FA In V. Fvanizvn ccK m In room 219, amidst von fusion and tumult, a teacher sits at her desf( calmly sorting readmit slips, ice cream bills, and chemistry ex- periments. This remarkable person is Mrs. Etta V. Frantzen, senior section teacher, student council spon- sor, and chemistry teacher. It was a luc (y day for Murphy when Mrs. Frantzen joined the faculty three years ago. Her under- standing glance and sympathetic words have made her a beloved teacher of a difficult subject. Her infectious laughter brings sunshine to the daily routine. A mother to the girls, a pal to the boys, she is a delightful companion to all, whether in the chemistry laboratory or on a student council convention trip. A wonderful teacher and an even more wonderful person, Mrs. Frant- zen has completely won the affec- tion of Murphy High students. • 7 •

w f V HE HEN I consider Life and its feta years— A wisp of fog betwixt us and the sun; A call to battle, and the battle done Ere the last echo dies within our ears; A rose choked in the grass; an hour of fears; The gusts that past a darkening shore do beat; The burst of music down an unlistening street,— wonder at the idleness of tears. Ye old, old dead, and ye of yesternight, Chieftains, and bards, and peepers of the sheep, By every cup of sorrow that you had, Loose me from tears, and make me see aright How each hath back what once he stayed to weep: Homer his sight, David his little lad! Mr. Lawler devoted a goodly jxmion of his life to Murphy High School — as teacher of science and biology and chairman of the Science department, as pioneer in visual education both at Murphy and in Mobile County, as general co-ordinator of the complex exaluation program of 1950. Friends at Murphy will long remember Mr. Lawler’s kind face, which wore in later years “the twilight of a grief, but in that grief the star- light of a smile. They will remember the face because they loved the man. • 9 •
