Teachers have been told repeatedly that theirs is an essential occupation. Even though several of the ladies have cast longing eyes at the smart WAVE uniforms or dreamed of landing with the Marines, the cold fact of teacher shortage has kept them at their posts. On the whole, the men have valiantly resisted “‘big money”’ and have stayed to give basic training to future draftees. Incidentally, the job of teaching has not become any easier since parents have literally moved out of so many homes. Adaptability is the word for many teacher activ- ities. ‘‘Boss’? Marsee has admited girls to his print shop. Ex-dean Cravens now supervises both junior and senior high school English. ‘“‘Greer’? Davidson has taken over the senior play which has long been considered a major event of the year. Miss Duguid Lola Jane Rosenberger, Alice Baker, Florence Erwin, Lucine Jones, Emily Barracks. changed her name to Mrs. Roy Kohler. ‘‘Dutch”’ or “Casanova” Thurston will soon be known as ‘“‘Ser- geant’’ because of his success as a drill master in P. F. “Daddy” Arndt turned wizard when he molded a bunch of average boys into the crew that beat Central. And how! ‘“‘Perky” Perkins, burdened to the ears, finally gave up with “I’m too busy to talk to you.”” Miss Emily Barracks grew lovelier with an up-swept hair do, while “‘Cannonball” Baker took classes. ‘to a “Butch” hair cut. Mr. Stout emerged as master of ceremonies de luxe on the basis of his accumulation of stories.

Miss Lynetta Wilson, our new dean of girls, spends a tremendous amount of time checking tar- diness and chronic absence among the girls. Only after such minor matters have been cleared up is she free to approach the real problems of unsatis- factory conduct and lack of adjustment, which are the true province of a dean. As arule she finds both the girls and their parents helpful and cooperative. - With a smile on his face, Mr. H. H. Hatcher readily admits that his first love is finance adminis- tration, He has served as comptroller since 1938. ““H.H.H.” also enjoys his work as dean of boys. With few exceptions he finds that the boys have a good attitude toward discipline. Mr. P. C. Emmons, Superintendent. (Above) Miss Ida L. Betts, Secretary to the Board of Education.
