MR, DALE BARD-- Getout the dissectingkits, stu- dents. Mr. Bard is just getting ready to direct the operation on some form of animal life just out of the formalde- hyde vats. He has turned the biology room into a biologist's paradise by adding several aquariums and plant exhibits. He hopes to have even more advancements for the department next year. A great friend to all Saydel students, Mr. Bard sponsored the Student Council and tried to keep the student body interested in helping Saydel. The assembly for Mr. Roberts was also planned by Mr. Bard and the Student Council. ln future biology classes, Mr. Bard, his animals, and their bones will be interesting more students in the field of science. MRS. MIRIAM MADDEN -- She knows all the angles. One of Sayde1's favorite teachers is Mrs. Madden, seen here with the tools of her trade.

MISS JOAN FROHN-- Who stole my candelabra? Miss Frohn has been at Saydel doing a wonderful job of conducting our Vocal Music Department for several years now. She was especially proud this spring when her girls received a I rating at the State Music Contest. Some of Miss Frohn's efforts were displayed this year in her vocal direction of the musical where she showed more of her varied talents. Next fall Miss Frohn will not be at Saydel for she is going to teach at Leon. Everyone wishes her the best of luck in her new position. MISS MARY ELLEN HOGAN -- Did you Say YOU passed English!I? Miss Hogan is seen here in the usual happy atmos- phere of her Spanish classes. She has introduced foreign language to Saydel with much ease and has made many good friends. Also the librarian, Miss Hogan has fixed up the library and arranged it very well. She spent a great deal of time doing it and everyone certainly appreciates her efforts. Next fall Miss Hogal will also return to Saydel with more Espanol and fun. a1anda2anda3. MR. ROY JENKINS- Ready for the downbeat and Mr. Jenkins is just getting ready to start the band off on another number. Whether it's a march, a fox trot, or a rumba, he gets the band to do its very best.

IYIIXQ IIILIYIXI. LTIDIBIIX 1. '- LYU' L Ulklll L 51 dk-IC ,UUA tests yet! Here is smiling Mr. Geery. That expression means one of two things. Either all of his American Govern- ment students have just flunked one of his quizzes or else he is getting ready to give them one. Really he is very well liked at Saydel. Each year Mr. Geeryhas coached the girls' basket- ball team and his seasons were consistent. How- ever, next fall there will be no girls' team so Mr, Geery will have more time to devote to his tests. But, he will have his baseball team to work with, which should be pretty good as he lost only three Seniors. The new students will not have a chance to meet Mr. Geery right away, but the 1959 Juniors can appreciate him. Good luck to Mr. Geery. MRS. GERTRUDE VANCE-- Now as we move on to our next country, class . . . Mrs. Vance has been a teacher of history and social studies classes at Woodside and Saydel for several years and at one time she was the principal of Wood- side. Mrs. Vance also has served as the girls' counselor and helps them solve problems which ariseg whether they are personal or whether they involve school work. Again this year, Mrs. Vance helped sponsor the Future Nurses Club. When new students enroll next fall, Mrs. Vance will be here to help them get started and to begin a new World History class. this year. MR. DON KIESTER No we didnt do so bad This past fall when the gridiron season was in full swing, our Eagles were in full swing, too. The good scores and plays we had were a result of the coaching of Mr. Kiester. He pushed the boys to win. But he doesn't work on the football field alone. He is also the American History teacher. The students who have taken the course know he isn't rough, only a good teacher. when spring finally came, his track team set several new records even though the rain slowed 'em down. This is Mr. Kiester's last year at Saydel. Next fall he will assume the position of principal at Altoona. His many friends here wish him the best of luck.
