Mary Ahnert discusses makeup work with Miss Maurine Motsenbocker, our new government teacher. Bob Miller and Lewis Roberts in a familiar set- ting, backstage. These two boys deserve a lot of thanks for their line, unlailing service all year. When it became necessary to obtain a new government teacher because of the vacancy lett when Mr. Ferris took over the boys' gym classes, the ad- ministration secured Miss Maurine Motsenbocker for the position. Since her arrival at P. H. S., Miss Motsenbocker has made a great success ot her gov- ernment classes. They have been made more interesting through the several iield trips and interviews she has arranged. She helped us struggle through the course through her counseling after school hours. The two stage managers, Bob Miller and Lewis Roberts, were always on hand when we needed them, for plays, parties and other similar occasions, whenever their services were needed. .12.

One way this objective was accomplished was through instructive boxing. The roughouse method gave way to the more scientific way of self defense. However, indoor or outdoor exercise had its purpose in build- ing good American citizens. A familiar scene around school is that of the usual noon rush in the cafeteria.
