Proudly We Declicate Our First Annual To You-Mr. Donald E. Hendren In his job as Dramatic coach, Mr. Hendren does everything from fitting costumes to painting sets. Bob Foust has one of the capes from Cinderella fitted for him. Mr. Hendren, a native Tarheelian, received his Bachelor of Science degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he majored in English, French, and Education. His first teach- ing experience was in Danville, Virginia, as French, English, and Dramatics instructor. Mr. Hendren moved to Memphis in March, 1958, and began teaching at Oakhaven in September, 1958. A mem- ber of Grace Methodist Church, Mr. Hendren serves as teacher of the Young Adult Class and Director of the Choir. Most Oakhaven students know well Mr. Don Hendren, instructor of English. One of Oakhaven's favorites, Mr. Hendren is a demanding but inspir- ing teacher, who makes the study of English a pleasure. However, his contributions to our school do not stop inside the classroom. As Dramatics coach, Mr. Hendren has given endless hours to- ward making our productions successful. ln addi- tion he serves as Hi-Y adviser and Hi-Y basketball coach. Mr. Hendren is known for his ready wit, sin- cerity, and true interest in each student and the entire student body. He is willing to give students help and advice in almost any situation or under- taking. Oakhaven can only begin to repay him with the deepest appreciation in which this dedication is made. It might not have been a particularly fitting gift for a teacher, but few of us will ever forget the look on Mr. Hendren's face when he received his Christmas present, a fwell you know what it wasl, from his homeroom.
