Coach C0455 Edwina McCcnchie, M.S. Marion Pierce As no two people are alike, neither are two most thrilling experiences simi- lar. But among these sportsmen, it is only natural that Mrs. Ruth jones would enjoy catching her lirst wall-eyed pike, that Mr. Harry Palmer remembers his first fishing trip up North, and that Miss Edwina McConchie thrilled at seeing Nebraska win a Rose Bowl game. Colonel Lee Sumner will always remember his Hrst day in the Army. Sergeant John Smith remembers nearly slipping over a precipice, and Miss Marion Dagnan recalls nearly sliding over a cliff. As for Miss Marian Pierce, a long distance phone call from Buenos Aires will always be remembered. Mr. James Laude will always thrill to see East high win a basketball tournament. But Mr. Clarence Steve Polaski tops them allg being the father of a boy was the biggest thrill he had! Ruth Jones, B.A E191

Employment Director 1 l '- mfg . .,- 1 Egg i When it comes to choosing a favorite vacation trip for the members of this department, trips to the north woods seem to have quite an attraction. Mr. George Berg and Mr. Oliver Schade both decided that their favorite trips were to just that destination for fishing, and Mr. Harry Telander added that the trip along the Lake Superior shore line makes a varied vacation for him. As for Mr. Clinton Skinner, the trip to Minneapolis on the Burlington Zephyr will always be remembered as a thrilling vacation journey. A trip to Bar Harbor, Maine, and a return trip by boat over the Great Lakes in 1933 will always be a pleasant memory for Mr. Nathan Clow. And, since pleasure trips are out for the dura- tion, Mr. Oscar Olson states that of his recent trips, the one he took through a factory manufacturing war materials was one of the most interesting and informa- tive trips he has ever taken. ix 1 U31 ' -n '-M v . , ' .

But ranging right along side of reading are all types of outdoor amusement, such as Mr. Ray- mond Froehlich's fishing, Miss Vera Hunters golfing, hunting, or hiking, Mr. John Burlend's tennis and bad- minton, Mr. Earl Kiesling's gardening, and Miss Anderson's hiking. Besides reading, Miss Jane Vlilliams re- laxes while playing chess, which Mr. Froehlich also enjoys, along with collecting campaign buttons. I-203 ,M
