Interests, Hobbies, Pastimes Are Could it be that our three musically inclined faculty members are listening to the strains of School Days ? More than likely, though, it is a rnodern melody that Mr. Bernard Quinn, history instructor, is playing. Mr. Quinn has been asked to perform at various assemblies during the year. Mrs. Helen McGeever, choir director, is the authority on vocal tones. Mrs. Teresa Boylan, English teacher, enioys her fine record collection. Viewing renzembrances of the life lived at Murrray are these four sports enthusiasts. Mr. John Pearson, biology and physical education instructor, is explaining the history be- hind sorne of the newly added trophies, Listening intently to Mr. Pearson are Mrs. Patricia Fritsche, physical education instructor, Mrs. Ann Weiss, English teacher, and Miss Dona Lou Edlund, English teacher. Each of these faculty members are attendants at Murray's many sports events. Making artistic designs and decorations is a hobby com mon to Mrs, Vivian Johnson, Mrs. Marion Flemming, anc Miss Marie Darche. Miss Darche, art teacher, is an annua entrant in the State Fair and has many awards for he work. She is shown here demonstrating how to make iew elry. Mrs. Flemming, art and Spanish instructor, is adding the extra touch on the candles, while Mrs. Johnson, Englisl teacher, is giving helpful criticisms on the finished products A hobby of growing popularity with students and teach ers is woodcraft. Here, Mr. Bernard Broderick, Roger Sar gent, twoeyear woodshop student, Mr. George Bergup, ann Curt Smith, three-year woodshop student, admire a ter table, an example of Mr. Bergup's abilities. Mr. Broderick who coaches hockey, tennis, and cross country, and teache algebra, and Mr. Bergup, who teaches woodshop ant directs school athletics, have an interest in this hobby. Page twelve

Faculty With Pleasant Relaxation Keeping visible and lasting reminders of The Life We Live through their hobby of photography are Miss Mar- garet Paschke, mathematics instructor, Mr. Bill Addison, Latin and English teacher, and Mr. Eugene Pose, instructor in the metal shop. Both Miss Paschke and Mr. Addison have studied in Europe, Miss Paschke as an exchange teacher, and Mr. Addison on a Latin scholarship. They are showing slides of their colorful trips to Mr. Pose who is interested in the technical side of photography. Now William Tell, be careful, warns Mr. Reno Rossini as Mr. John Mather indulges in his hobby, archery. Sports- minded Mr. Clarence Fulmek, mathematics teacher in addi- tion to being golf coach, is a bit dubious. He is suggesting that Mr. Mather confine his enthusiasm to his senior social studies classes and that Mr. Rossini continue his task of educating chemistry and mathematics wizards. The world of books has a strong fascination for three instructors who use them as tools in their work and as an aid to relaxing in leisure hours, Here are Miss Mary Healy and Miss Margaret Glenn, English teachers, and Miss Marion Gratz, librarian. All three collect books as a hobby. Miss Glenn's favorite readings are in her anthologies of poetry, Miss Gratz has a complete collection of the works of Don Byrne, while Miss Healy has several books over one hundred years old. This picture should have been taken inthe summer in one of the gardens of the three teachers shown here, for each spends considerable time with her hobby. Miss Valborg Helseth, business instructor, is arranging flowers as Miss Florence Vest, English and speech teacher, comments on the pleasure of late garden blooms. Miss Virginia Fertig, history instructor, istandingl is probably visualizing her spring garden. Page eleven

Revealed In Moments Of Leisure Exchanging timely tips and advice to improve their games of golf are Mr. Vernon Peterson, physical education instructor, and Mr. Donald Lindberg, physics and general science teacher. In addition to an enthusiasm for golf, Mr. Peterson is also interested in gymnastics and track as he coaches these sports. Mr. Lindberg has interests along the scientific line, and he helps many students with special science projects. Getting prepared for the rush of students during lunch periods are five very important staff workers. Mrs. Leona Newauist, known to the students as the milk lady , is bringing in a tray of glasses while Mrs. Lillian Corbey and Mrs. Sabina Urbanski are setting the cash register in order. Mrs. Ethel Agnew and Mrs. Esther Wilke are taking care of the ice cream. The students' do-it-yourself method of making ice cream sandwiches is helpful to this staff. It's coffee-break time and three of Murray's busiest people take time out to relax and to enioy fresh cookies and coffee. Mrs. Louise Berg, the school nurse, is a favorite with all students who need her services. Everyone knows Mrs. Ruth Trost and Mrs. Betsy Barnes, Murrray's helpful and friendly oftice clerks, who are responsible for the em- cient routine in The Life We Live . As any Murray student or faculty member knows, it is a rare time when the maintenance staff is not cleaning rooms, polishing windows, or doing one of their many tasks. How- ever, Mr. Walter Miller, Miss Luella Bogue, Mr. James Wil- ford, Mrs. Clara Bloom, Mr. Marvin House, and Mr. Samuel Bollinger take time out from their busy schedule to pose for this picture. The friendly relationship between the maintenance staff and the students certainly makes school life more enjoyable. Page thirteen
