Mrs, J- R. CalJis Miss Edith Lee acuuu The Army Air Corps is her SPECIAL interest, but Mm. . . R. Callison (B.S.. Ed.. G. S. C. W. ) has a heart big enoufrh to hold the Phys. Ed. department, the girls basketball team, and the Athletic Associa- tion. Listed in National Who ' s Who in American Collepes. this dynamic, but petite instructor is an integral part of M. H. S. Psychiatry is a special interest of Miss Edith Lee (A.B.. University of Georgia), and probably this helps counterbalance her classes in biology. Sunday School work and keeping scrapbooks provide other outlets for this versatile young teacher, who in college was in the upper 5 per cent of her class and made the Dean ' s List with regularity. Designing and sewing are the twin hobbies of Miss Helen Watson (B.S.. H.E.. University of Georgia), who teaches freshman science. From Carrollton, Ga.. Miss Watson formerly taught Home Ec. at Fort Gaines, coming to Marietta this year to take the place of Mrs. Harrison, who resigned early in the year. Phi Mil, Cardinal Key Honorary Society, Who ' s Who in Amarican Co ' Ieges, all these and m t.ny others were tUlts a few years ago of Miss Christine Booth (A.B., Mercer University), even though her students can ' t see how she could have any mind left after learn ' ng : s much chemistry and physics as she knows. Her most recent career is that of Nurse ' s Aide. Miss Helen Watson

g mUu Diminutive bat dynamic describes Miss Catherine Alley (A.B.. Wesleyan College) who teaches mathe- matics. You have to learn in her classes ; she just won ' t let you pret bored, said one of her students ; she teaches a while ; then when she sees you ' re not Hstening she cracks a few jokes, and then teaches some more. Soft voice and sense of humor characterize Mrs. J. Rae White (A.B., A nes Scott), as well as her infinite patience in explaining geometry, algebra, and trig. The State Hi-Y trophy should have Louise B. White somewhere on it. for her capable leader- ship helped our Hi-Y place it in the trophy case. A lot of fun, said one of her students, of Miss Bessie M. Sanford, ( A.B. ) . but her extensive train- ing at Randolph-Macon, Lynchburg, Peabody Col- lege, Nashville, and Columbia University. New York, have made her a jam-up high school math teacher too. Even freshmen eight hours a day for the school year don ' t bother her ; she ' s a Camp Counsellor in the summer. J ' ss Cailie « Webo Tri-Hi-Y was fortunate to secure Miss Cailie Bell Webb (A.B.. G. S. C. W.) as advisor when Miss Juanita Pitts, former sponsor, resigned at Christmas. Reserveu and versatile, Miss Webb teaches English III and Math II. with church work and a Nurse ' s Aide course as extras. Collecting poetry, tennis, hik- ing, and swimming complete the portrait of vers- atility. Miss Bessie Sanford

Coach Henry L. Kemp ( B.S., University of Georgia, Presbyterian College, Emory ) with his withering repartee and understanding of high school characters is easily one of the most popular teachers on the campus. Football players, especially, got to know him well : freshmen, still better, and general science and history class s QUITE WELL. C- ach Harrison Anderson Coach Harrison Andersov ( A.B., University of Georgia ) , popularly known as Andy led a fi rhting Blue Devil basketball te- m ALMOST to the state championshin. A fir-o b s ' ' hall ' flayer him- ' ' f, Mr. Anderson coaches basketball, and teaches Boy ' s Phys. Ed. and Ameri- can history. Fitting into the place of Miss Juanita Pitts, who resigned at Christmas, Mrs. James Townsend (B.S., Home Ec, G. S. C. W.) has quickly become an integral part of M. H. S. Sweet and quiet ( in spite of the red hair ) . Mrs. Townsend keeps an eagle eye on those lazy persons who do not take their plates back. Mrs. Lewis B. Williams Mrs. Lew ' s B. Williams (B.S., Home Ec. G. S. C. W.) has stepped competently into the position of freshman Home Economics teacher held by Miss Elizabeth Johnson before Christmas. Mrs. Williams is interested in Woman ' s Club and Sunday School work; but her avocation, which fits in admirably with her vocation, is costume designing. GCuliu 13
