MARGUERITE S. SMALL English Mrs. Small, who has taught at MHS for thirteen years, has always lived in Vermont. Before coming here, she taught in Richmond, Cambridge, and Morrisville. She likes teaching English because she feels that we should know our own language and that there is an ever-increasing need for expressing ourselves more effectively. When not correcting papers, Mrs. Small enjoys books, travel, church and club work, and — in the domestic field — braiding rugs and cooking. DOROTHY C. TOBEY Homemaking Mrs. Tobey, our homemaking instructor for the past nine years, grew up in North Hampton, New Hampshire. She attended the Robinson Seminary of Exeter and later graduated from the University of New Hampshire. Before teaching here, she instructed in schools in Concord and Lin- coln, New Hampshire. Mrs. Tobey enjoys the various phases of homemaking, and her outside interests include antiques and her cat, Timmy, who also likes antiques. DONALD S. TOWLE Industrial Arts Mr. Towle believes that in this day of automation we should not neglect the manual skills. He has taught at MHS for fourteen years and has done a great deal for students interested in shop work. A graduate of Fitchburg State Teachers College, he has also taught in St. Johnsbury, Ver- mont, and Fairfield, Connecticut. Among his outside inter- ests are camping and woodcraft. BUELL S. JENKINS Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds The more forgetful students of MHS would be lost with- out Mr. Jenkins. The mournful “I've lost my locker key is an all-too-familiar phrase to him. That he is a busy man is an understatement. He is indispensable in keeping our school looking beautiful and running smoothly. Mr. Jenkins grew up in the neighboring state of New York and graduated MARY M. WHITNEY Director of Hot Lunch Program “Doesn't it smell good? — Yes, we're talking about the appetizing aroma coming from our school cafeteria. Mrs. Whitney, our busy school lunch supervisor deserves credit for this. Mrs. Whitney is a graduate of the University of Maine and majored in home economics. She has had many experiences as food director and dietician. We certainly are grateful to her and her competent staff for such consistently good meals.

JOANNE C. MURRAY Commercial Miss Murray grew up in Rutland and Williamstovvn and graduated from the University of Vermont with a B. S. in business education. She has been at MHS for three years. She tells us that she teaches commercial subjects because she believes it is important for everyone to understand the basic problems of the business world and our economic needs for skilled employees. When she’s not coaching winning de- bate teams, she enjoys reading, listening to music, spectating at sports, and attending plays. DORIS I. NEWTON —Music Miss Newton, a native of Andover, Massachusetts, is the enthusiastic and capable director of all our MHS choral groups: Freshman Chorus, Girls’ Glee Club, Boys’ Chorus, and the Mixed Chorus. Besides training these groups she is also the music supervisor for the grades at Union School. Two of her avocations are, appropriately enough, traveling and hiking. After receiving degrees from Lowell State Teachers College and Boston University, Miss Newton taught in three other New England states before coming to Vermont. BIAGIO PALERMO General Science and Mathematics A newcomer to MHS, Mr. Palermo has jumped right into the swing of things. The Ski Club members will vouch for the fact that he is the one from whom to learn the ways of the barrel staves. However, he’s not always on the slopes, for we’ve seen him at all the Solons' basketball games. In spring he keeps busy with the Jayvee baseball team. It’s hard to tell who is giving whom the biggest workout. ELIZABETH K. PETERSON English Miss Peterson, a native of Montpelier, came to us from Maplewood, New Jersey. She graduated from the Univer- sity of Vermont, Columbia University, and did post-graduate work at Rutgers, New York University, and Middlebury. Her hobbies include reading, photography, handicrafts and gardening. She has also traveled extensively through the United States, Alaska, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Me? ico and Europe. LEONARD A. PORTER Biology Mr. Porter is an alumnus of MHS, Norwich University, and Boston University. He has worked as a bread sales- man, Army judo instructor, and lab and X-ray technician. However, he prefers teaching because it is satisfying to help teen-agers develop an interest and knowledge of science. His avocations are hunting, archery, and a study of the history of the U. S. Navy and its ships. In the fall he hopes to publish a book, Warships of the U. S. Navy, 1775-1955.
