FACULTY DOROTHY NOMMENSEN Music LORAINE SCHUMACHER Physical Education VELMA KLEIN School Nurse DON HUDDLESTON sical Education Classes which required no everyday textbook study were of course the favorites with the students.To Coach Huddleston and the boys went the new gym, where basketball and tumbling were among the things practiced. Miss Schumacher inherited the Lincoln gym but helped to change things by having the girls purchase new brown shorts and yellow shirts. Classes in manual arts,taught by Mr.Calder and Mr.Holyoke, used their wookwork knowledge in making bookcases,desks,and other furniture.Preparing and serving a complete meal was an accomplishment of the food classes taught by Miss Steinke. Wearing dresses they had made in class was the big achievement of Miss Herwig's sewing pupils. Do-mi-sol-dos were sung in the boys' and girls1 glee clubs and Mixed Chorus with Miss Nommensen as director. Miss Klein, the school nurse, making daily visits to this building to check on absentees,tried so hard to keep us all healthy that she had to go to the hospital for rest the latter part of the year.

The club worked to promote good sportsmanship, to present new cheers and new school songs. Interested in the appearance of the cheerleaders as well as in their ability, the council was instrumental In the purchase of scarlet and silver cheerlepding outfits. Arranging for the social functions of the school,that Is,setting the dates, and scheduling clubs to act as hosts at all-school mixers, was one of the duties of this group. The council had charge of the pep meetings. During graduation week each year this representative tody presents awards for citizenship,scholarship, and work as school banker. Two representatives from each class, the council president, the class sponsors, and the high school principal comprise the Student Council.
