FACULTY hile the primary obiective of teachers was to help students learn, they, too, had time to pur- sue their own interests and broaden their educa- tions. Mrs. Berry Niles, English department chairman and Mrs. Mable Pritchett, English teacher, attended the National Council of Eng- lish Teachers in Las Vegas where they served on committees discussing ways to enliven English teaching. Mr. James Ray, English teacher, was a speaker at a session for iournalism teachers at the Annual Conference of Columbia Scholastic Press Association in New York City. Two foreign language teachers had the op- portunity to discover Europe in the summer. Mrs. Doris Bradford, English and Latin teacher, vaca- tioned with her family in Rome and England. Miss Elizabeth Brayton, French teacher, at- tended classes at Alliance Francaise, Paris Uni- versity. While touring Europe, Miss Brayton also visited Germany, Italy, Switzerland, and Hol- land. Mr. Joseph Reynolds, art department chairman, displayed two pieces of sculpture in the Bethlehem Art Competition. A free standing sculpture of brass and bronze and a welded steel construction were exhibited at the Bethle- hem Lutheran Church of Indianapolis November I4-28. Outside activities in which all faculty were in- vited to participate were the annual faculty pic- nic in September at Bridgeport Nutrition Camp and the smorgasboard in May in the school cafeteria.
