English II, Speech I, Speech II and Dramatics were taught by Roger Younger.

Maintenance Staff— Busy working behind scenes with routine tasks, along with the many special ones that came up each day, the maintenance staff, cooks, and bus drivers did an excellent job keeping things moving along smoothly. Keeping up with a schedule almost planned on split-seconds is not an easy thing to do but the cooperative atti- tudes of the maintenance staff, regarding their responsibilities, and operational details, did much toward making this possible this school year. 16 Ness City High School Cooks (L. to R. ): Esther Delaney, Marcheta Hogsett, Clara Schoenhals, Lena Stecklein.
