SUPH LEARN This year we sophomores really began to feel like a part of MHS. Our teachers were foremost in develop- ing this attitude, because relaizing the needs of each student, they helped us develop our own abilities and individuality. We truly learned more from our teach- ers than English, algebra, biology, Latin, and world history. Many of our teachers, we found, were pretty inter- esting people with special interests and abilities of their own. Mr. Rony's knowledge of other countries and languages amazed us. We enjoyed his historical accounts and personal anecdotes that enlivened our Latin period. Mrs. Howell, Randoph Macon graduate land former MHS cheerledaerj, knew how to make biology seem easy for us. We could always tell which day she went to Emory to study for her Master of Art in teaching science, especially if she didn't have her homework! Our teachers enjoyed relaxing in interesting and different ways. Miss Outlaw particularly liked to cury up with a book of non-fiction, while Mr. Stabler enjoyed golfing and hiking. Mrs. White, Agnes Scott alumna, was typical of many of our teachers. She devoted much of her time and energy to the school and students as well as to her home, family, church, and community activities. Marietta High School is indeed fortunate in having teachers who are interested in more than just Hreading, 'writing, and 'rithmeticf' SPIRIT UF MHS Algebra is fun, says Mrs. White, tenth grade algebra teacher.

FACULTY IDS Doctor, lawyer, Indian chief! We freshmen really considered every possible occupation as we tried to choose our future professions. We also had to decide which course we would study during our remaining years at Marietta High School. Our studies became stimulating adventures as we realized how important each particular subject might be in our chosen career. Algebra, a new field in math for us, was not always very easy to understand. Thank goodness Miss San- ford continued to work with us until she was certain we knew our lesson! In our freshman English classes Miss Culley and Mr. Jones guided us toward a basic knowledge of important grammar and literature, while our science teachers introduced exciting, new facts. Circle around and go for that touchdown, instructs Bill Lundy. varsity football and track coach. For three years Coach Lundy, M Club advisor, has taught boys' physical education at MHS.
