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

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

acultu Music and Miss Marjorie U pshaw (A.B., B.M.. Bessie Tift, Oglethorpe, Emory, Columbia) are synonymous at M. H. S. The Glee Club has been a feature of many an occasion. Its director has also found time to give of her talent in directing the First Baptist Choir. Public school music, piano, and voice are Miss Upshaw ' s classes. Covj Mr. E. Fishing would often be preferable to his exacting duties as principal and shop instructor, we know, but Mr. E. D. Covin aton (B.S.. M.S., Western Kentucky State Teachers College and University of Tennessee) is always on the job here at school. He also finds time to serve as superin- tendent of the Intermediate Department of the First Bap- tist Church, and to do a little gardening on the side. Miss Mary E. Smith Miss Mary Ellen Smith (B.S., Commerce, Univrr-ity r Georgia) who has been at M. H. S. for a number of years, is high priestess of typewriting. Superintendent. of the Primai-y Department of the First Baptist Church, and a Nurse ' s Aide, Miss Smith has little time to indulge her hobbies of collecting coins, and i)ainting. A sports fan, she usually gets to see the la t half of the games (when the box office closes). Never a dull moment say her students of Mrs. E. G. Livingston (B.S., Kansas State Teachers College, Pitts- burg, Kansas ) . Shorthand and bookkeeping come alive when Mrs. Livingston ' s personality is integrated with them. Secretary of the local unit of G. E. A., and a student of voice, her world is one of business, culture, and domesticity. G. Livingston 14
