ADMINISTRATION ' CONTINUED classes. But if she isnit in the gymnasium you will probably find her in the lab teaching either biology or French. Among her accomplishments this year we find a badminton tournament, intramural basketball games, and the junior class play. G. A. sponsor and adviser to the Del-Hi and to the Green and White staff should be added to this list. Next we greet Miss Nau who is supreme in the commercial department. This department is the main factor in the production of grade A steno- graphers and secretaries. By the term the commercial department, we mean the classes of typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, and business arithmetic. Besides her regular classes she is the sponsor for Commercial Club and the guiding light for the Del-Hi and the Green and White staff. Miss Williams is one of our music instructors. It is her duty to direct all glee clubs, these include clubs for girls and boys and the Choral Club, both Senior and Junior High Orchestras, and the musical operettas. Latin is the subject which we thought would be so hard and turned out to be quite readable under her guidance. Next to bat is Mr. Koppitch. The term 'to bat' fits him exactly because he is our coach, not only in baseball, but in football, basketball and track as well. In regard to studies Mr. Koppitch has charge of the industrial art classes and physical education. Among his accomplishments this year we find intra- mural basketball as well as the usual football, basketball and track teams which he so competently produces. Varsity DH is under his supervision also. Mr. Kibele is the historian in the upper four grades. Under his leadership the products are taught world history, American history, American govern- ment and sociology. In extra-curricular work Mr. Kibele is sponsor for Hi-Y and Senior class, and is assistant coach in basketball. The home economist of this factory is Miss Rhoad. The home economics cottage is her shrine and she is the supreme ruler. Under her the girls are prepared to cook and sew with the best of them, and as a side line she is the helpful adviser of F. H. A. and Girl Reserves. Mr. Ruggles is to the boys as Miss Rhoad is to the girls. It is he who pre- sides over the agricultural department and teaches them all they need to know about farming and the repairing of farm machinery. He is also ruler over the boys' organization, F. F. A. The other music teacher is Mr. Turnbull, who alone is responsible for the band. Every Monday and Wednesday he has the group as a whole and the other days of the week he has individual classes. The two who have undertaken to educate the seventh and eighth grades are Miss Davidson and Mr. Knapp. Miss Davidson also has charge of fresh- man English and Mr. Knapp has charge of freshmen boys, science. Last but not least, we have Miss Swartz who is Mr. Burkholder's secretary and general handy-man. To the pieces of this great machine, the faculty, we the products, the Seniors of the Class of 1940, wish to dedicate this page. ADMINISTRATION f

No annual would be complete without some mention of the faculty. Perhaps you could better understand what I'm about to say if I remind you that the faculty is an important power behind our school. The faculty, then, could be compared to a large machine in a very important factory, which would of course be Delta High School. This factory is noted for its Hrst-class products, the Seniors, which are finished after four years of hard labor. Now we have fourteen parts to this machine. The greatest of these is our superintendent, Mr. Burkholder. It is he who controls the other pieces of this machine in much the same manner as an engineer controls the move- ments of a locomotive. He also presides over two classes of Senior Survey. Mr. Heischman, our principal, is also an important part of our machine. His chief worr , which is reall no worr at all is to teach mathematics and Y Y Y w physics. Too, he presides over assembly programs and is our athletic director. Another member of the assembly line is Mrs. johnson. One usually Hnds her in her room coaching the products on debate or some part in a play, since it is her duty to direct the Senior play as well as to teach English and public speaking, which includes debate. Without a doubt, her great worry is the abuse of the English language we so often hear around school. Next on our list we find Miss Woolery. Much of her time is spent in the new gymnasium where she has charge of all the girls' physical education MISS GOLDA NAU MR. ROLAND MISS JANE MR. CLARENCE MRS. HAZEL MR.
