hi-Y chap- ter have endeared him to many. So, also, has lVIiss Taylor, because of her genuine interest in her students and her wish to further their best inter- ests. Our library, a most frequented place, is under the direction of lkliss Findley and her as- sistants, Miss Stockwell and Miss Beam. Fine teachers and equipment have Well pre- pared our science department to demonstrate the fundamentals of biology, chemistry, and physics. lllr. Pape is owner of exhibits of lwendelian rats, Lepidoptera, and Polish, Polynesian and Peruvian stamps, which may be seen in Room 208. Mr. Huhn teaches not only biology but also physics and mechanical drawing. The finances of the Arrow are in his care. Aquaria and planitaria, protozoa and amebas, ferns and lichens, all are found in Bliss Gillin's zoo. Heading the chemistry department is llflr. Bor- uff. In the Newton Society, in classes, he tosses electrons, flips protons, constructs moleculesg dumbfounds students. hlr Bradbury, patron of eligibility cards, which are the bane, and often knell, of athletic ambitions, also constructs mole- cules, explains valence and begrimes his hands. The How of electrons is perfectly comprehensible to lX'Ir. Decker and by it he explains the glowing of vacuum tubes to the Radio Club and the graphic construction of benzene to his classes. ln the laboratory, as well as when directing football and basketball, lllr. Kluckhohn is considered a good fellow. By careful explanations and illus- trative experiments lWr. VVebb lays a strong foundation of chemistry in the minds of his stu- dents. For twenty-six years, Mr. Collier, head of the physics department, has taught science in Lake- wood schools. Miss Hobbs, also of the physics department, is sponsor of the Photo Club, which takes most of the pictures for the High Times and Cinema. llflr. Wernicke serves both as teach- er of horticulture and as coach of the tennis team,

Stewart headed by lllr. Hanna, one may learn not only that to be never takes an object, and that appositives are set oil by commas, but also who wrote l'Thanatopsis, what the significance of An Ode to a Grecian Urn is, how to write a triolet, what faked news storiesn are, how to enunciate distinctly and why verisimilitude is necessary in short stories. lllr. Hanna, as faculty adviser, is responsible in part for the production of the Cinema. Certainly there are few students who do not know lllr. Wliite. He who conducts the creative English classes so inimitably, who directs the Barnstormers, who polices the halls during lunch periods: who can but know him? Journalism, taught by lllr. Howard, prepares for increased understanding and enjoyment of newspapers. lXIr. Howard may be found in Room 136 at all hours, aiding the writers and editors of the High Times. The ability to express one's self in public, an ever- increasing requisite to success in business, is learned in public speaking, taught by lWiss lwoore. She also teaches 12-A short story, the other 'VN the classes of the English department, special English course, in which a foundation in the technique and appreciation of this modern form of literature is gained. A market for literary productions of the students is the Arrow, our magazine, published under the careful supervision of lXIiss Edmonson. To anecdotes and illustrations, obtained from much traveling and reading, is due in large meas- ure the interest in the classics shown by students of Miss Beech's classes. lXIiss O'Neill's careful explanations of grammatical points and lVIiss Brown's knowledge and understanding of litera- ture do much to make the English department excellent. The Whitman Society, of which hliss Byers is in charge, encourages in its members a love for the esthetic in prose and poetry. To the fact that hlr. Cantrell, though excellent as English in- structor, would never succeed as teacher of pen- manship, many blackboards bear sad witness. The English Council, supervised by llliss Coney, aids students to understand and appreciate their na- tive language. It has established chapters in other high schools and undertaken decorating English

Galanie which has won championships since nobody re- members when. lllore than a quarter of a century's service in the schools of Lakewood is lllr. Gates' record. For those many years the head of the mathematics department has been finding x's, making tangents and cotangents, secants and cosecants, and help- ing to mold lives. lllr. Bixler this year adds sev- eral hundred more to the legion of seniors to whom he has been adviser and home room teacher. A small, friendly man with a vast knowledge of angles, triangles and rectangles, lines, sines and signs, is lllr. Garner. Perhaps foreboding to the girls is lXIiss Hobson, nevertheless, mercy tem- pers justice in ber duties as girls' attendance ofiicer. Besides his classes, lX'lr. Siggins also has charge of the blath Club, in which magic squares and cubes, arithmetical inconsistencies and such- like are considered. llliss Smith has had charge of Community Fund and charity collections this year. Though he does not seem unduly inquisitive, nevertheless, lllr. Jessup, head of our history de- partment, knows what almost everyone of impor- tance has done from pre-Adamite creation on down. He directs the operation of our new talkie equipment. Miss Dawson's teaching in Bible history includes enlightening discussions of the Pentateuch, the Decalogue, and the Apoca- lypse. Miss Emery supervises a home room of senior girls, discourses history, chaperons dances, and makes friends. lllr. Holdren each year does a fine job as chairman of the Honor Day cere- monies. From his desk inside the main entrance, Klr. Huffman dispenses tickets for the whole gamut of Lakewood games, permits and assorted wisdom, economics and history. Another savant and pedant of history and civics is llliss Van Fleet, who can probably tell on what pension the third assistant pressman of the Bureau of Engrav- ing and Printing will be retired after serving thirty-seven years. lllr. Eberle, head of the French and German departments, could order a meal with ease even on a cannibal islandg he can converse in virtually any tongue except Icelandic. He sponsors the German Club.
