.ie n Top: Mr. Darrell Williams, Mr. Kenneth Wiatrek, and Miss Lupe Ruiz look up their pictures in the 1965 Wrangler where they appeared as students. This year, get- ting a chance to see the other side, they chose to come back to McCollum and start their teaching careers. Middle: Many evenings after school, Mr. Theodore Muel- ler stayed to help students interested in slide rule prepare for the University Interscholastic League competition. Here, he helps students Judy Puryear and Nancy Walker. Left: Sometimes, no mat- ter how hard you try, you can not under- stand how to work a problem unless it is explained to you over and over.

Guidance, Learning Culiivale Math Concepts A math teacher has a very demanding job. He not only has to present the facts, but a lot of times he also has to be able to prove they are right. There are times, too, when the instructor's lecture has to be so simple that the most innocent mind can comprehendg while yet being complex enough to keep the superior mind alert and alive. Unlike other courses, he only has a limited supply of charts and drawings on his subject . . . he has to depend mainly on himself. Whether itis related math, algebra, geometry, trig or analytical geometry, it's all the same . . . one thing has to be learned before you go on to the next step . . . how rapidly and how high you go depends on how much you are willing to give. It takes an instructor to guide, but a student to learn. Below: Robert Jones, junior, instructs Mr. Bill Stack in correct technique for using his new golf club. The club was presented to Mr. Stack by his fifth period class in honor of his new son, Andy. I 36 math MRS.

38 p.e. Exercise of Bodg + Skill ol' Mind: Phgsical Eduoaiion Physical education is just as important as mental education. All physical education classes are based on a curriculum that attempts to meet the needs of 9th, 10th, llth, and 12th graders. The amount ofinforma- tion and skills taught will, of course, vary from year to year. Physical education is composed of classes in team sports, individual sports, dual sports, athletics, intra- murals, and other classes such as ROTC, pep squad, and band. All physical education classes combine exercise of the body with skill ofthe mind. MSG. WILIE E. BURNS-Military, Rifle team MR.
