Aside from the specific objective of imparting their knowledge on specialized fields of study. teachers had thc opportunity to utilize other abilities in extra curricular activities. They served as ad- visors to the many school clubs and organiza- tions. On the athletic fields and gym floors, male faculty members coached football, basketball. and spring sports. Some were called upon to fill various administrative positions in school. The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for the purpose of satisfying it afterwards.

lk- JUST tell us when you're ready down there, Mr. Forsberg calls to physics students on the ground as rooftop experi menters prepare to time the descent of falling obiects. Supporting and participating in school func- tions not only involved faculty members, but of- ten embraced their families as well. Acting as chaperones on tours, buses. and at dances pro- vided them with still more school responsibilities. During summer months, teachers enjoyed de- served vacations, indulged in hobbies. held out- side employment. took post-graduate studies. and prepared for fall classes. Throughout the school year. faculty mem- bers welcomed informal chats and friendly diver- sions with fellow teachers. The experience of opening young minds to worlds of knowledge and shaping the future of society were grave responsibilities included in the realm of teaching which made it a rewarding and worthwhile profession.
