THE FACULTY OF MANLIUS HIGH SCHOOL o Miss Coleman has been at Manlius for four years, so everyone is quite well acquainted with her. Miss Coleman has both Master's and Bachelor's degrees. She teaches junior and senior English and also social studies. She is senior class sponsor this year and has done an excellent job at coaching their class play and engineering other projects they have undertaken. Several of the senior boys have found they can change Miss Coleman's mind when she starts to cuss them out by telling some silly joke. She has a wonderful sense of humor. Miss Code, our new home economics teacher, hails from nearby Bradford. Although she is not much bigger than a minute she can put even the huskiest shot putter in his place. The girls in home economics enjoy Miss Code immensely, she seems almost like one of them. It is hard for some of the students to keep from calling her Mary Jean. Miss Code received her B. S. degree at Illinois State Normal University. Mrs. Alberta Loos is another newcomer. She attended Teacher's College High School in Cape Giradeau, Missouri. She received her B.Ed. degree at Missouri State College. Mrs. Loos did correspondence work at Southern Illinois while teaching a rural grade school at Harrisburg, in Cape Giradean county, Missouri. Mrs. Loos teaches freshman and sophomore English and both classes of girls' physical education. We hear she has quite a time with some of the girls. Elinor Van Ormer graduated with the Class of '47 and has been the office secretary for two years. If you want to know anything just ask Elinor. I wonder just how many students go to her every day? She flits around like a busy little bee going after this teachet or that, or conveying a message to someone. We really don't know what we ever did without Elinor before.
