TEACHERS AS CC-STE CENTS BRING RERSCNAL INTEREST TC ATT SUBJECTS At the opening of the school term this year the faculty remained the ssme as the previous year with a few excep- tions. Miss Greenham had come to R. H. S. from the neigh- boring high school at Morocco to act as our Home Economics instructor. As an economy measure, art was dropped from the high school curriculum so we had one less member in the faculty. MR. CLARK presides over the Biology room with infinite dignity. Under his personal direction the Hi-Y or- ganization has become an outstanding factor in the charac- ter building of our high school boys. MISS SPENCER has served faithfully in her position as Dean of Girls for four years. She is the sponsor of the Sunshine Society. MR. STROLE piloted the football team through a very successful year. It is his duty to train the up and coming generation to be good citizens. MISS MYER may be producing s ome future Barrymores, for, under her capable guidance all high school dramatic productions are presented. She too strives to improve the English of the Freshmen. MR. SHRODE, our versatile teacher, drills his pupils in such fields as chem- istry, physics, mathematics, and geography. MISS NEAL is the Junior-Senior English teacher but this does not mean that she has no contact with the under classmen. She rules over the Freshman study hall and assists in sponsoring that TACUTTy HOMER CLARK, A.B. Central Normal Teachers’ College GWENDOLENE SPENCER, A.B. Indiana University G. W. STROLE, A.B.
