unctioning smoothly MISS MYRNA CHAMBERS One of the most respected persons in Lincoln High School is Miss Myrna Chambers. Through her work she is personally acquainted with almost every student in Lincoln High. She teaches Algebra I, a preparatory course for higher mathematics. Her students gain a substantial knowledge in all phases of algebra. Miss Chambers is a himiliar face in the ollice. With her wide knowledge of matters pertaining to the school. she is well qualified to handle the various office duties and to account for the absentees each day. ln her spare time she has a yen for cooking. Some lucky students and hiculty each year are fortunate enough to taste her wonderful fudge. MYRNA CHAMBERS WB. S., Geneva Collegeg algebra: assistant principal. MR. RALPH SHAFFER Mr. Shaffer, one of the most active of our facultv members, assumes the duties of an assistant principal and of .1 teacher. His tasks as assistant principal are legion since he must act as principal when Mr. Shepley is absent, must arrange student schedules, and must hear the cases of many lost students and books. He is also custodian of all school supplies. Mr. Shaffer's voice is very himiliar to us through special public Miss Myrna Chambers Mr. Ralph Shaffer MR ons Sinvtii 'vias P-iriucis.

Some tinies they fail to reflect the life and sparkle of the events of yesterday. Sometimes they neglect the human element which made the events worth recording. This is especially true when the interpreter of history is concerned with deeds rather than with people. But the ELLWOODIAN is not that kind of a record. Woodie and his staff have been interested in peopleg people who are alive and full of action. Woodie's photographers and writers have caught their subjects in poses and situations which reveal the rim and vitality of life in Lincoln High. As the years turn, it is reasonable to expect that these pages will be returned and that ..WCJCIdl6.Sll history will be relired in the dreams and memories of his friends. jonx A. SHEPLEY 9

SCHOOL BOARD In order to make our school one ot' the most etlicient in this area, we must have an active School Board. Our Board members have a genuine interest in all the activities that take place in and around our school. Board members are chosen by ballot for a period of six years. Harry Zeigler is President and Frank Potter, VicefPresident for the year 195253. Members of the board are chosen to head the three standing committees. Dr. H. E. Helling heads the Personnel and Education Committeeg Paul Reynolds is chairman of the Revenue When one opens a new yearboolq and turns the pages. he is thrilled with the original and clet-er manner in which a class has recorded, by printed word and by picture, some of the amusing and memorable et-ents of their school days. Much credit for this nntst go to those who were directly connected with the preparation of the book: the editors, the artists, the photographers, and sponsors. But their efforts alone could not hate prof duced this fne publication without the cooperative interest and support of all members of the class. Appreciation of the publication will be enhanced through the years, and a real joy will be experienced twenty years from now, when you pick up the 1053 ELLWOODIAN and recall to memory, the faces and places which were 50 familiar to you as seniors in Lincoln High School. bl.
